Define Yourself First | Jason Widup, SVP of Marketing at Pixis

Jason Widup went from white‑knuckle anxiety to an eight‑hour‑sleep evangelist—and his team is better for it. In this episode, he and Jolie trade notes on self‑doubt, parenting curveballs, and why a morning workout beats doom‑scrolling every time. If you’re leading with an empty battery, press play before you press send. 

Key Takeaways
