Hi, I’m Dr. Jodi Aman, and welcome to another episode of Anxiety, I’m So Done With You!
Episode Summary
Today, we’re diving into the transformative power of gratitude, especially as a tool to heal trauma and cultivate emotional resilience. While trauma leaves its mark on everyone differently, gratitude practices can empower you to reclaim control over your attention and emotional energy. Let’s explore how gratitude can change your brain, improve relationships, and build a more joyful life.In this episode, Dr. Jodi unpacks how gratitude can help heal trauma by refocusing attention away from pain and self-judgment toward joy and connection. She explains the biological effects of gratitude on the brain, from reducing adrenaline to activating the GABA hormone, which promotes calmness. Dr. Jodi also outlines the difference between big T and small t trauma, reminding listeners to approach others with compassion while setting healthy boundaries.
Practical exercises include writing three things you’re grateful for each day and three accomplishments you’ve achieved. These practices amplify neuroplasticity, making positive thought pathways easier to access. Dr. Jodi also shares how gratitude can transform relationships, improve communication, and even reframe negative self-perceptions.
This episode highlights the value of fostering a gratitude habit, not as a quick fix, but as a powerful support in a broader healing journey.
Key TakeawaysGratitude redirects attention: Shift focus from unsolvable problems to moments of joy, which reduces anxiety and promotes healing.Daily gratitude practice: Write three things you’re grateful for and three personal achievements to build a stronger sense of self-worth.Trauma is curable: Healing involves processing emotions and creating new brain pathways to overcome past experiences.Model gratitude: Acknowledge others’ unique qualities with specific examples to deepen relationships and foster positivity.Resources mentioned in this episode:Watch the video of this episode at the blog: https://jodiaman.com/blog/practicing-gratitudeDr. Jodi Aman’s YouTube Channel: @DoctorJodiGeneration Z Mental Health Resource Guide: jodiaman.com/guideRedirect Positive Mindset Cards jodiaman.com/order-redirect-flash-cardsEnCompass SEL Class Activity jodiaman.com/order-encompass-gameAnxiety, I'm So Done with You!

Hey there, I'm Dr. Jodi Aman, and welcome back to Anxiety, I’m So Done With You! Today, we’re exploring why so many people are drawn to horror movies—and whether watching them can actually be a therapeutic release. I’ll be joined by my daughter, Lily, as we dive into the psychology of scary films, catharsis, and why some of us find comfort in the thrill of fear while others don’t.
Episode SummaryIn this intriguing episode, Dr. Jodi Aman and her daughter, Lily, examine the allure and psychology behind horror movies. Together, they discuss how horror can serve as a form of catharsis, offering a release from stress and anxiety, particularly for those who process trauma or enjoy a good scare. With references to Aristotle's concept of catharsis and Lily’s personal insights, they delve into why some people are drawn to scary films while others avoid them. The episode also unpacks the role empathy plays in our responses to horror, the healing benefits of shared emotional experiences, and how art—whether a scary movie or a Greek tragedy—can mirror our deepest emotions.

Key TakeawaysCatharsis Through Horror: Watching horror movies can provide a safe space to experience fear, helping some people release anxiety and process trauma in a controlled environment.Empathy and Fear Responses: People with high empathy may experience intense reactions to horror, while others view these films as fiction, affecting their level of emotional engagement.Art as Therapy: Storytelling and drama, whether through a film or theater, can help individuals process emotions, connect with others, and find meaning in their experiences.Importance of Shared Experiences: Watching movies, especially horror, with others can create bonds, increase empathy, and provide a shared emotional outlet.Resources mentioned in this episode:Watch the video of this episode at the blog: hhttps://jodiaman.com/blog/how-horror-movies-help-heal/Lily's Instagram @c.lily_aman and TikTok @c.lilyamanDr. Jodi Aman’s YouTube Channel: @DoctorJodiGeneration Z Mental Health Resource Guide: jodiaman.com/guideRedirect Positive Mindset Cards jodiaman.com/order-redirect-flash-cardsEnCompass SEL Class Activity jodiaman.com/order-encompass-gameAnxiety, I'm So Done with You!

