In today’s corporate culture, we’re rewarded for always being in motion — checking off tasks, racing between meetings, and filling every minute with output. But what if this obsession with busyness is actually holding us back?

In this episode of Corporate Elements, we explore how to shift from relentless “doing mode” into a more reflective “spacious mode” — where deeper thinking, better decisions, and healthier leadership emerge. Inspired by research and real-world examples, you’ll learn why giving yourself mental space isn’t a luxury, but a leadership skill.

We’ll unpack:

• Why pausing can feel risky — and how to do it safely
• Practical ways to reclaim your attention
• How to build daily habits that make space for reflection
• Why creating “spaciousness” can transform not just your work, but your well-being

This episode is inspired by insights from Harvard Business Review, but fully reimagined with fresh perspectives and practical strategies tailored for today’s professionals.
