Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2526999/fan_mail/new] What if one of the most powerful tools for changing your brain isn't another productivity hack, mindset strategy, or morning routine? What if it's your breath? In this solo episode of Rewired, Tiffany shares a personal story from a particularly full week that led her to rediscover something we all do more than 20,000 times a day—but rarely with intention. Inspired by James Nestor's Breath: The New Science of a Lost Art, she explores the fascinating neuroscience behind why slowing our breath can help us think more clearly, make better decisions, regulate our emotions, and reconnect with ourselves. Together, we'll explore: • Why your brain is constantly asking, "Am I safe?" • How your breath directly influences your nervous system • The connection between breathing, emotional regulation, and clear thinking • Why you can't access your wisest self from a survival state • The role of interoception—your brain's awareness of what's happening inside your body • A simple breathing practice you can begin using today Whether you're leading a team, navigating a difficult conversation, supporting others, or simply feeling the weight of a busy season, this episode is an invitation to pause, breathe, and remember that sometimes the fastest way to change your mind is to first calm your body. Because rewiring isn't always about finding a better thought. Sometimes it's about creating the conditions for your best thoughts to return.

Ep 42 - Rewiring Leadership: Growing People, Growing Purpose with Sarah Strickler

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2526999/fan_mail/new] What if the greatest leadership strategy isn't about managing people... ...it's about growing yourself? In this episode of Rewired, Tiffany sits down with Sarah Strickler, co-founder and Chief Community Officer of Grown Rogue, to explore what it really means to cultivate people, culture, and leadership from the inside out. Together, they discuss why companies can't outgrow their leaders, how trust and ownership become the foundation of healthy organizations, and why creating the right environment matters just as much for people as it does for plants. Sarah also shares the surprisingly simple practices that keep her grounded through the demands of leading a growing company: breath, movement, journaling, time in nature, and the discipline of returning to the present moment. Whether you lead an organization, a team, your family, or simply yourself, this conversation is a reminder that sustainable leadership begins long before the boardroom—it begins with how we care for ourselves. In this episode, you'll discover: • Why leadership is ultimately about growing people—not just products • How self-awareness becomes a competitive advantage • The role trust plays in creating high-performing teams • Why culture compounds over time • Simple daily practices that help leaders stay grounded during uncertainty • What it means to lead with presence instead of pressure Sarah Strickler is the co-founder and Chief Community Officer of Grown Rogue, a publicly traded, flower-focused cannabis company rooted in Southern Oregon's Rogue Valley. Since co-founding the company in 2016, she has helped scale Grown Rogue into a multi-state organization known for disciplined execution, intentional culture, and craft-quality products. Sarah is passionate about leadership development, community engagement, and creating environments where people feel safe, seen, and empowered to thrive.
