Description

Today's question: "Every time I try to reach out to someone, I overthink everything. I worry they'll find it weird or that I'm being too much. How do I care without spiralling into anxiety or self-doubt?"

Your messy adviser, Johan, dives into the awkward art of loving your neighbour when anxiety threatens to turn every act of kindness into a social escape room. Through relatable stories—think panicking over pasta or endlessly drafting that encouraging text—this conversation shines a curious light on why caring for others so often feels so complicated. With stats, biblical wisdom, and plenty of good-natured humour, Johan reminds us that moments of awkwardness, hesitation, and messy effort might just be part of holy care. Whether your summer’s filled with neighbourhood waves or anxiety-fuelled “maybe next times,” you’ll find a dose of encouragement to keep showing up as your delightfully imperfect self.
