Is Stress Affecting Your Heart? With Dr. Alan Rozanski
This episode is dedicated to my cousin and fellow physician, Dr. Jason Nunez, who recently passed away one month ago. And to honor his life in the context of April being Stress Awareness Month, , we’re asking a vital question: Is stress quietly harming your heart? Joining me for this important discussion is Dr. Alan Rozanski, MD, a renowned cardiologist and Professor of Medicine whose research established the powerful link between psychological stress and heart disease. In this episode, we explore how chronic stress impacts the body, why your perception of stress matters, and what practical, science-backed tools can help you protect your heart and build true resilience. If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed or simply want to better understand the toll of unmanaged stress and its effects on the heart—this is a conversation you won’t want to miss. And this episode is not just about the science with practical tips—it’s a collective wake-up call for so many of us living with unchecked chronic stress. I hope this one inspires you to start taking good care of yourself, because your heart depends on it.
