"What If I'm the Exception?" — Your Panic to Peace Questions, Answered
What if I'm the exception? That's one of the questions I hear the most, and it's exactly why I'm jumping on for this quick, impromptu episode. I've been getting so many questions about Panic to Peace, and instead of answering them one by one, I figured it'd be easiest, and most helpful, to just answer them all here. Quick disclaimer: Colin is asleep in the next room and Marbles is doing his own thing next to me, so if I sound like I'm whisper-talking or you hear a plastic bag crinkle in the background, that's why. In this episode I'm answering the questions I get asked the most: what if I've been struggling for years, what if I've already tried everything, what if I'm in therapy or have already done therapy, what if my anxiety is more specific (driving, health, travel, or something else), what if I have a chronic illness or medical condition in the mix, what if I can't make the live calls, what if I'm scared to spend the money and it doesn't work, what if I really am the exception, and what if I want to join but I'm just anxious about actually doing it. If you've been on the fence about Panic to Peace, or you've had one of these exact questions running through your head, this episode is for you PANIC TO PEACE STARTS OCTOBER 2026.

254: What If I Can't Recover From Anxiety, Panic Disorder & Agoraphobia?
What if the story you've been telling yourself isn't actually true? For years, Shannon was convinced she was the exception and that her anxiety was different, that she'd tried everything and nothing was ever going to work, and that panic and agoraphobia were just going to be part of her life forever. Sound familiar? In this episode, Shannon breaks down why "what if I can't recover" is a story anxiety loves to create, how that story quietly shapes everything you do (and don't do), and why your anxiety isn't as "special" or "different" as it feels. She also shares real messages from past Panic to Peace students who spent years believing recovery wasn't possible for them and are now back to driving, traveling, and living lives they once thought were completely out of reach. If you've ever thought "I've tried it all and nothing works," this episode is your permission to ask a different question: not what if I can't, but what if I can? P.S. Panic to Peace opens September 22nd and starts October 4th: 10 weeks, live, with Shannon every step of the way. If you've been on the fence for months (or years), this is your sign.

253: Recovered & Rambling: We're back & Talking the Raw Honesty of Recovery, Life, & Postpartum
What if no recovery is ever perfect and whatever you're feeling right now is actually normal? It's been a few months since our last Recovered & Rambling, and we're catching up on everything: the postpartum ups and downs nobody prepares you for, the hormone rollercoaster, feeling alone even when you're surrounded, and the realization that "high-functioning" can quietly hide a lot of struggle. We get real about what recovery actually looks like when life doesn't slow down for it, bad trips, when to push forward, learning to trust your gut, and what's coming next for Panic to Peace. If you've ever felt like you're "fine" on the outside but not on the inside, this one's for you. You are not alone. P.S. Panic to Peace is opening its doors the last week of September and this will be the only round until late 2027, so if you've been on the fence, this is your sign to join us.

252: What Are Intrusive Thoughts and Why Do They Feel So Disturbing? with OCD Therapist Katey Olson
Have you ever had a thought pop into your head that felt so disturbing, so out of character, that you immediately wondered what it says about you? You are not broken. And you are not alone. Shannon sits down with OCD and anxiety therapist Katey Olson to finally break down intrusive thoughts in a way that actually makes sense. They cover what intrusive thoughts are, why some people get so stuck in them, and why trying to push them away or figure them out only makes things worse. They also get into the overlap between anxiety and OCD — including how to tell the difference, why the treatment isn't exactly the same, and what inference-based CBT is for the people who aren't ready or willing to do exposure therapy. Plus, the one thing that matters more than getting rid of intrusive thoughts entirely: your relationship with them. If intrusive thoughts have ever made you question your safety, your sanity, or who you are — this episode is going to help.

251: Panic Attacks, Near Death, and a Song 12 Years in the Making: P2P Student Tom’s Story
What does real recovery from panic disorder actually look like? Today I'm joined by Tom: a musician, Panic to Peace student, and one of the most genuine humans I've had on this podcast. Tom's story isn't a cinematic highlight reel of overnight transformation. It's honest, messy, and exactly what recovery actually looks like. At 28, Tom had a near death experience that triggered debilitating panic attacks and completely derailed his life. For years, freeways, movies, and even simple daily tasks felt impossible. Then he did the work, slowly, consistently, one small step at a time. And now at 40, he's about to release the song he almost never got to record. We talk about what finally clicked for him, the blind faith it takes to keep going when progress feels invisible, why flare ups are part of the process and not a sign you're failing, and what it felt like to get on a freeway, drive four exits, and know everything had changed. This one is for anyone who wonders if recovery is actually possible. It is. Tom is proof. September 2026 is your last chance to enroll in Panic to Peace until September 2027.

