このコンテンツについて
In this episode, we're diving deep into the chaotic world of travel anxiety – that familiar flutter in your chest when you should be excited about your upcoming trip, but instead your brain decides to throw a panic party about everything that could go wrong. Join Fabian as he shares vulnerable stories from Bangkok airport, breaks down the science behind travel anxiety, and walks you through practical strategies that actually work. Whether you're dealing with flight anxiety, hotel room meltdowns, or that overwhelming dread that starts weeks before you even leave home, this episode will help you understand that you're not broken – you're just human, and your nervous system is doing exactly what it's designed to do.