Hi, I’m Dr. Jodi Aman, and welcome to another episode of Anxiety, I’m So Done with You! Today, we’re tackling a topic that affects many of us in our relationships: avoidant attachment. You may have heard about attachment styles before, but we're diving deeper into what it means to have avoidant behaviors, why they develop, and how they impact our ability to connect with others. I’m excited to share insights, real-life stories, and practical tips to help you navigate these challenges, so let’s get started!
Episode Summary:In this episode, Dr. Jodi Aman explores the concept of avoidant attachment, a behavior pattern where individuals withdraw from intimacy and closeness in relationships. She begins by explaining the roots of avoidant attachment, emphasizing that it often stems from past trauma and a deep-seated fear of vulnerability. Dr. Jodi discusses how avoidant behaviors can manifest, such as distancing, shutting down during conflicts, or avoiding emotional conversations, and she emphasizes the importance of understanding these behaviors as a coping mechanism rather than a flaw.
Throughout the episode, Dr. Jodi shares practical advice on how to recognize avoidant tendencies, both in yourself and your partners, and offers strategies to address them. She highlights the need for open communication, empathy, and setting clear boundaries to create healthier relationships. Additionally, the episode features live coaching segments where Dr. Jodi provides insights to guests navigating relationships with avoidant partners, offering listeners real-world examples of how to manage these dynamics.
Key Takeaways:Avoidant Attachment is a Coping Mechanism: Avoidant behaviors often stem from past trauma or fears of vulnerability. Recognizing this can help in responding with empathy and understanding.Clear Communication and Boundaries are Essential: Setting clear expectations and boundaries can help both partners feel secure, reducing the need for avoidance.Encouraging Open Dialogue: Gently inviting your partner to share their feelings without pressure can build trust and encourage more openness.Prioritize Self-Worth: Maintaining a sense of self-worth and not sacrificing your needs to accommodate avoidant behaviors is crucial.Healing Requires Participation from Both Partners: Lasting change can only occur if both individuals are willing to work through their fears and address the underlying issues.Resources Discussed in the Episode:Join Dr. Jodi's Activate Online Therapy Group to gain access to guided discussions, support, and exclusive resources for empaths https://jodiaman.com/activate/Watch the video of this episode at the blog: https://jodiaman.com/blog/understanding-avoidant-attachment/Dr. Jodi Aman’s YouTube Channel: @DoctorJodiSetting Boundaries Blog Post: https://jodiaman.com/blog/setting-boundaries/Generation Z Mental Health Resource Guide: jodiaman.com/guideRedirect Positive Mindset Cards jodiaman.com/order-redirect-flash-cardsEnCompass SEL Class Activity jodiaman.com/order-encompass-gameAnxiety, I'm So Done with You!

Hi, I’m Dr. Jodi Aman, and welcome to Anxiety, I’m So Done With You! Today, we’re diving into the dopamine cycle, exploring how it affects our mood, motivation, and even our relationships. We’ll look at what dopamine is, why it’s so important to our well-being, and how we can reset and boost it naturally. If you’re feeling a bit stuck or unmotivated, this episode is for you—let’s get back to enjoying life!
Episode SummaryIn this episode, Dr. Jodi discusses the science behind dopamine, the brain’s “feel-good” chemical, and its role in motivation, satisfaction, and joy. She explains how the dopamine cycle naturally fuels our desire for novelty and achievement, encouraging us to take on new challenges and maintain social connections. Dr. Jodi highlights how factors like routine, isolation, and screen addiction can disrupt this cycle, leaving us feeling unmotivated, isolated, and disconnected.
To help listeners reset their dopamine levels, Dr. Jodi shares practical strategies to reignite motivation, including engaging in creative activities, spending time in nature, and setting achievable goals. This episode also covers the importance of balancing routine with novelty and the need for occasional digital detoxes to maintain a healthy mind.
Key TakeawaysUnderstand the Role of Dopamine: Dopamine drives our desire for achievement and joy, motivating us to take on challenges and connect with others.Balance Routine with Novelty: While routines make us feel secure, new experiences are essential for maintaining excitement and interest in life.Break the Screen Cycle: Digital detoxes help reduce reliance on screens as a source of dopamine, allowing for more sustainable, fulfilling activities.Engage in Physical and Creative Activities: Exercise, creativity, and being in nature naturally boost dopamine and enhance well-being.Prioritize Social Connections: Interacting with others in person is key to breaking cycles of isolation and boosting mental health.Resources mentioned in this episode:Watch the video of this episode at the blog: https://jodiaman.com/blog/breaking-bad-habits/Dr. Jodi Aman’s YouTube Channel: @DoctorJodiGeneration Z Mental Health Resource Guide: jodiaman.com/guideRedirect Positive Mindset Cards jodiaman.com/order-redirect-flash-cardsEnCompass SEL Class Activity jodiaman.com/order-encompass-gameAnxiety, I'm So Done with You!