250: Hills I Will Die on as Someone who Struggled with Anxiety, Panic Disorder, & Agoraphobia for 15 Years
Have you ever been told to "just face your fears" or "regulate your nervous system," only to feel more dysregulated and more like a failure when it didn't work? I spent 15 years in the trenches of panic disorder and agoraphobia, and I heard it all. Now, I’m sitting down to share the "hills I would die on," the non-negotiable truths about recovery that I’ve learned from my own life and from working with hundreds of students. We’re moving past the black-and-white, "all-or-nothing" advice you see on Instagram and getting into the nuance of what actually brings long-term peace. DOORS OPEN IN SEPTEMBER FOR PANIC TO PEACE.

249: Why Agoraphobia & Panic Disorder Isn’t Actually About Places
If you feel like you can’t go into grocery stores, drive on the highway, or sit in a restaurant without spiraling, you probably think those places are the problem. For years, I was convinced that traffic was my enemy and being far from home was "dangerous." But in this episode, I’m sharing the realization that changed everything for me: Panic disorder and agoraphobia aren't actually about places, they are about the fear of fear. I’m diving deep into why our brains create these false associations and how we can start to break the cycle of avoidance. If your world has felt like it's shrinking, this episode is for you.

248: What Nervous System Regulation Actually Means (And What Everyone Gets Wrong) with Sarah Levy
Are you doing nervous system regulation wrong or have you just been sold the wrong version of it? I sat down with somatic therapist and nervous system regulation coach Sarah Levy to finally break this down in a way that actually makes sense. We're talking about what regulation really means, why the goal was never to feel calm all the time, and why so many people feel like they're failing at this work even when they're trying so hard. We also get into the somatic side of things — what it looks like to reconnect with your body when body sensations feel scary, why your favorite grounding tools might not be working, and the one place Sarah always recommends starting when everything else feels like too much. This one is practical, validating, and so incredibly needed.

247: Mistakes I Made in Anxiety Recovery So You Don’t Have To
Have you ever felt like you’re working harder at recovery than anyone else, yet you’re still not getting anywhere? In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on the mistakes I made during my own journey. For a long time, I thought that if I just "tried harder," I’d get better faster. But I eventually learned that anxiety recovery isn't about effort—it’s about the approach. I’m sharing these pitfalls today so you can stop blaming yourself and start finding a clearer, more compassionate path forward.

246: The Perfectionism Cycle: Why Your "Hustle" Leads to Burnout with Shailyn Waites
Do you ever feel like you’re working at 110% capacity, yet you still end your day feeling like a failure because you didn't check every single box on your list? I know that feeling of being "stuck in the do" all too well. It’s a relentless cycle where we try to out-perform our insecurities, only to end up emotionally and physically exhausted. In this episode, I sit down with Shailyn Waites to deconstruct the Perfectionism-Shame-Burnout Cycle. Shai explains that perfectionism is often a defense mechanism—a way to gain control when we feel unsafe or unworthy. Whether you’re a retired athlete, a corporate climber, or someone navigating the high-pressure world of anxiety recovery, this conversation will help you understand why "trying harder" is usually the thing keeping you stuck.

245: Bridges, Traffic, and Left Turns: Why Driving Anxiety Isn’t Actually About Driving (And How to Fix It)
Have you ever found yourself taking a 20-minute detour just to avoid a single bridge, or white-knuckling the steering wheel at a red light, convinced you won’t "make it" until it turns green? I spent years in that exact cycle. Living in Maine, I was surrounded by highway exits that were only two miles apart—yet even those two minutes felt like absolute torture. I would obsessively tell myself, "I just need to make it to the next exit," only to pass it and start the mental spiral all over again. If you’ve been avoiding certain routes, mapping out every pull-over spot, or needing a "safe person" in the car just to get to the store, this conversation is for you. In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on why driving feels so life-limiting right now. Spoiler alert: It’s not actually about your ability to drive. It’s about the fear of being stuck, trapped, and unable to handle the anxiety if it shows up. Whether you struggle with highways, planes, or trains, the core mechanics are the same, and once you understand them, you can start taking the healthy steps to get your freedom back.

244: Recovered & Rambling: I'm Back (Sort Of): Shannon's Birth Story & Postpartum Update
How is he a month old already?! I genuinely don't know. It has been over a month since I've sat down at this mic, and even longer since I've sat down with Brittany, and in this episode we're finally catching up on everything, my labor and delivery with Colin, the scary shoulder dystocia moment that I will genuinely never get out of my head, and what this last month of postpartum has actually been like. I get into how different this whole experience has felt going from one kid to two versus the sheer terror of going from zero to one. We talk about breastfeeding and oversupply (again) and sleep deprivation and the very real challenge of trying to take care of a newborn while also making sure Amelia doesn't feel like she got completely deprioritized. I also get honest about the boredom of these early newborn weeks, the identity shift, and how even a solid relationship gets tested when a baby enters the picture. And through basically all of it, I keep coming back to the same thing I talk about in my own recovery and with so many of you: control. What I can't control, what I don't need to control, and just how much more peaceful it is when I actually let that go. This one's a ramble in the best way. Grab your coffee, or your baby carrier, and let's catch up. Also in this episode: an update on my coaching community and Panic to Peace, which is opening again in a couple of months! Just a little reminder, even though I've been quieter on social, I'm still so here for you in all the ways that matter.

