What Hollywood & tech taught me about deep work with Steven Puri

In this episode, I sit down with Steven Puri, a creative visionary who spent more than two decades leading world-class remote teams — from his time as EVP at DreamWorks and VP at 20th Century Fox to becoming a 3x tech CEO.

From the creative chaos of Hollywood to the fast-paced world of tech, Steven discovered what truly drives high performance, creativity, and extraordinary results — and it’s not more hours, hustle, or meetings. It’s deep work, stillness, and genuine care for people.

You’ll discover:

Why the most successful leaders protect sacred stillness — scheduling time blocks with zero expectations or team interaction so creativity can emerge

How to stop procrastinating and start producing through intentional focus, rhythm, and environment design

Why your best ideas appear when you’re not trying — like in the shower or while washing dishes — when the brain’s executive function rests or focuses on one thing that is already habit and creativity switches on

The secret to short, high-impact focus sessions that multiply productivity and quality of work

How you can feel through technology when something is built with genuine care and consciousness — because that energy is transmuted into everything we create

How your energy influences others on a cellular level — your frequency, focus, and emotional state ripple through your team and shape the collective performance

Steven’s stories reveal a powerful truth:

Productivity isn’t about doing more — it’s about doing the right things with the right energy.
The culture you create, the energy you carry, and the stillness you protect all determine how far your team — and your vision — can go.

If you’ve ever wanted to produce higher-quality work, feel more focused, and lead with presence and intention in a noisy world — this conversation will inspire you to master deep work from the inside out.
