What if your anxiety is a smoke alarm, and your body is working perfectly?Dr. John Delony, a mental health expert with two PhDs, sat down with Lewis and said the thing most of us dodge: if you are awake at 2:30 in the morning, something in your life is on fire. Numbing it with a drink or a screen is like duct taping a pillow over the alarm while the house burns around you.Then he got personal. While he was writing Building a Non-Anxious Life, his wife walked into his basement gym and told him, “I'm watching my husband die,” and then, “John, we have enough.” His little girl would not hug him, and in counseling he could not put a fist to his chest and say “I love this guy.”Back then he would have rated himself a zero out of ten on being enough. Now he says nine, and his daughter uses him as a jungle gym. He and Lewis also talk about why “me over us” hurts so many relationships and how paying off debt let him grieve a cousin without a single worry about money.You'll finish this one wanting to put your phone down and ask what your own alarm has been trying to tell you about your marriage and your kids.<a href="https://amzn.to/4y8w2O8" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Building a Non-Anxious Life</a><a href="https://amzn.to/4ruoBhC" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Own Your Past Change Your Future: A Not-So-Complicated Approach to Relationships, Mental Health & Wellness</a><a href="https://amzn.to/4xNlLGi" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Redefining Anxiety: What It Is, What It Isn't, and How to Get Your Life Back</a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/johndelony/?hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">John's Instagram</a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@TheDrJohnDelonyShow" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">John's YouTube</a><a href="https://www.facebook.com/JohnDelony/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">John's Facebook</a>In this episode you will:<ul><li>Hear how Dr. John Delony went from 0/10 to 9/10 on believing he is enough</li><li>Use neuroception to understand why your kids pull away when you stop feeling safe to them</li><li>Discover why anxiety is a smoke alarm proving your body works perfectly, not a flaw to silence</li><li>Break the common male lie that your only value is your utility</li><li>Build an antifragile life where hard seasons bring grief without spiraling into anxiety</li><li>Replace rigid beliefs with shared values so your relationships choose us over me</li></ul>For more information go to <a href="https://lewishowes.com/1994" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://lewishowes.com/1994</a><a href="https://lewishowes.com/more" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">More SOG episodes we think you’ll love!</a>
