About this listen

"Chronic stress is anti-correlated with all the things you want to have as a leader. It's anti-correlated with empathy, it's anti-correlated with creativity, and it's anti-correlated with complex decision making.” - Jan-Philipp Martini“If you can get more insight into what drives you, you can handle yourself — and your leadership — much better.” – Martin RedigoloStress has a funny way of showing up long before we notice it - our bodies feel it first, and our calendars catch up later.In this episode, I bring Martin Redigolo and Sapiens founder Jan-Philipp Martini together so we can connect the dots between the science, the story, and the real human experience of leading under pressure. Martin actually went through the full Sapiens Stress & Resilience Diagnostic, and he shares what the process was like, what surprised him, and how the results shifted the way he understands himself as a leader.And because Jan-Philipp is with us too, we dig into the “why” behind the data - how stress shows up in the body, what most leaders overlook, and how small, realistic habit shifts can make a huge difference in how you feel and how you perform.This conversation pulls the whole series together in a way that’s super grounded, practical, and honestly… eye-opening.You’ll hear me discuss:How Martin’s diagnostic unfolded and the parts of the process that were surprisingly simple (and surprisingly revealing)The moments when the data challenged what he thought he knew about his own stressHow the ECG and cortisol analysis make invisible stress completely visibleThe three core questions the Sapiens report answers for every leaderThe subtle patterns in your day that can drive fatigue or restlessness without you realizing itWhy it matters to work with your biology before trying to change your mindsetHow chronic stress quietly undermines things like empathy, creativity, and decision-makingThe shifts Martin is making now - at work and at home - because of what he learneda few habit changes that are simple, doable, and grounded in real sciencewhat sustainable leadership actually looks like when you’re aiming for excellence without exhaustionResourcesJan Philipp Martini on Sapiens | LinkedInMartin Redigolo on Web | LinkedInBook a 15-minute free demo consultation - LinkResearch: How We Measure Stress Using Body Data and Self-Assessments: Read hereWinnie da Silva on LinkedIn | On the Web | Substack | YouTube | Email - winnie@winnifred.orgLearn More About SapiensOverview of SapiensA short video introduction to Sapiens and their mission to help people in intense jobs manage stress and sustain performance.Video: The Diagnostics JourneySee what it’s like to go through the full Sapiens Stress & Resilience Diagnostic and Human Performance Journey.Sneak Peek: Sapiens WorkshopGet a behind-the-scenes look at a real Sapiens workshop with a CFO team.Mentioned StudiesImpact of long exhales on down-regulating the nervous system and improving moodImpact of microbiome composition on social decision makingThe connection between stress and empathyLink between empathy and inflammationSpecial Offer for ListenersJan-Philipp Martini, founder and CEO of Sapiens, is offering Transformative Leadership Conversations listeners a 20% discount on the Sapiens Stress & Resilience Diagnostic and Habit-Change Program, valid through the end of 2025.
