Description

Did you know 84% of Americans say stress impacts them as deeply as trauma?

Recognizing this, Dr. Rebecca Heiss is a stress physiologist whose work is reshaping how we think about pressure, performance, and resilience.

Today, Rebecca shares how we can reframe stress as a tool for growth, how to move from trauma to post-traumatic growth, and why curiosity is often the best way through anxiety. With research-backed examples and real-life stories, she explains why your belief about stress (not the stress itself!) may be what’s holding you back.

My friends, if you’re carrying more than your fair share right–personally, professionally, emotionally, or something else–then this conversation is for you. You’ll leave feeling a little lighter, a lot more empowered, and equipped to view stress not as something to run from, but as a signal you’re on the edge of something meaningful.
