Podcasts about Stress

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows!   This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track!   Check out today's questions:    Alicia: Hi there, thank you for your time. I would like to know what kind of cleanse you would suggest for someone who has arthritis, neuropathy and gut issues. Lots of inflammation and already gluten free. Has had a long standing relationship with pharmaceuticals due to multiple injuries and is now off prescriptions but dealing with a fragile nervous system and digestive system. Thank you.       S: Hi Dr. Cabral. Our 11 year old son still wets the bed from time to time. In fact lately, it's gotten worse. He is top of his class, a heavy reader, extremely inquisitive and very very active and talented in sports. BUT he is small for his age (15th percentile) and hyperactive at times. Any advice would be invaluable. Thanks.       Joy: Hi Dr. C, Thanks for all you do! Let's assume you have a post-menopausal family member who read the book Estrogen Matters and made the decision to go on HRT for benefits to brain, bones and symptom relief. She feels better but still has terribly disruptive sleep. She took the Stress, Mood and Metabolism Test and had values indicating high nighttime cortisol and elevated hormones except DHEA which was out of range low. She's done CBO protocol and has been on the sleep protocol for a month with limited relief. Would you suggest she get off HRT or continue HRT while incorporating something else to get to more optimal ranges or do you think it's mainly the nighttime cortisol that's causing the sleep problems? Seems like both issues may be impacting. No room here to share specific values.       Anonymous: I did tests from EquiLife and am working to reverse my PCOS symptoms. Long story short I still have high testosterone despite working at it for a few years and alleviating a lot of other symptoms. HTMA and OAT showed low vitamins and minerals even though I have been supplementing and eating well for years. So we looked at digestion and stool testing revealed an IGA of 4, low elastase, low propionate, NG for Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus, few commensal bacteria, no dysbiotic flora or yeast. I worked through the mold protocol and am now on the heavy metal. As part of my protocol, I have been doing weekly enemas. I am on month three of doing them weekly and today I passed what I believe was a mucus plug hours afterwards. Is this something to be concerned about? Can I continue enemas?       Jana: 39 female. 3 years w/ your coach I've healed my gut, finished all your protocols & testing.I continue w/ your supplements & suggestions (sauna, walking).I'm struggling with chronic fatigue & inflammation, immunodeficiency, nasal MARCONs (past exposure) & scalp psoriasis.I've had infections most of my life (strep, pneumonia, bronchitis, sinus).Doctors suggested Pepcid + Allegra 4x daily (MCAS) + LDN (hEDS).I'm trying to avoid lifelong biologics + immune therapy.Does your histamine protocol replace/support the suggested Pepcid/Allegra combo for MCAS?What recommendation for rebuilding my immune system?15 of 22 pneumococcal titers are nonprotective despite 3 PPV23 vaccines. I take Histpro + Vit C & Inflamma Soothe + others. Increase dosage? Need guidance on supplementation & what else to try.        Thank you for tuning into today's Cabral HouseCall and be sure to check back tomorrow where we answer more of our community's questions!    - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3830 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

What if the biggest breakthroughs in mental health have nothing to do with chemicals—and everything to do with electricity? In this fascinating conversation, Darin sits down with psychophysiology and brain mapping specialist Rebecca Bassam to explore the electrical nature of the human brain. After surviving multiple traumatic brain injuries herself, Rebecca dedicated her life to understanding how brainwave patterns influence everything from ADHD and anxiety to depression, PTSD, focus, emotional regulation, and peak performance. Together they discuss why traditional mental health often overlooks the brain itself, how brain mapping identifies dysfunctional patterns, why social media instantly pushes us into fight-or-flight, and the promising future of personalized neurotechnology using microcurrent, neurofeedback, biofeedback, light therapy, and frequency-based interventions. If you've ever wondered whether your brain can truly heal, this episode offers an entirely new perspective on what's possible.

