The word anxiety is thrown around a lot, so much so that you would think every other person you meet has been diagnosed with an anxiety disorder...but that's not the case. Many people, particularly young women, will tell you they suffer from anxiety. And while I believe they do absolutely feel anxious, most don't actually suffer from clinical anxiety. In fact, they are simply anxious because of the lifestyle they live and the pressure they feel to be someone they are not on a day-to-day basis. In this episode, I examine some possible sources of anxiety that are plaguing young women specifically today, and how this silent epidemic is taking place under the disguise of, and in large part due to the pressure from, a movement to "empower" women.
