Podcast appearances and mentions of Jamie Smart

I'm sharing a brief extract from this month's private Clarity Coaches Tribe Masterclass, where I explored something that feels increasingly clear to me: many of the challenges we're facing (and will face in the years ahead) can't be solved purely at the psychological or even the practical level. In this short clip, I talk about: • What the Dalai Lama says is missing from modern education • The unexpected difference people started to notice in me when I moved from NLP to the principles • And what may be the subtlest yet most powerful thing you bring to the table –––

I'm sharing a conversation I had with my friend and colleague, Doug O'Brien. Doug is a master storyteller, hypnotherapist, and bestselling author — and like me, he's been fascinated for decades with the ways language and story can change lives. In this episode, we explore:  • How stories shape the way people see themselves and the world  • The simple structure behind every powerful story  • The role stories play in creating lasting change I think you'll find this exploration both practical and thought-provoking — especially if you've ever wondered why a single story can sometimes do what hours of explanation can't. Big love, Jamie P.S. If you'd like to dive deeper into Doug's work, you can explore his User's Guide to Storytelling here: essentialcoachingskills.com/users-guide-to-storytelling

In this short clip, Jamie Smart explores relationships from the perspective of the Three Principles — and why they all come down to three key connections:  • Your relationship with other people  • Your relationship with who you really are  • Your relationship with life itself We look at how the feeling of connection and the fact of connection aren't the same thing… and why understanding this can change the way you relate to others, yourself, and the world. Whether you're a coach, teacher, or someone interested in the Three Principles, this conversation will give you a fresh perspective on relationships and connection.

In this illuminating episode, Matt Edmundson sits down with George Bryant, a renowned e-commerce strategist who has helped scale hundreds of companies to seven, eight, and even nine figures. Beyond the tactics and strategies, this conversation dives deep into what truly drives business sustainability - purpose over profit, authentic relationships, and the personal growth necessary to lead thriving enterprises.I wonder if we've been thinking about business success all wrong? Throughout this conversation, George Bryant challenges conventional wisdom about what drives sustainable growth. It's not the latest marketing tactic or funnel - it's the authentic relationships we build with ourselves, our teams, and our customers.What struck me was George's insight that "you don't have the business you want because you haven't become the person to run it yet." This perspective shift invites us to look inward before looking outward for solutions.Have you considered how your relationship with yourself might be affecting your business decisions? Perhaps the next big breakthrough isn't in a strategy but in creating space for reflection and connection.For more insights on building purpose-driven businesses that stand the test of time, visit our website where you'll find additional resources and ways to connect with both Matt and George.ResourcesGuest & CompanyGeorge's website - https://mindofgeorge.com/George's Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/itsgeorgebryant/Episode-Specific Resources'All In' by Mike Michalowicz - https://allinbymike.com/'The Little Book of Clarity' by Jamie Smart - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Little-Book-Clarity-Jamie-Smart/dp/0857086065eCommerce Podcast EcosystemeCommerce Cohort signup (free monthly calls for eCommerce entrepreneurs) - https://www.ecommerce-podcast.com/cohortMatt's LinkedIn Profile - https://www.linkedin.com/in/mattedmundson/The eCommerce Podcast Newsletter for show notes and extra insights - https://www.ecommerce-podcast.com/subscribe

This week, I want to share with you a short clip from one of our recent sessions, and it's about something I really love exploring: trusting your inner guidance. One of the things I often find is that when people first come across this understanding, they love the idea of wisdom—that quiet voice of guidance. But a common question is, “How do I tell the difference between that and just regular thinking?” In this 5-minute clip, I share what I've seen about that, and why your system is already being guided by wisdom - more than you might realise.

