In their words
What was actually said
I think about that three quarters of the human population is in heightened chronic stress all day of the waking day so when they're sleeping the stress subsides the minute they wake up they go back into heightened stress which means if you were the company and you have a hundred employees 75 of your employees are in heightened chronic stress all day while they're at work.
