FVCK ANXIETY: Tools for a Woman's Freedom
Fvck Anxiety is a podcast for women who look like they have it together on the outside… but feel anxious, overwhelmed, and disconnected on the inside.
We call it stress.
We call it being busy.
We call it motherhood.
We call it responsibility.
But underneath it is often something deeper.
Fear we were never taught how to understand.
When fear gets pushed down, it doesn’t disappear.
It becomes anxiety.
And when anxiety goes misunderstood, it slowly turns into control — control of schedules, outcomes, expectations, and everything around us.
Over time, that control disconnects women from themselves.
Their creativity.
Their joy.
Their intuition.
Their freedom.
Hosted by a mother who has lived this pattern firsthand, Fvck Anxiety explores the real root of anxiety in women — and why anxiety might not be the enemy we’ve been taught it is.
Through honest conversations, real-life stories, metaphors, and practical tools, this podcast helps women understand:
• the connection between fear, anxiety, and control
• why high-functioning women often experience anxiety
• how motherhood and responsibility amplify emotional pressure
• how suppressed emotions create anxiety in the body
• how to rebuild a healthy relationship with fear and emotions
This podcast is for women who are tired of pretending they’re fine and ready to understand what’s really 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.

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 real self-care looks like—and why saying yes to yourself is the ultimate act of courage
