FVCK ANXIETY: For High Functioning Women Ready to Heal Anxiety with Hypnotherapy
FVCK Anxiety is a podcast for the woman who looks completely fine on the outside.
She shows up for everyone. She holds it all together. She answers “I’m good” on autopilot.
But inside, she’s white-knuckling every single day. Overthinking everything. Waiting for the next panic attack. Controlling her schedule, her relationships, and every outcome she can get her hands on — just to feel okay.
That’s high-functioning anxiety. And most women living with it have never heard those words applied to them.
This podcast exists for her.
FVCK Anxiety explores the real root of anxiety in women — the fear that got pushed down, the control that took over, and the nervous system that never learned it was safe to rest.
Through honest conversations, real-life stories, and practical tools, each episode helps you understand:
• Why overthinking, panic attacks, and the need to control everything are connected
• How high-functioning anxiety shows up in mothers, women, and high-achievers
• What nervous system regulation actually looks like in real life
• How to interrupt anxiety in real time — not just manage it
• What it takes to stop letting fear run the show
Hosted by Sari Cowsert — a mother, intuitive hypnotherapist, and someone who has lived this pattern firsthand.
This podcast is for women who are exhausted from pretending they’re fine — and ready to understand what’s actually happening inside them.
Because when a woman learns how to understand her anxiety instead of suppressing it…
She doesn’t just change her own life.
She changes the emotional inheritance of her daughters.

Ep.44 Why Asking for Help Isn’t Weak Shit, with Krista Rizzo
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This isn’t another pep talk about self-care or “finding balance.” It’s an exposed nerve for anyone barely holding it together, clothes still on from work, kids screaming, marriage hanging by a thread, and a toxic job eating you alive. Krista Rizzo hits the floor—literally—and lays it out: No one’s coming to help until you ask. You’re not failing because you can’t keep up. You’re crumbling because you won’t stop pretending you have to.
On this episode of The Uncharted Way, we get raw with Krista Rizzo—a certified life coach, TEDx speaker, author, and host of the Why Am I Yelling Podcast. If you feel burned out, suffocating under perfectionism, or just tired of carrying everyone else’s world on your back, this conversation is your permission slip: you’re not crazy, you’re not broken, you’re just buried under a story that’s overdue for rewriting.
If you’re ready to stop apologizing for needing more—more rest, more support, more truth—this episode cuts past the fluff. We get into identity, fear, and how to finally give yourself permission to play big, even when it costs relationships or shakes up old family patterns. Stuck and burned out? You’re not alone. But you don’t have to stay there.
💡 What You’ll Learn in This Episode
- How to recognize when your “normal” is actually silent suffering—and why it’s so common for women
- Practical ways to break free from burnout before it shatters your health, relationships, and dreams
- Why asking for help—and receiving it—can be the most rebellious act of self-love
- How to stop apologizing for who you are (even if who you are is loud, messy, opinionated, and allergic to “perfect”)
- Tools for finding yourself beyond the boxes and expectations handed down by family, work, or culture
- What real self-care looks like—and why saying yes to yourself is the ultimate act of courage
✨ Key Takeaway
