The Leadership Project Podcast

Get ready to transform your leadership style entirely. Join us for an engaging discussion with Pam Marcheski, the mastermind behind Intentions to Actions Leadership. You'll learn how mindfulness can be a game-changer for decision-making and team performance. Pam shares her compelling journey from a high-stakes retail executive role to becoming a mindful leadership consultant, inspired by Dan Harris's "10% Happier." Discover practical steps you can take to be more present and intentional as a leader, creating mental space that enhances your ability to respond thoughtfully in any situation.

We tackle the critical components of resilience and self-awareness, emphasizing the transformative power of recognizing and embracing difficult emotions without judgment. Pam and I delve into the practice of noticing and naming feelings to manage reactions more effectively, enhancing your leadership capability. Learn to distinguish between your thoughts, emotions, and true self, and explore techniques like RAIN (Recognize, Allow, Investigate, Not Identify) that can revolutionize how you process emotions mindfully.

Lastly, we highlight the importance of presence in leadership, particularly in virtual settings. Discover how turning on your camera and eliminating distractions can significantly improve meeting focus and engagement. We'll guide you through creating a practical mindfulness kit filled with tools for daily life, including grounding techniques and sensory experiences. As we reflect on our leadership journey, we're grateful for our milestones and the support from our community. Dive in with us to embrace the power of mindfulness and elevate your leadership impact.
