Episode 45: Why Meditation Makes You a Better CEO


Listen Later

In this episode, I sit down with Emily Tuttle, the founder and CEO of Pause & Purpose. Emily is on a mission to bring mindfulness and meditation into wellness studios all over the world — not just as content, but as a structural part of how those studios operate, connect with each other, and grow their revenue.

What makes Emily's work interesting isn't only that she's bringing meditation to more people. It's the way she's built an actual business around something most people treat as either a personal practice or a side offering. Pause & Purpose creates the infrastructure — the courses, the network, the resources — that lets studios fold meditation and mindfulness into their work in ways that meaningfully serve both their clients and their bottom line.

We talk about Emily's journey, what she's learned about building a business at the intersection of wellness and operations, and how the practices she teaches translate into real business decisions. Specifically: how meditation makes you a more grounded CEO, how mindfulness changes your decision-making in moments of pressure, and how the women who incorporate these practices into their leadership tend to make different — and often better — calls than the women who don't.

If you've been quietly curious about meditation as a tool for your own work, but skeptical that it actually does anything useful for the business itself, this conversation is the one for you.

This episode originally aired on Hitting Rock Middle, the show that has since evolved into The Sallie Ogden Show.

About the show:

The Sallie Ogden Show is for the woman who's already built something — and is stuck at the plateau where the old playbook stops working. Tactical when you need a number. Honest when you need a mirror. Hosted by former lawyer turned consultant Sallie Ogden.
