In today’s episode, I’m answering our first listener question from Anna, a fellow Zen Friend, who’s struggling with her own anxiety triggered by her daughter’s anxiety.

✨ Here’s what we’ll cover in this episode:

Why your anxiety makes sense – Understanding the emotional connection between you and your child.
The Anxiety Feedback Loop – How your child’s anxiety can trigger yours, and how to break the cycle.
Practical strategies – Tips for managing your anxiety so you can better support your child.

I’ll also share relatable stories and practical tips for lowering anxiety in your home. 🙌

✨ What’s Bringing Me More Zen:
Stay tuned until the end of the episode when I share What’s Bringing Me More Zen—Here’s a hint: it’s related to Little House on the Prairie! If you ever loved the books or television series then you are sure to love this!
