Facing Anxiety Head-On: Denise Walker's 'Flashback Friday' Journey

We have an opportunity to heal ourselves. Every decision we make puts us on a trajectory of either repeating the same stuff or healing and leveling up to the next thing.
Ever had one of those days where everything seems to go wrong? Denise Walker takes you on a relatable ride through her poem 'Flashback Friday' in this episode of the Detox Podcast. Picture waking up late, with no clean clothes, and not a minute to spare for breakfast. Anxiety and frustration bubble up, setting the stage for a day where nothing seems to go right.
Denise uses this chaotic scenario to dive deep into the emotions tied to addiction recovery and everyday struggles. In this episode, Denise reflects on her own battles with post-acute withdrawal syndrome and finds surprising parallels with friends experiencing menopause. It's an eye-opener on how different life stages can mirror each other emotionally. Through her candid discussions, she emphasizes the importance of self-compassion and letting go of unrealistic expectations.
'Flashback Friday' may not be the most flowery poem in her collection 'Pick Your Poison', but its raw honesty makes it powerful. Denise's insights turn a seemingly simple poem into a meaningful exploration of anxiety, irritability, and healing. Whether you're navigating recovery or just having a rough day, this episode offers a comforting reminder that you're not alone. Tune in for a heartfelt conversation that mixes personal anecdotes with broader reflections, all while encouraging personal growth and self-care.
