EP286: Why Stress is Your Secret Weapon with Erik Korem

Forget what you've been told: stress isn't always a bad thing. In fact, it can actually help you grow. But how? Here to tell us why is Dr. Erik Korem. Erik has trained everyone from NFL and NCAA athletes, and Olympic gold medalists, to the U.S. Department of Defense. Today, Erik joins me to share his top tips for how to deal with stress in your mind, body, and relationships. Stress isn't the enemy. It's the gateway to growth!

About Erik

Fueled by a deep-rooted desire to help others live a more fulfilled and healthy life, [Dr. Erik Korem] is an applied performance scientist that leaves every person or place he interacts with better than he found it. During the nearly 20 years he spent working with establishments like the NFL, NCAA, Nike, and U.S. Dept of Defense, it’s easy to see he didn’t let a single day go to waste.

Similarly, as a [Presidential Leadership Scholar] that holds a doctorate in exercise science with a research emphasis on sleep and stress resilience, he’s leveraged his education and platform to provide others with tangible health insights by writing for media outlets like [Inc.] and conducting impactful interviews with notable experts and athletes on his podcast [The BluePrint].

While Erik’s relentless pursuit of high performance has come with its fair share of obstacles, it was also preparing him for his biggest challenge to date; *entrepreneurship*.

He became the Founder and CEO of [AIM7] in 2020, pouring his expertise into an app that analyzes users' data and provide custom recommendations for enhancing the mind, body, and recovery process. Leveraging the science of adaptive capacity, Erik and his team are unlocking a new level of human performance for anyone with a wearable device — so they can be their best without burning out.
