Anxiety & Dating: Two Different Perspectives Ft. Lilly Van Alsburg

from My Verbal Journal: Let’s Chat · host Maci Jones

My best friend Lilly Van Alsburg is back on the pod, and this episode is all hot takes. We've known each other since we were 8, but we could not be more different when it comes to anxiety and dating. We break down how our anxiety has shown up in totally different ways — social anxiety vs. overthinking, perfectionism, etc. from years of competitive sports, therapy trial-and-error, and what actually helped each of us manage it. Then we get into dating: our opposite approaches, the worst first date I've ever been on, and a rapid-fire red flag vs. deal breaker game where we don't always agree. Two friends, two very different perspectives — grab your coffee for this one. 🎙️Follow:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Personal IG: @macileejones⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Podcast IG: @myverbaljournal.letschat⁠Lilly's IG: @lilly.vanalsburg
