You think you're hiding your stress well—but your team knows the truth. They're absorbing your anxiety through their nervous systems without you saying a word. In this scientifically grounded episode, mindset coach Joe and hypnotherapist Trevor expose the hidden phenomenon of emotional contagion that's sabotaging high-performing teams.

Discover how mirror neurons and heart rate coherence cause your team to unconsciously synchronize with your internal stress state, creating anxiety cultures that kill creativity, increase turnover, and destroy strategic decision-making. Learn why people don't quit jobs—they quit their leader's nervous system. Understand the three unspoken signals your body broadcasts (breath patterns, eye contact, hand tension) that betray your calm facade.

This episode delivers the Intentional Presence Protocol: a three-step pre-meeting routine to intentionally regulate your nervous system and transmit calm instead of chaos. Learn the Somatic Status Check (auditing tension before it spreads), the Command to Regulate (shifting from fight-or-flight to strategic confidence), and the Intentional Signal (setting the room's emotional temperature through deliberate presence).

Stop accidentally deregulating your team and start leading as the chief nervous system regulator. Perfect for leaders experiencing high turnover, risk-averse teams, or toxic meeting cultures.
