Is anxiety a persistent struggle for you? Do you feel constantly triggered, even when nothing is causing it? Do you love God, but question if that is enough to stop the panic attacks?
You are in the right place! This podcast is designed to help women like you retrain your mind so you can stop the cycle of anxiety and panic attacks.
My name is Ashanti. I am a mom, wife, and ordained minister (elder.) I am also the host of the "Get Free From Anxiety" podcast, where I share my story of overcoming chronic anxiety and panic attacks by renewing my mind with God's word and faith-based action.
While I was struggling with anxiety, I felt alone. Everything I researched only pointed me to coping methods and medicated treatment. I didn't want that to be my story, so I partnered with God, started following His plan for peace, and walked away from years of crippling fear and panic attacks in just 4 short months. That's the POWER of Jesus.
I created this podcast for women who wanted to find a way to true freedom in alignment with their faith. If that's you, welcome sis!

#124 | How to Go to God When You've Been Anxiously Avoiding Him (3 Simple Steps)
Apr 3000:16:23Tap to summarizeIf you've been skipping prayer, avoiding church, or filling your time with anything but God, I see you, and I've been there too. Avoidance doesn't mean you've stopped loving Him. More often, it means fear, shame, or confusion has quietly crept in between you and the One who already knows everything about you. In this episode, I'm walking you through three simple steps to help you return to God even when it feels hard. If you're struggling with anxiety, feeling spiritually disconnected, or just can't seem to find your way back to God, this episode is for you. 💛 Let's Work Together!

Transcribe →#123 | 3 Ways to Reset When You Feel Overwhelmed and Mentally Exhausted
Apr 2800:14:46Tap to summarizeHave you ever felt so mentally and emotionally drained that you weren't even overthinking anymore...you were just done? Like you're still showing up, cooking dinner, being present, but feeling completely numb on the inside? I've been there. Just recently, actually. And in this episode, I'm walking you through exactly what helped me shake off that weariness and find my way back. I know what it feels like to carry so much — as a wife, a mother, a woman of faith — and to give so much of yourself that there's nothing left to pour from. I recently heard Sarah Jakes Roberts preach on Galatians 6:9 — "Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up," and it completely shifted something in me. Weariness has a way of sneaking up on you, especially when you've overcome something so many times and then here it comes again, right back at your front door. I want you to know: you are not alone, and there is a beautiful reset waiting for you on the other side of this. Today, I'm sharing three simple faith-based steps to hit that reset button. You ready? Let's go! It's THIS THURSDAY!

Apr 2300:24:53Tap to summarizeHave you ever been blindsided by something you never saw coming and immediately felt fear, panic, or anxiety? How do you learn to manage the effects of that sudden event? For most of us, we find ourselves in a state of fear and anxiety when things take an unexpected turn.

Apr 900:19:16Tap to summarizeI know what it's like to love God deeply and still wake up anxious. If you've ever wondered why your faith doesn't seem to be "enough" to make the anxiety stop, I want you to know there is nothing wrong with you. In this episode, I'm opening up about three common mistakes I see Christians making when it comes to anxiety, mistakes I made myself for years.

Apr 700:16:41Tap to summarizeDo you know what it's like when anxiety persists to the point where you start to wonder if this is just how it is? Am I always going to be anxious? The world seems to think anxiety is trending, and have made it seem like a cool, personality trait. But God says to "Be anxious for nothing," (Phil 4:6) which means He never meant for it to be part of our identity. So how do we free ourselves from this? How can we start to live without it? Well, today, I'll walk you through three boundaries you can put in place to cut off anxiety's access to your life, rooted in what God says about guarding your heart (Proverbs 4:20-23) and the power of hearing His Word (Romans 10:17). This isn't another "just pray about it" message. This is going to give you real steps to get your peace back in real time. And if you want to go deeper, join my free online workshop!
