A 4-week mindfulness journey for purpose-led executives, entrepreneurs and change-makers. This private mentorship will help you quiet your busy mind, reclaim your presence and sustain your impact – in life and work.

Calm in the Storm

Quiet your mind. Reclaim your presence. Sustain your impact.

You’re here to serve a mission that’s meaningful – something that asks much of you because it matters deeply. Work that has the potential to move the needle in your industry, your community, maybe even the world. But over time, the pace has become harder to sustain. The urgency never quite lets up. Even when you carve out rest, your mind often stays in motion. And while your commitment hasn’t wavered, your inner capacity to hold it all may be quietly wearing thin.

Let this be your turning point to a new way forward

Calm in the Storm is a 4-week journey for high-impact leaders who want to restore clarity, presence, and grounded energy – without stepping away from their ambition or their mission.

This isn’t about slowing down for the sake of it. It’s about finding a rhythm that sustains you. So your vision can breathe again. So you can, too.

Over 4 weeks, you’ll learn to:

• Lead from the body, not just the brain

Reconnect to the innate intelligence of your nervous system and access clarity and spaciousness by rooting into your body.

• Work skilfully with emotional intensity

Harness the wisdom in your highs and lows without being gripped by them, so you can work skilfully even during intense times.

• Maintain clarity and see beyond mental clutter

Recognize and unhook from thought patterns and beliefs that distort your focus and fuel self-pressure.

• Lead with a wise and compassionate heart

Cultivate compassion as a leadership strength and discover how to lead with a wise heart for greater impact.

    ⟶ 2 private, voice-only mentorship sessions to support your personal integration and tailor the teachings to your leadership context

    Each element is designed for a full schedule and a full life. Short, potent practices. Deep impact. Support that meets you where you are.

Mindfulness as a growth catalyst for leaders

Research by Leadership Circle suggests 70-80% of leaders are operating predominantly from reactive states. Reactive Leadership is defined by past conditioning which limits agility and responsiveness to changing circumstances. This style of leadership is not conducive to thriving in our changing world. 

Mindfulness serves as a powerful amplifier for leadership development through the cultivation of awareness, presence and compassion. Together, these inner resources equip a leader to evolve their approach to better meet the growing complexity of our world. By promoting stillness and clarity, mindfulness practices create the conditions from which Creative Leadership can emerge and grow.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Mindfulness is the basic human ability to be fully present, aware of where we are and what we’re doing. The practice of mindfulness is an ancient technique that can be traced back to various traditions including Hinduism and Buddhism. In our busy, modern times, there are many secular applications of mindfulness which can be practiced by anyone, in any setting, to great benefit.

    Research has shown that mindfulness practices are effective in raising self-awareness, eliciting a relaxation response, improving energy levels and reducing pain, among other benefits. 

    Mindfulness practices include meditation, as well as mindful movement and anything else that involves consciously bringing attention to the present moment.

  • There are many facets of leadership development. Acquiring new skills and tools can be helpful and necessary, but transformational leadership potential is unleashed only when a leader grows as a human.

    The demonstrated impacts of mindfulness on self-awareness and reductions in reactivity point to a big opportunity in the leadership development space - when research by Leadership Circle suggests 70-80% are operating predominantly from Reactive States. Because with greater awareness comes choice. And with choice, we can shift out of Reactivity.
