Aimed especially at first responders, this episode teaches you to spot your earliest physical cues, jaw tightening, throat constriction, shoulders or stomach clenching, then act early with practical tools. Learn when to use distraction, how to move your focus to cool your system, why not to call the perpetually angry friend, and how to reframe your self talk so you are not winding yourself up. Dr. Price-Sharps connects the dots between chronic stress chemistry and real health impacts, inflammation, high blood pressure, reflux, irritable bowel, sleep apnea, and mood crashes that can feel like depression. You will build a simple plan you can use anywhere, Home Depot included, give yourself permission to feel good, and choose responses that keep you steady across time.