Same-day shopping, free teen fitness, and simple tips to help families start the school year on the right foot

Stress eating, procrastination, staying up too late, tolerating the wrong relationships. What if the fix for nearly all of it came down to the same two words? In this episode of DarrenDaily On-Demand, Darren Hardy delivers one deceptively simple answer that can dissolve thousands of the problems and bad habits you keep wrestling with, and leans on a legendary comedy sketch to make it land in a way no therapy session quite manages. This episode dives into why the advice feels almost too easy, and why that is exactly what makes it so effective. The deeper message is about how we get attached to our own drama, and how much of what we call analysis is really just justification. Get more personal mentoring from Darren each day.

Lange Staus auf heißen Autobahnen, schmerzende Füße nach ausgiebigen Städtetrips oder lautstarke Miturlauber im Hotel: Im Urlaub droht statt Erholung schnell mal noch mehr Stress.

Sein Tipp für das stressfreie Urlaubsgefühl auch außerhalb der Ferien: „Auf jeden Fall Handy aus, Klingel aus und dann mal gucken was der Tag so bringt.“

Do cravings, fatigue, or hormonal shifts have you feeling like a stranger in your body? In this episode, I'm joined by Sema Özpekmezci for a grounded, compassionate conversation about chronic illness, women's health, perimenopause, hormones, and what it really means to listen to your body. We explore how midlife changes can feel confusing and how symptoms like cravings, energy dips, mood shifts, and inflammation can become invitations into deeper self-understanding. Sema also shares a powerful way to think about your hormones as the "CEO" of your body and why food, stress, blood sugar, sleep, and nervous system regulation all play a role in helping you feel balanced again. Inside this episode, we explore:

There are three words that quietly end up costing more than almost any bad investment: "he handles it." Not because delegating is wrong, but because somewhere between division of labor and total disengagement, a line gets crossed that most couples never notice until a crisis forces them to. This episode is about that line, and about the less obvious ways money stress shows up when it's not just a spreadsheet problem, it's a physical one. Jill Schlesinger and Kristy Talorico both join the show, and each brings something you didn't know you needed to hear.What You'll Walk Away WithThe real difference between splitting responsibilities and losing all visibility into your own financial lifeA simple, low-stakes way to start a money conversation with a partner who's checked out, without triggering defensivenessWhy financial advisors dread meeting a client's "uninvolved" spouse for the first time after a deathWhat actually happens to your financial life if your money-handling spouse suddenly can't do it anymoreHow financial stress physically changes your body, according to a major new health studyWhy the standard advice to "just put more in your 401k" completely misses people who are financially struggling right nowThe surprising first place financial counselors suggest looking before you take out any kind of loanA behind-the-scenes look at how employers are (and aren't) using workplace benefits to actually help peopleWhy This Matters NowIn your 40s, you're often the connective tissue for your whole household's financial life, sometimes for a spouse, sometimes for aging parents, sometimes for kids just starting out. It's easy to assume that as long as someone in the relationship understands the money, everyone's fine. But real financial confidence means everyone involved has at least a working map of where things stand. This episode isn't about becoming an expert. It's about making sure "I don't really know" is never the answer when it matters most.From the BasementDoug's trivia question drags in an unexpected lesson about knowing what things actually mean, not just recognizing the name, which somehow ties together German car history and financial literacy in the same segment.

