From understanding the science of stress to developing a relationship with your future self, Nico explains how to turn your deepest pain into your most powerful motivation.

About Nico Verresen:
Key Takeaways:
Stress isn’t your enemy—your belief about it is. Changing your mindset about stress can literally change your biology and improve long-term health, success, and relationships.
Your greatest pain holds your biggest power. Nico shares how heartbreak and depression led him to deeper self-awareness and purpose.
Visualize both futures: Creating mental images (or actual portraits) of your “unchanged self” vs. your “potential self” sharpens motivation and clarity.
The hero’s journey is within you. Ask yourself and others about hero stories—narratives where hardship sparked personal growth.
Reconnect with your 'observing self'. Tuning into the part of you that notices, rather than reacts, brings true emotional freedom.
