Thriving (Not Surviving) With Anxiety with Dr. David H. Rosmarin | #20

What if anxiety isn’t something to get rid of — but something to work with?In this enlightening conversation, Erin sits down with Dr. David H. Rosmarin, Harvard Medical School psychologist and founder of the Center for Anxiety, to explore a radically refreshing approach to anxiety. Instead of treating anxiety as the problem, David reveals how it can be a signal, a source of clarity, and even a catalyst for growth — especially for high performers and leaders.Together, they talk about anxiety in high-achievement culture, why trying to “eliminate” anxiety makes it worse, and how vulnerability and connection can transform how we cope and lead. David also shares personal stories about navigating his own anxiety, and the surprising turning point that made him more grounded, open, and human in his work and relationships.In this episode, you’ll learn:- Why eliminating anxiety is not only impossible — but harmful- How to distinguish normal emotional anxiety from clinical anxiety- Why vulnerability is one of the most underrated leadership tools- Practical ways to metabolize anxiety into focus, clarity, and resilienceThis is a conversation for anyone who’s ever wished they could “just calm down.” You don’t have to be fearless. You just have to be real.Come revisit this one anytime life feels heavy — it will land differently every time.Connect with Dr. David H.
