And How Does That Make You Feel?
Welcome to And How Does That Make You Feel? — an AWKN podcast that ungatekeeps what really happens in therapy. No fluff. No psycho-jargon. Just straight-talking insights from inside the therapist’s chair.

This isn’t therapy. But it might just be the next best thing.

EP 229 — How to Stop Imagining Worst-Case Scenarios
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
When uncertainty rises, the mind often jumps straight to the worst possible outcome. But constantly imagining disaster doesn’t prepare you — it drains you. In this episode, we explore why your brain defaults to worst-case thinking, how it fuels anxiety, and practical ways to interrupt the spiral so you can stay grounded in reality rather than living in imagined futures.
