Are you a thriving people manager in a high-performing, fast-paced corporate environment, charging teams that produce results and bring unprecedented growth to the organization? If this is you, expect nothing less than a promotion offer coming at your feet. 

But the more substantial questions are: Have you prepared for the emotional and mental work ahead? How does this sound coming to terms with the relationships in your life, with your family or, fit into the conversations you currently have in your head?

If such a situation is forthcoming to you or someone you know,  this episode is a must for you. 

In this episode, we speak with Xavier Lee. He is an international leadership trainer,  mindfulness teacher, and executive coach specializing in mindfulness and high-performance mindset.  

Xavier helps individuals and leaders create high-performance culture through enhancing emotional/social intelligence, mindfulness, and practical leadership skills. More importantly, he helps functional leaders step up the corporate ladder without losing their identity and finding more meaning in their new roles.

He is also a Master Trainer in NLP (Neuro-linguistic Programming) from NLPU, an Ontological coach, a Transformational Business Coach, Language and Behavior (LAB) Consultant, Limbic CoachⓇ, and Wingwave Coach.

Episode Challenge (48:21-53:27)

Do 3-5 rounds of the 478 Breath Technique a couple of times within the week. Great way to feel more relaxed and instantly feel calmer when you're starting to feel panic, simply just wanting to reset right before a meeting, or trying to get a restful sleep. 

Here’s how to do it:

  1. Sit up comfortably with your back straight.
  2. Take a deep breath in with your mouth closed counting 1-2-3-4
  3. Hold your breath, counting 1-2-3-4-5-6-7
  4. Breathe out with your mouth open 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8
  5. Do two more rounds of steps 1-4
