How often do you catch yourself saying you're stressed to others? Are you in a constant state of stress? 

If you answered yes, then this episode is definitely for you. We dive into what Stress actually is and the common ways that it presents itself (albeit emotionally or physically). We discuss the major causes of stress in our lives by sharing some of our personal experiences, and finally end the episode with our recommendations on how to manage stress (we even bring light to stoicism and its principals). 

Stress + your mental health should be taken seriously, so here are some useful resources to anyone that is struggling at the moment:
