Leading Without Burnout: Marina Kay on Breathwork, Clarity, and Nervous System Resilience
Episode 127
Monday, 9 March, 2026
In this episode of Clover, I sit down with Marina Kay, an executive coach and breathwork practitioner who helps women lead, build, and grow their careers without burning themselves out in the process.Marina shares the story of her own career journey, from working in HR consulting and sitting in Fortune 500 boardrooms to experiencing the intense pressure of startup culture while working at WeWork during its rise and fall. Along the way, she began noticing the toll that chronic stress and anxiety were taking on her body. What started as a search for relief eventually led her into yoga teacher training, health coaching, and ultimately the work she does today helping women build nervous system resilience.We talk about the many ways anxiety and stress show up in the body, including signals many women overlook or normalize, like brain fog, poor sleep, digestion issues, and constant mental pressure. Marina explains how these patterns develop and why so many high-achieving women end up operating in survival mode without realizing it.We also dive into the power of breathwork and nervous system regulation. Marina shares how she introduces these practices to founders, executives, and high-performing professionals who are used to operating in high-pressure environments. She also walks through a few simple breathing practices that anyone can use during the workday to calm their nervous system and regain focus.This conversation is about more than stress management. It is about learning how to listen to your body, reconnect with yourself, and build a career and life that do not come at the cost of your well-being.Resources & MentionsWomen Who Breathe – Marina’s website and online community with breathwork resources, practices, and coursesWomen Who Breathe Community – Free access to guided breathwork recordings, somatic practices, meditations, and nervous system toolsMarina Kay on LinkedIn – Connect with Marina professionallyWomen Who Breathe on Instagram and TikTok – Breathwork education, nervous system tips, and community updatesIn-person Austin breathwork session on March 10th - use code FIESTA for a discount on ticketsMarch 25th free virtual session for any women who want to experience breathwork from home.
