Summary

Welcome back to season 5! For this episode I want to introduce you to my brand new. book - NAKED: Ten Truths To Change Your Life. It's what I've been working on since wrapping up the last season. It's all about the power of vulnerability as a tool to create a calmer life. In it I explore ten sometimes uncomfortable truths about our thoughts feelings and behaviours that cause us stress and discomfort and set about finding an alternative path. For this introductory episode, I wanted to share some of my favourite chapter which is all about what I call The Vulnerability Paradox. I do hope you find it helpful and if you want to buy a copy of NAKED, you can get it here on Amazon.

0:25.2	The Anxiety Podcast, with me, Caroline Forin. You will know me as obviously the host of this podcast and the author
0:31.8	of owning it or own it, or own it if you're in the US or Canada. The Confidence Kit, which is my second book,
0:36.8	or again in the US that was called You Got Canada. The Confidence Kit, which is my second book, or again in the US
0:37.7	that was called You Got This. And my third book, which is just out now, is called Naked Ten Truths to
0:44.2	Change Your Life. I am so excited. It's finally out. It was massively delayed with the pandemic.
