157: :How To Finally Be Consistent After Years of Inconsistency (Member Interview: Lee)

Today's guest, Lee, has struggled with social anxiety and panic attacks for his entire life. But he's not letting that stop him. In fact, when he attended the Man Flow Yoga Wellness Weekend in DC last September, he had a full-blown panic attack at the beginning of the event. But Lee not only powered through it, but he courageously shared what he was going through with the other men at the Wellness Weekend too. Perhaps this next part bears no connection, but it's possible: Despite being a Man Flow Yoga Member for years, Lee was never able to crack the code to consistency… until after he left the DC event that started with a panic attack. He's done yoga almost every day since - and has actually gotten to the point where he looks forward to working out. Here's what Lee and I discuss on today's show: Lee and I share our origin stories for our panic attacks He reveals a few of the most (and least) helpful ways he's addressed his social anxiety And you'll discover exactly what Lee did after the DC event to become the most consistent he's ever been Listen now.
