    Episode 103 - From Self-Doubt to Coaching Mastery: How to Become the Coach You're Meant to Be

    Play Episode Listen Later Feb 12, 2025 40:24


    Welcome to Episode 103 of the #BigTalk podcast. In this episode, we tackle one of the most common struggles coaches face: self-doubt. Whether you're new to coaching or looking to level up your business, it's natural to feel insecure or uncertain about your path. If you've ever felt like an imposter, feared judgment, or worried you're not good enough to lead, you're not alone. But here's the truth: good intentions, a willingness to help others, and positive thinking alone won't lead to coaching mastery. In today's episode, we dive deep into the root cause of self-doubt and how it holds many coaches back from stepping into their true potential. You'll learn how self-doubt shows up in your coaching practice - whether it's procrastination, fear of visibility, or feeling overwhelmed by the responsibility of leading others. We'll also talk about how shadow work and psychodynamic practices can help you break through these barriers, build unshakeable confidence, and move into authentic coaching leadership. Whether you're a new or aspiring coach, or a coach who's ready to go deeper into their craft this episode is for you if you're ready to stop second-guessing yourself and step into the coach you're truly meant to be. Tune in and discover the high-level solution that will help you shift from self-doubt to coaching mastery. * Note: there is some adult language in this episode so wear earphones if you have sensitive ears around* Thanks so much for stopping by and until next time... much love.

    Welcome to Episode 102 of the #BigTalk podcast. In this episode, we dive into the Call to Adventure, the first step of the Hero's Journey. This universal story pattern, rooted in ancient myths and psychology, mirrors the moment in our lives when we're invited to step out of the familiar and into the unknown - just as 2025 is doing for so many of us. But at this crossroads, many of us face an inner tug of war: fear urges us to stay safe, while curiosity tempts us to explore the possibilities of change. Using powerful storytelling and relatable examples, we explore how the Call to Adventure manifests in real life - whether through a personal crisis, a sense of restlessness, or a sudden opportunity. You'll learn why fear often arises in these moments, how curiosity can act as a quiet guide, and how to tip the scales toward growth. By the end of this episode, you'll have a new lens to see the challenges in your life not as obstacles but as invitations to transformation. Together, we'll reflect on the small steps you can take to embrace your inner hero and start answering your own Call to Adventure. * Note: there is some adult language in this episode so wear earphones if you have sensitive ears around* Thanks so much for stopping by and until next time... much love.

    Welcome to Episode 101 of the #BigTalk podcast. Are you unknowingly holding yourself back by staying in “Good Girl” energy? In this episode, we dive deep into the impact of “Good Girl” conditioning on your business, your profit potential, and the breakthroughs you're striving to achieve with your clients. If you've ever felt the need to please, play small, or prioritise perfection, this episode reveals why those habits might actually be undermining your growth.

The Role of the Shadow Feminine in Business: Discover how tapping into your Shadow Feminine – the repressed, unapologetic, and deeply powerful aspects of yourself – can transform your approach to business and create space for genuine, sustainable success. Three Ways the Shadow Feminine Supports Breakthroughs: Learn practical strategies for how the Shadow Feminine helps unlock boldness, creativity, and authenticity, driving both profit and impact. This episode is for the visionary woman ready to shift from compliance to confidence, from playing it safe to standing out boldly, and from people-pleasing to powerful leadership. Step beyond “Good Girl” expectations, embrace the Shadow Feminine, and watch how it impacts your success, your profit, and your ability to facilitate meaningful client transformations. * Note: there is some adult language in this episode so wear earphones if you have sensitive ears around* Thanks so much for stopping by and until next time... much love.

Join me as we explore how these unconscious aspects of ourselves influence the way we experience love and intimacy, often creating the intense, spiritual feelings we associate with falling in love. You'll discover: - How the shadow, as defined by Carl Jung, manifests in romantic relationships and why it holds the key to understanding your deepest desires and fears. - The role of projection in love - how we unconsciously project our own repressed qualities onto our partners, leading to both intense attraction and inevitable disillusionment. - Practical tips for recognising and integrating these unconscious forces to foster healthier, more authentic connections with your partner.

If the last few years have taught us anything, it's that our client's problems are bigger and more magnified than ever before. So as coaches and practitioners, the demand for our transformational services is real! But here's the hard truth... So many gifted and good-hearted coaches in this industry go unseen because they've been taught to rely on overwhelming and outdated marketing tactics such as: :: Trying to keep up with the latest jazzy social media trends :: 'Doing all of the things' like posting a million times a day! :: Chasing down prospects with pushy DM-strategies :: ... or they cross their fingers and hope for word of mouth to spread.  None of these tactics are inherently wrong or bad. ... but I'm a big believer in supporting my clients to lean into sustainable, nourishing growth strategies that are supportive of their business goals and frankly, the kind of life they want to live. I'll be sharing the 5 key insights that I've learned after supporting hundreds of clients to create aligned and thriving online businesses - and how you can do the same.

