The Anxiety Isn’t Taxes..So Where Does It Come From

Emotional Elevator with Sandee Byrd  Why does Tax Day create anxiety in your body before you even know the outcome? Is it the numbers.. or the feeling? The chest tightens. The overthinking. The avoidance. What if the response isn't about taxes at all-but about what taxes represent? Fear of getting it wrong. Fear of not having enough. Fear of being judged. In this episode of Emotional Elevator, Sandee Byrd, Transformational Coach and Empowerment Expert, will explore how our nervous system responds to perceived pressure, authority, and uncertainty-and why something as simple as taxes can feel so heavy. What do you feel in your body when you think about taxes - and what does that remind me of?
