E10 Health: Take a deep breath. With Elissa Davies

Take a Deep Breathwith Elissa DaviesWhat do you do when your system is in overdrive — when you’re halfway up a cliff, on a high-stakes mission, or lying awake at 3am with your thoughts on a loop?In this first-ever recorded episode of Coach Me If You Can, I sat down with Elissa Davies — a special mission pilot turned breathwork coach — to explore how we can access calm when life pushes us into the panic zone. We talk about the difference between stretch and overwhelm, how resilience is built through repetition, and why breath is your most underused superpower.Since our conversation, I’ve been experimenting. Box breathing at night? Surprisingly effective (still not a habit). Allocating “worry time”? A game-changer. The physiological sigh? Feels weird… but it works. This episode left me with tools — and questions — that I’m still sitting with. And yes, I need to invite her back.We also cover:Burnout and recovery in high-pressure careersHow to notice your breathing and what it’s telling youTriage for your thoughts: control, influence, or acceptThe science behind breathing and heart rateHow to build small breathwork moments into busy daysWhether you're a parent, a high-performer, or just trying to sleep better — this one’s for you.🎧 If you enjoy the episode, hit follow on Spotify and leave us a comment or rating.
