Solo Ep: I'm Back from My Business Trip to Amsterdam! Working mom life, my anxiety leaving Archie, and how I enjoyed Amsterdam

Send us a text


I am back from my business trip to Amsterdam and wanted to talk
about how it went! In my last solo episode, I talked a bit about
how my anxiety (PPA) was really bad when I first started
traveling for work again after being a mom and how I used
exposure therapy and medication to improve. 

A little context if you’re new here: I’m a working mom and work
for a big tech company called Cisco Systems doing marketing and
video work. I’ve been a working mom since Archie was a
newborn. 

In this episode I talk about:


My anxiety, is it still postpartum anxiety? Or just
generalised anxiety disorder?

The medication I'm on for panic disorder

Managing intrusive thoughts while I was away

How I managed my emotions and anxiety while away

How I enjoyed Amsterdam

How I MC'd an event for the first time
