Dr. Wendy Suzuki: ...the gifts that come from anxiety

Before the pandemic, it was estimated that 90% of the population was affected by some degree of anxiety. So, it’s not hard to believe that the percentage of anxiety sufferers is probably even higher than that right now. Our guest on this episode, neuroscientist Dr. Wendy Suzuki says anxiety is not only essential for our survival, it’s also a key component in living our best lives. Dr. Suzuki is the bestselling author of the book, Healthy Brain, Happy Life, and the new book, GOOD ANXIETY: Harnessing the Power of the Most Misunderstood Emotion. ****** Thanks to our sponsors of this episode! --> O.R.G.