Hi, I’m Dr. Jodi Aman, and welcome to Anxiety, I’m So Done With You! Today, we’re going to tackle one of the biggest roadblocks to happiness and self-acceptance: perfectionism. I’ll be sharing insights on why perfectionism feels helpful but actually holds us back from joy and peace. We’ll explore ways to let go of these unrealistic standards and replace them with healthier, kinder expectations. Let’s dive into how you can free yourself from perfectionism and live a more fulfilling life!
Episode SummaryIn this episode, Dr. Jodi discusses the traps of perfectionism and the toll it takes on mental health and overall happiness. While perfectionism may seem to keep us focused on success, it often leads to burnout, self-criticism, and a sense of never being “enough.” Dr. Jodi explains how perfectionism is rooted in a biological drive for social acceptance, making us feel that we need to meet impossible standards to belong.
She then provides actionable strategies for listeners to break free from this mindset. By redefining personal success, recognizing the downsides of perfectionism, and setting realistic goals, Dr. Jodi offers a roadmap to release anxiety and embrace a more balanced life. This episode is packed with practical advice to help you shed perfectionism’s weight and find joy in your achievements.
Key TakeawaysRecognize the Cost of Perfectionism: Understand that perfectionism isn’t helping you; it often keeps you from reaching your goals and enjoying life.Redefine Success and Goals: Set realistic, intentional goals that encourage growth without the pressure of being “perfect.”Celebrate Small Wins: Focusing on accomplishments, big or small, helps build confidence and keeps motivation high.Externalize Perfectionism: Treat perfectionism like an external influence you can manage rather than an identity you’re stuck with.Start Before You’re Ready: Avoid hesitation and get started, letting go of the need to be fully prepared.Resources mentioned in this show: Watch the video of this episode at the blog: https://jodiaman.com/blog/let-go-of-perfectionsim/ Dr. Jodi Aman’s YouTube Channel: @DoctorJodiHow to Do Self-Compassion Article https://jodiaman.com/blog/self-compassion/Generation Z Mental Health Resource Guide: jodiaman.com/guideRedirect Positive Mindset Cards jodiaman.com/order-redirect-flash-cardsEnCompass SEL Class Activity jodiaman.com/order-encompass-gameAnxiety, I'm So Done with You!

Hi, I’m Dr. Jodi Aman, and welcome to another episode of Anxiety, I’m So Done With You!

I’m thrilled to have my daughter, Lily, joining me to share her insights and reflections. Together, we’ll break down the movie’s take on identity, belief systems, and self-acceptance. Let’s jump in!
Episode SummaryIn this episode, Dr. Jodi and her daughter, Lily, discuss Pixar’s Inside Out 2 and the impactful ways it reflects our journey of self-discovery.

Lily shares her reactions to key moments in the movie, sparking discussions on concepts like identity, resilience, and joy.
This heartfelt episode is both fun and reflective, as Dr. Jodi and Lily look at how self-understanding and emotional awareness can reduce anxiety and enhance well-being. They examine the importance of embracing all emotions and memories as part of a whole, multidimensional self.

