In this episode of the Day In Day Out podcast, I talked with Rui da Silva, a holistic coach and stress and fatigue expert. Rui talks about his journey from being a high-level executive in the satellite industry to founding a balanced rebel as well as winning the Holistic Coach of the Year award. He shares insights on how dealing with stress and building resilience can enhance one's quality of life, emphasizing the importance of movement, nutrition, time management, joy, and gratitude. He suggests how to apply a balanced approach to life, challenging belief systems, and incorporating strategic breaks to build resilience and enjoy life more fully. The discussion also includes the importance of practising self-compassion and nurturing joy in daily life.
