The Environmental Mismatch: Modern Tech is Breaking Our Nervous Systems

We are living in an era of "environmental mismatch". Our bodies have evolved over millions of years, and they are now fighting (or running from) 'tigers' in a world of constant digital pings.

Waldi Hoon, CEO of yōjō, joins David to decode the Vagus nerve and the autonomic nervous system. She discusses why raw health data often leads to "wellness shame," the science of physiological safety, and how to rewire your body for recovery without abandoning your modern lifestyle.