Hey everyone, it’s Dr. Jodi Aman! Welcome to another episode of Anxiety, I'm So Done With You! Today, we’re joined by Jared and his mom, Joy, to discuss the power of breaking bad habits with a growth mindset. This episode is packed with real-life insights and advice on letting go of patterns that no longer serve us and embracing positive, transformative routines. Let's get started!
Episode SummaryIn this episode, we dive deep into the journey of overcoming bad habits with the help of a growth mindset. Joined by Jared, a 27-year-old in the transition to adulthood, and his mom, Joy, we explore how shifting our mindset from fixed to growth-oriented can break cycles of procrastination, self-doubt, and people-pleasing. We hear about Jared’s college experiences and the ways his study and social habits shaped his self-image, including how a major breakup pushed him to re-evaluate his purpose and direction.
Together, we reflect on how setbacks—whether social, academic, or personal—can be reframed to fuel positive change. This heartfelt conversation is full of actionable advice on developing gratitude, prioritizing healthy routines, and finding self-acceptance.
Key TakeawaysEmbrace a Growth Mindset: Recognize that personal growth is possible; our habits don’t define us.Build Routines for Positivity: Daily practices like gratitude and affirmations can reshape how we approach challenges.Stay Open to Change: Reframe “mistakes” as learning opportunities that can strengthen resilience.Trust the Process: Learning self-discipline and taking time to self-reflect are essential steps toward breaking bad habits.Nurture Relationships: Meaningful connections can help us process struggles and reinforce positive growth.Resources mentioned in this show: Watch the video of this episode at the blog: https://jodiaman.com/blog/breaking-bad-habits/Dr. Jodi Aman’s YouTube Channel: @DoctorJodiGeneration Z Mental Health Resource Guide: jodiaman.com/guideRedirect Positive Mindset Cards jodiaman.com/order-redirect-flash-cardsEnCompass SEL Class Activity jodiaman.com/order-encompass-gameAnxiety, I'm So Done with You!

Hi, I’m Dr. Jodi Aman, and welcome to another episode of Anxiety, I'm So Done With You! Today, we're tackling a big one—analysis paralysis. Does overthinking keep you from moving forward? You’re not alone. We’re diving into why so many of us get stuck, and, more importantly, how to break free and take action in ways that really make a difference. Let’s get started!
Episode SummaryIn this episode, we discuss the ins and outs of analysis paralysis—the state of feeling paralyzed by overthinking and indecision. I break down how societal pressures, perfectionism, and self-doubt all fuel this cycle of inaction, especially for emerging adults. I explore how our brains are wired to prioritize survival over risks, which often means playing it safe rather than trying something new.
Then, I’ll take you through eight strategies to help ease the cycle of overthinking and empower you to take practical, meaningful steps forward, from setting clear goals to embracing imperfection. By the end of this episode, you’ll feel ready to tackle indecision head-on and start taking action on the things that matter to you.
Key TakeawaysDefine Clear Goals: Break down your goals into smaller steps to overcome the overwhelm of indecision.Limit Your Choices: Too many options can increase anxiety; narrow down to a few and commit.Set Deadlines: A timeline reduces procrastination and makes goals more achievable.Celebrate Small Wins: Recognize each small step forward to build confidence and motivation.Embrace Imperfection: Perfectionism often leads to paralysis; allow yourself to make mistakes and keep going.Resources mentioned in this show: Watch the video of this episode at the blog: https://jodiaman.com/blog/analysis-paralysis/Lily's Instagram @c.lily_aman and TikTok @c.lilyamanDr. Jodi Aman’s YouTube Channel: @DoctorJodGeneration Z Mental Health Resource Guide: jodiaman.com/guideRedirect Positive Mindset Cards jodiaman.com/order-redirect-flash-cardsEnCompass SEL Class Activity jodiaman.com/order-encompass-gameAnxiety, I'm So Done with You!
