Literally, this is what us women should be doing. We should be encouraging eachother to do do better, and helping eachother learn to love ourselves and be a team. We women shouldn't be wasting time judging eachother and trying to one up eachother. As a woman myself, I don't like when women try to one up eachother and try to be better than anyone else. Women like growingannanas are an example of what we should be doing for eachother. We should be a team working together, and trying to encourage eachother, and I respect that a lot.

Thank you so much ☺️. It’s always challenging running a business and doing YouTube and managing health and everything else business related.

I took advantage of myself without rest for a year, and the result is that I don't know how to do anything. I'm not in the mood for exercise. I'm eating more and more. I'm trying to rest, but it's exhausting

The problem is that we don’t have time for all of this because we are exhausted from our 9-5 which is actually 9-6 (1h lunch break) plus getting ready and commute it’s 8-7, we are slaving ourselves to death, this needs to change, the standard should be less working hours per day, max 5 after that the productivity drops significantly and we are just destroying our health…

Thank you so much. I’m waking up today and feeling so tired, I cried a lot feeling burning out.
I love my work, I love my life, but it’s too hard now.

Decided to just ask a psychiatrist and recommended talk therapy. With my therapist, found out I needed boundaries, I needed to re direct how I react to things and feel confident in creating boundaries and respecting them. Respect myself. Work stays at work, find things I want to to do and who I want to be with. This is not a quick fix but for long term. Also check in with emotions, not just turn them away when I don’t want to feel it but it’s your body alerting you :) also don’t sleep under 7 hours! My avg was 5!

Your exercise routines are the best I have ever seen, and believe me, I have tried so many. Doing these 4 to 5 times a week is the only thing that has helped shift my body weight and shape over a period of only 3 months. And I have been trying for 3 years!

You can't avoid all "stressing situations" but you can chance the way you think about them and how you handle them. That's how you can "avoid stress". It's easier to handle these situations with less stress, if you know your resources (sport which calm you down, friends or family which can help you physical or psychological, money to buy help, time to learn what's needed for this situation, ..). It's not the situation itself which causes stress. It's the way we value and think about it. We get stressed if we don't know our resources (possibilities to solve it) or have the feeling that our resources are not enough to manage this task.

Hi, I really like to do the exercises with your videos and get excited, but why do I have the feeling that you have borderline personality disorder?

[iridaxanthopoulou]

Hi Anna!
I'm not sure how long has it been since I started watching your shorts on YouTube, but I want you to know I really admire you. I look up to your healthy (balanced) lifestyle.
This podcast finds me in an emotionally unstable place in my life, which started about three years ago, when the divorce conversation between my parents got intense. To be clear, the divorce was never my problem but the way it happened - lots of fights, my brother is still blaming my mother for "kicking my father off the house" - is. I'm telling you that, because back in September I decided to have my distance from everything related to the situation, like Im freezing it for a while, so I can be more productive for my final school exams, based on which I'll enter or not university ( I'm from Greece, so that's the education system here). The thing is that although I did kept my physical distance (I haven't seen my father since August) I let my feelings overwhelm me without at the same time expressing them to their entirety. In others words the distancing was partially done .That led me to give up very early my goal and not study enough. Now I'm just half month away from the exams and anxious. For me personally, it feels weird noticing I'm anxious, as I never was and I'm not chaotic and I think I don't pass my nervousness to others. What I do though is avoiding the situation, like I won't study because I know how fast and methodical I should be to make up for lost time. And another form of my anxiety is forcing my self to stay in with the books even if I need to move my body, as you say, or have some human interaction. So thank you for mentioning the variety of defense mechanisms. I think most people hearing the word "anxiety" picture someone biting their nails, but it can be so much more.
PS : Those three years I've been writing little poems in order to express myself and I love it!
I hope I don't sound pessimistic. If I fail I can repeat the exams next year and in any case I'm glad I finished school and I'm getting my first job this summer. I'll also re-start running 'cause I've missed it so much.
