iShft Happens with Leah & Cari: Discover the Leader Within

EPISODE 7: Grounded Presence: The Cure for Hustle, Overwhelm, and Constant Noise


Listen Later

You’re always moving. Always producing. 
But are you actually present—or just performing presence? 
 
In this episode of The Modern Culture, Cari and Leah crack open the leadership illusion that staying busy equals being effective. Grounded Presence isn’t about stillness for the sake of balance. It’s about becoming a leader whose presence speaks louder than their urgency. 
 
Because let’s be honest—most leaders aren’t burned out from doing too much. 
They’re burned out from being disconnected while doing it. 
 
This episode brings you into: 
  • What Grounded Presence really means in high-performance leadership 
  • The false confidence of urgency and how it erodes trust 
  • The nervous system science behind calm command vs. reactive leadership 
  • How this principle transforms team energy, decision-making, and culture 
  • A case study of a CEO who rebuilt their presence from the inside out 
  • Three practices to help you lead from your body, not just your calendar 
  • The ripple effect of grounded presence in meetings, conflict, and growth moments 
  •  
    You don’t need more hacks. 
    You need to remember what it feels like to be in your body, fully present, and unshakeable. 
    This isn’t a time-management episode. 
    It’s a power retrieval.
