A tour outside my comfort zones for people with anxiety
A tour outside my comfort zones for people with anxiety from People’s Tour on Vimeo.
A tour that of places outside the comfort zones of its tour guide, Jules Stopp, for anyone who has had anxiety.
Jules goes beyond the Tour Guide call of duty to bravely take us to the places that frankly freak her out – while managing to remain calm, informative and even cheerful.

Tour guide
Jules is a good for nothing South Australian who enthusiastically participates in: community radio, feminism, coming to terms with life in general and gluten-sugar-dairy free cake consumption.
She is obsessed with women’s health, ranting anywhere she can to blow up body image ideals and promote DIY YOU!
Other passions include: tunes, humans, conversations about gender, writing and artsy stuff. The colour red is currently her significant other, although affairs with blue and purple have been documented.

I do the Key Thing too.
I really like this.
I like your narrative.
Did you script it?
And who’s your clever friend?

Hi LD & AC,
Thanks for supporting Jane’s project!
Jane – the clever friend – had the great idea of not-scripting the tour. And, while I repeat myself and stumble a bit, I like that it’s natural. Jane is brilliant. This project rules.
ps. AC, I’m listening to you on my headphones right now. Fun.

hey Jules, a brilliant, brilliant piece (and a cool project). congrats to you and Jane.
and a special, warm hug for being so brave and tackling this all for us anxious, nervous souls that need to hear these thoughts expressed to understand that they are pretty much common for many people at some time in their lives.
as someone who has spent hours on planes hyperventilating and scratching the perspex windows, i certainly appreciated your honest and courage…
5 stars.

Thanks for the tour, Jules! Wish there were postcards I could send to my friends ….
Anxiety – can’t live with it, can’t create without it?

Hi Phil
Postcards are a great idea – thanks for suggesting that, even if you were only half-joking
I’ll look into it! Glad you enjoyed Jules’ tour and thanks for leaving a comment on the site.
Cheers
Jane
