EP 12: Cortisol, Coffee & Chaos: Breaking Stress Patterns That Steal Your Sleep and Memory

Fatigue. Brain fog. Restless nights.

Most men over 60 are told this is “just aging.” The truth? It’s not.

In this episode, Steve Adams breaks down how cortisol—the body’s stress hormone—when mismanaged, silently ages you 6–10 years faster. You’ll discover how coffee, stress, and chaos create a destructive loop that wrecks sleep, memory, and recovery… and most importantly, how to break free from it.

Whether you’ve recently exited your business or are stepping into your next chapter, this is the science-backed roadmap to reclaim your sharpness, vitality, and legacy.

  4. Why standard labs miss stress dysfunction—and what advanced testing reveals
  5. Real-world results from Tiger clients who cut stress by 70% and improved sleep by 2+ hours
