Like a Wave We Break: featuring Jane Chen

Overcoming Burnout to Lead with Resilience and Alignment

In her national bestselling memoir, Like a Wave We Break, leadership coach Jane Chen pulls back the curtain on the conventional narrative of professional success. Please register.

As the co-founder and former CEO of Embrace Global, Jane Chen’s groundbreaking work with a portable incubator impacted over one million premature babies across 25 countries, earning international acclaim. Yet, behind the global recognition lay an invisible crisis: a relentless pursuit of purpose that ultimately resulted in total burnout. Her journey through that breakdown and subsequent healing reshaped her entire approach to what it means to guide others through uncertainty and change.

This webinar offers a masterclass in shifting from fear-based performance to sustainable, aligned leadership. Drawing from her executive background and her training with the Conscious Leadership Group, Jane bridges the gap between high-level leadership strategy and deep self-actualization. Participants will analyze how the intersection of emotional literacy and physical intuition can transform executive paralysis into clear, decisive action. Whether you are an executive steering a team through a major pivot or an individual seeking to align your daily work with your core values, this session provides a science-backed, deeply human blueprint for resilient leadership.
