Feeling stressed at work? Join Rachel Rider as she shares how spirituality can help you feel calmer and make better choices. Tune in to learn how connecting with your inner self can transform your work life and boost your confidence!

In this episode of the Business Growth Architect Show, we go deep into a transformative conversation with Rachel Rider, an Executive Leadership coach who works with C-Level executives who is known for her integration of spirituality and holistic practices into her Coaching methods. 

Rachel’s approach challenges the conventional image of Executive Leadership coaching, which often focuses solely on performance metrics and strategic goals. Instead, she emphasizes the importance of a spiritual practice, noting that most successful people she knows have some form of spiritual grounding. This, she believes, is essential for tapping into deeper sources of Wisdom and resilience.

Rachel's approach combines cognitive awareness, somatic experiencing, and shamanic principles. Rachel discusses the critical importance of understanding our basic survival mechanisms—fight, flight, freeze, or fawn—and how these deeply ingrained responses can either hinder or enhance our leadership abilities. 

Rachel shares her early start with Zen Buddhist practices at the age of 13, highlighting how Meditation and mindfulness laid the foundation for her understanding of how the mind works. She emphasizes the value of meditation in noticing thought patterns and discerning which thoughts serve us and which do not.

Rachel integrates somatic experiences to address the nervous system's responses. She discusses how understanding where our nervous system is stuck due to past Trauma can help you to resolve feeling paralyzed and unable to make decisions or push through Anxiety faster.

Adding yet another layer to her Executive Leadership coaching approach, Rachel explores her training in shamanism and her work with crystals. She shares how her connection to the natural world and understanding of energy dynamics have profoundly influenced her coaching practice. Rachel's relationship with the natural world, guided by her training under a Taoist stone expert, underscores her belief in the palpable presence of energy and its impact on our interactions and decisions.

If you are curious about Rachel’s methods and looking to start your own journey, she offers practical advice on connecting with your authentic selves. She suggests a simple yet powerful Exercise: reflecting on moments during the week when you felt most like themselves. 

Rachel Rider’s unique blend of cognitive, somatic, and spiritual practices offers a transformative path for leaders seeking more than just conventional success. Her insights and methodologies provide a holistic framework that integrates mind, body, and spirit, paving the way for a more balanced, authentic, and effective leadership style.
