In this episode, George Ramsay, a conscious leadership coach, and I explore how breathwork, coupled with the Enneagram, metabolizes stress and boosts our energy. George guides us through a practice we can use to feel better immediately, and shares how to use breathwork to shed excess emotional weight and keep conflicts from turning into a mood that impacts our whole day. We discuss personal growing edges and how to move beyond the burned out activist approach to change, especially as we collectively navigate so many current challenges to our earth’s ecological systems and overall health. George also shares honestly about his struggles and gifts as someone who leads with Enneagram Type 9.
