It’s about making sure I don’t react in an emotional way. If I receive some bad news, I try to take time to decompress—just pause for a moment. I try to fully understand the situation before reacting, because if I respond immediately, I’m likely reacting purely out of emotion. Thoughts on Breathing I talk to non-native players I coach about what I call a tactical pause. That is where you pause the game and take a minute or 30 seconds to reset yourself mentally. Because you're so focused and running on adrenaline, it’s necessary to reset your breathing and focus and just calm yourself down. Suggested Resources Book: The Diary of a CEO: The 33 Laws of Business and Life by Steven Bartlett App: n/a Bullying Question One of the main things right now in esports is inclusivity. There's a massive push in trying to make people more inclusive, like the industry more inclusive, especially to the women's female audience. Esports is a very male dominated industry right now. Slowly it's starting to change. But there is a lot of core ground level work that needs to be done in order to make women feel more welcome. It's not obviously all people, but some are very toxic in terms of their behavior and how they react overall.

I have to make sure I don’t explode, walk out, or start shouting—reactive behaviors like that won’t help me accomplish anything. Instead, I step away, take a moment to reset, go for a walk, get some fresh air, and take a deep breath. Thoughts on Breathing I think that breathing is indicative of where you are at emotionally. If I am rushing and am out of breath, I know I am I danger of over-reacting. Suggested Resources Book: Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance by Angela Duckworth App: Happyful  Bullying Question After my parents split, my siblings and I, all very young, were sent from Canada to the UK, where life became chaotic. We had no stable home, struggled to adapt, and faced bullying at school due to our accents and outsider status. With little adult support or accountability, it was a harsh environment. That experience shaped my passion today—recognizing how, even in corporate life, a lack of accountability can allow similar harm to persist.

I also practice meditation. I allow myself just to take a pause and let myself feel the full range of emotions. If I'm angry or sad, I let myself feel it. Once that emotion is out, I can continue being happy and productive throughout the day. Thoughts on Breathing People tell me to do it, but I don't use breathing [special breathing techniques] that much. When I walk, my breathing auto adjusts to the level I need it to be. Suggested Resources Book: The Art of Impossible: A Peak Performance Primer by Steven Kotler, Fred Sanders, et al. App: Wisdom Orb (not available yet) Bullying Question Regarding bullying, I think it has to do with a lack of self-awareness. When I was younger, I wasn't as self-aware as I am now. I've had years of personal development. Maybe I wasn't always as empathetic. I see now that human connection is something that needs to be nurtured consciously. It does matter how you communicate.

William Huang is the Co-Founder and CEO of Auria Robotics, a Vancouver-based startup. Founded by parents, educators, and technologists, Auria Robotics develops AI-powered audio robots for personalized autism intervention and support. These interactive companions use emotional recognition and adaptive learning to provide real-time support in homes, schools, and clinics, responding to each child's unique needs, even when a therapist is unavailable. Contact Info Website: www.AuriaRobot.com The Robot The Auria Robotics team has developed an AI-powered robot designed to support children with autism. With diagnoses rising—now affecting 1 in 31 children in North America—access to therapy remains limited due to high costs and a shortage of specialists. The Auria robot utilizes generative AI, emotional recognition, and adaptive learning to monitor each child’s behavior. The robot delivers personalized, real-time interventions, particularly when a therapist is unavailable. More About The Robot The Auria Robotics robot is an interactive, AI-powered companion designed to support children with autism. An iPad, serving as the robot's "brain," connects via Bluetooth and runs software that enables personalized responses. The robot helps children feel calm, happy, and engaged through playful interactions. It can dance, give rewards, and celebrate successful sessions, making therapy more enjoyable and emotionally supportive. It can be used at home or in schools. How It Supports An Autistic Child Autism intervention is expensive—often $150 to $160 per hour—and government funding is limited, especially after a child turns six. The Auria Robotics robot provides an affordable alternative by emulating a therapist’s role at home when professional services are unavailable. Is Adult Supervision Required? Not necessarily is adult supervision required. The robot functions as both a teaching tool and a companion. Powered by generative AI, it's capable of autonomous interaction—communicating with the child, monitoring behavior, and even relaying information to parents. It's like having a supportive friend always present, blending emotional connection with practical therapeutic support.

