Podcasts about key insights

In this powerful coaching session, Christine works with Kevin, a husband of 21 years, as he explores the delicate balance between healthy relational needs and unresolved childhood wounds. Kevin opens up about longing for deeper intimacy and appreciation from his wife—and wondering if those desires are truly valid or rooted in his past. Together, they unpack how unmet childhood needs often show up in our adult relationships, especially when we expect a partner to fulfill what our parents couldn't. Christine helps Kevin distinguish between the “little boy” who seeks attention and the “grown man” who can communicate clearly, take leadership, and set his partner up for success. If you've ever felt unseen, under appreciated, or rejected by someone you love—or if you've wondered why the same emotional patterns keep showing up in your relationships—this episode offers a roadmap for transforming frustration into empowerment and deeper connection.   Consider/Ask Yourself Are there needs in your relationship that go unmet, leaving you resentful or withdrawn? Do you ever feel like your partner “should just know” what you need? Have you confused childhood wounding with adult desire? How might your relationship change if you led with grounded communication instead of expectation?   Key Insights and A-HAs Many relational frustrations stem from projecting unhealed childhood wounds onto our partners. Expressing needs from a grounded, adult self invites intimacy—while expressing them from a wounded inner child often repels it. True leadership in love means clearly communicating needs and guiding your partner on how to meet them. Resentment and unspoken expectations block intimacy more than unmet needs themselves. Relationships thrive when both partners take 100% responsibility for their own healing and communication.   How to Deepen the Work Before expressing a need, pause to ask: “Is this coming from my adult self or my inner child?” Practice the phrase: “If you really knew me, you'd know I'd love to hear…” to communicate appreciation requests gently. Create “safe yes” conversations—where each partner can express needs without fear of rejection. Consider setting aside scheduled connection time to nurture intimacy intentionally. Reflect on how your family patterns might still shape how you relate to love, desire, and worthiness.   Upcoming Event Couples Retreat with Christine & Steph Join Christine and Steph for a small, intimate couples retreat in San Diego, designed to deepen communication, heal emotional patterns, and restore passion and partnership.

On this episode of Destination on the Left, I'm taking you behind the scenes of my own year-end planning process. As we look ahead to 2026, I'll walk you through how I reflect on the past year, celebrating what worked, identifying lessons learned, and checking in on both team and personal well-being. I share everything from my practical planning frameworks and financial benchmarks to trend forecasting and tips for creating a collaborative culture. What You Will Learn in This Episode: Why intentional reflection and bold, future-oriented questions are essential for setting effective priorities and ensuring organizational growth What emerging trends mean for travel, tourism, and hospitality planning in 2026 How I use practical financial benchmarks and department-level planning to ensure the organization is ready for upcoming challenges and opportunities Why operationalizing collaboration by setting clear roles, goals, budgets, and documented processes moves it from a “nice to have” to a real strategic advantage What steps you can take to engage your whole team in the visioning and planning process to create greater buy-in and drive results How you can use my 2026 planning checklist and reflection questions to set your organization up for long-term success Begin with Genuine Reflection Before plotting the future, it's crucial to anchor your plans in a clear-eyed assessment of the present and recent past. It's so important to reflect on accomplishments, goal progress, team health, and personal leadership. I ask myself and my team a few probing questions: What did we accomplish this year? Where did we fall short and why? Are our people thriving, or stretched thin? How is my own mental wellbeing impacting my leadership? These multi-level reflections ground the planning process in reality and provide the learning needed to improve both professionally and personally. Regularly scheduled interviews—such as “stay interviews” with staff—help surface the reasons your team members stay and opportunities for positive change. Industry Trends and Future Readiness How well are you anticipating and responding to the shifts in your sector? It's critical to keep abreast of evolving trends—such as the rise of sustainability and regenerative tourism, persistent workforce challenges, and technological advancements like AI and digital personalization. Simultaneously, there's a noticeable trend toward travelers seeking meaningful, off-the-beaten-path experiences, as well as a movement to “unplug” and seek present-moment enjoyment. Empowering Your Team Planning isn't a solo exercise. At TAP we use a bottom-up approach: each department creates and presents their strategic plans, which are then built into broader company goals. Our annual team retreats blend strategic planning, culture-building, and a lot of fun ensuring everyone plays a role in shaping the future. We foster a sense of ownership among team members at all levels, after all, when everyone is involved, energy and commitment to the plan dramatically increase. I want to leave you with this challenge: What role will collaboration play in your 2026 plan, and how will you operationalize it to drive real results—not just good intentions?

In this episode, Christine coaches Jessica, a multi-passionate entrepreneur who struggles to follow through on her vision. Jessica shares how she often throws herself into new ideas with enthusiasm, only to lose momentum when life shifts or self-doubt creeps in. Although she feels deeply called to help mothers raising children in challenging family systems, she wrestles with limiting beliefs about whether people actually want what she offers. Christine helps Jessica reframe her so-called “career ADHD” as a strength—multi-passionate creativity—and uncovers the deeper fears that keep her from committing fully to her dream. They discuss the power of belief, why consistency matters more than perfection, and how to align her entrepreneurial mindset with truth, love, and service. If you've ever second-guessed your calling, started projects you didn't finish, or doubted whether your work really matters, this coaching session will inspire you to release self-sabotage and step forward with clarity and confidence.   Consider/Ask Yourself Do you start projects with excitement but struggle to finish them? Have you labeled yourself as “scattered” or “inconsistent” instead of seeing your creativity as a gift? Are you holding back from your dream because you fear people won't want what you have to offer? How might changing your beliefs about yourself and your audience shift the results you see?   Key Insights and A-HAs Being multi-passionate isn't a problem—it's part of the entrepreneurial spirit. Our beliefs shape our outcomes: if we believe there's no audience, our energy reflects that. Consistency in creating and sharing builds trust, especially with sensitive topics like parenting and family. Fear of failure often shows up as “not finishing,” but true growth comes from committing fully. Relief, not resistance, signals alignment with truth.   How to Deepen the Work Identify one limiting belief that's draining your momentum. Write down evidence that challenges it. Clarify who your “ideal client” is and create content as if you're speaking directly to them. Reframe social media or marketing as opportunities to build trust rather than chores. Normalize the ups and downs of entrepreneurship—it's part of the journey, not proof you're failing.   Upcoming Event Christine's Women's Retreat A transformational retreat designed to help you release old patterns, reclaim your truth, and radiate love into your life and the world.

