In this episode, I’m diving into the emotional rollercoaster of sending a missionary into the field and handling the stress that follows. We’ll explore how our nervous system can sometimes confuse minor issues with major crises, leaving us feeling overwhelmed and anxious.

I’ll break down the basics of the nervous system, including the "fight or flight" and "rest and digest" responses. Plus, I’ll share expert insights and practical techniques to help you calm your nerves when everything feels like it’s on fire.

By the end of this episode, you’ll know how to tell the difference between “burned toast” moments and real emergencies, and you’ll have some simple tools to manage your stress and anxiety.

Key Takeaways:

• The nervous system’s role in stress and how it affects you.
• How to distinguish between minor stressors and real challenges.
• Techniques for calming your nerves during tough times.
• Building a support system to help you cope.