Ever had one of those moments where you just know it's time to act—no overthinking, just a deep click of certainty? Last week, I had a coaching session with Kate, a senior HR director scaling back her corporate role to grow her coaching practice. In just 15 minutes, we witnessed that exact moment of wisdom becoming visible right before our eyes. (Big thanks to Kate for generously allowing us to share her session so others can benefit.) A few breadcrumbs to listen for: The split-second move that turned Kate's empty Thursdays into a full coaching roster How a single felt signal (“Oh—it's now”) trumps months of spreadsheets and planning How genuine peace appears the instant intellectual “noise” steps aside And here's the thing: just by listening in, you might even find yourself on the receiving end of your own breakthroughs around growing your practice—just as Kate did. Big love, Jamie

Have you noticed how a coaching session can turn into a Netflix mini-series in about thirty seconds? Your client starts describing what happened, the cast of characters grows, sub-plots multiply… and before you know it, you're as tangled in the narrative as they are.  When we get lost in the story, it's hard to help them find the way out. In this week's short clip I share the mindset shift that keeps me from being “hypnotised by the content” and lets me hear what's really going on. A few hints of what's inside: - The unexpected move I make before a client even finishes their first sentence. - A “prehistoric” listening lens that slices straight through any story. - Three simple words that open the door to genuine insight. - This quick listen might change the way you hear every conversation. Big love, Jamie

This week for the podcast, I'm sharing something profoundly meaningful to me - an extract from a 2020 workshop on the topic of True Identity featuring two extraordinary mentors and dear friends, Chip and Jan Chipman. At the end of last year, I received the sad news that Chip had passed away. Chip and his wife Jan have been a profound influence in my life and understanding of the principles behind clarity. Their insights into “the beautiful feeling” and “who you really are” continue to shape the way I live, coach, and share this understanding with others. Towards the end of this clip, Chip shares one of my all-time favorite stories—the moment he and Jan realized they were destined to share the principles with the world. It's a story that has sparked deep insights for so many, and I wanted to make it accessible to everyone in our community. In this session, we explore: The profound connection between “the beautiful feeling” and understanding your true identity. How realizing the beauty and innocence within yourself opens the door to seeing it in others. The power of listening deeply and letting life guide you to what's next. And much, much more. The live participants asked some incredibly powerful questions that sparked remarkable insights throughout the session. This episode is an opportunity to reconnect with the wisdom and intelligence within you—and to reflect on what truly matters. I hope this conversation touches you as deeply as it has touched me—and that it inspires new insights into your own journey. Tons of love, Jamie

I've got a short, 4-minute clip that dives into a question I hear all the time: Are non-duality and the Three Principles really different? And what if you love them both? In it, I explore why they're actually pointing to the same truth in different ways, a key distinction that sets the 3 Principles apart, and how you can blend whatever resonates to spark new insights - for yourself, your loved ones, and your clients. If this catches your interest, I think you'll really enjoy this conversation. Tons of love, Jamie ✨ Get your free Inner Stressbuster + a shot of Clarity every Friday. Subscribe now: JamieSmart.com

Earlier this month, I had the privilege of speaking at a Masterclass hosted by my dear friend Simon Paine, co-founder of the Rebel Business School. Simon is a Clarity Coach and a successful entrepreneur in his own right, and it's always a pleasure to speak with his community. One of the highlights of the session was a live coaching demo I did with Evie, who shared her struggles with imposter syndrome and her dream of stepping into her full potential. What unfolded was one of those transformative conversations that cuts through noise and gets to the heart of what really holds us back - and what's possible when we trust the wisdom within. In this week's podcast episode, you'll discover: Why imposter syndrome is nothing more than a case of mistaken identity - and how to see past it. The truth about fear and courage How to uncover the path life is calling you to take (the one your heart already knows), even when your head doubts it. After our session, Evie sent me a heartfelt email about her experience. With her permission, here's what she shared: Hi Jamie ​I just wanted to drop a personal thank you for yesterday's Master Transformational Impact session via Rebel Business School. ​Whilst I found the whole session to be inspirational, the one on one section did exactly as it said on the tin. I've awoken today with a released sense of clarity and purpose. So much of what you spoke about resonated deeply with me, and our conversation cracked open something inside that I've been working on for a number of years.  It felt as though in that held space I finally felt my heart take over from the negativity in my brain. It was powerful. ​So, thank you again. I am truly grateful for our conversation yesterday. ​Warmest wishes ​Evie Jones This episode is a chance to reconnect with your own inner wisdom and say yes to what life is calling you to create.

