ELEVATE Series 2025 with Jen Gaudet: Protect Your Bandwidth, Reclaim Your Edge
Jen Gaudet shares how to protect your mental capacity, optimize performance, and lead strategically through volatility.
In this ELEVATE Series session, Jen Gaudet, a corporate consultant, investor, serial entrepreneur, and host of the Power CEOs show, pulls back the curtain on what’s really happening inside today’s businesses. From decision fatigue and cognitive overload to failed AI integrations and eroded trust in marketing, Jen explains why leaders are struggling and what to do about it.
With deep insight from coaching founders, executives, and high-growth startups, Jen delivers a playbook for regaining clarity, cutting through noise, and staying relevant. Her frameworks prioritize recovery over hustle, personal metrics over vanity KPIs, and bandwidth protection over burnout. She also outlines the critical mistakes businesses make when adopting AI, and how to avoid them with people-first planning and clear governance policies.
Whether you’re a small business owner or C-suite executive, this is a must-watch conversation for anyone looking to sustain performance, embrace AI with confidence, and lead in a way that protects your energy and elevates your impact.
Here’s just some of the fantastic strategy and advice shared from this conversation:
👉 Overwhelmed leaders make underwhelming decisions—pause, breathe, and choose the one decision that frees mental space.
👉 Grind culture is outdated. True performance starts with sleep, movement, hydration, and white space for strategic thought.
👉 Most AI integrations fail not because of tech—but because of poor team adoption and lack of planning around people and process.
👉 95% of your AI effort should be about preparing your team, policies, and data—only 5% is the tool itself.
👉 Track your “plus two” energy across people, tasks, and workouts—if it depletes you, it’s time to pivot.
👉 Replace the hustle plan with a bandwidth protection plan—because you are the asset, and your energy is the edge.
