If you've ever wondered what can explain the different states of your performance, from feeling stuck or paralyzed to feeling creatively and energetically in flow or on fire, the answers are all inside this episode with my special guest Taylor Jacobson. Taylor gives us a masterclass on the relationship between productivity and the nervous system. Listen in to gain a deeper understanding of why we react to stress the way that we do.

Thousands of people in 193 countries worldwide sit side-by-side, via video, to keep each other company, cheer each other on, and hold one another accountable. Taylor has been featured in The New Yorker, CNN, The Guardian, NPR, Fast Company, Bloomberg Businessweek, and many more.
