We have more experience, more wisdom, and often more stability. Yet many find themselves worrying about health, adult children, aging parents, finances, grandchildren, and what the future may hold.</p><p><br></p><p>In this episode, Nancy and Elaine sit down with licensed psychologist <strong>Dr. Liz Bias</strong> to discuss why anxiety often changes as we age, why our attempts to control uncertainty can leave us feeling drained, and how we can learn to live more peacefully alongside life's inevitable unknowns.</p><p>Dr. Bias shares practical tools for managing anxiety, explains why gratitude and worry can coexist, and offers a compassionate roadmap for finding calm in an uncertain world.</p><p><br></p><p>Because peace doesn't come from knowing what happens next. It comes from believing you'll be able to handle whatever comes your way.</p><p>We hope this conversation helps you breathe a little easier—and reminds you that you're not alone. </p><p><br></p><p>⚕️ MEDICAL DISCLAIMER</p><p>The information shared in this episode is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended as medical advice. </p><p>Always consult your own healthcare provider before making any changes to your diet, exercise, medications, or health routine—especially if you have an existing medical condition or concerns.</p><p><br></p><p><br></p>","author_name":"Nancy Fox and Elaine Doran"}
