Show Notes

I almost didn’t go to Sigiriya.


The plan was simple: take a local bus, travel for hours, explore somewhere new. But my anxiety had other plans.


In this episode, I share something different — I recorded myself before the journey and again after arriving. Raw. Unfiltered.

We talk about:

  • Toilet anxiety and lack of control.

  • The spiral before committing.

  • The physical sensations of fear.

  • What changed once I arrived.

  • And what anxiety teaches us about avoidance.

Sometimes courage isn’t climbing a mountain.


Sometimes it’s getting on the bus anyway.
