Would you come with me to a networking event? Ummm…NO! Beyond Comfort is all about pushing the bounds of our social anxiety to see just how far we can get when we quiet that often overbearing voice that tells us we can’t. Co-hosts and best friends Elle and Michelle are no experts at combating their anxiety, but they’re gonna at least try. Join them as they talk through their anxious thoughts, go to events, chat with new friends, and ultimately try to work through their anxieties. No matter how loud your social anxiety is, Beyond Comfort is for those who are tired of living in limbo. Let’s go Beyond Comfort.","podcastLogo":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/imglogo/image-logo/21082707/IMG_2472.jpg","podcastShareLogo":"https://d2bwo9zemjwxh5.cloudfront.net/image-logo/21082707/IMG_2472_1200x628.jpg?s=045b93884d5482a8f8f48f62f3c9d159&e=jpg","podcastUrl":"https://www.elevenseventeenproductions.com","podcastCanSearched":true,"feedUrl":"https://www.elevenseventeenproductions.com/feed.xml","theme":"elegant","podcastDeepLink":"https://www.podbean.com/pw/pbblog-44zwf-141b253?from=usersite","removePodbeanBranding":"no","brandingLogo":null,"timeZone":{"timeZoneId":15,"gmtAdjustment":"GMT-05:00","useDaylightTime":1,"value":-5,"text":"(GMT-05:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada)","daylightStartTime":"Second Sunday Of March +2 Hours","daylightEndTime":"First Sunday Of November +2 Hours","timezone":"America/New_York"},"podcastDownloads":null,"totalEpisodes":10,"showComments":true,"iOSAppDownloadLink":null,"customizeCssUrl":null,"androidAppDownloadLink":null,"showPostShare":true,"showLike":true,"author":"Eleven Seventeen Productions","enableEngagementStats":true,"shareEmbedLink":"https://admin5.podbean.com/embed.html?id=pbblog-44zwf-141b253-playlist","language":"en","sensitivitySessionExpireTime":3600,"podcastApps":[{"name":"Apple Podcasts","link":"https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/beyond-comfort/id1828553473","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/apple-podcast.png","title":null},{"name":"YouTube","link":"https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC20J_44v8Bqaf_k2LTdPzvA","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/youtube_logo.png","title":null},{"name":"Podbean App","link":"https://www.podbean.com/pw/pbblog-44zwf-141b253?from=usersite","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/podbean-app.png","title":null},{"name":"Spotify","link":"https://open.spotify.com/show/2msg0YgwMZ1VYiQ0yGIc56","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/spotify.png","title":null},{"name":"Amazon Music","link":"https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/7e788661-00b2-4e04-b7d1-913ab6458435","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/AmazonMusic.png","title":null},{"name":"iHeartRadio","link":"https://iheart.com/podcast/287370682","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/iHeartRadio.png","title":null},{"name":"PlayerFM","link":"https://player.fm/series/3679448","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/PlayerFM.png","title":null},{"name":"Listen Notes","link":"https://feed.podbean.com/elevenseventeenpro/feed.xml","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/ListenNotes.png","title":null},{"name":"Podchaser","link":"https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/beyond-comfort-6164081","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/Podchaser.webp","title":null},{"name":"BoomPlay","link":"https://www.boomplaymusic.com/podcasts/135407","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/BoomPlay.png","title":null}],"components":{"base":[{"id":"MainStyle","val":"light"},{"id":"Font","val":"Antique"},{"id":"SecondaryFont","val":"Antique"},{"id":"PlayerColor","val":"#428200"},{"id":"PlayerStyle","val":"player1"},{"id":"PlayerWave","val":"show"},{"id":"Favicon","val":"https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/kdj6sqy879aauspj/IMG_2472.jpg"},{"id":"CookiesNotice","val":"hide"},{"id":"CookiesNoticeContent","val":"

Your Hosts

Beyond Comfort is hosted by best friends Michelle and Elle — two ambitious and creative 23-year-olds who are learning to navigate adulthood while managing the everyday challenges of social anxiety. The pair first met at a dance studio when they were just 13 years old, instantly bonding over their shared distaste for ballet class and their love for honest conversation. What started as whispered jokes during pliés grew into a decade-long friendship rooted in vulnerability, humour, and mutual growth.

Now, ten years later, Michelle and Elle are closer than ever. Though they're often seen as outgoing and sociable, there’s still that persistent voice of doubt and anxiety in the back of their minds — one they confront with courage, curiosity, and connection.

Hosts Michelle and Elle tackle the last items on their summer bucket list as a way to confront social anxiety. They try a Muskoka run club, gather for a group dinner, and brave a loud Summer House trivia night.

Along the way they reflect on summer pressures, how movement and social connection affect anxiety, and invite listeners to finish their own bucket lists or join them for a fall one.
