The one emotion that holds people back from achieving a goal or progressing is fear. It's a natural human process, but is often a paralyzing one.
In this episode, we are joined by Holistic Health Coach, Special Operations Combat Veteran, Founder, and CEO of Built to Evolve, Pearce Cucchissi. Pearce shares his frameworks and strategies for regulating your nervous system through breathwork, stress mitigation, and mental training.
Pearce Cucchissi is a former member of US Army Special Operations under the 75th Ranger Regiment. He has trained and led both domestic and foreign special operations teams in combat throughout the middle east. After his military service, he led health and performance optimization programs alongside Neurologists and Sports Psychologists.
Pearce now runs Evolve, a coaching and advisory service that helps individuals and teams engineer mental freedom to achieve progress & results. Some of Pearce’s clients include financial institutions, Tech CEOs, NFL athletes, Real Estate executives, and entrepreneurs.
Teaching a custom system, Pearce utilizes combat stress reduction techniques, neuroscience, psychology, and physiology, to ensure high performing individuals are operating in a peak state, without self imposed limitations.
