In this episode I share with you a chapter from a book called Burnout written by Emily and Amelia Nagoski.  The chapter is called ”The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle”.  There are some things regarding stress that have changed dramatically over the decades and there are some things that have remained remarkably the same. I review the different kinds of stressors we have in the modern day as well as talk about how we can learn to process our stress.   I am especially excited that there are many different options presented and hopefully, there will be away for everybody.
