QC - The Breath Is the Breakthrough: Olivia Mead’s TEDx Talk


Listen Later

This week, we’re sharing something special.

Yoga For First Responders founder Olivia Mead was invited to the TEDx stage to deliver a powerful message about the missing piece in modern public safety training: the ability to regulate the nervous system on demand.

In this talk, Olivia breaks down:

  • why breathwork is a tactical skill
  • how stress physiology drives on-duty decisions
  • why first responders deserve tools that match the realities of the job
  • how training the breath can change the brain, the body, and the long-term trajectory of a career

Her TEDx talk has already resonated with thousands and continues to shape the national conversation around mental and physical readiness in public safety.
