Psychotherapist and Author
Joshua Fletcher is a psychotherapist, TEDx speaker and bestselling author, known to a large online audience as Anxiety Josh. His work centres on understanding anxiety rather than fighting it: what an overwhelming moment actually is, why the brain is wired this way, and why so many coping strategies quietly reinforce the thing they are meant to fix.
On The BEYOND Podcast he talked with host and producer Aleksandra King through the stress jug analogy, the case against fighting your feelings, mindfulness versus wellness trends, behavioural techniques, navigating crowded spaces, the pressure of self-optimisation culture, and the one small step anyone can take today.
