Pause. Breathe. Choose

He explores how redefining leadership through self-control and breathwork can enhance decision-making and resilience. Orvin introduces the concept of 'pause, breathe, and choose' as a tool for effective leadership. He emphasizes the role of emotional maturity and authority in achieving sustainable leadership. The episode concludes with Orvin's closing remarks and offers additional resources for listeners seeking to deepen their understanding and practice of these concepts in their leadership journey.
Key Points
