The End Anxiety Podcast: with James Meade and Friends

Welcome to End Anxiety! The Podcast with James Meade and Friends. Today we have a fascinating guest with the acclaimed soap opera producer and daytime television executive, Josh Griffith. If you have ever watched any of the programs that Mr. Griffith has written or produced, such as One Life to Live, Days of Our Lives, or The Young and the Restless, to name just a few, you will have witnessed a multitude of often high-strung characters engaged in countless plots, schemes, betrayals, and machinations designed to leave you at the edge of your seat until you “tune in tomorrow” when the whole process starts up again. When we talk about people dealing with anxiety, these should be the poster children—but that’s just television, right? Well, yes, but when you hear Josh Griffith talk about his own experiences dealing with the very real and high-pressure environment of network television you may be reminded of the saying “art imitates reality”. How does Josh survive and thrive in this notoriously tough industry? Transcendental Meditation has been his key to success for close to a decade, and it has led him to perform at a highest level of his entire career. Are you dealing with work stress, difficulties in the office, interpersonal problems, and excessive workload? Listen to today’s episode to get some ideas about what Transcendental Meditation can do for you!

“The stress was not allowing me to explore my full creativity,” says Griffith. “Stress and anxiety were controlling my life. The effect of TM was instant and effortless. I went from stress controlling my life to my life controlling the stress.”

Josh Griffith is an Emmy award winning soap opera writer and producer. Programs that he has worked on include One Life to Live, Days of Our Lives, The Young and the Restless, As the World Turns, and others.
