I discovered mindfulness as a super stressed executive after dismissing it as “definitely not for me” and it changed my life. I share this journey and the related learnings in my new book, Creating Mindful Leaders (Wiley, 2018).

I'm the retired founder and CEO of Whil Concepts, Inc. (“Whil”), a digital training platform helping employees to reduce stress, increase resiliency and improve their sleep and performance. Along the way, I've been an entrepreneur in scientific wellbeing, an early investor and the first President of Headspace and spent fifteen years as a global COO in public companies. I'm an alumnus of Harvard Business School and regular contributor to Forbes, Business Insider and The HuffPost. I've had the good fortune to worked in over 70 countries and travel the world speaking on topics including disruption, culture, emotional intelligence and mindfulness as competitive advantage.
