Anxiety, Identity & the Lies We Believe – with Dr. John Delony

Send us a text

This week on Who Gave Jeff Allen a Podcast?, Jeff and Carollynn sit down with best-selling author, mental health expert, and nationally syndicated host Dr. John Delony for a brutally honest and powerfully freeing conversation.

Together, they dig into the stories we tell ourselves—the ones that keep us stuck in shame, anxiety, fear, and broken relationships. Dr. Delony shares his own journey from panic attacks and burnout to freedom, clarity, and emotional health. If you’ve ever struggled with being the “hero,” the “fixer,” or just the one who keeps it all together, this episode will speak directly to your soul.

Topics Covered:

• Why anxiety isn’t just a diagnosis—it’s a signal
• The power of replacing lies with truth
• Jeff’s take on therapy (and John’s take on Jeff’s take)
• Healing generational trauma—and why silence isn’t strength
• How we can be free to feel, fail, and finally rest

This episode will make you laugh, think, (and yes, again, maybe cry)—but it will definitely challenge the way you see your own story.
