Summary

In this episode, Dr. Henry Cloud presents a systematic approach to identifying anxiety sources through targeted self-reflection questions originally developed for a CEO client. Dr. Cloud's detailed framework of questions is designed to help listeners pinpoint specific triggers of anxiety, including external stressors, relationship dynamics, internal pressures, and unresolved trauma. Dr. Cloud also addresses a write-in question about "rebooting life" after leaving a toxic relationship, offering strategies for building supportive community, creating beneficial structure, evaluating past patterns, and developing healing practices. The call-in portion features discussions about establishing boundaries with demanding family members and finding effective couples therapy for attachment and trauma issues in marriage. Throughout the program, Dr. Cloud provides practical guidance on anxiety management, boundary setting, and relationship repair techniques accessible to listeners facing similar challenges in their own lives.

You deserve relationships that lift you up, not wear you down. If you're feeling exhausted by toxic people or unsure how to handle difficult behaviors, Dr. Henry Cloud is here to help. His free guide, "10 Strategies for Dealing with Toxic People," will show you how to recognize harmful behaviors like gaslighting and narcissism, how to confidently set boundaries, and how to finally take back your peace.
