executive coaching leadership effectiveness podcast Mar 11, 2025

Did you know that …

Walking can improve your cognitive skills? 
Strengthening your muscular core reduces anxiety? 
Light stretching can combat a whole host of mental and bodily ailments, from stress to inflammation?
 
When it’s so simple what’s stopping us? 

We all know that exercise changes the way you feel. But scientists are just starting to discover exactly how it improves our overall success. 

In episode two of the NewlandRock Leadership Effectiveness Podcast I interview Caroline Williams author of the fantastic book ‘Move’ which explores the emerging science of how movement opens up a hotline to our minds & directly impacts our leadership effectiveness. 

One simple example she gives in the interview is how a hormone called osteocalcin is released from our bones when we move, this travels via our blood to the brain and has a role in memory, reducing anxiety and stress as well as assisting our effectiveness from a focus and performance point of view. 

This is a truly fascinating podcast to listen to the full version you can download it from all streaming platforms or click the link below.
