With a background in neuroscience and years of experience advising Fortune 500 companies, John shares powerful insights on how to navigate stress, lead with presence, and thrive through change.
John’s approach blends neuroscience with leadership strategy to help high performers build resilience, expand their influence, and lead confidently in complex environments.

How to boost cognitive capacity and resilience through better daily habits
What a “chaos point” is—and how to lead your team through uncertainty
Practical strategies for navigating change, conflict, and ambiguity with clarity and calm
John also shares a roadmap for change leadership and how you can put executive presence on “autopilot” by rewiring habits and emotional patterns. This episode is essential listening for anyone who wants to lead with more resilience, clarity, and confidence—especially in high-pressure environments.
