0:27.2	Hello, dear listener and welcome back to owning it the anxiety podcast with me, your host and author Caroline Forin. My guest this week is all the way from
0:32.5	Portland in the US, Dr. Leah Katz. She's a clinical psychologist and the author of Gutsy, her new book. And for this

1:44.9	It is my pleasure. I came across you on social media and I just was really taken with your content and the way that you can articulate things. I'm not an expert and I've always seen myself as
