Ep 3 Why You Can’t Switch Off feat. Phil Hyland – Stress Proof Portfolio

If you’ve ever struggled to sit still, hated being alone with your thoughts, or said “I’m fine” when you weren’t — this one’s for you.

In Episode 3 of the Stress Proof Series, I’m joined by coach and founder of The Upgraded Mind, Phil Hyland — to explore what’s really behind the pressure so many men feel, and why slowing down feels harder than grinding through.

Drawing from over 20 years of coaching experience and personal recovery from low self-belief and anxiety, Phil shares a grounded, refreshingly real take on how stress actually builds — and why most men only notice it when their body forces them to stop.

We cover why high-intensity workouts, career ambition and even self-improvement can backfire when they’re used to avoid what’s really going on — and how learning to “just be” might be the most uncomfortable but powerful tool of all.

Phil also shares the challenge he sets to every man he works with, and the three S’s that changed his life — stillness, silence and solitude.
