Ever feel like the world’s designed to keep you anxious… and stuck?
You’re not alone. And today’s guest—Martha Beck, best-selling author and world-renowned life coach—is here to show us a gentler way forward.
In this episode, Martha shares the soul-soothing, science-backed* strategies from her latest book, “Beyond Anxiety: Curiosity, Creativity, and Finding Your Life’s Purpose.” We dive deep into why anxiety is on the rise (and what you can do to quiet it), how to live in a “circle world” even when life feels like a box, and the simple actions that unlock your purpose—no hustle required.
🎙️ Inside this conversation: 🌿 How your environment (yes, even your kitchen counters!) can either fuel anxiety or bring calm
🌱 Why modern life is like living in a box… and how to create your own circles of peace, creativity, and connection
🧠 The real reason your brain is stuck in the anxiety spiral (it’s not your fault!)
💡 The magic of “sense drenching” and how it can melt anxiety in minutes
💛 Why your life’s purpose isn’t something you have to find—it’s something you live, one step at a time
Martha’s insights are more than just tips—they’re an invitation to come home to yourself. To swap out overwhelm for curiosity. To finally create the calm and purpose you know* you’re craving.
Because when we declutter the noise and listen to our soul’s quiet whispers? That’s where real peace—and real purpose—live.
