In this episode of Mental Fitness: The Gateway to Success, we dive into one of the most overlooked performance tools for business owners and managers—your breath.

Breathing is something we do more than 20,000 times a day, yet most of us are doing it wrong, without even knowing it.

Discover how restricted breathing silently drains your energy, clouds your decision-making, and amplifies stress—and how restoring natural, full breathing can dramatically shift your leadership, your focus, and your wellbeing.

I share my personal story of realizing just how restricted my own breathing had become, and the transformation that followed when I learned to restore it. You’ll learn:

✅ How proper breathing keeps you calm under pressure.

✅ Why it sharpens focus and boosts energy.

✅ The role it plays in better decision-making.

✅ How leaders who breathe well model resilience and confidence for their teams.

If you’re ready to unlock a simple yet powerful game-changer in business and life, this episode will show you why the breath truly is your greatest untapped resource.

The breathing practice I refer to for my morning practice is the Wim Hof Method (plenty of videos available on YouTube).
