This week’s guest is Ben Curtis – an internationally recognized actor, musician, public speaker, mental health advocate, and life coach. But you’ll probs recognize him from the infamous: “Dude, you’re getting a Dell!” commercials.

Nowadays Ben’s mantra is Dude, You’re Getting Well! (also the name of his podcast).

As a creative person, I know you put yourself out there ALL THE TIME which means you face high-highs & low-lows AKA abundance & rejection are part of the deal.

So I invited Ben to drop by the show to share his tools for self-care, compassion, and healing… or as he describes it: The Upside of Stress! 

And let me tell you, the dude did not disappoint:

• Unlock stress’s positive side effects to stay in the game
• Normalize stress → it’s an integral part of creativity
• Train your mind to reframe stress – this way you won’t hide under the covers when things get tuff 

This episode gives you real tools to navigate the *potentially* stressful holiday season plus this way you can look Aunt Janet in the eye when she asks you: How’s that artistic-life thing going?

And... Ben totally had me break character; he turned the tables and got me to talk about my own personal flavor of stress… And I’m pretty sure you’ll see yourself in this story!
