How Isabelle Tierney Uses Stress Management Strategies to Build a Resilient Life
Episode 27
In this episode of Innovate and Overcome, Isabelle Tierney, a licensed marriage and family therapist and stress management expert, joins us to share her transformative approach to overcoming burnout and building a life of resilience. Isabelle opens up about her journey from running a successful therapy practice to facing severe burnout that impacted her health and relationships. She describes how her personal experience with trauma, eating disorders, and her eventual health challenges led her to develop a practical, science-backed methodology for managing stress and creating long-term well-being.
Isabelle discusses the critical role of awareness in recognizing stress triggers and explains her choice point methodology—a three-step system designed to help individuals intercept stress responses and replace destructive habits with empowering ones. By exploring physical, emotional, mental, and relational signals of stress, Isabelle teaches how to identify the early signs of burnout and offers simple yet effective habits to bring yourself back to a state of balance.
Through relatable examples, Isabelle outlines the importance of foundational practices like proper nutrition, restorative activities, and boundaries, as well as moment-to-moment tools for immediate stress regulation. She also emphasizes the need for collaboration and communication in relationships, sharing how these principles helped her repair her marriage after divorce and build a stronger connection with her family.
Listeners will gain actionable insights into tracking their stress levels, prioritizing self-care, and building resilience. Isabelle’s practical framework is enriched by her candid reflections on personal growth and how anyone can transition from a state of chronic stress to living a life of purpose, joy, and peace.
