Emotional recovery is not a wellness initiative. It is infrastructure.
Ask most leaders to describe a high performer, and you’ll hear some version of the same profile: sharp, resilient, and relentless. Ask those same leaders what they mean by resilient, and the answer almost always collapses into two dimensions: mental toughness and physical stamina. We have built entire leadership development industries around cognitive acuity and physical wellness. What we have largely ignored is the third pillar: emotional recovery.
