Breathwork for Leaders: Regulate Stress, Boost Performance & Build Impactful Teams
Host Julia Felton welcomes high-performance coach and breathwork expert Lucas Kulbis to discuss how breathwork helps leaders regulate stress and improve team performance.
Lucas shares his journey from an AI-focused computer science path and startup burnout to discovering breath as a foundational tool for state control, presence, and resilience. They explain how shallow breathing can reinforce anxiety and how intentional breathing can shift the nervous system from fight-or-flight (amygdala-driven) to calmer, clearer decision-making (prefrontal cortex), supporting emotional regulation and co-regulation with others.
Lucas teaches practical techniques including the physiological sigh for rapid resets, a bedtime diaphragm-breathing practice to improve sleep, and coherence breathing (about 5.5 seconds in and out) to align heart, breath, and brain. He also describes client results, including a 10X revenue increase alongside broader life improvements, and invites listeners to his free Skool community and coaching.
