A conversation with Dr Rebecca Williams about Stress, Resilience and Small Changes

In this episode, I’m joined once more by Dr Rebecca Williams, retired GP with nearly 25 years of experience in the Scottish Borders, and the founder of Williams Stress Management. Rebecca works with individuals and organisations to reduce the impact of stress on health, life, and work with science-backed strategies and real-world wisdom.Through workshops, webinars, and 1-to-1 sessions, Rebecca offers personalised, practical support rooted in both her medical background and a deep understanding of the human side of stress.In our second conversation, she shares why stress isn’t a sign of weakness — it’s a biological response that can be better understood, managed, and even used to spark change.“Stress tells us something needs attention. It’s not the enemy – it’s a signal.”We also explore:The signs many people miss when stress is building upHow employers can create a culture of care — not crisis responseWhy small changes, done consistently, build long-term resilience💬 Please note: No individual medical advice is given in this episode. This conversation is for general information and awareness purposes only.Dr Williams speaks with clarity, kindness, and authority — the kind that only comes from years of helping people through both personal and professional storms.This is a must-listen for anyone wanting to better understand stress and take back some control. I wholeheartedly thank Dr Williams for coming back to the podcast to share insight to this very important topic. My own take away:  Stress is real and important to understand.Link to paperback:-https://www.amazon.co.uk/Dealing-Stress-Mind-Body-Spirit/dp/1497493668Link to audiobook:-https://www.audible.co.uk/pd/Dealing-with-Stress-Audiobook/B0DWZ4KQ2YWebsite: https://williamsstressmanagement.co.ukEmail: [email protected]: https://www.linkedin.com/in/williamsstressmanagement/Do message us, suggestions, feedback guests you'd like to have in a conversation here?
