In this episode of Sufferless with a Part-Time Monk, Tim Tamashiro explores why peace doesn’t come naturally—and why that’s not your fault. From the almond-sized amygdala that runs your stress response to a rare neuroscience case study of a woman who literally cannot feel fear, this episode dives into how your brain is wired for survival, not serenity.

You’ll learn the three stages of the Sufferless Shift—Default, Deliberation, and Design—and how each stage brings you closer to a life of greater calm, clarity, and choice. If you've ever wondered why you're so reactive, why calm people seem like unicorns, or if you can actually train your way to peace… this episode is for you.

Peace isn’t a personality trait—it’s a practice. And with the right tools, you can build a life where your calm shows up even when life gets loud.

Listen in to learn:

• Why your brain defaults to panic (and how to notice it)
• What we can learn from a woman born without fear
• How to train your mind for presence instead of reactivity
• Simple design tools that reinforce peace in your daily life

Peace is possible—with practice.