It didn’t matter if you'd just put your dog down that morning—you still had to be present, mindful, and helpful to others. I actually learned to ground myself and use deep breathing to reset in about 30 seconds. That skill stuck with me, and to this day, I use it whenever I feel my emotions starting to get away from me. It’s been incredibly helpful.  Thoughts on Breathing You know, I often laugh because you'd think something as simple as breathing wouldn’t be that important—but it really is. I first learned different breathing techniques in prenatal classes, and they’ve stayed with me ever since. I still use them whenever I need to. Suggested Resources Book: n/a App: Calm  Bullying Question Regarding bullying, what comes to mind for me is that before we take action, we should sit in the moment and process. Instead of being reactive to something, take the time to pause. Sometimes we react too quickly, and we don't get all the facts. We don't reflect on what's going on before we take action.

There was one thing that stood out to me. It was called wiseman theory. You have the emotional brain on one end and the logical brain on the other. They are two sides of the spectrum. To get to the wiseman, it's somewhere in the middle. It's a mix of emotion and logic.  Thoughts on Breathing Breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth. That typical yoga breathing is where I try to be. My coordinator, Nikol was on the plane with me yesterday and I was trying to get all kinds of deadlines done. She was suggesting I breathe, and that was helpful. Suggested Resources Book: The Untethered Soul by Michael A. Singer App: Calm  Bullying Story There are many stories, but one that stands out is from an early job where I faced inappropriate comments and a lack of trust in my work. Looking back, I wonder how I would’ve responded if I had the mindset I have now. Mindfulness has taught me to accept where you are in the moment—that every experience is part of growth. The real shift comes from knowing when to speak up, when to listen, and how to move forward with intention.

Before Your Time Runs Out by Karen Salmansohn Most Influential Person Aristotle Effect on Emotions Mindfulness helps calm the noisy “monkey mind,” much like letting a shaken snow globe settle so the scene becomes clear. When emotions run high, the brain shifts from the rational neocortex to the reactive “fight or flight” area, making clear thinking difficult. Mindfulness allows emotions to settle, restoring clarity and thoughtful response. Practices like journaling or quiet contemplation help achieve this state. To live our best lives, we need to create space for mindfulness in our daily routines. Thoughts on Breathing I studied Ishta yoga and meditation to deepen my personal practice, not to teach, but to better understand how and why it works. Breathing exercises are powerful, even simple mindful breathing. With my young son, traditional prompts like “breathe” upset him, so I used a Spider-Man pinwheel. I showed him how to blow on it to watch it spin—an engaging, visual way to teach mindful breathing through playful, focused exhalation. I also taught him meditation exercises. I put these in my Instant Calm book that I wrote, which was about mindfulness and meditation.

Before Your Time Runs Out by Karen Salmansohn App: Calm  Bullying Story I have a son who’s now in high school, but during middle school, he experienced some bullying—kids at that age can be really cruel. I believe mindfulness could help not only the bullies themselves, but also those being bullied. When my son was going through that, I encouraged him to be mindful and reflect on why the bullies might be acting that way. Were they jealous? Hurting? Struggling at home? Mindfulness helps both sides better understand and manage their emotions.

Thoughts on Breathing I do a lot of box breathing. I try to go out and stick my feet in the grass when I can. I will hug a tree, be one with nature, and be able to regulate my nervous system.  Suggested Resources Book: Authors Brene Brown and Mel Robbins Book: The Other Side of the Gun: My Journey from Trauma to Resiliency by Susan Snow   App: Calm and Youtube Bullying Story When you've gone through trauma, you do not realize you are being bullied. There is a part of being in the trauma where you feel like you deserve something. When people are bullies to you, you take it. Three weeks after my dad was killed, I went back to school. Most of the kids tiptoed around me. The first day I went back, I was sitting in class and this kid turned around to me and asked me how many bullets hit my dad. He was really graphic and he was saying it with a smile on his face.

