Adelaide Entrepreneur Club Episode 14 - An interview with Professor Pete Alexander
Om episode
We met Professor Pete on Day 193 of the 366 day journey of meeting someone new every day. Pete lives in Seattle and is a professor of marketing and a stress relief expert.⠀https://petealexander.com/blog/https://petealexander.com/stress-relief-tool-detox-from-technology/In the late 90's, Pete was running a dotcom business when he decided to start teaching evening classes at a local college and found it was a great way to get clients. He enjoyed teaching so much he got his PhD in e-Business.⠀Something interesting about Pete is that he ended up in the ER with stress induced diabetes and spent 3 days in intensive care. He knew he was under a lot of stress but didn't listen to his body, and while he was there he realised with the help of a nurse that he needed to make some changes so he started by resigning from his job. ⠀Pete then started a journey of learning how to overcome stress and last year, published a book titled "Lighten Your Day: Fast, Easy and Effective Stress Relief for When Sh*t Happens".⠀Pete is now semi retired and in February this year, started producing short podcasts with his LinkedIn connections as a way of cultivating relationships. He also publishes tips taken from his book each week that he hopes will be helpful to anyone overcoming stress. ⠀
