In this episode, our host Sebastian sits down with Suzanne Jewell, The Mindful Entrepreneur, to explore the 4th Pillar of your start-up. As every start-up requires an MVP, Proof of Concept and a strategic plan on how to reach the ROI for investors, few leaders look at themselves as the 4th Pillar of their business plan. Top leadership schools from Stanford to Yale are training graduates on the practices of mindful attention training. Microsoft’s CEO has said that in five years or less, the #1 skill for leaders, as well as employees, will be the ability to focus the most valuable asset they have; their attention. The #1 most downloaded content during these times on LinkedIn has been about mindfulness, resilience and stress reduction. From Babson College to The Idea Center at Miami Dade, Suzanne trains leaders on the tools and techniques that help calm the mind to master the overwhelm. Learning things like the Anti-anxiety breath and The Smile Practice actually regulate your nervous system. The neuroscience from Harvard shows that 47% of the time leaders, and everyone, are awake, our minds are wandering. A wandering mind is an unhappy mind, yet you can learn to manage stress better and train your brain to navigate the challenges and keep your cool.
