Ever wonder how some women turn their hardest seasons into their greatest growth? In this powerful episode of CEO School, host Suneera Madhani sits down with Dr. Neeta Bhushan—bestselling author, speaker, founder, and host of The Brave Table podcast—to talk about resilience, emotional health, and the art of coming back stronger.

Live from the Millionaire Founders Club Retreat, Suneera and Neeta dive deep into grief, reinvention, motherhood, entrepreneurship, and the importance of creating emotional safety in leadership and life. Neeta shares her personal story of profound loss, her journey to emotional healing, and the micro-resets that help high-achieving women reclaim joy every day.

💬 How to expand your capacity to feel—and why it’s the key to resilience

🎯 Small, powerful rituals to reset your nervous system throughout your day

🧠 Why successful women often numb out—and what to do instead
