Anxiety is something nearly everyone faces — but few know how to navigate it with clarity, faith, and peace.

In this episode of The Truth Response, Derek is joined by Shaleza and Shaelyn for an honest, multi-generational conversation about anxiety, fear, control, and the search for peace in a chaotic world. From school stress and uncertainty about the future, to medication, generational trauma, and surrendering control to God, this episode dives deep into what anxiety really is — and how faith can transform how we respond to it.

We explore:

• What anxiety looks like across different generations
• How fear and uncertainty fuel anxious thinking
• The difference between reacting in anxiety and acting in peace
• Why anxiety is often a symptom, not the root issue
• Faith-based tools for grounding yourself when anxiety hits
• The tension between truth, compassion, and speaking in love

This conversation is raw, thoughtful, and grounded in Scripture — reminding us that peace isn’t the absence of anxiety, but learning how to walk through it with God.
