EP 366: The Subconscious Time Machine: Why Anxiety Makes You Feel Like A Child with Georgie Collinson

Anxiety Reset Podcast

Show Notes

In this episode, Georgie explores why you can be a capable, composed woman one moment - and feel like a small, frightened child the next. You know your boss probably isn't angry. You know, logically, that you've done nothing wrong. And yet your whole system floods with that old, sinking sense of being in trouble. Georgie unpacks what's actually happening: in those moments, your subconscious mind time travels you back to a younger version of yourself - one who once learned to believe something painful about who she is. It isn't a flaw in your character or a lack of willpower. It's an old emotional memory being switched back on by a present-day cue, and your nervous system responding as though the past is happening now. You'll learn how to recognise when you've slipped into that younger self and why reassurance from your thinking mind alone rarely lands.

In this episode, Georgie explores what to do when you feel powerless, like you can't move forward in your life, shift your workplace, or create real change in the world. She shares why your power was never in other people, how allowing them to be exactly who they are brings you back to your own truth, and why choosing to see the best case scenario for humanity is a powerful nervous system practice in itself. If you've been carrying the weight of everything that feels out of your hands, this one is your permission to stop, exhale and put your power back where it belongs - in you.

In this episode, Georgie sits down with Dr Sarah Jane - practitioner and author of the new book Your Spine Holds The Answer - for a conversation that doesn't go where you expect it to. Sarah's work confuses people before it convinces them. From the outside, it looks strange: hands never touch the body, and yet the spine responds. Georgie and Sarah talk about why we're so quick to distrust what we can't explain — and what it actually takes to let a different kind of healing in. Then they go somewhere deeper: into Sarah's own losses. A divorce. Multiple miscarriages. The parts of her story that never resolved into something neat. This isn't a woman who found the method and everything got better. It's what it looks like to keep helping people heal while carrying a story that never got its happy ending. If you've ever felt like your healing "should" look a certain way by now - this one's for you.

This week I found myself asking - what if all this manifesting stuff is total BS? If you're a thoughtful, active, ever-thinking woman, maybe you've wondered the same thing. In this solo episode I'm being honest about my feelings, and also sharing a little life update. My wedding in Italy was incredible, despite thunderstorms and a twister (??!). Everyone warned me about dropping into a post-wedding dark hole, but surprisingly, I'm not in it. I'm just excited about what I'm creating next. We talk about: Why I felt jibbed by the manifesting teachers Whether manifesting is a really good business model, and what survivor bias has to do with it Why believing success is coming for you keeps your eyes open to opportunities you'd otherwise miss What I've manifested in my own life - my husband, my books and, more recently, my speaking career Why there's real value in manifesting, and why it's also a powerful sales strategy

In this episode, Georgie sits down with Jess Blizzard - co-founder of M BODY Minerals and a woman who was told, in her early 30s, that hysterectomy or forced menopause were her only options for stage 3 endometriosis, adenomyosis and multiple uterine fibroids. Instead, Jess chose to listen to her own body. She reworked her nutrition, her stress load, her emotional world and her relationship to her own healing - and four years later, she's pain-free, and a mother of two more children doctors said she likely wouldn't have. This conversation is about trusting your instincts when the system tells you not to, the deep link between inflammation and hormone health, and what it actually looks like to advocate for yourself when the experts are telling you what to do. Diagnosed with stage 3 endo, Jess was told hysterectomy was her only path How she chose to trust her body over the medical prognosis The steps she took to rebuild her health naturally Now four years pain-free and mother of two children Where to find Jess: Socials: @jessblizzard Website: https://www.mbodyminerals.com/ --- For all my resources & updates: https://georgiecollinson.com/

In this episode, Georgie sits down with journalist and author Lucianne Tonti to talk about her book Good Witch - and the uncomfortable, illuminating history of the witch hunts that swept Europe and America, killing tens of thousands of women. They talk about what female authority and community leadership actually looked like before the trials, how the persecution of "witches" severed women from nature, food, medicine and each other - and why that disconnection still echoes in how capable, high-achieving women feel today. Feeling at maximum capacity, overfunctioning, afraid to slow down or take up space. Lucianne and Georgie explore what it means to reclaim the practices that were once dismissed as "women's work," and what it looks like to come back home to yourself in a world that still asks women to be smaller. The witch hunts erased female authority for centuries How ancient "women's work" is quietly making a comeback Why viral "witch" content reveals something deeper about burnout Reclaiming lost feminine power as a daily practice
