Incredibly helpful

These are more helpful than my therapy sessions. I have been struggling with panic attacks for over 2 years now. Thank you so incredibly much for this amazing resource. It’s refreshing to know that I am not alone, and that my symptoms are “normal”. Thank you thank you thank you! Sending you so much love and light!
Daniela1013

Very Informative

I was informed about this podcast by my sister, who’s a functional hormones coach. This podcast has validated all of my feelings around panic and anxiety that I’ve been dealing with most of my life. Due to childhood trauma, I’ve been managing anxiety/panic attacks and phobias. What Shannon has said about acceptance and looking at the relationship with anxiety so you can trust in yourself makes total sense. It’s our stories that keep us on the loop. I’m grateful for people like her who are helping those dealing with anxiety. Thank you!
Efan12345

The best podcast!

This is hands down the best anxiety recovery podcast out there! Shannon is kind, compassionate, funny, and smart! She interviews awesome guests, shares uplifting recovery stories, and always keeps it real. I am so grateful for Shannon and this podcast in my personal recovery journey. Everyone should listen!
Jonesas11

Great Host and Very Informational

This podcast is pretty awesome. In my opinion, I believe that a lot of podcasts will include all the unnecessary parts of the guest(s) lives and completely overshadow the whole reason for having them on as a guest. But this host asks questions that extracts solid information from her guest and gives the audience some solid actionable steps and / or insight and it is a breath of fresh air! Thank you so much! Rock on!
LucyOLulu

So helpful ❤️

Thank you for putting your content out for those of us who suffer from anxiety. You are very relatable and have a gift in communicating. Thank you!
Workingk9

So thankful!!

I wish I’d found this podcast years ago— but so thankful I found it now. I’ve been suffering from trauma, anxiety, emetophobia and agoraphobia for decades and I am READY TO HEAL! I’m on the waitlist for the next 10 week class in September!! I just wish it was sooner!
HannahOpp

Life changing!

Could not recommend more- wish there were a million stars to give on this review. I discovered Shannon while scrolling through Instagram reels and decided to join her Panic to Peace program for agoraphobia. I then discovered her podcast. I listened to so many episodes that made me feel like I was not alone in this struggle and someone finally understood. She showed that this is something you can overcome and life a normal healthy life again. Months after the panic to peace program, I can finally say that I have gone from being housebound to recovered and haven’t had a panic attack in almost a year. Shannon is so insightful, knowledgeable, understanding, and an amazing human. So incredibly thankful for her and her work! Definitely give the podcast a listen, and I highly recommend the Panic to Peace program.
Jrmiller25

So so so valuable!!

This podcast is so incredibly valuable. Truly. From real life stories, to the interviews, to the tips that are SO HELPFUL…I just can’t say enough good things. Thank you, Shannon!
School isnt cool

This podcast saved my life.

Shannon is the reason I have found hope in my experience with panic disorder. Her presence is so incredibly kind and peaceful. She has truly saved my life to say the least. I’m so thankful our world is blessed with people like Shannon who want to bring hope and direction into the lives of those who are suffering. From one healing sufferer to the next, keep pushing through it gets better.
Hsparks186

Amazing!!

I absolutely adore Shannon! I have learned so much from her and have gained so much motivation and determination to overcome anxiety just from listening to her podcast! 100% recommend!
BNL03

Shannon is awesome!!!

A Healthy Push is the first podcast I came upon when learning how to navigate my anxiety and agoraphobia. It has been a tremendous help and encouragement. I also listen to a couple of other podcasts of those who are like minded to Shannon. However, she will always be the one who got my journey to wellness started. I am grateful for her work and the compassion and honesty she pours into it.

Life changing!

I love Shannon’s podcast so much! The information shared is truly life changing!

So thankful to have found this resource

My husband is just starting his journey with this. Thank you for sharing your story, and more importantly, that there is light at the end of the tunnel!

The best panic attack help I’ve found

I’ve met with Shannon for a few sessions after listening to her podcasts. No one gets it like she does and all her podcasts leave me feeling hopeful . Anticipatory anxiety is one of my worst struggles and I really appreciated her episode regarding this. I would love to see even more on anticipatory anxiety in future ! I’ve been in therapy for years and only recently have I felt like I had a better grasp on my panic thanks to Shannon’s. Her podcasts still give so many tools and ideas that actually help vs just being super vague like other coaches . So many coaches are out there to get your hopes up but wait to give solid advice until you pay to join a program. You can tell Shannon is truly out there to help others and isn’t trying to market solely to make money. I can say the podcasts and Instagram has been monumental to me and now I use the podcast as a way to check in with my progress and continue to challenge myself. I did pay for a few sessions to get started but I’ve been able to use so many free tools Shannon provides and I’m forever thankful ! -erin s
Lace.e

Thank you Shannon!!

