When the Mask Falls-Episode 2

from When the Mask Falls Hosted by Christina DeLorenzo

Anxiety isn’t just worrying. It’s the racing heart before a speech, the brain fog that blanks you out mid-conversation, the shudder that runs through your body when no one else notices. In this episode of When the Mask Falls, Christina shares what anxiety really feels like—through the lens of her Rotary Changeover Dinner, where she stepped into a leadership role while fighting an invisible battle inside. From blanking out at the podium to struggling with eye contact in everyday conversations, she opens up about the exhausting ways anxiety shows up in leadership, work, and social life. Christina also shares practical strategies that help her cope and reminds listeners that showing up, even while afraid, is its own kind of strength. If you’ve ever felt like you’re fighting storms no one else can see, this episode will remind you: you’re not broken, you’re not weak, and you’re not alone.
