How to Stress Less and Live Happier: The Surprising Science of Stress with Dr. Gary Sprouse

In this powerful episode of Rock Your Comeback, Nichole sits down with Dr. Gary Sprouse — also known as The Less Stress Doc — to explore a completely new way of understanding and managing stress. After decades as a top primary care physician, Dr. Sprouse discovered a groundbreaking insight into where most human stress actually comes from — and how to finally get free from it. He shares innovative, science-backed tools that help you release worry, guilt, and regret so you can live lighter, more fulfilled, and more productive.

Dr. Sprouse opens up about his own “55-gallon drum of stress,” from lawsuits to burnout to personal pressure — and the tools that helped him reclaim peace and purpose. His new approach to stress has changed lives around the world, and in this conversation, you’ll hear how to apply it to your own. You’ll learn how the modern world and internet era have shifted our stress response, why awareness is your ultimate superpower, and how “worry organizing” can help you take control of your thoughts instead of being controlled by them.

Whether you’ve been overwhelmed by life, chasing balance, or simply ready to find your own Happy Place, this episode will give you the mindset shift and practical tools to get there. Plus, Dr. Sprouse shares insights from his bestselling books Highway to Your Happy Place and Mindset Matters, showing you how happiness and productivity aren’t opposites — they’re deeply connected.
