ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In this episode of The Chōten Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Kari Sulenes, a psychologist, executive coach, and founder who specializes in helping high-achieving leaders build emotional resilience, self-awareness, and sustainable success.
Dr. Sulenes has spent her career working with founders, executives, and mission-driven entrepreneurs — guiding them through the inner work required to lead with clarity, navigate uncertainty, and avoid burnout. Her approach blends psychology, somatics, leadership science, and practical tools for mental and emotional well-being.
This conversation goes deep into the mind of the modern founder and the pressures that come with building something meaningful.
We dive into:
🔥 The emotional and psychological challenges founders don’t talk about
🔥 Why success often triggers anxiety, self-doubt, or imposter syndrome
🔥 The role somatics plays in leadership and decision-making
🔥 How to build sustainable habits that prevent burnout
🔥 The importance of self-awareness in scaling a company
🔥 What healthy leadership looks like in 2025 and beyond
🔥 How AI is impacting founder psychology, identity, and performance
Dr. Kari shares frameworks, strategies, and insights that every founder, creator, and executive needs in an era defined by rapid change and constant pressure.
If you’re building something — or becoming someone — this episode will resonate deeply.
