Description: Welcome to another insightful episode of our podcast. Today, we're thrilled to have with us Allison, a formidable force in the world of personal development, mental health, and resilience. Often described by her clients as ‘tough love wrapped in an empathetic hug,’ Allison is a pragmatic optimist with a knack for identifying patterns in human behavior and designing frameworks that enable busy professionals to enhance their skills, mental well-being, and everyday resilience.

In our candid conversation, Allison uncovers the concept of 'The Stress Illusion,' from her forthcoming fifth book, where she challenges the lies that keep us stressed. As we delve deeper, we discuss 'Personal Capacity Design' – a breakthrough concept that Allison has championed to help individuals prevent the suffocating stress of success. We discuss how this revolutionary method can have a profound impact on our mental health, happiness, and career success.

A burning question among many leaders today is: "Should I quit my job or business due to the overwhelming stress?" Allison provides her seasoned insights on this, offering a fresh perspective on why you might not need to quit after all.
