[S4, Ep36] Harness PQ for Greater Business Success and Effective Leadership with Founder Lindsay White

In this week's Female Founder Unplugged episode, I dive deep into a concept that has completely changed the way I lead, make decisions, and run my business — Positive Intelligence (PQ). If you've ever struggled with self-doubt, stress, or frustration as a founder, this episode is for you. I break down the science behind mental fitness and how PQ can help you intercept negative thought patterns, access your inner “sage,” and build a more resilient business (and life). I also reference a previous episode where I share one of the biggest setbacks I’ve faced — and how PQ helped me navigate through it.
