You Trained Yourself Into Anxiety. You Can Train Yourself Out. Find a Way! #434

from What I Love About Sex · host Stephanie Ganowski

Most people give up too easily and the people around you, the Reddit threads venting, the "this is just normal" advice from doctors and therapists, are actually reinforcing the belief that you're stuck (when you are not!). In this episode, I break down why so much performance anxiety, ED, PE, and delayed ejaculation comes down to one thing: a lack of self-trust.I share the moment climbing Mount Shasta that taught me what trust actually means, how I let go of "I'm an anxious person" as an identity, and why the language you use with yourself is either working for you or against you. You'll hear real client stories, plus the mindset shift that changes everything: you trained yourself into anxiety, which means you can train yourself into trust.If you're tired of being in your head, outsourcing your power, and letting the "What-if" thoughts control your sex life, this one's for you!Ronan App is now live on the App Store.
