Creatives & Anxiety: Is There a Connection?

Anxiety is characterized as excessive and persistent worry and fear about everyday situations. Most people, perhaps including yourself, have experienced this overwhelming feeling in moments of test taking, public speaking or when it comes to creating a work of art.
Yet, we are asking the question, does anxiety affect creatives more than the general population? That's the question we want to know.
In this episode, Alexandria explores the amazing connection between creativity and anxiety. She will break down the characteristics of a creative person, share the signs of anxiety and share tips that has helped her to manage the negative emotion.
