Ep. 78 – Leading with the Brain in Mind: A Conversation with Dr. Khai Win

This special episode of Pillar Talk brings a fresh and powerful perspective to leadership—straight from the brain. Chris sits down with Dr. Khai Win, Neuroscientist, Founder of Invisible Wins LLC, a neuroscientist, leadership coach, and mental health advocate who’s on a mission to transform how we lead, live, and take care of ourselves in high-pressure environments.

Together, they explore what it means to lead with the brain in mind—from the science behind our fear responses and emotional triggers to the simple (and often overlooked) tools that can rewire how we show up for our teams and ourselves.

You’ll hear how Dr. Win’s work blends hard neuroscience with real-world leadership, including:

• Why emotional awareness is the foundation of powerful leadership
• What brain-friendly communication actually looks like
• How high-performers can use science to avoid burnout
• And why soft skills are really science-based skills

Whether you’re a clinician, administrator, or executive, this episode will shift how you think about leadership—and leave you with practical strategies to lead more effectively and sustainably.
