In this episode of Wired to Work, Jess Chapman sits down with meditation teachers Tina Pomroy of Going Om and Roz Mugford, producer of the show and founder of Double Barrel, to talk about what meditation actually is, what it isn’t, and why it may be far more relevant to work than most people think. They unpack: • the biggest misconceptions that stop people from trying meditation • why a busy mind doesn’t mean you’re doing it wrong • how meditation supports focus, emotional regulation, and stress management • what the research says about meditation and the brain • how meditation can help with reactivity, decision-making, and workplace conflict • simple ways to build mindfulness into the workday without making it weird This conversation is especially useful for leaders, teams, and skeptical high-achievers who assume meditation has nothing to do with performance. If you’ve ever thought, I don’t have time, I can’t meditate, or this isn’t really for work.. start here.
