You don't need to try harder. Stop 'trying' harder.
What happens when nervous system wisdom meets conscious leadership?
In this episode, I sit down with Melissa Hedstrom and Scott Sadler, two deeply grounded guides who help people heal, lead, and live from the inside out.
Melissa is a wellness educator and coach who specializes in nervous system regulation, mind-body healing, and helping people reconnect with their capacity to thrive. Her work blends practical tools for real-life transformation.
Scott is an executive coach and leadership consultant whelping leaders slow down, reconnect, and lead with emotional intelligence, clarity, and presence. His work blends strategy, nature-based grounding, and deeply human insight.
Together, they co-founded VitalEdge Wellness, where healing, leadership, resilience, and connection come together in powerful ways.
In this conversation, we talk about:
• Why regulation comes before resilience
• How introversion can be a leadership advantage
• What real self-trust looks like in busy, demanding lives
• How to lead and live without burning out
This episode is for anyone who’s tired of pushing and ready to live and lead with intention.
