Ever find yourself running through worst-case scenarios like, “What if my child has a meltdown in public?” or “What if I’m missing something critical?” This is anticipatory anxiety. It’s that relentless “what if” loop that keeps you stuck in fear, bracing for problems that haven’t even happened yet.
In this week’s episode of The Autism Mom Coach, I’m breaking down what anticipatory anxiety really is, how it shows up in your life, and why it’s stealing your energy. Plus, I’ll teach you a powerful strategy called positive projection to stop the cycle and start parenting with more confidence.
Don’t forget—my free webinar, “Stop Walking on Eggshells and Start Parenting with Confidence,” is happening tomorrow. I’ll go even deeper into how to break free from bracing for your child’s emotions. Register through the link here or my Instagram bio.
