LIVE Breathwork for High Performers: Your Nervous System Has Reached Its Threshold w/ Kindra Fox (LST #166) - Real Business Connections - Self-Discovery For Entrepreneurs | Lyssna här

Learn Speak Teach Episode #166 with Kindra Fox on the Real Business Connections Podcast.

Your nervous system was not built to run on overload forever.

In this episode, Ben Albert sits down with Kindra Fox for a real conversation and live breathwork experience about high performance, stress, anxiety, nervous system regulation, burnout, and what happens when your body finally says, “enough.”

Ben opens up about a scary moment where his body felt like it completely hard reset after months of doing too much, pushing too hard, and carrying too much stress. Kindra explains why so many high performers, entrepreneurs, and risk-takers are feeling shut down, disconnected, and unsupported by their own bodies.

They talk about breathwork, meditation, the window of tolerance, emotional regulation, lung capacity, sustainable success, and why breathwork is not just a crisis tool. It is a practice you build before the crisis.

Then Kindra guides Ben through a live breathwork session on the show.

This episode is practical, personal, and different. It is about learning how to breathe, regulate, slow down, and expand your capacity so you can grow without burning yourself out.

This conversation is not medical advice and is not meant to diagnose anything. It is an honest look at breathwork, nervous system regulation, and what happens when your body asks you to listen.
