If you've felt like you're living life defaulting instead of deciding, this episode is about stress and how it limits your choices. Chronic stress and being overwhelmed impact how you feel, change how you move, what you reach for, and what you're able to see. You're not stuck, you’re stressed.

We talk about the science of stress and decision-making, why a regulated baseline changes everything, and the reason I bring mental health into a low-tox space… because you can't make more intentional choices about your health, your products, or your life when you're tapped out. The overwhelmed version of you and the regulated version of you operate differently.

This episode will leave you with a question to help you reflect on what stress relief is best for you.
