In this episode of Paige’s Perspective, I break down the difference between eustress (productive stress that builds resilience) and unsafe stress (toxic, chronic stress that erodes your health and peace). We’ll explore why your body often confuses the two, how adrenaline and cortisol show up in both, and the key markers that help you recognize whether stress is shaping you or breaking you.

You’ll learn:

  • The dangers of unsafe stress and how it rewires your nervous system.
  • The surprising benefits of eustress for your body, mind, and confidence.
  • Practical ways to reduce unsafe stress and lean into stress that fuels growth.

This isn’t about eliminating stress. It’s about learning which kind helps you grow and which kind you need to walk away from. Because when you know the difference, you can reclaim your strength, your energy, and your life.
