Description

In July 2017, I had a heart attack brought on by stress and burnout. Six months later, just as I was getting back on my feet, I was hit by a car. I spent three months in hospital with broken bones, unable to move, and doing hundreds of rehab reps from a hospital bed.

It was painful. It was stressful. And it forced me to learn how to handle real stress—the kind that shakes your whole life.

In this episode, I talk about:

  • Why stress feels automatic and overwhelming
  • How modern stress (mostly emotional) hijacks our joy and health
  • Why our ego drives stress habits and disconnects us from what matters
  • The cumulative damage stress causes to body, mind, and relationships
  • Seven practical steps you can use to reset your nervous system and break free of stress habits

Stress isn’t a life sentence. You can retrain your brain and body to respond differently, reduce chronic stress, and recover the zest you’ve been missing.
