Overthinkers Anonymous; let’s talk

Sometimes overthinking isn’t about what could go wrong… it’s about what could go right. In this episode, we’re talking about why good things can feel surprisingly difficult to trust. The new opportunity. The relationship that’s going well. The progress you’ve been hoping for. Because sometimes, instead of enjoying the moment, our minds start preparing for it to disappear. We brace ourselves. We lo...

Sometimes overthinking isn’t really about the situation… it’s about the need for an answer. The need to understand. The need for certainty. The need to figure out what something means before we’re ready to let it go. In this episode, we’re talking about the exhausting search for clarity—the way our minds keep returning to unanswered questions, unresolved situations, and things we can’t quite make...

Sometimes the conversation ends… but the overthinking doesn’t. A text gets sent. A call ends. A conversation is over. And somehow, that’s when the replay starts. Did I say too much? Did they mean something by that? Did I come across the wrong way? In this episode, we’re talking about the spiral that happens after the conversation is over—the replaying, the analyzing, and the mental detective work...

Sometimes overthinking in relationships has nothing to do with what was actually said… and everything to do with what wasn’t. A delayed text. A different tone. A little more distance than usual. And suddenly your mind starts trying to figure out what changed. In this episode, we talk about the way overthinking can attach itself to connection — replaying conversations, reading between lines, and tr...

Stuck Between the Past and the ‘What Ifs’” Sometimes it feels like our minds only live in two places… The past… and the “what ifs.” Replaying conversations. Rethinking moments. Wondering what we should’ve said differently. And then somehow… immediately jumping into the future. What if this goes wrong? What if they think this? What if I mess something up? In this episode, we talk about what it feel...

Sometimes overthinking doesn’t feel loud at first… It starts as one small “what if.” But then your mind keeps going. What if this goes wrong? What if they meant something by that? What if I’m not prepared? What if something bad happens? And before you know it… your thoughts are louder than the moment you’re actually in. In this episode, we talk about what happens when the “what ifs” stop feeling h...

Sometimes a thought pops into your head… and your first reaction is: “Why would I even think that?” In this episode, we’re talking about intrusive thoughts — the ones that feel random, uncomfortable, and sometimes completely out of character. The ones you didn’t choose… but still feel responsible for. We get into: – why these thoughts happen – why they feel so real and unsettling – and why having...

“I should be doing more.” “I should be further along.” “I should have figured this out by now.” Those thoughts sound normal… but they get heavy. In this episode, we’re talking about the quiet pressure of “should” — and how it slowly builds into stress, guilt, and overthinking without us even realizing it. Because it’s not just one thought… it’s a constant feeling that you’re somehow behind. If you...

Sometimes it’s not what’s actually happening… it’s the story we’re telling ourselves about it. In this episode of Overthinkers Anonymous, we’re talking about inner narratives — the quiet voice in our head that tries to make sense of everything, even when it doesn’t have the full picture. The assumptions. The “what ifs.” The way one small moment can turn into a whole story. When you’re used to over...

Sometimes the hardest part isn’t making a decision… it’s trusting yourself after you’ve made it. In this episode of Overthinkers Anonymous, we’re talking about what it feels like to constantly second guess your own thoughts, question your instincts, and wonder if you’re overthinking everything… or actually picking up on something real. When you’re used to analyzing everything, trusting yourself do...

I can’t believe we made it to 10 episodes. And honestly… I’m still overthinking everything 😅  In this episode of Overthinkers Anonymous, we’re slowing things down a little and celebrating the journey so far — the thoughts, the growth, the moments that made me pause, and the realization that maybe overthinking isn’t something we “fix”… it’s something we learn to understand.  This one is a little l...

Sometimes overthinking isn’t about other people. It’s not about what was said… or what might happen. Sometimes it turns inward. In this episode of Overthinkers Anonymous, we’re talking about what happens when your thoughts start focusing on you — replaying your words, questioning your actions, and picking apart things no one else is even thinking about. When your mind becomes the one thing you can...

Sometimes the hardest part isn’t making a decision… it’s trusting the one you already feel. In this episode of Overthinkers Anonymous, we’re talking about the struggle of trying to trust your intuition while your mind is questioning everything. Is this a gut feeling… or am I just overthinking it? Is this clarity… or anxiety? Can I actually trust myself? When you’re used to analyzing every detail,...

Sometimes it starts with something small. A change in tone. A shift in energy. A feeling that something is… different. And before we even know what’s happening, our mind starts trying to figure it out. Did we do something wrong? Are they upset? Should we fix it?  In this episode of Overthinkers Anonymous, we talk about what happens when we start carrying emotions that were never ours to hold in th...

Sometimes being the “strong one” doesn’t mean you feel strong at all. In this episode of Overthinkers Anonymous, we’re talking about the quiet pressure of always being the person who holds everything together. The one people rely on. The one who stays calm on the outside… even while your mind is constantly racing on the inside. What happens when you’re the one everyone leans on — but you’re also t...

We say we’re exhausted… But the moment we sit down to rest, the guilt creeps in. In this episode, we’re unpacking why doing “nothing” feels uncomfortable for overthinkers. Why slowing down can feel unproductive. Why rest feels like something we have to earn.  If you’ve ever felt anxious while trying to relax… Or guilty for not “doing enough”… You’re not alone in your thoughts.  Let’s talk about it...

Have you ever sent a text… and then immediately started analyzing it? Did that sound weird? Was that too much? Too short? Too eager? And then the waiting starts. Why haven’t they replied yet? Did I say something wrong? Are they upset? Are they losing interest? In this episode of Overthinkers Anonymous, we’re unpacking why texting — in romantic relationships, friendships, family dynamics, and even...

Have you ever stared at a small decision and felt like it carried way more weight than it should? What to say. What to choose. Whether you’re making the “right” move. In this episode of Overthinkers Anonymous, I’m talking about why small decisions can feel overwhelming — and why it’s rarely just about the decision itself. In this episode we explore: Wanting to get it right Not wanting to disappoin...

In this episode of Overthinkers Anonymous, we’re talking about something most of us do — replay conversations in our head long after they’re over. The things we wish we said differently. The tone we’re questioning. The moments we keep mentally revisiting, over and over again. In this episode, I explore: Why our brains replay conversations on repeat What we’re really searching for when we do this H...

Welcome to Overthinkers Anonymous — a space for people who think deeply, replay conversations, and live a little too much in their heads. In this first episode, I’m sharing why this podcast exists, who it’s for, and what inspired me to create a place where overthinking isn’t something to fix — it’s something to understand. If you’ve ever felt like your thoughts are louder than everyone else’s… If...
