On this episode of Backstage Pass, Gail Davis sits down with Jesse Israel, founder of The Big Quiet, to explore how quiet can become a competitive advantage in a noisy, high-pressure world.

Key topics in this episode include:

• How Jesse’s early success in the music industry (including signing MGMT) led to anxiety and panic attacks behind the scenes
•  Why “solitude deprivation” is making it harder to think clearly, feel grounded, and access creativity
•  How Jesse discovered that moments of quiet gave him an edge in decision-making and performance
•  The origin story of The Big Quiet and how it grew from small meetups into mass meditations in iconic venues
•  How Jesse landed a spot on Oprah’s arena tour
•  The three types of noise Jesse sees in every industry: the noise of the world, the noise in our heads, and the noise in our bodies
•  What event planners should know about Jesse’s Amplified Quiet framework and where it fits best
