Anxiety Reset Podcast
In this episode, Georgie gets personal - sharing a life update that's been 18 months in the making. Between time in Bali, her wedding in Italy, and working through a SIBO diagnosis, something bigger has been unfolding underneath it all: a slow, sometimes painful evolution away from an old identity and into a new one. Georgie talks candidly about what it feels like to know a shift is coming long before you're ready to make it - and why clinging to the old way isn't a failure, it's part of the process. If you've ever felt yourself outgrowing a version of you that used to feel safe, this one's...

In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Sarah McKay — Oxford-trained neuroscientist, educator, and author, whose work is helping us better understand the female brain through every stage of life. Together, we unpack what neuroscience actually tells us about women’s brains, from motherhood and matrescence to perimenopause, while busting some of the biggest myths that still shape the way women think about themselves. If you've ever questioned your memory, your focus, or wondered whether your brain is "changing for the worse," this conversation will leave you feeling informed, reassured, and far...

In this episode, Georgie shares 21 things she's noticed after a decade of anxiety work with high-achieving women - the patterns, the myths, and the truths that don't usually get said out loud. From why a diagnosis often never comes, to why successful people are so often anxious, to why "calming down" can actually backfire - this episode is a wide-lens look at what anxiety really is, and isn't. You'll hear why suppression drives more anxiety than stress does, why the goal was never to eliminate anxiety but to understand its message, and why softness - not self-criticism - is what actually...

In this episode, I’m joined by the wonderful Olga Newman, whose unique approach to facial massage, fascia release, and breathwork completely changed my perspective on what’s possible when it comes to ageing naturally. I was lucky enough to have one of her treatments before we recorded this conversation, and I honestly felt all the tension in my jaw and neck melt away. Together, we explore how years of anxiety and chronic stress can leave their mark on our faces, why shallow breathing and tension patterns matter more than we realise, and the powerful ways breathwork, fascia release, and...

In this episode, Georgie shares two pieces of news she's been so excited to tell you about. First, the story of how she got engaged, all of it, start to finish. And then something she never expected to be talking about here: after two years of quietly pushing through fatigue, headaches and brain fog... the kind of background noise you learn to ignore. She's finally found the root cause! She's already feeling clearer, calmer and less inflamed, and she's sharing everything: the symptoms she'd learned to push past, how she got to the bottom of it, and what's changed since - in case it helps you...

In this episode, I’m joined once again by the wonderful Nat Kringoudis — Chinese medicine practitioner, entrepreneur, and host of The Wellness Collective podcast. Together, we separate wellness fact from fiction and have a whole lot of fun unpacking the trends that seem to take over our feeds every few months. From peptides and protein to fasting and forgotten favourites like bone broth and turmeric, we explore which wellness hacks are genuinely worth your time and which ones might be creating more confusion than benefit. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by conflicting health advice, this...

In this episode, Georgie makes the case for something most of us have been taught to fight: the part of you that second-guesses, hesitates, and quietly wonders if you've got it wrong. We tend to treat self-doubt as the enemy - the thing standing between us and the unshakeable confidence we're told we should have. But what if that doubting voice is also where your empathy lives? What if the ability to check yourself, to wonder how you're landing on others, to consider that you might not be the most important person in the room, is part of what makes you trustworthy and kind? Georgie explores...

In this episode, I’m joined by our wonderful breathwork facilitator, Casey May Aubin. Casey has been guiding the breathwork sessions inside the Calm Woman Collective for well over a year now, and I’m so excited to finally have her on the podcast to share more of her story, wisdom, and approach to healing. Casey opens up about a pivotal moment in her life when everything she thought was certain suddenly changed. What followed was an unexpected journey of curiosity, self-discovery, and ultimately finding the work she was meant to do. We also dive into a unique style of breathwork called...

In this episode, Georgie explores why you can be a capable, composed woman one moment - and feel like a small, frightened child the next. You know your boss probably isn't angry. You know, logically, that you've done nothing wrong. And yet your whole system floods with that old, sinking sense of being in trouble. Georgie unpacks what's actually happening: in those moments, your subconscious mind time travels you back to a younger version of yourself - one who once learned to believe something painful about who she is. It isn't a flaw in your character or a lack of willpower. It's an old...

In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Golsa Gholampour - medical doctor, author, and passionate advocate for helping women understand the connection between the brain, body, and emotional wellbeing. Golsa's journey has taken her from growing up in Iran, to building a new life abroad, to experiencing burnout that ultimately led her back to her deeper purpose. Through her work, she explores the neuroscience behind empathy, forgiveness, self-compassion, and resilience, helping us understand why letting go isn't just a spiritual concept - it's something that can profoundly impact our brains,...
info_outlineIn this episode, I’m joined by eczema and skin specialist Zoe Hunt. If you’ve experienced the anxiety, stress, and loss of confidence that can come with chronic skin issues — or you’re a parent supporting a child through it — this conversation will feel deeply validating and eye-opening.
We explore the emotional toll of skin conditions, especially for parents, and the often-overlooked connection between the nervous system, stress, and the body’s ability to heal. Zoe brings a compassionate, whole-body approach that goes far beyond just “fixing the skin.”
If you’ve been stuck in cycles of frustration, trying everything and still not seeing lasting change, this episode will help you see things in a completely new way.
We talk about:
- How a skin specialist naturopath finally solved her own child's chronic eczema
- How watching your child suffer in their skin creates a specific kind of parental anxiety that’s hard to put into words
- How stress and nervous system dysregulation in the parent can directly impact a child’s skin and immune response
- Why “fixing the skin” is often the last piece — and what needs to come first
