You say you’re fine… but your body says otherwise.


In this episode of The Say Yes Experience, Jessica is joined by Carole Spiers—global stress management authority and founder of International Stress Awareness Week—to cut through the chaos and get to the root of what stress is really doing to your life.


From feeling wired and overwhelmed to struggling with sleep, relationships, and decision-making, this conversation exposes how everyday stress sneaks in, stacks up, and steals your sense of control.


The breakdown:

  • The critical difference between stress and burnout
  • Why so many high-achievers ignore early warning signs
  • The most common triggers causing stress in today’s world
  • How to take practical steps before your system shuts down


If you’ve ever told yourself, “I’ll rest when things calm down,” this is your sign: they won’t. And stress doesn’t go away on its own.

It's time to get real about stress.
