Unshakable Confidence: Helping High-Achieving Women Lead with Calm, Clarity, and Confidence—at Work and in Life
45: Tired Of Leading From Stress? Regulate Your Nervous System to Lead with Calm Confidence
Are you constantly putting out fires, pushing through exhaustion, or feeling stuck in overthinking? If so, you might be leading from stress without even realizing it.
In this episode, I walk you through the four nervous system states that shape your leadership style: the Firefighter, the Ghost Leader, the Deer in Headlights, and the Grounded Leader. You'll learn how to recognize which state you're leading from—and why it has everything to do with your nervous system, not your personality.
I also share my personal journey of leading like a firefighter for most of my 20-year corporate career—until everything shifted when I learned how to regulate my nervous system.
You'll walk away with:
- A powerful self-assessment to uncover your current leadership state
- A clear understanding of how stress hijacks your leadership (and what to do instead)
- Three science-backed tools—breath, sound, and movement—to shift into grounded confidence
If you’re ready to stop leading from survival and start leading with presence, calm, and clarity—this episode is for you.
- Coco Duan helps high-achieving women executives who secretly doubt themselves to build calm confidence and create success that feels truly fulfilling.
