In Part 2 of this powerful conversation, Jessica and Kelly explore what it really means to lead through regulation, repair, and real connection. They dive into how nervous system states affect leadership communication, why emotional regulation is the key to productivity, and how leaders can repair trust after a rupture. Plus, Jessica shares personal stories and practical examples (including parenting!) that highlight how presence and partnership change everything.


What You’ll Learn in Part 2:

  • How emotional regulation impacts your conversations—and your credibility

  • What to do after a rupture or emotionally charged moment

  • Why partnering (not just coaching) might be the leadership skill of the future

  • The science behind nervous system states and why 2.5 minutes of breathing can change a meeting

  • How to bring your full-body wisdom into the workplace for real results


This episode is a must-listen for any leader ready to create more powerful, meaningful, and impactful conversations—at work and at home.
