"Look in the mirror, that's your competition right there."

In today's episode, Abby and Margot welcome their 6th and very special guest, Anvitha Prasad to the podcast. Anvitha is a student at GWU's School of Business and founder of Circle of Giving with a mission to provide economic stability to under served and indigenous artisans. She shares her anxiety story with the Warriors which largely began in her youth, while attending a highly competitive high school. With a natural desire to compete and a passion for trying new things, Anvitha talks openly about how her anxiety would often create feelings of "not being good enough" in comparing herself to her peers. She generously highlights the ways that anxiety shows up in her life, and her favorite strategies for supporting herself; including family support, focusing on re-framing inner narrative, and so much more. Her story is very relatable, and she offers all the listeners some great advice for coping with anxiety in a witty and fun way.
