ADAPT or die
When disruption hits, average leaders freeze—great ones adapt.
Former tech-CEO–turned-leadership-coach Andreas Pettersson sits down with C-suite executives, founders, and change-makers to dissect the exact moment they faced a make-or-break challenge, the mindset pivot that unlocked progress, and the measurable success that followed.
Every episode delivers:
- Challenge → Adaptation → Success — a tight, three-act story you can steal.
- A 60-second “Hot-Seat” mini-coaching segment that turns insight into action.
- Concrete metrics, battle-tested tactics, and candid reflections you won’t hear on the PR circuit.
If you’re scaling a team, steering a turnaround, or future-proofing your career, this show equips you to adapt and thrive—because in leadership, the alternative is extinction.

Leila Entezam on Emotional Mastery: The Neuroscience Behind Peak Performance
Most elite leaders swear by data—but ignore the data their own bodies generate. Neuro-emotional performance coach Leila Entezam joins host Andreas Pettersson to prove that feelings are the missing metric at the top.
- Challenge → High-stakes CEOs, founders, and athletes hit a wall: detachment, compartmentalization, and a nagging sense of emptiness despite record-breaking results.
- Adaptation → Leila blends neuroscience, psychology, and EQ to show why the brain processes information emotion-first. By slowing down, cultivating somatic awareness, and seeing emotions as a critical dataset, high performers unlock deeper decision-making, richer connections, and sustainable momentum.
- Success → Clients trade burnout for balance, rebuild their most intimate relationships, and still smash business goals. Leila’s own four-year book journey—The Heart of Peak Performance: Emotional Mastery for High-Performing Men—demonstrates the payoff of purpose-driven persistence.
🔥 60-Second Hot Seat: Leila’s personal re-centering cue—remembering that time is precious and choosing every minute with intention.
Listen in to learn why “what got you here won’t get you there” unless you master the emotional game.
