MILLIE BOBBY BROWN: "I Had A Panic Attack For 3 Months"
Descripción del Episodio
In this deeply personal conversation, Jay and Millie Bobby Brown talk about the process of discovering who she is outside of finding immense fame at a young age. She opens up about the isolation of growing up in the spotlight, the impact of shaving her head as a child, and the three-month long anxiety spiral that led her to Kyoto, Japan. She also reflects on what parenthood means to her, and we learn more about the moment she found out she was becoming a mother. Jay discovers the daily techniques Millie uses to manage her anxiety, and dives into how her and her husband Jake built a strong foundation for their marriage.
In this episode you'll learn:
How to Build Confidence Outside of External Opinions
How to Manage Anxiety and Panic Attacks in High Pressure Moments
How to Build a Strong Foundation in Relationships
How to Set Healthy Boundaries with Social Media
How to Build and Maintain Loyal, Honest Friendships
How to Approach Adoption and Building a Family
How to Raise Children Deeply Rooted in Confidence
This episode is for everyone who needs a reminder that no matter how hard the world gets, you are the creator of your own story. Protecting your peace and your time with loved ones is never selfish, it’s restorative. Knowing yourself before anyone tells you who you are will keep you rooted in the calmness of the present moment.
With Love and Gratitude,
Jay Shetty

Dan Carlin's Hardcore History
By shows
In "Hardcore History" journalist and broadcaster Dan Carlin takes his "Martian", unorthodox way of thinking and applies it to the past. Was Alexander the Great as bad a person as Adolf Hitler? What would Apaches with modern weapons be like? Will our modern civilization ever fall like civilizations from past eras? This isn't academic history (and Carlin isn't a historian) but the podcast's unique blend of high drama, masterful narration and Twilight Zone-style twists has entertained millions of listeners.
