"Along the Lines" is a conversational podcast started during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Beginning the first episodes in lockdown, and unable to meet each guest in person, the conversations had to take place along the phone lines.

Each episode is along the lines of... whatever subject/s are interesting and relevant (to the guest/s) at the time of recording.

In this episode, Dan talks to Jamie about a few different topics that include...

• Dealing with health anxiety during the coronavirus

• What does "anxiety" mean to you?

• How do you help to prevent your own anxiety/panic attacks?

• What helps you when you are in the middle of an anxiety attack?

• The power of acceptance

• Experiencing shame

Let's keep the conversation going!
