Summary

The first episode with Dr. Ellen Vora was so well received that we had to bring her back on for part two. She and Melissa explore both the practical and spiritual aspects of managing anxiety. Ellen shares her insights on how moving with intention can shift your perspective on life and how, in moments of grief, such as after her mother’s passing, she found a profound sense of inner knowing and spiritual opening that reshaped her life. They dive deep into the difference between true and false anxiety as Melissa opens up about some of her own experiences with anxiety, particularly how she’s learned to challenge the stories she tells herself. Ellen also touches on how anxiety affects children and partners and how we can support those in our lives who struggle with it. This conversation highlights the importance of slowing down, giving kids the space to be bored, and setting up routines that prevent anxiety before it starts.
