If you’ve ever second-guessed yourself in high-stakes situations or walked away from a meeting thinking “I didn’t say what I really meant,” this episode is for you.
True clarity in leadership doesn’t come from more data or better slides - it comes from your internal state.
In this episode, I’ll guide you through a 30-second clarity check-in you can use before key conversations, meetings, or moments that matter.
We’ll also explore a simple breath technique (known as coherent breathing) that helps you regulate your nervous system and access your natural leadership presence.
In this episode:
Practice included:

Reflection prompt:
“What state am I leading from?”
Whether you’re prepping for a boardroom conversation or a tricky one-on-one, this episode will leave you with something immediately useful-and deeply centring.
