    I remember reading bird by bird. It helped me push myself to write one shitty blog after another but I eventually stopped writing when I picked up drawing. This podcast makes me want to go back to writing. Not to be a best selling author or anything but at least journaling my thoughts and feelings. It’s comforting to write to myself by myself.

      I must have repressed anxiety, for to think of journaling is anything but comforting.

    Holy shit! I have probably listened to almost every one of Tim's podcasts... a list of incredible folks and inspiration. And as a recovering addict, and artist myself, this beautiful woman speaks directly into my soul. Simply put, thank you Anne for being you and most importantly, your candor, humility, kindness, and complete vulnerability.

  • @mattmcbrayer
    @mattmcbrayer 2 роки тому +13

    This is one one the greatest podcasts of all time. Not just the best that Tim has done. The best of all time. For people living a normal life, dealing with issues we can all deal with at any time based on our genetics, parents, life experience, etc, the points on spiritual wd40, pinballing in our mind, birds, dark nights, and everything else they talk about, this was very cathartic and helpful to listen to.

    OMG, this woman is so wonderfully and beautifully kooky, I love her so much. She is so wise and funny and comforting and sweet. I love that you can feel that she has really struggled. It's people like that that I can really listen to and except their wisdom because I can feel so much that they have really been through hell.

    I remember a long long time ago - I listened to a talk about one of her books... I had found her on the Free Library of Philadelphia's web site. She was so so so very funny and witty. a little informal... she was talking about how much she hated George Bush... ( Which - I didn't really agree with ) But - she is so funny... and very down to earth. She very often speaks in ways that goes straight for my heart - in good ways. I always learn from her. Always.

    I've been wanting to say this since 20 minutes into the interview, I was going to wait until the end however I have listened to many of Anne Lamont's interviews and by far in this one you are expressing so many beautiful, balls out, soulful, heartfelt, meaningful expressions of honesty that I have yet to resonate with.
    To say this is one of the best interviews I have ever heard is an understatement. It is so influential.
    Thank you thank you & bless you not for only who you are but your willingness to share it.

    nutritionally rich diet and learning how to emotionally self partner and how to calm triggers is essential. we must realize that biochemical imbalance causing anxiety is unproven. there are NO lab tests showing any specific chemical that is out of balance that is causing anxiety. out of controll emotional triggers definitely change hormonal levels but allopathic medicine treating psychological issues is all on guesswork. there are natural methods that cure. that you so much for this wonderfull interview.

    Yes she is an inspiration; this helped me understand why she’s very pro vaccine as it may help her feel safe but it’s unfortunate she called those who have their reasons for not getting the shot, unreasonable: they are not unreasonable, maybe that was her anxiety talking, she may regret saying that, hopefully, cause she is much better than that!

    For me, the inner critic is easily silenced by remember ‘the voice of God is silent’ (generally speaking in the Bible) and like Tolstoy says the kingdom of God is within you. So inner voices that are truly your own are mostly of not always not speaking to you in a voice kind of way. That is an ‘interject’- a past bully. A narcissist. I immediately separate it out- ask Scooby Doo style- who are you??!! I demand it. The voice always slinks away like the evil it is. ❤
