There’s a hidden unravelling happening behind many boardroom doors — a quiet collapse beneath the polished surface of high performance. I’ve witnessed it. I’ve lived it. And in this episode, I’m speaking directly to those of you who carry the weight of leadership and silently ask, “Is this what success is meant to feel like?”
In this conversation, I reflect on what’s happening beneath the high-functioning CEO identity. We explore the subtle but devastating cost of suppressing your health, relationships, and life force energy in the name of success.
I share the truth about embodied leadership—not as a trend but as a non-negotiable foundation. I walk you through why reclaiming your well-being, your presence, and your personal power is not optional. It’s the very work that holds up the empire you’ve built.
You’ll also hear a real-life case study of a leader who returned to vitality, intimacy, and clarity after experiencing burnout and a relational breakdown.
I close this episode with a guided meditation to help you reconnect to what’s always been within you—your presence, your breath, your power.
This is your invitation to lead from wholeness, not depletion, because no level of performance is worth your soul.
