What if two minutes could change how you show up at work?
You don’t need an hour, a cushion, or complete silence to meditate. And you don’t need to clear your mind.
In this episode of The Leadership Laboratory Podcast, I’m talking with Rachel Tenenbaum, NeuroTransformational Executive Coach, Founder of I AM Living, and Co-Founder of The Reset Room, about meditation for busy professionals and what it can look like when your calendar is already packed.
In this episode, Rachel and I talk about:
- What meditation actually is – and what it isn't
- What happens in your brain when you meditate
- Why a busy mind isn't a reason to skip meditation
- How meditation can help you respond instead of react under pressure
- The connection between physicality, stress, and performance
- A powerful story about a high-stakes union negotiation
- How to bring mindfulness into your workday, even between meetings
- A simple two-minute meditation you can try right now
“What you hear today is a conversation about meditation, but it’s really a conversation about how you show up in your life.”
Rachel brings together neuroscience, mindfulness, and leadership to help high-performing leaders develop greater awareness, steadiness, and choice in how they respond – especially under pressure.
And before the episode ends, Rachel guides me through a two-minute meditation that you can try for yourself.
If your days are already full, this episode is a great reminder that taking care of your mind doesn't have to mean adding another hour to your schedule.
Listen to the episode and try the two-minute meditation for yourself.
