🎧 Episode 157: Mind, Body & Leadership with Brynn Scarborough (Part 2)

In this continuation of our conversation with Brynn Scarborough, President and CEO of JK Products & Services North America, we dive deeper into practical wellness strategies and the psychological aspects of leadership. Brynn shares her personal routines, the power of journaling, and why vulnerability might be a leader's greatest strength.

We explore:

• The transformative power of "I am" statements and gratitude journaling
• How to manage pressure and expectations as a woman leader
• The importance of sustainable wellness practices rather than "running the tank until destroyed"
• Non-negotiable daily routines that keep high-performing leaders at their best
• Why asking for help requires courage and persistence, especially in a hybrid work environment
• Creating psychological safety for yourself and your team
• The value of learning from failures rather than successes

🔑 Key takeaways:

1. Journaling creates a tangible record of growth that helps you appreciate your evolution
2. Reframing self-talk from "I should" to "I am" can reprogram your brain through subliminal priming
3. Sustainable wellness means finding practices you enjoy that can be easily integrated into your life
4. Sleep, hydration, supplements, and consistent movement form the foundation of daily wellness
5. Women often hesitate to ask for help due to fear of rejection or appearing vulnerable
6. True leadership is demonstrated by how you get back up after falling, not how you succeed
7. Life is short—focus on what truly matters rather than temporary discomforts or anxieties
