Description

In this reflective episode, Ben Johnson shares a powerful train encounter that sparks a meditation on father-son relationships, emotional legacy, and the subtle forces shaping how we show up in stressful moments, at work or home. From Zen monk Haemin Sunim to regenerative thinker Giles Hutchins, Ben explores the tension between hot-headed reactions, cold withdrawal, and the grounded clarity of the "middle way." Drawing from LeanMind’s practical tools, listeners are invited to consider how past stories and silent wishes influence their everyday leadership—especially in the heat of parenting, work, and self-worth.
