In this episode, we look at stress not just as an external pressure, but more as a nervous system response—something shaped by perception, emotion, energy, and capacity.To help unpack all of this, we’re joined by Dr. Anissa Cordova, PhD, a psychotherapist and resilience coach specializing in stress regulation and emotional wellbeing.

And honestly, what makes her perspective so valuable is that it’s not just theoretical. It’s super practical, deeply compassionate, and focused on tools people can actually use in everyday life.In this episode, we explore:Stress: Understanding How the Nervous System RespondsResilience: Building Capacity and RecoveryHow to Stabilize Your Nervous System and Manage Stress in Everyday LifeSimple Daily Practices to Support Your Nervous System and Stay GroundedWhy Managing Your Energy Matters More Than Avoiding StressShe shares simple, grounded tools to help you understand stress and calm your nervous system in real time—because while stress is universal, how you respond to it can change how life feels from the inside out.If this resonates, keep listening to hear the full conversation and start applying these tools right away.Connect with Dr. Anissa :Website: anissacordovaphd.comConnect with me:Instagram: doctorfrancavillaFacebook: Help Your Patients Lose Weight with Dr. FrancavillaWebsite: Dr. Francavilla ShowYoutube: The Doctor Francavilla ShowGLP Strong: glpstrong.com
