In a world speeding toward automation and disconnection, what if the most important skill isn’t thinking faster… but feeling deeper? In this episode of the Jogging Turtle Podcast, I sit down with Bente Vosteen, a sensory leadership coach based in northern Germany. After a personal awakening that transformed her entire life, Bente now helps leadership teams, educators, and parents reconnect with their emotional and sensory intelligence—so they can lead and live from a place of deep presence and self-knowledge.

We explore:

* What it really means to feel disconnected from yourself

* The role of silence in leadership and self-awareness

* How AI is forcing a return to human-centered living

* The sensory gap in education, parenting, and leadership

* Why emotional regulation and creativity go hand-in-hand with sustainable success

* How to help children (and ourselves) rediscover who we are through sensory intelligence

*

If you’ve ever felt like you’re running on autopilot—or raising kids inside a system that leaves no room to feel—this episode offers a powerful reframe.

⏳ This is for anyone ready to slow down, feel again, and reconnect with what matters most.
