Is stress always the enemy? What if some stress could make you healthier and help you live longer?

In this fascinating conversation, Dr. Sharon Horesh Bergquist—a physician, researcher, and longevity expert—unpacks the paradox of stress. You’ll learn how certain types of stress, in just the right amounts, can kickstart cellular regeneration, enhance brain resilience, and improve overall well-being.

We explore:

·      How your body uses cortisol to adapt—and when it backfires

·      Why your mitochondria hold the secret to energy, aging, and healing

·      The powerful effects of phytochemicals in fighting stress at the cellular level

·      Surprising science behind kindness, forgiveness, and their link to reduced chronic stress

·      What it means to “dispose of unhealthy cells” and regenerate healthy ones

If you're ready to rethink stress and unlock a biologically younger, more resilient you—this episode is your roadmap.

Tune in now to discover the healing side of stress—and how to harness it for a badass, vibrant life.
