About this listen
Stress today doesn’t come from one bad day, one deadline, or one problem.
For many people, it never really turns off.
In this episode, Luis Rivera explores why modern stress has become chronic rather than situational—and why rest alone often doesn’t fix it. Drawing from traditional Chinese medicine, energy awareness, and real-world observation, this conversation helps make sense of why so many people feel tired, wired, overwhelmed, or emotionally drained even when life seems “manageable.”
You’ll learn:
The difference between situational stress and chronic stress
Why the nervous system rarely gets a true off-switch anymore
How chronic stress affects the body, mind, and energy system
Why sleep and time off don’t always lead to recovery
What awareness—not force—can begin to shift
This episode isn’t about pushing through or fixing yourself.
It’s about understanding what your system has been responding to all along.
If you’ve been feeling exhausted without a clear reason, this conversation may help you see stress—and yourself—more clearly.
