From Panic to Peace with Rita Zoey Chin

“The horse I fell in love with, Claret, was very, very spooky, and he had a trauma history of his own. And it didn’t matter; I loved him. I just loved him. And I would see him, so afraid. And in helping him face his fears, it knocked me out of my own. Teaching him to be brave taught me to be brave."

In this week’s episode, we explore the subject of panic attacks and the journey to finding calm with Rita Zoey Chin, the award-winning author of Let the Tornado Come. Zoey shares her insights on how her childhood experiences as a runaway shaped her, what she’s learned from panic attacks, and how she’s embraced healing through a horse named Claret, EMDR therapy, and self-compassion.

Whether you’ve experienced panic and anxiety or need a dose of inspiration, this episode is a must-listen.
