EP 110 - High Functioning Anxiety

In this episode I chat with Dr. Ellen Wong, ND, Naturopathic Doctor about high functioning anxiety (HFA). HFA is not typically diagnosed as anxiety and the individual experiencing it is not having any disruption in their work or daily routines. Someone with HFA from the outside actually looks successful, like they have it all together but inside they are experiencing perfectionism, lots of negative self talk and possibly an inability to slow down. So what is HFA and what can be done about it? Tune in to find out.

Bio:

After years of living with high-functioning anxiety, Ellen eventually reached a tipping point after two hospitalizations related to burn out. Although she appeared like she “had it all together”, she struggled internally with negative self-talk, perfectionism and overthinking. Determined to find a solution to high-functioning anxiety, Ellen combined her clinical expertise, love for women’s psychology and even travelled to the happiest countries on earth to learn about happiness. As a Naturopathic Doctor, Self-Talk Transformologist®, and founder of The Joy Avenue, Ellen works with women who feel overwhelmed and anxious and are ready to stop their negative self-talk to create space for joy in their lives. But what she’s most passionate about is helping women prioritize their health and happiness as much as their success.