On today's episode of The CLS Experience we have a transformative conversation with somatic educator and holistic nutrition expert Luis Mojica about the powerful connection between food, anxiety, stress, trauma, and human performance. Inspired by his book Food Therapy: Conscious Eating to Navigate Anxiety, Stress, and Trauma, Luis breaks down the concept of “food induced stress” and explains how what we eat directly impacts nervous system regulation, emotional resilience, clarity, leadership, and business capacity. Luis shares his framework of depressant, stimulant, and balancing foods, revealing how many high performers unknowingly rely on stimulants like caffeine and sugar that spike adrenaline, increase reactivity, and contribute to burnout. Together, Craig and Luis explore cravings as emotional and physiological signals, the role of shame in eating patterns, and how balancing foods like protein, fats, fiber, beans, and greens can stabilize glucose and support nervous system healing. Luis also opens up about his own trauma and binge eating journey that led him into this work, while offering practical tools around mindful eating, body awareness, glucose monitoring, and recovery. This conversation is eye opening, practical, deeply healing, and filled with wisdom for anyone looking to improve their energy, emotional regulation, and overall quality of life.01:41 Food Stress Explained21:11 Nervous System Ripple23:07 Cravings As Compass30:54 Foods That Spike AnxietyCheck out Luis on Instagram HERE:Check out Luis HERE:Grab Luis's Book HERE:See me speak at Cathy's Event HERE:Early Bird Tickets now available for our October live event, CLS: Formation HERE:To join our community click here.➤ Order a copy of Craig's book The Reinvention Formula today! ➤ Join our CLS texting community for free daily inspiration and wisdom to elevate your life, text (917) 634-3796➤ INSTAGRAM➤ FACEBOOK➤ TIKTOK➤ YOUTUBE➤ WEBSITE➤ LINKEDIN➤ X

"When there's a gap between our intention and our impact, we diminish others and our communication."The best leaders don't succeed because they have all the answers—they succeed because they bring out the best thinking in others. Liz Wiseman, executive advisor, CEO of the Wiseman Group, and author of the million-copy bestseller Multipliers: How the Best Leaders Make Everyone Smarter, has spent years studying why some leaders amplify the intelligence around them while others unintentionally hold people back. In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Wiseman joins Matt Abrahams to explore the habits of multiplier leaders, the subtle ways well-intentioned managers accidentally diminish their teams, and how curiosity, trust, and thoughtful communication create environments where people can do their best work. Together, they share practical strategies for leading with greater impact by aligning your intentions with the experience you create for others.Key Takeaways:Great leaders multiply, not diminish. Create trust, ask more than you tell, and challenge people to do their best thinking instead of stepping in with the answers.Good intentions aren't enough. The most effective communicators pay attention to the impact of their actions, ensuring their support empowers others rather than unintentionally holding them back.Activity:Ask the multiplier question. At the end of your next one-on-one or team meeting, ask: "What do you need from me to do your best work?" Listen without jumping in to solve the problem. Focus on understanding what will help others think, contribute, and perform at their highest level.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Liz WisemanLiz's Book: Multipliers147.

Your body can't tell the difference between anxiety and excitement. The only difference is the story you tell yourself. Kelly McGonigal has spent her career at Stanford studying that story, and how the way you think about stress can quite literally change your biology, your relationships, and how long you live. She will show you why the fear of stress may be more dangerous than stress itself, and why one built in instinct can stop you from burning out completely once you know how to trigger it. You will learn why depression lies to you, why receiving support feels harder than giving it, why your body has a built in brake pedal for temptation, and what a rescue animal can teach you about earning real connection. There is a reason movement changes your brain chemistry more than almost anything else you could choose, and this conversation will make you rethink every hard moment you have ever tried to avoid.

