About this listen
In this high-impact episode of Power CEOs: The Truth Behind the Business, host Jen Gaudet sits down with elite performance strategist Rachel Vickery for a powerful conversation on what truly separates great leaders from those who falter under pressure. Drawing from her experience working with professional athletes, military special forces, and high-stakes executives, Rachel reveals why intelligence, strategy, and experience alone are not enough when the nervous system is overloaded.
The episode explores how physiological stress not lack of skill causes even top performers to make critical mistakes during crisis moments. Rachel breaks down the science of performance under pressure, explaining how the nervous system affects decision-making, communication, situational awareness, and leadership presence.
