When your wellness routine starts to feel like another item on your to-do list, when fasting, cold plunges, and supplement stacks feel more depleting than nourishing…it might be time to reassess what “healing” really means. In this episode, I sit down with Jeff Krasno, founder of Commune and author of Good Stress, to reframe how we think about stress, balance, and true vitality.

If you've ever felt like you're doing it all and still feeling off, this conversation is a grounding reminder that healing isn't about intensity, it's about alignment. Jeff Krasno is the co-founder and CEO of Commune, a wellness platform, he is also the author of Good Stress: The Health Benefits of Doing Hard Things, in which he shares protocols he used to reverse his diabetes and improve his health at age 50.

What if the key to better health, deeper connections, and a more fulfilling life is actually doing hard things? In this enlightening and often humorous conversation, Dr. Scott Lyons sits down with Jeff Krasno, founder of Commune and Wanderlust, who transformed his health and life by embracing discomfort rather than avoiding it. Five years ago, Jeff was 65-70 pounds heavier and facing a diabetes diagnosis when he discovered the power of "good stress" - the kind that makes you stronger, more resilient, and more connected to others.Jeff shares his remarkable journey from being a "chubby kid" constantly relocating (11-12 times before age seven) to becoming what Scott calls "the fascia of community" - a super connector who brings people together. His childhood struggles to fit in across different countries and languages eventually became his superpower, leading him to create spaces where others could belong. Through his personal health transformation and spiritual awakening, Jeff discovered that chronic dis-ease is often the result of chronic ease - and that leaning into discomfort might be exactly what we need.From cold plunges and fasting to facilitating difficult conversations between Israeli and Palestinian students, Jeff reveals how embracing "good stress" can transform not just our physical health but our relationships and spiritual lives. As he beautifully puts it: "The true wonderful ease that we're looking for requires a degree of inconvenience."Topics We Break Down:How chronic ease leads to chronic diseaseThe concept of "good stress" and hormetic stressors (cold, heat, fasting)Jeff's protocol that helped him lose 65 pounds and reverse diabetesBuilding a "psychological immune system" through difficult conversationsThe spiritual dimensions of practices like fasting and cold exposureFinding the space between stimulus and response as the key to personal freedomWhy true ease comes from meaningful connection, not comfort

Jeff Krasno, the founder and CEO of the global wellness platform Commune Media, thought he was pretty healthy. Though he suffered from brain fog, chronic fatigue, and bouts of insomnia, those symptoms seemed utterly normal in today's society. When he learned he had diabetes, his first thought was, How can that be? I run a wellness company! In this video, I interview Jeff about his new book "Good Stress," why doing hard things can actually be GOOD for your health, and the surprising ways people healing from past trauma might benefit from doing things that are hard.
