Lots of people are dealing with stress in our lives. Some of us are overloaded now, and many more have been there in the past.

Is there a way of relating to stress that is different, and that brings with it a new freedom?

Raf couldn’t make it this week- airline schedules can be rough on the family, and getting the three guys together across the globe s a challenge at the best of times. Melon and Mike carry on the chat this time and look forward to seeing Raf next week.

Mike and Melon have both dealt with significant stress on professional and personal levels, and have a conversation around reframing the way we think about the entire topic.

What if we could shift the feeling of stress into one where we see opportunity, challenge and growth?

Melon talks about looking for ways to either shift your mindset, or to take action to change the environment. Sometimes we need to power through, but sometimes we need to address fundamentals, or take a knee for some healing. 

Mike talks about preparing his life before the “bang”, or stressful event occurs. He prepares his environment and culture; marshals resources; gets into communication; and identifies allies. These four steps bring clarity around the best and worst case, which in turn reduces surprise and shock when the stressful event occurs.

Let us know how you relate to stress, and whether you have used these, or other techniques to shift your relationship to it.
