When leaders stay calm under pressure, prioritize what truly matters, and manage their energy intentionally, it signals to others that stress can be handled constructively. This encourages clarity, reduces anxiety, and builds a culture of trust. By focusing your energy on high-impact actions rather than reacting to every urgency, you not only protect your own well-being but empower your team to do the same.

In this episode, we sit down with energy expert and professional speaker Jennifer Lyall, who shares how leaders can lead by example—not just with their actions, but with their presence. Jennifer breaks down how focusing your energy, staying grounded under pressure, and “checking your Inner Battery” can transform workplace culture, reduce overwhelm, and elevate performance.

With over 60,000 people reached through her talks and interviews, and her mission to empower 1 million to manage their energy like they manage their phone battery, Jennifer offers simple, actionable insights to help leaders and teams thrive. Tune in to learn about how to focus and manage your energy, the ‘2-Minute Shift’, strategies for managing stress, and more.
