Hey, it's your friend Mel, and welcome to the Mel Robbins Podcast. I just read this crazy statistic. It kind of blew my mind, but at the same time, it made a ton of sense. And I think it's going to make a lot of sense to you too. And it's this. Based on research, 70% of us right now are living our lives in a state of chronic stress. And this isn't just a feeling.
What you're going to learn today is that this is actually a medical condition. It's a physiological state when you feel chronically stressed out. And so I want you to hear something.

This is why you're so tired.

And today we're gonna do something really cool because today Dr. Aditi is going to unpack her research and she's going to teach you that there are three things that are happening in the world around you that are largely out of your control. that are creating this condition of stress in you. But then she's going to give you the good news.
