In Episode 3 of Life in Motion: The Parkinson’s Podcast, Bryce and Brian tackle one of the biggest questions in the Parkinson’s community: does stress actually make symptoms worse? From shaky hands in stressful moments to full-body stiffness that won’t let up, they break down the science, share personal stories, and even admit a few not-so-graceful stress reactions.
You’ll hear about:
- Why stress and anxiety amplify Parkinson’s symptoms
- Real-life stories of “meltdowns” and what we learned from them
- How cortisol and adrenaline play a role in motor and non-motor symptoms
- Practical strategies for managing stress when Parkinson’s piles on
- The funny side of losing your cool (because laughter is stress relief)
This episode is a mix of honesty, science, and humor — proving that even though stress is unavoidable, there are ways to keep it from stealing more than it should.

"With Parkinson’s, stress isn’t just in your head — it shows up in your body too. The trick is learning how to laugh before it locks you up."
