You Can't Think Your
Way Through Pressure.
But You Can Find
Your Way Back.
Thanks for being in the room tonight. Here's what I promised you, the one-page framework, and a way to go deeper if you're ready.
TONIGHT’S CORE IDEAS
What you experienced in the room
We live in an era of fractured attention and competing commitments. For leaders, the cost isn't just productivity, it's an erosion of presence. The answer isn't thinking harder. It's learning to access different levels of awareness.
01
THE THREE LEVELS
Analytical, emotional, and somatic. Most of us tend to get stuck in only analytical, and the benefits of being able to fluidly move between all three levels is key to restoring capacity.
03
THE IMPACT ON SELF, OTHERS, AND ORGANIZATIONS
Moving between the Three Levels of Awareness enables us to connect deeper to ourselves and to others, thus improving not only productivity but also capacity, relationships, and intimacy. When put into practice, the impact is staggering for our personal lives as well as the organizations we work in.
02
THE SOMATIC WHEEL
Slow Down → Sense → Name → Choose. A four-step cycle for restoring capacity anywhere, in under 60 seconds.
04
LEADING WITH PRESENCE
The difference between reacting from habit versus choosing from awareness, and how to close the gap.
YOUR TAKEAWAY
The Somatic Intelligence Model
A one-page reference guide that includes the Three Layers of Awareness and a detailed explanation of The Somatic Wheel. Keep it on your desk, share it with your team, use it before your next hard conversation or high-stakes decision.
GO DEEPER
If tonight resonated, lets talk.
If you're navigating something challenging, a leadership transition, a team that's stuck, a version of yourself you know it's time to grow into, I'd love to be your thinking partner for 30 minutes.
Not just listening, an active thinking partner
