In this episode of the Move the Ball podcast, host Jen Garrett kicks off a brand-new two-part solo series, The Power Performance Series: Energy, Focus & Execution at the Executive Level. Part 1, titled Energy Intelligence, explores how high-performing executives manage their energy—not just their time—to lead with clarity, endurance, and impact. Jen breaks down the four dimensions of energy—mental, emotional, physical, and environmental—and shares practical strategies, client stories, and executive insights to help you avoid burnout, sharpen your decision-making, and create sustainable momentum. Whether you’re leading teams, navigating high-pressure environments, or striving to elevate your performance, this episode shows you how to harness your energy as the true driver of executive success.
