The Anxiety Compass Podcast
Welcome to The Anxiety Compass Podcast, where we help you navigate the messy, magical, and maddening world of anxiety. We believe anxiety isn’t a defect but a teacher — a compass pointing you back to your True North.
Hosted by Clinical Nutritionists Sammy Barnett (author of Anxiety: The Best Teacher You Never Asked For) and Natalie Antoine, this show goes beyond quick fixes to explore the real roots of anxiety. Each week we explore a different point of the compass:
🌿 Chemical & Nutritional
💬 Emotional
⚡ Nervous System
🌀 Hormonal
🌍 Environmental
💪 Physical
✨ Spiritual
Through personal stories, humour, and practical tools, we show how anxiety is not a problem to “fix” but an invitation to slow down, listen, and reconnect with yourself. If you’re ready to see anxiety in a new light, learn real-life strategies, and feel less alone in the messy middle, this podcast is for you.

STOP Waiting for Bali, START Finding Magic In The Mundane
When life gets overwhelming, it’s tempting to believe the only way to heal is to escape... book a retreat, run away to a spa, or fly off on holiday. But here’s the truth: healing doesn’t just happen when you leave your life… it happens when you live it.
In this episode, Sammy & Natalie unpack why the small, everyday choices matter more than the once-a-year getaway. We share:
✨ How to create moments of healing in your daily routine
✨ Why chasing “the perfect holiday reset” often leaves us more disconnected
✨ Practical tools for weaving calm, nourishment, and mindful habits into ordinary life
✨ Personal stories of messy, mundane healing that will make you laugh (and nod along)
Get ready for a refreshing reframe that proves you don’t need to run away to heal... you just need to start right where you are.
