All we're really talking about here, Drew, is neuroplasticity getting a new groove going, a new habitual thought going that says I am safe, yeah, I'm fine, this is not a threat.
Ever felt your heart race at the thought of driving on a busy freeway? You're not alone. In this eye-opening episode of 'The Anxious Truth', Drew Linsalata tackles the common yet daunting fear of freeway driving.

He emphasizes the importance of practice and persistence, encouraging listeners to gradually expose themselves to their fears and develop coping techniques.
This episode is packed with insights on how neuroplasticity can help reshape your brain's response to anxiety, making it possible to drive with confidence. If freeway driving anxiety has been holding you back, this episode offers the tools and encouragement you need to face your fears head-on.
