James Wong, founder and your host at The Calm Lab

I'm not your typical business guru. With a background in counselling and rites of passage work, I help founders navigate stress, strengthen relationships, and break through inner blocks to build ventures that matter.
A founder sums The Calm Lab up in one word — "Refreshing!"
Growing a business is lonely.
Running a business means making tough calls every day — with incomplete information on challenges you’ve probably never faced before. It’s a lot.In our experience, the best way to handle it all is to learn from the wins and mistakes of others and surround yourself with business owners who’ve been through it too.
Whether you’re just getting started, deep in the messy middle of growth, or gearing up for an exit, finding your people isn’t always easy.But when you do, it’s a game changer.That’s what The Calm Lab is for.
When you join, you get instant access to other entrepreneurs who are facing the same hurdles as you. People who get it.
