The Superhumanize Podcast The Hidden Power of Stress: Jeff Krasno on The Science of Good Stress & Longevity
What if everything we’ve been taught about stress is wrong? What if, instead of being the enemy, stress could actually be the key to unlocking our resilience, longevity, and purpose?
Today's guest, Jeff Krasno, has built his life around reimagining wellness. As the co-founder of Commune, he’s created a global platform for transformational learning. He’s also the visionary behind Luminescence, an event that’s redefining women’s health and longevity—and one I had the pleasure of experiencing firsthand. And now, with his latest book, Good Stress: The Health Benefits of Doing Hard Things, he’s challenging everything we think we know about stress and how it shapes us.
In this conversation, we’ll dive into how discomfort can actually be a superpower, the overlooked connection between metabolic health and mental well-being, and what it really takes to build a life—and a community—that thrives. Let’s get into it.