You may want peace, but still feel caught between what you believe and what you experience each day. Dr. Linda Mintle, bestselling author, clinical psychologist, professor, national speaker, and mental health expert, will join us to offer a compassionate guide for understanding, managing, and overcoming anxiety. She will teach us how to slow anxious patterns, quiet racing thoughts, and reconnect with God’s presence in the middle of fear and stress.Become a Parshall Partner: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/inthemarket/partnersSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Stress, burnout, and emotional overload silently derail even the most talented leaders. Today's guest, Dr. Julie Donley, a psychiatric nurse, leadership coach, and author, has transformed decades of personal hardship and frontline experience into practical tools that help leaders become more resilient, emotionally intelligent, and effective with their teams. In this episode of Marketer of the Day, Dr. Julie shares how surviving 17–18 surgeries, serious illness, divorce, single parenting, and financial hardship forged her perspective on change and leadership. Out of that journey came her book, Does Change Have to Be So Hard?, in which she breaks down why change is H.A.R.D. (Habits, Attachment, Resistance, Discouragement) and how to make it E.A.S.Y. using neuroscience, mindset shifts, and simple, repeatable strategies. Instead of getting stuck in “Why me?”, she shows leaders how to ask, “What can I learn from this?” and use adversity as curriculum for growth. Dr. Julie dives into the human side of leadership, how to protect your attention, avoid “shiny object syndrome,” and use clear goals and vision to stay focused in a noisy, fast-paced world. Drawing on her decades in psychiatric nursing and leadership, she explains why emotional intelligence, boundaries, and self-awareness are now competitive advantages, especially as AI and technology accelerate. Her Leading at the Speed of People framework and C.A.R.E. model (Communicate, Appreciate, Respect, Empathize) help leaders create environments where people feel seen, supported, and inspired instead of burned out and checked out. You'll also hear why mentors, coaches, and community are non-negotiable if you want to grow faster and avoid avoidable mistakes. Dr. Julie talks about the danger of negativity, whether from family, coworkers, or social media, and why curating what (and who) you allow into your head is essential for resilience. She shares practical ways to shift from scarcity (“I don't have enough…”) to intentional creation, using mindset, structure, and support systems to move from survival mode to a life and career you're genuinely proud of. https://youtu.be/_E1iBtHOH2c?si=tnbKAU8bv8yNSgv0 If you're a manager suddenly thrust into leadership, a business owner feeling overwhelmed, or a high performer who's quietly burning out, this conversation will give you tools and hope. You'll learn how to define success on your own terms, lead at the speed of people, not just technology, and become “unapologetically you” while creating environments where others can thrive too. Quotes: “You are not alone, even if it feels that way. Your job is to find the mentors, the teachers, and the support that shorten your learning curve.” “Leaders underestimate how hungry people are for attention, nurturing, and simple human kindness.” “I believe we have far more power than we know how to use, and most of us are giving that power away without even realizing it.” Contact Details: Lead with Confidence; Transform Your Leadership Today: Visit the Official Website of Dr. Julie Donley  Follow Dr. Julie Donley on Facebook for Emotional Intelligence Tips, and Practical Strategies Connect with Dr. Julie Donley on LinkedIn for Leadership Insights That Inspire Action Unlock Better Leadership; Subscribe to Dr. Julie Donley on YouTube Get Inspired; Follow Dr. Julie Donley on Instagram Does Change Have to Be So Hard on Amazon

Every dad has been there. Your child says something disrespectful. Your spouse reacts in a way you didn't expect. Stress builds at work, and before you know it, you're responding out of emotion instead of wisdom. But what if there was a simple framework that could help you slow down, take ownership of your thoughts, and respond in a way that honors God? In this episode, we're joined by James Lenhoff to unpack the powerful CTFAR method—a practical tool that's helped countless people navigate conflict, parenting, marriage, work, and even financial decisions with greater clarity and self-control. If you've ever wished you could respond more intentionally instead of reacting in the moment, this conversation will give you a framework you'll use for years to come.

Dr. Lisa Damour and Reena Ninan revisit their conversation with Joanna Schroeder and Christopher Pepper, co-authors of the book “Talk to Your Boys,” to cut through the noise about boys, masculinity, and what's actually happening inside the minds of tween and teen sons..  Joanna brings her background in gender studies and years as Executive Editor of The Good Men Project. Christopher has spent his career as an award-winning health educator teaching thousands of students about emotions, relationships, and healthy masculinity. Together, they share what years of research and real conversations with boys have taught them — and their findings might surprise you.

Dr. William Li is a Harvard-trained physician, co-founder of the Angiogenesis Foundation, and New York Times bestselling author whose work centers on one quietly radical premise: the power to stay healthy lives inside you. In this conversation, we explore the five hardwired defense systems the body runs continuously, angiogenesis, stem cells, the gut microbiome, immunity, and DNA protection, and what it looks like to actually support them through food, sleep, and daily choices.What We Dive Into:1. You are not just one organism. You carry 39 trillion bacteria inside you, many of which send signals up through the vagus nerve directly to the brain, shaping mood, social behavior, and stress levels.2. Your body was born with 70 million extra stem cells stored in bone marrow, ready to mobilize and repair damage whenever called. Sleep, food, and metabolic health directly influence how effectively they do their job.3. The environment is full of things we cannot fully control, microplastics, toxins, pollution. What we can control is whether our internal defense systems are strong enough to handle the load. Chronic stress degrades those systems faster than most environmental exposures.Know Thyself, but not by yourself.

