Dima Istambouli, founder of Mind Architecture and author of Intentional Reset, shares her journey from a high-stress career in construction to hitting rock bottom, and how she rebuilt her life by "architecting" her mind.

We explore the biology of burnout, explaining how stress physically "narrows" our perspective and why true healing requires rewiring the 95% of our brain that runs on subconscious autopilot.

Key Topics:

• The "Cortisol Face": Recognising the physical signs of stress.
• Mind vs. Brain: How to stop your mind from sending "fight or flight" signals.
• The 95% Rule: Why willpower fails if you don't reprogram your subconscious.
• Parenting Shift: Moving from "controller" to "partner" after age 12.
• Wabi-Sabi: Finding strength and beauty in your life's cracks and traumas.
