Stress and pressure aren’t as unavoidable as you think. According to Dr. Brian Hite, performance psychologist, stuntman and resilience coach, the key to thriving in high-stakes situations is already in your control — and easier to tap into than you realize.
In this episode, we explore the science of resilience and challenge the idea that stress and pressure are essential for peak performance. Dr. Brian explains the difference between stress and pressure, why long-term change is hard to achieve, and how a simple mindset shift can transform the way you handle stress. Join us for a deep dive into resilience that will redefine how you approach stress and pressure!
