Why Are You Looking At Me Like That? (Cass is here!)

Our brains instinctively make quick visual judgments based on past experiences and expectations. This natural reflex, often triggered by surprise, isn’t a conscious choice. The key is self-awareness—acknowledge it, shift focus, and move forward without overthinking.

Hello and welcome!
I’m Meredith - author, podcast host, and someone who’s spent years navigating the highs and lows of personal growth, self-esteem, and setting boundaries. If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that resilience isn’t just a buzzword - it’s a necessity.
Whether dealing with wild workplace dynamics (looking at you, retail world!) or managing the overwhelming mental load of just being human, I’ve spent a lot of time figuring out how to stay grounded, set boundaries, and keep my sanity intact. It’s not about getting it perfect; it’s about making progress.
And that’s exactly why Anxiety Makes Me Poop exists - to have real, honest conversations about the stuff we all deal with, but don’t always talk about. From overthinking everything to finding ways to laugh through the chaos, we’re here to remind you that you’re not alone.
So, thank you for listening, for laughing with us a little, and for being part of this community. We appreciate you more than you know! 💛🎙️✨
