Dr. Jake Grinaker and Dr. Brian Dozark explore why high performers—parents, professionals, students, and athletes—eventually crash despite pushing through stress. They explain nervous system dysregulation, chronic sympathetic dominance, and how this leads to burnout, brain fog, and fatigue.
Using the "blown fuse" analogy, the episode outlines common signs of crashing and why simply removing stress often isn’t enough to recover. The hosts discuss how targeted assessment and scans can reveal where the nervous system needs to be reset.
The show finishes with practical steps: unplug unnecessary stresses, seek professional evaluation to "flip the breaker," and adopt ongoing maintenance so high performance is sustainable without burning out.

In this episode of The Strive Show, Dr. Jake Grinaker and Dr. Brian Dozark explain that 'colic' is a label for a fussy, uncomfortable baby rather than a specific disease. They discuss common causes like digestive distress, positional issues, feeding difficulties, and birth-related restrictions, and how these clues point to underlying problems.
The hosts stress the importance of finding and treating the root cause early—don’t normalize a witching hour or unusual sleeping positions. With timely evaluation and appropriate care, many infants improve quickly and parents can get relief sooner.

In this episode of The Strive Show, Dr. Jake Grinaker and Dr. Brian Dozark explain nervous system dysregulation—how the sympathetic (fight-or-flight) and parasympathetic (rest-and-digest) systems can get out of balance and cause symptoms from anxiety and muscle tension to fatigue, brain fog, and digestive issues.
They discuss practical steps you can take at home (box breathing, sleep hygiene, limiting tech) and diagnostic tools the clinic uses (scans and heart rate variability) to find where you’re stuck and track progress, plus when to come in for professional help.