This podcast and Shannon’s incredible insight and knowledge about how to truly recover from an anxiety disorder has changed my life. She shares the most helpful tips in a compassionate, yet straightforward way. She brings to light the fact that we are all completely capable of healing, freedom, and peace. Everything she shares is incredibly helpful and because she has gone through it herself, her words hold that much more weight. She has given me hope when I had none, and I’ve already seen a positive shift in my personal journey with panic disorder since listening to her. I’m forever grateful. Thank you Shannon!
JNM1126

Amazing podcast

Shannon is so caring and you can tell she genuinely wants to help. From sharing personal stories to tips and tricks of conquering anxiety/panic, she is awesome. Thanks so much Shannon, your latest episode about the three common anxiety symptoms provided me a ton of comfort and strength. 😊
ZoeBrown123

Perspective

Love listening to this podcast and getting perspective from people who have genuinely struggled and recovered. Shannon is kind, compassionate and eager to help people who need it and it really shows through when you listen.

Amazing anxiety and panic resource

I am so glad to have come across your account and podcast. Ive suffered from GAD and panic disorder from childhood and the advice and information is literally life changing. Thank you for what you do to help others heal.
chrissieb.rackett

Thank you Shannon!!

Shannon’s work has been instrumental in my healing process. So happy she started this podcast to normalize all the various aspects of this struggle and to share hope with other sufferers!!! Five stars!!!

Amazing!

Excellent podcast! Highly recommend 💓

A healthy shift from long time sufferer

Shannon showed up in my Instagram recently out of the blue and I take it as a divine intervention 🫶🏻. I bought her workshop on driving anxiety and I’m slowly listening to all her podcasts. I’ve suffered from agoraphobia for 29 years if you can believe it. I say I am highly functioning but I’ve needed help for awhile now but couldn’t quite find what I was looking for, until Shannon. From one sufferer to another she just has an inside language that hits different and has shifted my mind already. Thank you Shannon and I’ll be reaching out soon!
MeditatingMom2

Great podcast

So relatable and helpful!!
SBee92

Amazing Podcast!

I believe I came across this podcast when I was searching for hope. I am grateful I came across this podcast. I started listening to Shannon's podcast last December 2023 and forever I am grateful and always look forwards towards new episodes. It's made me realize that we have the power to fix ourselves. Yeah, it might take us abit longer and learning to let go of that fear of symptoms. BUT Shannon explains everything so thoroughly. I've learned so much from listening to her podcast and continue to learn as I'm healing. Thank you Shannon🤍
taylorguacc

Love this podcast!

I have been following Shannon since last September. I took her Panic to Peace course and I regularly listen to her podcast. I especially listen to episode 40 when I am feeling stuck. Thank you Shannon for your real and raw content and being so vulnerable with us! :)
Beccbecc13

A Healthy Push is what I’ve always needed

Wow.. I don’t even know where to start with Shannon and how wonderful and life saving (literally) her podcast is. I felt that destiny placed this podcast when it knew I needed it. I was at a place of “enough is enough” and I searched for a panic attack help podcast and Shannon’s caught my eye. She gave me such a different perspective to anxiety and panic that no other therapist has been able to do. I’ve gone through countless therapists, self help books, and even Google to try and find something that can HELP me instead of make it worse. Enter Shannon and I have felt more alive, and more peaceful in just a couple of weeks. I will be taking her Panic to Peace course and her master class because I’m ready to just say goodbye to the unhealthy response to anxiety and panic. Shannon, you have saved my life in more ways than I can express. I was in such a dark spot mentally when I found you and your knowledgeable and wisdom have helped me to be able to go outside and go shopping alone feeling more peace. Thank you thank you for being such a breath of fresh air.

Full of so much helpful, relatable information! So grateful I came across this podcast!

