Most of us think of stress as something to avoid—a challenge or a burden. But what if we’ve been looking at it all wrong? What if stress is actually a tool that can help us live longer, be happier, and healthier?

I’m honored to moderate this enlightening conversation with Dr. Sharon Horesh Bergquist on "The Stress Paradox," where we explore how embracing certain types of stress can enhance vitality, resilience, and performance. Rather than something to fear or burn out over, stress can become a source of growth, motivation, and strength once we shift the way we think about it.

We’ll also discuss real-life examples and practical ways to harness stress positively.

Questions for you, our listeners:

What positive impacts of stress have you experienced?

What did those experiences teach you about your own capabilities?

Join the conversation, and share your thoughts! We’d love to hear from you!

Dr. Yanick Hicks, your host and moderator.
