Are you feeling overwhelmed, stressed, or just completely burnt out as a business owner? You’re not alone—over 90% of people are in the same boat, and if you’re a leader, these challenges are probably dragging you and your business down.

🛎 In this episode of Marc Haine Live, Kira Leskew, a meditation and intuition master for business, joins me to break down how the right meditation practices not only reduce stress but can also solve those “unsolvable” business problems—some you didn’t even know existed.

Kira offers a free quiz to identify stress and leadership blind spots, and if you’re ready to learn how to implement this practice, you can connect with her on LinkedIn or visit her website at theeagleinstitute.net.

Kira is a former elite athlete and serial entrepreneur. She is also a meditation master. She covers Stopping Stress to Extremely High-Performance Mind for Business. Kira has discovered, through training thousands of businesspeople and athletes, that specific techniques work to stop stress in the mind and the human nervous system and get into a high-performance mind without taking an extensive sabbatical. Kira has been nominated 2x for RBC Canadian Woman Entrepreneur of the Year for Start-Ups. Kira also holds a JonahTM in Theory of Constraints, one of only 2 to ever given the privilege to complete a private program by The Goldratt Institute. Kira has been teaching meditation for business for more than 8 years.
