How to avoid burnout and improve your performance: Chris Wilson

“The key thing is, we don't want to stop the stress response in the body. If we're in highly competitive environments like real estate, we need the accelerative response. We just want to have the tools and the techniques to de-intensify those early stress warning signs quicker.” Chris Wilson

It’s hardly a secret that real estate has the potential to be a stressful profession. Regardless of whether you work in property management or sales, the industry requires its members to operate at peak performance while negotiating with multiple parties.

In this episode of the Elevate podcast, Chris walks through the physiology of the stress response and offers tools, strategies and techniques that both leaders and individuals can use to reduce its impact.

From simple techniques to daily habits, he offers an essential guide to mitigating stress while honing in on the warning signs that everyone should address.
