In this episode of The Pathway to Peak Performance, Dr. Tania Lacorte joins the show for a powerful conversation on the thing we’re missing most in modern life: real human connection.

We explore why “vibe” and presence matter as much as words, how the unconscious shapes everything from relationships to leadership, and why so many people feel exhausted, anxious, and disconnected in a phone-driven culture. Dr. Lort shares how insight actually forms (and why the best breakthroughs come when people arrive at their own conclusions), plus practical ways to handle triggers, communicate across differences, and lead with more clarity—especially in high-stakes organizational environments.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why connection is a performance advantage in life and leadership
  • How uncertainty fuels anxiety, and how to regulate it
  • The difference between advice and lasting insight
  • What’s really happening in difficult group dynamics and teams
  • How executive coaching and therapy support better decisions and healthier cultures
  • Why meaning, curiosity, and empathy matter in 2025 and beyond
