We are on the edge of a new era in leadership—one that honors the soul as much as it honors strategy. In this episode, I’m introducing you to the origins of a revolutionary leadership style that’s changing everything: Contemplative Leadership.

With over 27 years of experience as a researcher, executive coach, and practitioner, I’m sharing how this leadership style evolved and why it’s precisely what leaders like you have been searching for.

You’ll learn why this approach differs significantly from traditional models, such as transformational or authentic leadership, and why it’s time to lead with greater compassion, alignment, and integrity.

I’m inviting you to join me live for a private leadership transmission happening Wednesday, July 2 at 7 PM CT, where I’ll share the 5 Universal Leader Principles and how you can apply this work immediately in your leadership practice.

Burnout, performance pressure, and putting profit over people are symptoms of outdated leadership models.

In this powerful episode, I explore the collapse of toxic leadership and invite you to step into a new paradigm of Contemplative Leadership.

This is your call to rise, not as a leader chasing power, but as one who leads with integrity, humanity, and spiritual alignment.

Discover what it means to be a contemplative leader in this new era and why the future of leadership belongs to those willing to lead from soul, strategy, and service.

Feeling overwhelmed by chaos in your life and leadership? In this episode, I share how I’ve learned to become the calm anchor in turbulent times. I draw from personal stories and spiritual metaphors to show you how to stop absorbing chaotic energy and start leading from a place of stability, peace, and quiet confidence.

I unpack how external chaos—social media, organizational noise, and even well-intentioned people—impacts your emotional and spiritual well-being as a leader. I invite you to consider what it would feel like to be the anchor: grounded, steady, and unshakable, no matter the storm.

In this powerful episode, we reflect on the harsh truth: most of us were never truly trained to lead—we were trained to survive.

Through the lens of contemplative leadership, we expose the outdated models that have conditioned us to absorb chaos, suppress our brilliance, and operate in a constant state of survival. If you're burned out, reactive, or feeling disconnected from your purpose, this is your invitation to pause, reflect, and begin again.

Tune in for a soul-stirring conversation on nervous system responses, leadership conditioning, and how to finally shift from surviving to thriving—one conscious choice at a time.

In this powerful episode, I share a deeply personal story of surviving a high-speed accident in dense Texas fog, which draws a bold parallel to the state of leadership today.

If you’re feeling the weight of burnout or disengagement or know your team is suffering, this episode is your invitation to pause, reflect, and adopt a new lens.

Discover why Contemplative Leadership is the fresh vision our workforce desperately needs and how putting your leadership “in park” might just save your soul, your team, and your sacred calling.

What if your leadership isn’t just about what you do, but about what’s being reflected back to you every single day?

In this powerful episode, we'll explore the idea that leadership is like a house of mirrors, revealing not just your strengths but also your unconscious patterns, limiting beliefs, and divine gifts.

Through the lens of contemplative leadership, you’ll discover how the results you see in your life, work, and relationships mirror your inner world.
