FASTer Way Podcast

Welcome back to another enriching session of Coach Confessionals, where Le and I peel back the layers on stress management.

This week, we're building on the incredible insights from Dr. Sara Godfried about cortisol and perceived stress, answering the burning questions from our community. Join us as we unpack the three M's—movement, meditation, and mindset—and share our top tips for dealing with daily stressors. From the challenges of running a bustling company to maintaining family harmony, we reveal practical strategies that help keep our heads above water.

Listen in as we delve into the complexities of stress, differentiating between the pressures we impose on ourselves and the genuine hurdles life throws our way. You'll hear how being proactive and learning from every experience shapes our perception of stress, and why having a network of experienced peers, along with therapy, can be a game-changer.

I share the life-altering effects of simple activities like breathwork and walking, illustrating how these practices can manage stress and bolster mental resilience. Our conversation also underscores the vital role of nutrition in hormonal balance, with a focus on cortisol and how it responds to different stressors.
