About this episode
Dr. Sharon Bergquist—Harvard-trained physician, Emory researcher, and author of The Stress Paradox—joins Longevity Junky to flip the script on everything we thought we knew about stress. Discover how good stress (yes, it exists!) can supercharge your cellular health, build resilience, and even slow down biological aging. From cold exposure and intermittent fasting to emotional challenges that light you up, this episode explores the science of hormesis and the “Goldilocks zone” of stress for optimal longevity.
