The Arousal Curve (not as smutty as it might sound 🙂 )

This podcast explores the science of growth, performance and discomfort. Using principles like the Yerkes-Dodson Law, we unpack why too little pressure leads to stagnation, too much leads to burnout, and the real progress happens in between. Through psychology, neuroscience and lived experience, we explore how to intentionally step beyond your comfort zone and build sustainable high performance.