Screens. Sugar. Anything that feels really good. The advice to just "lower the demand" can fall really short because for some kids, more access brings real relief. But for others, more access actually causes more stress and we wind up asking kids to take on a responsibility that is beyond their developmental capacity.  This episode digs into what's actually generating the stress underneath the behavior, and what it looks like when a kid needs to be held steady instead of shifting our expectations.In this episode you will learn:Why high-reward things like screens carry their own built-in stress, and how that changes the question of whether to give more access or lessWhat it looks like when a kid needs the burden of managing something taken off their shoulders entirelyHow to tell if a boundary is actually working: not whether your kid protests, but which direction things are trending over timeIf this is landing for you and you want to map this out for your own kid, come join us in The Club.

Dr. Tartar explains the biological difference between acute stress, chronic stress, and eustress, why worry is a physiological state that releases cortisol, and how perception is the single most powerful variable in whether stress helps or harms you. She walks through the neuroscience of cognitive reframing, the measurable brain benefits of gratitude, and the two-phase sleep cycle that determines how well you process emotions and recover from the day before.  She also covers screen time, electronic boundaries, the physiological impact of nature and movement on the stress response, and practical strategies for helping children navigate catastrophic thinking.

Most leaders spot rudeness or a toxic workplace and rush to shut the behavior down. But incivility is often a symptom of stress, burnout, and something deeper nobody names.Dr. Mira Brancu sat down as a guest on Dr. John O'Brien's show, Civility Matters, and this is the full conversation. They get into why punishing rude behavior usually backfires, and how to tell the difference between the symptom you can see and the root cause you cannot. Mira breaks down organizational grief, the quiet loss people carry after layoffs and reorgs that shows up as disengagement, quiet quitting, and cynicism instead of tears.You will also hear her simple two by two office politics matrix that reveals whether your influence at work has turned self-serving, whether ambition and civility can actually coexist, and real advice for anyone stuck in a toxic job right now. The point they both keep coming back to is this: Leaders have to deal with their own stress first, because you cannot steady anyone else while you are running on empty.Subscribe for weekly conversations on leadership, burnout, and workplace mental health.Connect with Dr. John O'Brien : www.activatesuccess.orgLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnmobrienphd/Host: Civility Matters Podcast: https://civilitymatters.buzzsprout.comRudeness Rehab Book: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1957651911?lv=shuf&channelId=500&plpRedirect=mhFallback YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RudenessRehab Subscribe to my free newsletter at: mailchi.mp/2079c04f4d44/subscribeWork with me one-on-one: calendly.com/mira-brancu/30-minute-initial-consultationConnect with me on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/MiraBrancuLearn more about my services: www.gotowerscope.comGet practical workplace politics tips from my books: gotowerscope.com/booksGet my free Strategic Clarity and Leadership Resilience assessment: https://mailchi.mp/e1ebf8505764/slr-assessment Get my Free Burnout Root Cause Assessment: https://mailchi.mp/29d7d18fae4a/burnout-root-cause-assessmentGet my Workplace Grief Guide: https://mailchi.mp/46873b910380/workplace-grief-field-guide Find other free resources to support your leadership growth: https://gotowerscope.com/other-free-stuff Join the next Towerscope leadership workshop or fellowship: https://gotowerscope.com/fellowship

