The Soul Mirror Podcast

Why Stillness is the Key to Greater Success in Leadership & Life | Camilla Calberg


Listen Later

In this deeply calming and eye-opening episode of Soul Mirror, host Shreya welcomes global leadership mentor Camilla Calberg to explore a counter-intuitive truth: true success, authentic power, and breakthrough decision-making are not born from constant hustle, but from mastering stillness. Camilla shares her own 20+ year corporate journey, practical tools she teaches hundreds of high-achieving women, and how short moments of pause can reset the nervous system, sharpen intuition, dissolve people-pleasing, and transform high-performers into trusted, impactful leaders.

Key Takeaways:

  • Stillness is not emptiness; it’s deep presence, reflection, and allowing yourself to simply “be” before responding.

  • Most leaders avoid stillness because it feels uncomfortable or like weakness; yet it is the ultimate superpower for resetting the nervous system and stepping into your highest self.

  • Practical ways to use stillness: 30–120 seconds of pausing (even in the bathroom before a big meeting!), closing your eyes, body scanning, and reconnecting with your higher self.

  • Stillness stops ego-driven reactions and people-pleasing; it helps you say authentic “no’s,” ask deeper questions, and read the energy in the room.

  • Early signs of real inner alignment: quicker recognition of self-sabotage, stronger intuition, better feedback from others, and feeling fully present instead of performative.

  • Shifting from “performance mindset” (proving yourself) to “authentic leadership” (serving the outcome) happens naturally when you practice stillness.

  • Movement without consciousness is just forcing; true productivity and joy come from expanding self-awareness through stillness.

  • Camilla’s four levels of wealth framework starts with transactional leadership and evolves into transformational leadership that serves something bigger than the self.
