Recently, biotech entrepreneur Bryan Johnson made headlines for walking out of a podcast with Nikhil Kamath. His reason? The shocking air pollution in India.
Bryan’s sensitivity made him visibly uncomfortable. This raises an interesting question—how do different people cope with environmental stressors?
Just like lab rats raised in controlled environments struggle to survive in the wild, humans also have varying thresholds for adaptation. Here’s how people typically respond:
Resilient Surfer – Adapt quickly, whether it’s polluted air, stress, or chaos. Have you ever been in a noisy, crowded space and powered through without breaking a sweat?
Sensitive Sensor – Feel the environment deeply. Do you get headaches in smoky areas or feel discomfort in polluted air?
Cautious Creator – Not as resilient as the Surfer but takes proactive steps, like using masks, to minimize discomfort.
So, which type do you relate to? I know I lean toward the Sensitive Sensor type myself.