243: Why You Can’t Ask for Help: Hyper-Independence with Kelsey Wood
Do you pride yourself on being the capable one? The one who handles the house, the kids, and the career without ever asking for a hand? For a long time, I wore my independence like a badge of honor. But as I’ve learned through my own journey and therapy, there is a big difference between being independent and being hyper-independent. In today’s episode, I’m joined by therapist Kelsey Wood. Kelsey specializes in childhood trauma and works specifically with women who feel like they have to do it all on their own. We’re digging into the "Big V" word—vulnerability—and why, for so many of us, letting people in feels physically unsafe. If you are exhausted, burnt out, and tired of being "the strong one," this episode is for you.

242: When Anxiety Robs You: Navigating Grief, Anger, and the "Small Life" Trap
Have you ever looked at your life and wondered, "How did things get so small?" I know that feeling all too well. I know the sting of looking at the calendar and seeing all the weddings, vacations, and job opportunities you’ve said "no" to. It feels like anxiety hasn't just been a struggle; it feels like it has robbed you. Robbed you of years, of confidence, and of the version of yourself that used to feel so free. In this episode, we’re talking about something that doesn't get nearly enough space in the recovery conversation: Grief. We’re diving into the sadness, the anger, and the "un-fairness" of it all. But more importantly, I’m sharing why this grief is actually a sign of how much you care—and how you can start moving forward without leaving yourself behind.

Have you ever sat there analyzing your own brain, wondering, "Why is this happening to me? Why does my anxiety feel so much more intense than everyone else's?" I know that spiral all too well. It’s easy to feel like you’re just "broken" or genetically "screwed," but the truth is usually much more complex—and much more compassionate—than that. In today’s episode, I’m joined by therapist Debbie Missud to talk about the biopsychosocial factors that actually contribute to anxiety. We aren't here to put you in a box or give you a label. We’re here to help you understand your origins so you can stop the self-blame and start responding to your body in a way that actually helps.

Have you ever spent money on something that promised to stop a panic attack in its tracks and felt completely let down when it didn't? Same. We are back for another Recovered and Rambling, and this one is equal parts comical and genuinely helpful. We are rating the most popular anxiety tools from our own recoveries — what actually helped, what was a total waste of money, and what the wellness industry is getting completely wrong. From breathing exercises and thought challenging to quick fixes, safety behaviors, distraction, and more — nothing is off limits and nothing is sugarcoated. Because when you're in the trenches, you'll try anything. And someone should have warned you about some of this stuff sooner. This is Part 1 and yes, there is homework.

239: How Much Does Your Mindset Actually Matter in Anxiety Recovery?
Have you ever felt like your brain is just fundamentally "broken "and like everyone else can recover from anxiety, but you’re the one glitch in the system? I’ve been there. For over a decade, my mindset was absolute garbage. I didn't just have anxiety; I believed I was anxiety. I thought I was born this way, doomed by genetics, and that recovery simply wasn’t an option for me. In this episode, we’re diving into the messy, often frustrating topic of mindset. We see two extremes online: one side tells you to "just think positive" (which feels dismissive and infuriating), and the other says mindset doesn't matter because it's purely a nervous system issue. I don't agree with either. Mindset isn't a magical cure, you can't logic your way out of a panic attack, but it is the absolute gatekeeper of your recovery. It determines whether you get back up after a setback or if you stay stuck in the "square one" trap.

238: 30 Years of Panic and Agoraphobia — Former P2P student Lauri's Story of Finally Finding Her Way Out
What does it actually look like to spend 30 years hiding panic disorder and agoraphobia from everyone around you and then finally decide you're done? In this episode, I sit down with Lauri, a former Panic to Peace student and current community member, for one of the most honest and moving recovery conversations yet. Lauri's story started with a panic attack at a client dinner that she didn't even recognize as a panic attack. What followed was three decades of a world that kept getting smaller... avoided highways, relying on safe people, safety behaviors, and a level of shame so deep she hid it from the colleagues she worked alongside for 20 years. Lauri opens up about what it felt like to hit her lowest point, why she stayed stuck for so long, and what finally shifted when she found a community of people who actually understood. She talks about her three C's of healing, the small steps that led to big ones, and what it felt like to take a five-day trip and think... I'm finally living again.
