4. Julie Gearie “How to Destress as a CEO" with Sculpt and Flow Fitness

In a world where high-ranking roles come with relentless pressure, long hours, and constant decision-making, self-care is often the first thing sacrificed. This episode speaks directly to leaders who feel stretched thin, overwhelmed, and quietly exhausted. We sit down with Julie Gearie, CEO of GWG Recruitment, for a refreshingly honest conversation about stress, responsibility, and the reality of leading at the top. Julie opens up about what life really looks like behind the title—and how she made the conscious decision to stop putting her health last. Julie shares how her training at Sculpt and Flow became a turning point. Not as a “nice-to-have” wellness extra, but as a non-negotiable priority that now underpins how she leads, thinks, and lives. We explore: How Julie realistically finds time to exercise while running a successful recruitment business Why movement became essential for managing stress, clarity, and energy—not just fitness How Sculpt and Flow helped her reconnect with her body, reset mentally, and create sustainable habits What happens when a CEO gives herself permission to put health first—and why it made her a better leader This episode is for executives, founders, and senior professionals who feel like they’re constantly “on,” who know they should look after themselves but don’t know where to start—or believe they don’t have the time. Because the truth is: you don’t find time for your health—you decide it’s a priority. And once you do, everything else changes.
