About
I'm a finance leader, not a wellness speaker. I've spent my career being accountable for results, which is exactly the lens I bring to human capacity. Where most programs offer inspiration that fades by Friday, I build operational systems leaders can defend in a budget meeting. This includes frameworks that are analog-first, measurable, and designed for sustainable performance, not feel-good theater. If you want substance over slogans, that's the difference.
The Human Cost of AI
As organizations race to adopt AI, a quieter crisis is unfolding. Employees are overwhelmed by digital saturation, attention is fragmenting, nervous systems are dysregulated, and the human foundation that drives judgment, creativity, and trust is eroding. In this talk, Laura Polen challenges leaders to confront the human cost of AI acceleration and offers a framework for protecting the capacity that technology cannot replace.
Why Wellness Programs are Failing
Most corporate wellness initiatives address symptoms without touching the root cause. This talk explores why traditional programs fall short and what a human-capacity approach looks like in practice.
Leading with a Regulated Nervous System
Leadership presence is not a personality trait. It is a physiological state. This talk introduces nervous system regulation as a leadership competency and shows how regulated leaders create calmer, more focused teams.
