Part 2 of our Burnout Series: Understanding the Stress Cycle

Ever notice how some people seem to handle stress better than others? In this episode, I break down the crucial difference between stressors (the external stuff we can't control) and stress (our body's response that we CAN manage).

I explain why both control freaks and avoiders get it wrong when dealing with stress, and break down the three parts of the stress cycle that you need to understand:

·       The Beginning: Recognizing the threat

·       The Middle: Taking action (even when you don't feel like it)

·       The End: Acknowledging when you're safe

Here's the thing: you're going to face dozens, maybe hundreds, of stressors every day. But you don't have to let them pile up like juggling balls until everything crashes down.

Listen in to learn how to complete the stress cycle so you can handle work pressure without burning out. Plus, I share why your brain actually prefers staying stressed (weird, right?) and what to do about it.
