Deadlines. Metrics.Every hour accounted for, Except the one that asks: Where am I in all this?Most leaders aren’t burnt out because they’re doing too much.They’re burnt out because they’re disconnected from themselves while doing it.This conversation is about changing that.Meet Deepa Mahesh – Leadership facilitator, expressive arts therapist, ICF PCC coach.She walked away from corporate not because she was broken,but because she knew wholeness could never be found in KPIs.Her journey isn’t just a career pivot.It’s a quiet revolution in how we think about success, energy, and conscious leadership.When I invited her to Journey to the Future, I wanted to go beyond self-care hacks or hustle culture and ask:👉 What if presence, not productivity, is the real leadership edge?👉 How do you return to yourself in a world that never lets you pause?In this episode, we explore:✔ Deepa’s shift from HR to healing leadership✔ How movement, mandalas, and silence unlock true presence✔ Why “high performance” often hides collapse✔ How to hold space for others—and yourself✔ Why the future belongs to those who are present🎧 Journey to the FutureLeading with Presence: Energy, Boundaries & the Deep Return to Selfwith Deepa MaheshIf you’re done performing wholeness and ready to live it—Join us.