Hi. I'm Jamie Smart. Welcome to the podcast. As you may know, I've long been fascinated with exponential technology and its impact on us and our world. With that in mind, I've decided that in this season of the 'Get Clarity' podcast, I'm going to be having conversations with people who can share insights to help us navigate this rapidly changing landscape from a psychological and spiritual perspective.   My first guest is Jeff Booth, a friend whose work I've been exploring for several years. Jeff is a bestselling author, tech entrepreneur and a very deep thinker. He's one of the founding partners of "Ego Death Capital", a fund for investing in technology startups, and Jeff coaches and mentors the tech entrepreneurs and teams the fund invests in.    And here's the thing that had me realise he'll be a great guest for the podcast.   I was reading his superb book, "The Price of Tomorrow", and many of the things he said let me know that Jeff understands something worth knowing about who we really are. Then, as I listened to some of his interviews, I realised he has a very practical understanding of "how life works" that I'd love to explore more deeply with him, and to share with you.    One thing: I had to listen to Jeff share his perspective a number of times before I really *got* what he's pointing to, so this may be one you want to come back to again and again. Just before we get to that, I wanted to mention that the doors are now open for the January 2025 intake of our flagship Clarity Certification Training programme. Just go to www.JamieSmart.com/coach    So now to the episode.

Hi. I'm Jamie Smart. Welcome to the podcast. This episode is a coaching demo I did with Clarity Coach Jan Harte around weight loss and limiting beliefs. The demo itself took place during my Clarity Advanced Coach & Facilitator Programme, and only lasted 20 minutes, but it's followed by a 4-minute follow-up I did with Jan a year later (just a few weeks ago). As you'll hear, the impact of the coaching session was profoundly transformational. Just before we get to that, I wanted to mention that on Friday May 10th, I'm getting together with a group of coaches to look at the fundamentals of belief-change, so you can increase your impact-confidence, dissolve limiting beliefs & transform lives (including your own). Here's what we're going to be exploring together:   You're going to learn the fundamentals of working with limiting beliefs, so you're standing on solid ground as you discern what's really going on for your client. As a result, you'll be able to increase your impact-confidence and make a bigger difference (it's a lot easier to help someone when you understand the landscape.) As a lovely side-effect, you'll start seeing through your *own* limiting beliefs so you can create the results that truly matter to you as well as your clients. You're going to be getting a felt sense of the nature of true identity (this is crucial, because this is one of the main ‘leverage points' you have to share with your clients). You'll also be learning the linguistic and sensory structure of limiting beliefs (language is a doorway into your client's world, so I'll be showing you specific questions you can ask to uncover what's been holding them back until now).  You'll be learning about the paradoxical nature of double-binds, and why most coaches innocently end up reinforcing the bind, rather than dissolving it (true story!)  You'll learn how to point people to their true identity and their innate capacity for realisation, the keystone for truly transformational impact. People regularly cry tears of relief when you help them see through their perceived limitations, and wake up to the truth of who they really are.   While this one-day workshop will be suitable for coaches and therapists of all skill and experience-levels, it's going to be of particular interest to experienced coaches who are looking to take their impact to a new level.   There will be several belief-change demonstrations, and everyone will have the opportunity to shift their own most pernicious beliefs. As I mentioned, it's on Friday May 10th via Zoom, and there's an earlybird price when you book your place by this Thursday May 2nd. Just go to www.JamieSmart.com/belief to learn more and register now. That's www.JamieSmart.com/belief    So now to the coaching demo and one-year followup..

You'll also be learning the linguistic and sensory structure of limiting beliefs (language is a doorway into your client's world, so I'll be showing you specific questions you can ask to uncover what's been holding them back until now).  You'll be learning about the paradoxical nature of double-binds, and why most coaches innocently end up reinforcing the bind, rather than dissolving it (true story!)  You'll learn how to point people to their true identity and their innate capacity for realisation, the keystone for truly transformational impact. People regularly cry tears of relief when you help them see through their perceived limitations, and wake up to the truth of who they really are.   While this one-day workshop will be suitable for coaches and therapists of all skill and experience-levels, it's going to be of particular interest to experienced coaches who are looking to take their impact to a new level.   There will be several belief-change demonstrations, and everyone will have the opportunity to shift their own most pernicious beliefs. As I mentioned, it's on Friday May 10th via Zoom, and there's an earlybird price when you book your place by this Thursday May 2nd. Just go to www.JamieSmart.com/belief to learn more and register now. That's www.JamieSmart.com/belief    So now to the coaching demo and one-year followup..
