If your work feels draining, your team’s energy is low, and productivity is stalling, it’s not a systems problem—it’s a flow problem.
In this episode of the Happy Productive Podcast, Jennifer sits down with Diane Allen—keynote speaker, violinist, and author of Flow: Unlock Your Genius. Love What You Do—to unpack the science and strategy behind getting into your flow state on demand.
Diane shares how a career-defining onstage freeze led her to reverse-engineer flow so leaders and business owners can work smarter, fuel their teams, and rediscover the joy in what they do.
You’ll learn how to:
• Identify your personal flow triggers to reignite energy and focus
• Lead your business from a place of inspired alignment
• Tap into your team’s full potential through group flow
• Turn stressful, stuck moments into momentum and clarity
• Use flow as a tool for decision-making, leadership, and performance
If you’re feeling burned out or disconnected from your business—this episode is your reset.
