Is Stress Really A Choice: Our conversation with Louise Sanders

In this week's episode, we speak to Louise Sanders in a provocative conversation on stress, farming, and the idea of "Is Stress Really A Choice?"

Louise is a speaker, a trainer, and a stress consultant with The Stress Experts, a business that she created to help people conquer stress. As we all know, 2019 has been a tremendously tough farming year for many farmers, causing a lot of...you guessed it...stress. Our goal here on The Impact Farming Show is to bring our audience the people and ideas that will IMPACT their farming operation, and we could not think of a more impactful topic than stress. I think most farmers can agree that farming is stressful. Not only are there seasonal periods of intense stress levels, but farmers also tend to face year around stressors, including; weather, pests/disease concerns, market fluctuations, politics, policy changes, and activism. We can then move into a whole host of financial management related matters, including cash flow, interest rates, and so on.

Louise has earned her Bachelor of Medical Rehabilitation, Physical Therapy at the University of Manitoba in 2009. Besides being a Certified HeartMath Trainer, she is also certified in a variety of alternative therapies. Most importantly, she is passionate about helping individuals conquer stress, not just manage it, so they can FEEL better, DO better, and BE better.

If you have ever found yourself feeling stressed, you will not want to miss this episode where Tracy and Louise explore what stress is, what causes stress, and how we can "simply" choose not to become stressed. Everything that you thought you knew about stress might just be tossed out the combine window in this episode.
