Welcome to ”Sit Down, Be Present,” the podcast that guides you on a transformative journey toward presence-driven leadership. If you’re overwhelmed by busyness and feeling the weight of endless responsibilities, this podcast is for you. Imagine leading with purpose, loving authentically, and growing personally—all by embracing the power of being present. My name is Marisa Hattab, a teacher, trainer, mother of 3, wife, coach, and culture transformer. I don’t know if you’ve ever heard of Enneagram 2, but I am a “Helper “ through and through. I truly find joy in partnering with people and helping them accomplish their dreams, goals, and aspirations. I found fulfillment in running my children to and fro, helping to support my husband and his aspirations, and serving in my community and church. But if I’m honest, I was living in a perpetual cycle of fulfillment and depletion. I found myself exhausted. Constantly doing and producing. You see I learned that my productivity came with a cost……that cost was my well being. My joy. My purpose. My peace………..and REST. I desperately wanted to bring balance but did not know how……until God lovingly slowed me down and put my life on PAUSE. He taught me how to prioritize an uninterrupted surrendered engagement with him, others, and MYSELF. It was through this practice that I learned how to hone in on what I call “Presence- Driven Leadership.” Join us as we explore how to: - Lead: Unlock the secrets of authentic connection and presence-driven leadership to enrich your relationships and inspire positive change. - Be: Discover how to strategically use your time and energy, letting go of busyness to create meaningful connections and experiences. - Let Go: Break free from limiting beliefs, redefine your identity beyond productivity, and learn to love better through genuine connections. - See: Gain clarity and deepen your relationships with heightened awareness and understanding of yourself and others. Through real-life stories, insightful reflections, and practical advice, ”Sit Down, Be Present” will help you reconnect with your true self, foster deeper relationships, and lead in a way that’s sustainable and fulfilling. Whether you’re a seasoned leader or just beginning your journey, this podcast will empower you to be fully present and transform how you lead and live. I’m too geeked you’ve joined me and hope you connect with me by visiting me on Marisahattab.com and my social media platforms. Now I invite you to sit down and just beeeeeeee......
