"I was so proud of myself, I forgot to be anxious." - Bec Munro
In this episode I interview Rebecca (Bec) Munro, an executive leader in Health, Safety and Environment. Bec shares her inspiring journey from Australia to Hawaii, describing a profound moment at Kualoa Ranch that sparked her decision to relocate.
She discusses her transition from paramedic work to health and safety leadership, highlighting the challenges and growth opportunities along the way. Bec opens up about her struggles with high-functioning anxiety and how she's worked to overcome it. A particularly powerful story involves her cross-country drive in the US, where she faced her fears head-on during a tornado encounter.
This experience became a turning point in her journey to manage anxiety. Bec emphasizes the importance of self-care and prioritizing mental health, sharing how this focus has positively impacted both her personal life and her family.
We touched on Bec's upcoming venture into coaching executives and professionals dealing with anxiety, showcasing her commitment to helping others based on her own experiences. Her story is a testament to the power of embracing change, facing fears, and finding purpose through life's pivots and challenges.
Three Key Takeaways!
Acknowledge your limits: Recognize when you're reaching your mental or physical capacity.
Prioritize self-care: Integrate small, consistent self-care practices into your daily routine.
Communicate openly: Don't be afraid to talk about your challenges with others.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
