66 | Navigating Triggers with Integrity
Send us a textWelcome back to The Executive Exhale podcast. In today’s episode, we’re diving deep into a topic that many of us have faced—those moments when we feel triggered by a comment, a statement, or a situation that doesn’t sit right with us. Whether it's bias, offensive remarks, or just a response that hits too close to home, how do we find the courage to challenge without letting our emotions take over?I’m sharing some personal reflections today, including a mistake I made in a recent conversation where I let myself skip over curiosity and went straight to battle mode. The truth is, while challenging others is important, it’s the ‘how’ that really matters. We’ll talk about how to reframe these moments, how to ground yourself in your values, and how to approach these tough conversations with integrity—without letting our triggers dictate the outcome.So, if you’ve ever felt the urge to speak up but weren’t sure how to handle the situation, this episode is for you.

65 | 5 Signs It’s Time to Leave Your Executive Role
Send us a textIn this episode of The Executive Exhale podcast, I’m diving into five key signs that might mean it’s time to rethink your career path. I know this struggle firsthand—I had a six-figure executive role, but deep down, I felt completely misaligned. On paper, everything looked great, but inside, I knew something was off.I’ll walk you through the five biggest red flags: feeling disconnected from your mission or that of who you work with, noticing how stress is impacting your health and wellness, feeling stagnant, staying in your role just for the pay check, and watching your personal life suffer. If any of these hit home, it’s worth taking a step back and asking yourself some big questions.This isn’t about making drastic moves overnight—it’s about tuning in, getting honest with yourself, and exploring what’s next. And if you need support, I’m here to help. Let’s talk about what real alignment and fulfillment look like for you.For more information on the services or future events offered by Executive Exhale Inc., go to https://www.executiveexhale.com.

57 | Why Should YOU Attend an Executive Wellness Retreat?
Send us a textAs an executive coach, I am seeing negative trends and patterns in the areas of leadership wellness. High-performing executives struggle to integrate work pressures and daily demands with their mental and physical health. This results in executives dealing with the impacts of chronic and intense stress, fatigue, or, worse yet, complete burnout. Wellness retreats offer a restorative experience that rejuvenates the mind and body and renews leadership capabilities. Some say it's just a luxury, not a necessity. Others think they're purely about relaxation or that taking time off will reduce productivity.  In this episode, I start to break down these myths and dive into the benefits of wellness retreats—why they're more than worth the investment and how they can benefit you and your entire leadership team.For more information on the services or future events offered by Executive Exhale Inc., go to https://www.executiveexhale.com.

52 | When did the word "wellness' become the new "woo-woo"?
Send us a textIn this episode, I tackle the topic of why investing in wellness in leadership gets a bad rap. This is a result of a conversation I had recently with a fellow coach around the wording of some marketing material...and I wanted to share why I think we really need to start shifting the narrative around wellness support in leadership. We need to demystify the notion of wellness and use the mounting evidence of why this is so foundational to individual and organizational success. Dr Neha Sangwan can be found at https://intuitiveintelligenceinc.com/ For more information on the services or future events offered by Executive Exhale Inc., go to https://www.executiveexhale.com.

Send us a textWelcome to The Executive Exhale Podcast - this episode is a replay from my previously branded podcast 'On the Level Leadership'.  In this episode, I explore how to maintain work life balance in remote work.
