82. Reframing STRESS : an interview with Kelly McGonigal, PhD
Episode 82
Tuesday, 7 September, 2021

What if the most detrimental thing about stress was dictated by what we THINK about stress? Even crazier, what if REFRAMING our mindset around stress actually made us healthier, happier and more resilient? On this week's episode it is my distinct honor to have interviewed Stanford psycologist, author, and dance teacher Kelly McGonigal, PhD. Author of the game-changing book "The Upside of Stress" (among others!), Kelly and I deep-dive into all things STRESS: how it got it's bad wrap and how embracing stress can make us stronger, more resilient, and more fulfilled people, and how to cultivate the mindset to do so. Life is full of stressors, it means we've got something we care about. What if we learned to embrace it and allow it to grow us, to make us more compassionate and fulfilled? I hope you'll love this conversation as much as I did! About the Author: Kelly McGonigal is a health psychologist who specializes in understanding the mind-body connection. She is the best-selling author of The Willpower Instinct and The Upside of Stress. Her latest book, The Joy of Movement, explores why physical exercise is a powerful antidote to the modern epidemics of depression, anxiety, and loneliness.
