#173 - Calming The Chaos in Leadership With Dr. Chris Johnson

In this episode, Dr. Tarryn MacCarthy talks with Coach, Speaker, Retreat Leader, and Chair of the Chicago Chapter of Conscious Capitalism, Dr. Chris Johnson. They talk about her book, The Leadership Pause, about a leader’s need to take a break to refresh their minds and bodies and then get back into their role to make an even more significant impact in the world.

Chris Johnson, PsyD, has built a reputation for surfacing and working with the hard things - the invisible things - those ways of being that support a balanced, integrated life, where decisions align with the wisdom of the body. In short, she's dedicated to transformational change - for individuals and those whom they serve. By integrating evidence-based teachings on the neurobiology of attention and the wisdom of the body,

Chris provides professionals with practical approaches to leading in our volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) world.

Through embodied leadership offerings, Chris and her team support professionals at all levels to build the capacity, compassion, and resilience needed to thrive as leaders. With the potent combination of deepened awareness and aligned action, these leaders cultivate generative organizations committed to the well-being of all stakeholders.

Chris challenges and supports leaders ready to embark on integrating life and work in sustainable, fulfilling ways. She's committed to extending the transformational work of embodied leadership to those committed to creating the future. When Chris isn’t working, you’ll find her in the garden, making art, hiking or skiing the slopes, listening to jazz or at the aikido dojo – practicing the art of peace.