When your morning falls apart, so does everything else, sister. This week Carrie and Meg pull up a chair for a soul-baring sit-down with the one and only Tiffany Hendra, reality TV alum, transformation coach, and Carrie's Leo sister. What started as a chat about morning routines turned into church, therapy, and a girls' trip all rolled into one.   Tiffany gets real about white-knuckling through menopause and coming out the other side feeling reborn, like she went through the "birthing tunnel" and hit the reset button on her whole life at almost-55. The ladies dig into the hormone hell nobody warns you about: the inflammation, the insulin resistance, the adult acne, the frozen shoulder, and the weight that piles on no matter how hard you Peloton.   But this one goes deeper than hormones. We're talking about the sweaty, yucky, six-weekends-on-the-couch conversations that saved a 22-year marriage. Healing people-pleasing and codependency. Learning to mother yourself after a lifetime of accepting crumbs. And the game-changing truth that your nervous system can only hold so much until you regulate it and watch your whole world explode.   Chapters: 00:00 Just Walk: The Before & After Nobody Believes 01:00 Welcome Tiffany Hendra (On Fumes & Fabulous) 02:00 White-Knuckling Through Menopause at 55 03:00 The Birthing Tunnel & Being Reborn 04:00 Leos, Astrology & All The August Birthdays 06:30 Secretly Shy: The Introvert Behind The Reality Star 07:15 How We Got Divorced Together 09:00 The Hardest Year & Men's Menopause 10:15 How Menopause Healed My People-Pleasing 11:00 Six Weekends of Hard Conversations 12:30 Giving Grace & Processing Differently 15:00 Morning Routine: Learning It From Mama 16:15 Get Your Hormones Under Control NOW 18:00 Why Your Regular Doctor Keeps Saying "You're Fine" 18:45 Stop The 17-Mile Peloton, Just Walk 20:00 Insulin Resistance & Inflammation Ages You 21:00 Autoimmune, Stress & Speaking Life Over Yourself 23:00 Your Morning Routine Starts At Night 24:00 The Digital Detox & Phone Boundaries 26:15 "This Is The Day The Lord Has Made" 27:15 Worship, Aloe Water & Supplements 28:00 Frozen Shoulder, Stretching & The Yoga Nook 29:15 Tuning In: Don't Sleep On Journaling 30:30 The Boss Move: Megan's $5M Divorce Diet 31:15 Your Nervous System Can't Hold That Wealth 33:00 More In Three Years Than Eighteen 34:00 NBC, 7/7 & The Number Girl 35:00 Rock Bottom Is Different For Everyone 36:00 One Year, One Fourth Of July, A Whole New Life 37:15 The Healthy Walk Away 37:45 Megan's Story: Surviving The Unthinkable 38:45 Learning To Love Myself For The First Time 39:30 Done Accepting Crumbs & The Bare Minimum 41:00 Staying Sovereign & Leaving The Victim Behind 41:45 Reframing "Finding Your Voice" 43:00 Knowing Yourself Is The Whole Journey 44:45 The Sweet Voice That Set The Tone 46:00 Hot Or Homeless: Menopause Fashion Real Talk  

