Cold showers were never about toughness or biohacking for me. They became one of the first ways I learned how to regulate my nervous system, face fear directly, and stop abandoning myself. In this episode, I share the real story behind my book “Smash Your Comfort Zone With Cold Showers” and why cold water became such a powerful teacher in my recovery and self-regulation journey.
