## Resource

We’re told to push through, tolerate more, optimise harder, but that version of resilience is what leads many people straight into burnout. In this final episode of the stress series on The Goode Health Podcast, we redefine what stress resilience actually means and explain why real resilience is built through nervous system regulation and recovery, not endurance. 00:50 – What Stress Resilience Really Means 03:20 – Why Stress Recovery Is Not Linear 07:10 – Why Sequencing Matters in Burnout Recovery 08:00 – Phase 1: Safety (The Foundation of Nervous System Healing) 09:20 – Phase 2: Regulation (Restoring Nervous System Flexibility) 10:30 – Phase 3: Capacity (Rebuilding Stress Resilience Safely) 12:00 – Why You Feel Stuck: Optimisation Before Regulation 14:30 – The 5 Common Stress Recovery Mistakes 17:00 – Guided Stress Recovery: How The Studio Supports Nervous System Regulation If you’re recovering from chronic stress or burnout, this episode will help you understand why stress recovery is not linear, why you may feel worse before you feel better, and why pushing harder delays healing. We also explore why high-intensity tools (like intense exercise, fasting, cold exposure or aggressive optimisation) can backfire when your nervous system is depleted.