Are they in pain? Is there something deeper behind their behavior?” Mindfulness has made me more compassionate and less reactive. I also think of Jack Welch’s principle: accept reality as it is, not as you wish it were. That mindset has shaped how I deal with emotions; by facing the truth of a situation and responding with clarity rather than impulse.  Thoughts on Breathing I don't have a breathing practice. I do meditate, and naturally, breathing is a part of that—especially as I settle into the meditation. But I don’t have a specific routine or technique focused solely on breath, so I wouldn’t really call it a breathing practice.

Comments were overlooked, and when assignments were completed on time, they were unfairly criticized. Despite raising concerns with management, support was not found. Peers began criticizing the work, and the employee was gradually marginalized. The systemic bullying made the employee feel that continuing to work was futile.

The emotions still hit me—it's just a matter of how I deal with them. I'm not a toddler; I can handle it. It's important to me to stay calm and do what I need to do, no matter what. Even if I'm having a rough day or something's bothering me, it doesn't change the fact that the work still has to get done. It's really about having control over how those emotions affect you.  Thoughts on Breathing There's box breathing, where you breathe in for less time than you breathe out. When I need it, the most important thing for me to remember is simply to take that breath. Even just a few moments of intentional, slow breathing can make the biggest difference. Suggested Resources Book: Breaking The Habit of Being Yourself by Dr. Joe Dispenza App: Bend (For Android) (This App is for stretching) App: Bend (For IOS) Bullying Story I was always pretty friendly growing up, but over time, I became more mindful through small moments that taught me about self-control. I can’t recall specific events, but I remember feeling disappointed in myself afterward, thinking, “That reaction wasn’t who I want to be.” Even when someone was unkind, I didn’t want to stoop to shouting or insults. I’ve worked hard to rise above that. For me, even letting a careless comment slip feels out of line with the standards I’ve set.

Most emotions take time for me to understand. Mindfulness, especially through journaling, helps me sort through my emotions. By reflecting honestly on my role in a situation, I stop blaming others and start seeing solutions. Sometimes it takes days, but by the end, I feel clearer, more in control, and able to turn difficult emotions into something positive. Thoughts on Breathing When I’m out in nature, I intentionally slow down and take everything in; the sound of a bird, a bug on a leaf, a bud on a tree. Sometimes I’ll stop completely, even if I am with someone, and just listen or look in silence. During those moments, I breathe deeply through my nose, filling my lungs and feeling my chest expand. That simple act of breathing helps me feel present, grounded, and genuinely happy to be alive.

One is to know that we're not meant to be happy every minute. The other is that when I feel bad, I look for a pattern. For me, it was often the anticipation of criticism. I would project that this person is criticizing me, because I was criticized a lot when I was young. Then I realized, they're not criticizing me. They're just doing their own thing.  Thoughts on Breathing This breathing topic is a real big challenge for me. I've tried all the breathing techniques. Because I have severe scoliosis, my spine and my rib cage are not aligned. My neck and my pelvis are not aligned. I'm fine when I'm active, but when I'm resting, it's a problem. Partly, I think it's because I've taken all these breathing classes. The breathing classes have caused me to override my natural breathing which is perfect.

You feel like you have to keep rising in the status hierarchy to keep getting the serotonin.

So you get triggered and you have to understand what triggered you. You will see patterns and then you will know what is likely to trigger you in the future. Then you have to be mindful about the invisible stuff going on in your head. You have to expand your vision to see the invisible causes inside. Then you have all the puzzle pieces and you can work magic. Thoughts on Breathing Breathing is a great stress and anger management technique. It's good in the short run and it does help. Breathing alone does not teach you how to identify those filters. It doesn't help you cure the problem. But every time the anger comes up, you can use breathing to give you some short-term benefit.  Suggested Resources Book: Doctor Orman's Life-Changing Anger Cure Book: Stress Relief Wisdom by Dr. Mort Orman Bullying Story Regarding bullying, it depends on the emotion that gets triggered. Sometimes it can be shame, guilt or anxiety. Each of those emotions will have their own set of filters so you can literally work through those emotions if they are paralyzing in some way. You can learn to understand how your brain is making you feel them. Sometimes there's anger associated with being bullied. Sometimes there's anger in the bully so they are looking through the three filters.
