Mindfulness is a well-known tool for handling high-pressure situations, but when the going gets really tough, putting the theory into practice can become more of a challenge. Sarah Furness is a former combat pilot, who uses mindfulness techniques to help leaders perform and thrive "under fire". In this episode of the How to Thrive podcast, co-hosts and sisters Claire Sanders and Helen Silver-MacMahon learn all about Sarah's remarkable career, her journey through the military and beyond, and how mindfulness can help people thrive not just survive in high-pressure situations.
