She opens up about the three practices sustaining her as a new entrepreneur—rest, reflection, and regeneration—and how they shape the way she now supports leaders. This is a conversation about resilience, self-honesty, sustainable leadership, and what it really means to build a business that aligns with your values from day one.Michaun Winborn is the CEO and Principal Coach at Born2Win Coaching, a leadership development practice that reduces legal and reputational risk for organizations by coaching executives into inclusive, culturally intelligent leaders.