Best Podcast I have ever listened to

Shannon, I’m new to your podcast but have listened to somewhere around 15-20 of your episodes over the last couple weeks and after each episode I feel more hopeful and capable than before. I struggle immensely with emetophobia and have for over 20 years. My phobia has made my world so small and has stopped me from living. I want to be a better mom, wife, friend, and a better me. I’ve always wanted that but now I am more motivated than ever because I want to take back control of my life and finally LIVE. I plan to take your course as soon as it opens back up but in the meantime THANK YOU for your support and wisdom. It’s been more helpful to me thus far than anything I’ve ever tried. And, because of your podcast, I went ahead and told my husband to book us a flight for a vacation- something I’ve been avoiding for 7 years. God bless you Shannon. I can’t wait to work with you more closely!
JRCJMari

The Best

These podcasts have been soooo helpful in my recovery! I look forward to each one!! ♥️
TiffanyLMastro

I’m not the only one

For the longest time I thought I was the only person that suffered from anxiety about doing everyday things like waiting in line or going to the store. Through Shannon’s podcast I found out that I was not alone in this! That notion, that I’m not the only one, has been such a comfort and has helped me stop feeling weird and in my head about day to day activities.
Silly213

A healthy push

This podcast is exactly that A Healthy Push for anyone struggling with anxiety panic disorder and everything else that comes with that. I found Shannon on TikTok and was so happy when I found her podcast. It has gave me that push I needed to start my agoraphobia recovery. Thank you Shannon.
Julie22pa

Grateful

Found Shannon on Tiktok and immediately searched out her podcast. Wow. It is so relatable! I’ve listened to about 4 so far and every one is so insightful and helpful. It really gives me hope in my own journey. I’d also like to add that I typically don’t listen to many podcasts cuz I guess I’m just more of a visual person, but this one is definitely worth it, if you are struggling too. 💙
Rose19**

Great subject matter

This week’s Podcast was so insightful…all about mindfulness and paying attention to where our thoughts are in the moment. Thank you ladies! I will lister to this one again.

MeredithEvans09

So helpful!

I have listened to 3 or 4 episodes and I am on the edge of my seat to listen to more. Shannon and her guests provide such authentic and vulnerable conversations. I truly feel like I’m listening to myself talk in some of the episodes. It’s like she knows exactly what I’ve been dealing with. I’m so encouraged already and would highly recommend giving them a listen!
Hahnjc90

Spot On!

I love listening to these podcasts because they are spot on of what I struggle with daily. It’s comforting to know I am not alone or broken beyond repair.

Just what I needed

I found this podcast from her IG page, and it’s the best resource I’ve found for anxiety and panic. It’s so relatable and speaks right to my heart. I can’t wait to get through binging then all! 💗
crissy mondragon

5/5

I have really enjoyed A Healthy Push podcast, it has made me realize that anxiety is not a life sentence, that I am capable, and has even taught me things I wasn’t aware of. Like the menstrual cycle episode connected so many dots for me. I definitely look forward to it every week.
Dazo_beast

Excellent podcast

This podcast is great, informative, and easy to listen to. I really enjoy listening to Shannon’s personal experiences with anxiety and anxiety recovery, it gives me hope for my own recovery one day.
ChristinaAB

So helpful!

I love this show. It’s so helpful and I have learned healthy skills here more quickly than I did on my own. Thank you!
Momuvboyz

Honest & helpful

I have had panic disorder for several years. And if you’ve ever suffered with this, you’ve tried it ALL. I stumbled upon her IG reels and learned of this podcast. I appreciate that she is a recovered person rather than a mental health professional - totally made her more relatable and credible. It’s not always what I want to hear, but it’s WORKING! It’s hard and challenging but I can do hard things even when uncomfortable. Thanks Shannon!
Tracie Hebert

Road to Recovery

Shannon has been such a blessing in my life. Almost the older sister I never had. I have been blessed to be able to join her healthy push community. She often uses the words “you are safe” , and it has forever become my mantra. A must listen if you’re read to start on your road to recovery.

A must listen for anyone struggling

Shannon and her podcast are such a loving support for someone working on recovering from panic, agoraphobia, and building a better relationship with anxiety. It truly feels like listening to a friend with her kind support she provides. Shannon provides hope, information, and self-compassion for anyone struggling.

My free therapy — love this podcast

I have struggled with anxiety since the age of 4, I am now 28. I have seen many therapists and this podcast has helped me just as much or more. I am so thankful. Lily has become a “friend” and staple in my healing journey. Listening to someone who has been through it, and is on the other side, is invaluable. Thank you Lily.