    Welcome to Episode 84 of the #BigTalk podcast. What is the ego and why does it cause problems in our life? In this episode, I clarify Jung's definition of the ego and the role it plays in our early life development, and how it influences our adult life. When we get 'underneath' the Ego, this is where we begin to understand our true personality. In this episode we explore: What is the ego, exactly? Should we aim to 'kill off' or 'get rid' of the ego like many of the spiritual gurus talk about? How can we co-exist with the ego without letting it run our life. How facing the Ego/Shadow split allows us to enjoy free will, and real results in your business and life generally. * Note: there is some adult language in this episode so wear earphones if you have sensitive ears around* Thanks so much for stopping by and until next time... much love.

    Welcome to Episode 79 of the #BigTalk podcast. 'Failure' means to trip. To stumble. From the time we were a baby learning to walk, failure has been an energetic presence in our lives. None of us are immune from the feelings that failure can conjure within us - embarrassment, powerlessness, doubt, even shame. Failure can also cause us to question what we thought we knew, as it shatters our ego's sense of certainty. In today's episode, I want to go deeper into exploring the gifts of failure. It's not JUST about building resilience and learning lessons... but for those willing to do the inner work, failure actually calls us forward to experience a divinity of experience, and a remarkable shift in attitude and identity. After all, failure will rip our ego masks from our faces and force us to confront the truth of who we thought we were, and what's meaningful and important to us. Ready for a magic carpet ride into the world of failure?

Bypassing happens when you don't want to see, feel or experience what is happening. It is a kind of deep avoidance of reality and the part we play in our circumstances. There are many reasons why we do this, most of which point back to us not wanting to face our unhealed parts.

    Welcome to Episode 71 of the #BigTalk podcast. I know that growing your online coaching, wellness, or consulting business is a top priority for you and I know that you want the impact and freedom that comes from working for yourself. But here's the truth: No online marketing tactic will work if you can't: a) Overcome your fears of your business 'not working out'; and b) Cultivate the strategic, but heart-led, CEO mindset you need for mega success. I don't care what anyone else says: There is no coach, course or silver-bullet marketing strategy that can give you a 'business success recipe' without these two crucial factors. Sure, you can throw a load of cash at the problem and spend a fortune on a beautiful website, brand photoshoot, or take a course to 'explode your Insta following'... Likewise, you can 'add value' in all of the FB groups and jump on a bunch of live streams every day to inspire people... You can even create your unique, aligned, awesome offer and feel amazing about it... ... But if you cannot overcome your fear of failure, your imposter syndrome, or your fear of not being able to deliver results to your clients, then none of this stuff matters. In today's episode, I share the Number One Lesson my team and I have learned from taking 3,000 coaching and sales calls over the years.

    Welcome to Episode 65 of the #BigTalk podcast. "The feminine is the weather, the masculine is the atmosphere it plays out in". Typically in business, the masculine energy is revered because it's action-orientated, goal-kicking, and structured. Whereas the creative, intuitive, playful feminine energy is sidelined as being less valuable. The truth is, both energies are equally important if you want to turbo-charge your results AND have a blast along the way! But what I see, is people coming to me feeling burnout and exhausted because their business has become a misaligned burden. They feel frazzled, anxious, and totally disconnected. Why is that? Do they just need a better strategy? A better lead system? A better diet? More exercise? A better coach? Maybe. But I believe there's something else much deeper going on beneath the surface and the secret lies in how people access and harness their masculine and feminine energies... Ready to dive into the world of energetic duality? See you on the inside! Note: Masculine and feminine energies are not about gender constructs, as I'll explain in today's episode. I believe we all have access to both of these deep wells of power, regardless of how we identify. * Note: there is some adult language in this episode so wear earphones if you have sensitive ears around* Thanks so much for stopping by and until next time... much love.

It offends the sensibilities of our inner ‘good girl' who was raised to nurture, serve, smile and be sweet.⁠ ⁠ But part of our depth and deliciousness as women, is our inner Destroyer. It's the part of our psyche that prepares us for new life, new visions, new direction, new creations.⁠ ⁠ The Destroyer is the part of us that wields a sword to cut out what no longer serves us. ⁠ ⁠ It's the part of us that, if given a chance, will set fire to everything that is misaligned.⁠ ⁠ … and it's our destructive power that we fear most.⁠ ⁠ (Because to create something new, you tend to destroy something old… and we like to cling to ‘old').⁠ ⁠ It's when my clients call forward this part of themselves, that the biggest shifts happen in their business (and their life).⁠ ⁠ Old services are scrapped.⁠ Misaligned branding goes in the bin.⁠ Limiting beliefs are shed.⁠ Unhealthy attachments are cut.⁠ Pricing systems are thrown out.⁠ Team members are fired.⁠ ⁠ … and suddenly there is space to birth something new, aligned, wonderful!

The roots actually go much deeper... * Note: there is some adult language in this episode so wear earphones if you have sensitive ears around* Thanks so much for stopping by and until next time... much love.
