Summary

In this episode, Annie was pleased to be joined by the author of The Upside of Stress, Dr. McGonigal. She has been embracing stress in a way that our culture shies away from.

Tune in to hear all about society’s false belief around stress and what truly happens to our bodies when we feel stressed out. Plus, Annie and Dr. McGonigal discuss what healthy vs unhealthy coping mechanisms are and why alcohol is no longer a part of either of their lives.

THIS NAKED MIND: NICOTINE

Here’s a question I get quite often: Annie, do you think your science-backed, grace led approach to alcohol could work for other things? Things like nicotine? People have asked me this question for years and the answer is a resounding yes! And, finally, there’s a book for that. William Porter, author of Alcohol Explained, and I have joined forces to bring you This Naked Mind: Nicotine - We have combined our proven, habit-breaking systems that have helped thousands overcome alcohol to now help people quit smoking and vaping. Start your no-nicotine journey today by pre-ordering This Naked Mind: Nicotine at ThisNakedMindNicotine.com.

And as always, rate, review and subscribe to this podcast as it truly helps the message reach somebody who might need to hear it today.
