Some days the anxiety is bigger than usual. The uncertainty feels heavier. The things you care about most feel frighteningly out of your hands. Originally recorded on Election Day 2024 and replayed on the eve of the Inauguration, this episode speaks into exactly those moments — when the world feels like it's tipping and you don't know which way it will land.

In this episode, James Henry doesn't offer easy answers, because there aren't any. Instead he offers something more honest and more lasting: an invitation to check in with your own body, notice where the anxiety is living in you, do what is genuinely yours to do — and then, as St. Francis of Assisi said to the friars near the end of his life, let it go. Not because it doesn't matter. But because borrowing pain and suffering from an uncertain future helps no one, least of all you.

If you're struggling with political anxiety, fear about the future, a sense of helplessness in the face of things beyond your control, or simply trying to find your footing on a difficult day — this episode is a compassionate, grounding companion. Because no matter what comes, you are still infinitely precious and unconditionally loved for the gift you already are. And the work of being that gift, right where you are, continues regardless.
