Do you often feel frozen with anxiety? Are the stresses of every day life bringing you down and maybe even making you ill? You are not alone. Explorer Belinda Kirk has experienced all that and champions adventure as a way to wellbeing – and a way to becoming more courageous in our every day lives. She joins Anxiety Advantage podcast host Yang-May Ooi to talk about how adventure is not just for men with beards clogged with ice but for everyone, most especially any of us struggling with anxiety. She shares her personal story of being frozen with anxiety a lot of the time as a teenager and how a Duke of Edinburgh adventure changed her life.

Please note
I am not an expert on anxiety. I have no medical or therapy-type qualifications. I am a writer – and like many people, I have struggled with anxiety. My purpose in these podcasts is to explore with curiosity how these very human feelings affect all our lives. Views expressed by my guests are entirely their own and do not represent my views. These podcasts come out of my personal experience and perspective – and I do not claim to speak for everyone who may be living with anxiety. The content of these podcasts is for informational purposes only. If you are affected by anything in these podcasts, please seek the advice of your doctor or other qualified professional.
