Lead From Your Body: Tai Chi, Energy, and Embodied Leadership at Work with Amanda Stradling and T...

What if your next leadership breakthrough isn’t in your mind—yet? In Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, hosted by Sayan, Timm Esque and Amanda Stradling unpack how breath, posture, and movement quietly shape how we lead. This episode is for leaders, founders, and high-achievers who feel stuck in overthinking, burnout, or “performing leadership.” You’ll hear how Tai Chi and Qigong help you get out of mental loops, access steadier commitment, and respond with more choice—not just reaction. About the Guest: Amanda Stradling is a Tai Chi and Qigong practitioner who shares how embodied practice reshaped her confidence and leadership. Timm Esque brings decades of business experience (including Intel and consulting) and discovered embodiment through leadership coaching before training Tai Chi with Amanda.
