“Hope is not a plan in and of itself. Hope is a good beginning to believe that there can be a better way, but you have to take action.” -Valerie Raver

In this first episode, we will be talking about stress. But, you might ask, what does stress have to do with our common sense? Stress and common sense are two things that don't seem to go together very well. Common sense is all about knowing what you need to do in order to get through the day without too much trouble. Stress, on the other hand, can make you feel like you're having a bad day even when there isn't anything particularly wrong with what's going on around you—or like nothing is ever good enough anymore, no matter how hard you try to make it better.
Everybody is stressed about something. Therefore, we want to pay attention to this pandemic NOW. Join Ann as she interviews Certified FDN Practitioner and personal health coach, Valerie Raver. Ann and Valerie talk about what stress really is, how to recognize the different types of stress, what factors contribute to our stress, and ultimately, how we can minimize stress in our lives.
