317: Break unhealthy habits & stop the cycle of anxiety through DBT - Maddy Ellberger

We want to change our habits, we often know what to do... why can't we do it? How can we really enact the changes we want for ourselves? DBT might be the way. 

In this episode, Maddy Ellberger shares how Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) works to help us break unhealthy cycles and create the life - and the habits - we want. 

From over-drinking/spending/eating/working to anxiety to under-performing /exercising /caring for ourselves... we talk about DBT tools that can be applied to ANY lifestyle change we want to make.
