The Mike Method EP64 Lessons in Presence, Gratitude, and Mindful Leadership with Mo Jessa
As we step into September, it’s a perfect moment to slow down, reflect, and bring more mindfulness into the way we lead and live. That’s why we’re bringing back one of our most listened to episodes of The Mike Method, a powerful conversation with Mo Jessa.
Mo has spent over three decades with Earls Restaurants, helping grow the company from 13 locations to more than 70 across North America. Along the way, he has become a sought-after voice on leadership, known for his ability to inspire people to see what’s possible in themselves and others.
In this episode, Mo opens up about his journey from humble beginnings to leading in the restaurant industry. He and Mike explore the role of mentorship in unlocking potential, the importance of promoting based on possibility rather than just experience, and how that approach creates more diverse and capable leaders. Mo also shares how presence, gratitude, and mindfulness have shaped his leadership and why surrounding yourself with the right people matters just as much as strategy.
It is a conversation about shifting limiting beliefs, building psychological safety, and leading in a way that not only drives results but also creates a fulfilling life.
