About this listen

Fitness coach Marco Jimenez wasn't looking for an inspirational arc—he was trying to function through anxiety and panic attacks. In this episode of Dealing with Feeling, he and Dr. Marc Brackett talk about what actually helped (and what didn't) as he rebuilt resilience.

Marco shares his personal journey, the tools he once dismissed, and why curiosity (not perfection) became the turning point for both his emotional and physical resilience.

In this conversation

  • What panic and anxiety took from Marco—and what helped him get it back
  • Why curiosity beats "quick fixes" when you're trying to change your life
  • How to reframe setbacks and stay connected to your purpose
  • The small, repeatable shifts that build resilience over time
