Dr. Ron Stotts on Conscious Leadership, Spiritual Awakening & the Power of Presence

I had the absolute honor of sitting down with Dr. Ron Stotts, a transformational leadership expert with a story that will leave you speechless. From being an elite athlete to enlisting in the Marine Corps, only to face a life-altering moment of realization, Ron’s journey took him from the depths of despair to a profound spiritual awakening.

In this episode, we talk about his near-suicidal experience, the moment he was engulfed by an unexplainable white light, and how that revelation set him on a path of deep inner work, meditation, and conscious leadership. Ron has spent decades guiding high-level leaders to operate with greater self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and mindfulness, skills that don’t just make better CEOs, but better human beings.

We also explore how vulnerability is the key to authentic leadership, the power of breathwork in rewiring the brain, and why true success isn’t about control. It’s about presence.

If you’re on a journey of self-discovery, leadership, or simply looking for a conversation that will challenge the way you see yourself and the world, this one is for you.