In this E462 of Inner Voice A heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan, Dr. Foojan sits down with Jennifer (Jen) Stanford — trust coach, keynote speaker, CEO of Emergent Performance Solutions, and author of *De-Stressed* — to explore chronic stress, leadership pressure, emotional resilience, and personal transformation. Jen shares the deeply personal story behind writing *De-Stressed*: how years spent helping organizations navigate change eventually exposed her own unmanaged stress. While leading teams, raising a family, and striving to excel at every role, she ignored the warning signs until a serious health crisis forced her to rethink everything she believed about success and wellbeing. Together, Jen and Dr. Foojan unpack why stress touches every part of our lives — physical health, relationships, leadership, decision-making — and why managing it isn't just about exercise or time off, but about restoring balance across four energy systems: intellectual, physical, emotional, and purposeful. The conversation moves into perfectionism, people-pleasing, and Jen's four stress response perspectives (logical, relationship-oriented, action-oriented, organized) — and how understanding them transforms teams, workplaces, and families. If you've ever felt overwhelmed, exhausted, or trapped in the pressure to achieve more, this episode is a reminder that success doesn't have to come at the expense of your peace. **⏱️ Timestamps** 0:00 – The image of inner voice 1:25 – Welcome to Inner Voice with Dr. Foojan 1:58 – Meet Jennifer Stanford 4:10 – The IAII Virtual Clinic 5:31 – Jennifer joins the conversation 5:44 – Why Jen wrote *De-Stressed* 7:06 – The story behind the book 8:20 – The health crisis that changed everything 9:06 – Pressure vs. stress 10:59 – The mind-body connection 12:15 – Learning to actually release stress, not just manage it 14:01 – The four energy systems 15:00 – Letting go of perfectionism and control 16:30 – Fear of image vs. fear of failure 17:42 – The four stress response perspectives 17:54 – The logical perspective 21:01 – Relationship, action-oriented & organized perspectives 22:20 – Why leaning into your *least* natural response relieves stress 26:56 – Applying this to teams and families 29:05 – Creating space as a leader 31:00 – Energy as currency — and why it's contagious 32:56 – Reading your team's and family's stress patterns 38:01 – Two pathways forward: therapy and coaching at IAII 38:53 – Stop wearing stress like a badge of honor 40:08 – Where to find Jennifer Stanford 41:04 – Closing thoughts **Connect with us:** awarenessintegration.com | www.iaii.life Topics Covered: .

Successful entrepreneurs aren't always stressed because they're doing too much. Sometimes they're stressed because of what they believe success requires. In this episode, Lisa unpacks three common perceptions that keep entrepreneurs overwhelmed, overextended, and operating from an overactive nervous system. She challenges us to rethink complexity, responsibility, and what it truly means to feel safe and successful. If you're working harder than ever but still feeling stuck, this conversation may reveal what's really driving the stress.  

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for July 19, 2026 is: accentuate • ak-SEN-shu-wayt • verb To accentuate something is to make it more noticeable. // He likes to wear clothes that accentuate his muscular build. See the entry > Examples: “My mother could make me anything I wanted to be. As a child she transformed me into a swan, a mermaid, a white Persian cat dressed like an elegant Victorian lady with a porkpie hat and a ruffled bustle to accentuate my tail. She'd trained as a costume designer.” — Perdita Finn, Mothers of Magic: Summoning the Wisdom of Our Ancestors, 2026 Did you know? When you accentuate something you put an “accent,” or emphasis, on it. Stress not about the word's history; its journey into the English language was very straightforward. It comes from the Latin accentus, meaning “accent” (which itself comes in part from cantus, meaning “song”), and since the early 18th century, its meanings haven't changed much. The word was initially used as a synonym of the verb accent to mean “to pronounce with greater stress or force,” which is a small leap from today's meaning of “to make something more noticeable; to emphasize.” One excellent way to remember not only how to pronounce accentuate but also its etymological connection to song is the classic (and helpfully titled) tune “Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate the Positive,” by Harold Arlen and Johnny Mercer, which has been performed by such luminaries as Dinah Washington, Sam Cooke, and Bing Crosby and the Andrews Sisters.

Gabor Maté, MD, is renowned for his work on addiction, stress, trauma, and understanding and healing from illness. He has written several books, including The Myth of Normal. As part of a special series of sorts this month, I'm turning back to a conversation I had with him a few years ago about his perspective on the relationship between how we live, the culture we live in, and our health.

Chat, are we cooked? Julia is joined by friend and mentor Dr. Jack Keefe to explore the ongoing epidemic of AI psychosis and the dire consequences of having a sycophant in our pocket. They trace the history of how technology has repeatedly reshaped our understanding of reality, from medieval nobles who believed their bodies were made of glass, telegraph operators struck by sudden paralysis, and tech moguls convinced they're living in The Matrix. Digressions include questioning the humanity of Mr. Beast, the stay tethered to reality challenge, and The Truman Show as a psychotic touchstone. This episode was produced by Julia Hava and Kylie Finnigan and edited by Livi Burdette.  Check out Jack's work here: https://jack-keefe.com/ WE'RE GOING ON TOUR!!!!
