Episode 226: How I Think About… Performing Under Pressure
Manage episode 517439216 series 2807882
What does it really take to stay solid and grounded when the stakes feel high?
In this solo episode, I’m sharing how I think about performing under pressure - drawing from almost 2 decades in one of the world’s most stressful jobs and 6 years coaching ambitious entrepreneurs.
I explore:
- How calm confidence is actually a competitive edge in leadership
- Why, believe it or not, introverts often thrive in high-pressure environments
- The difference between pressure and stress (and how I avoid tipping over)
- Why owning “enough” is more powerful than doing “everything”
- Why pressure becomes easier with practice
- Why your ability to deal with pressure isn’t fixed - and how rituals, routines and ‘tools in the box’ are what really separates those who perform well from those who don’t
🎧 Tune in now and rethink what it means to perform at your best when it matters most in your business.