In this special episode of the Arete Coach Podcast, host Severin Sorensen—executive coach, bestselling author of The AI Whisperer series, and curator of the Arete Coach Podcast—presents a solo discussion on the accelerating rise of artificial intelligence and its implications for leaders, workers, and society at large. Recorded on September 28, 2025, via Zoom, the episode titled “Reimagining and Bridge Building” explores the frameworks behind Sorensen's two newest books: The Great Reimagining and Building Tomorrow. With decades of leadership coaching experience and a reputation as a forward-thinking strategist, Severin Sorensen brings deep perspective and actionable vision to this pivotal moment in history through two new books: The Great Reimagining: A blueprint for navigating AI-driven disruption through balanced taxation of AI profits, Workfare 2.0 income supports, sovereign AI investment funds, and “The Solomon Solution”—a surplus-sharing framework designed to prevent the polarization of “makers vs. takers.”Building Tomorrow: A guide for youth, parents, and educators that frames 30 enduring “hard problems” in areas such as water scarcity, cybersecurity, quantum computing, and environmental stewardship. Written for STEAM-oriented learners, the book encourages the next generation to become problem-solvers in an AI-augmented future.Thought leadership: Sorensen has recently published academic work on agentic AI, led large-scale workshops with executives and Vistage Chairs, and integrated the latest generative AI applications into business strategy and executive coaching practices. Key Insights for Executive-Level Coaches AI acceleration and agency: 2025 has seen the dawn of agentic AI—models capable of recursive self-improvement and behaviors that mimic consciousness, raising new opportunities and responsibilities for leaders.Bridging disruption with design: The “bridge model” reframes AI disruption not as inevitable collapse, but as a design challenge requiring intentional policy, economic, and community-building responses.Work with purpose: Sorensen stresses that while paychecks matter, meaning, identity, and community remain paramount. Coaches must help clients navigate grief, displacement, and reinvention with dignity.No one crosses alone: Communities of reinvention—peer circles, guilds, and city hubs—are vital in turning disruption into belonging and shared growth.The builder's mindset: The future is not something that happens to us but something we co-create. Leaders, policymakers, and coaches must “grab a plank” and build the bridge toward flourishing. The Arete Coach Podcast continues to explore the art and science of executive coaching at the highest levels. You can find more about this podcast at aretecoach.io.

What does success really mean in recovery? In this powerful solo episode, Lindsey gets real about perfectionism, the fear of success vs. fear of failure, and why trying to be an "A-student" at recovery keeps you stuck. If you've ever felt like you're not trying hard enough, not far enough along, or wondered what life would look like if you actually succeeded at recovery - this episode is for you. Discover why traditional definitions of success are keeping you trapped and learn a new perspective that will transform how you approach your recovery journey. Key Topics Covered: ⚡ The perfectionist's dilemma: Why wanting recovery to be flawless keeps you stuck ⚡ Two types of fear: Fear of failure vs. fear of success in recovery ⚡ Redefining success: From what you accomplish to who you become ⚡ The pressure of "A-student recovery": Why this mindset leads to relapse ⚡ Surrender and empowerment: Research on how letting go creates better outcomes ⚡ Daily choices over gold medals: Success when no one is watching The Two Fears That Keep You Stuck: Fear of Failure "What if I don't recover?" "What if this is just who I am?" Staying in denial feels safer because you can't fail if you stay stuck Believing you'll never be successful at recovery, so why try? Fear of Success "What if I do recover? Then what?" "What would it mean for my life if I quit playing small?" "What would it mean if I fully surrendered knowing it didn't need to be perfect?" Fear of the unknown person you'll become without your eating disorder Redefining Success: Traditional (False) Definition: Professional achievements and career advancement Material worth and financial status Luxurious lifestyle and social media image Social status, influence, and popularity Body image and physical appearance True Definition of Success: Success = Who you become in the process, not what you accomplish Success equals: Growth of character Developing skills and wisdom Growing in faith Constant growth leading to happiness and contentment Becoming your best self Powerful Questions for Self-Reflection:

The Good News Non-Negotiables | Spirit, Power & The Church Purity. Boldness. Perspective. In this message from Acts 5, we unpack what it looks like to live a life that points to Jesus—even when it's difficult. The gospel is worth living for, worth speaking about, and worth standing on. Key Insights: 1. Evangelism begins with personal purity. If your life doesn't align with your message, your witness loses credibility. 2. Living boldly for Jesus often invites resistance—but it also inspires others. 3. The gospel spreads when the church walks in unity, generosity, and Spirit-led obedience. 4. Relentless persistence in faith is how spiritual impact is made, even when you face opposition. 5. Kingdom perspective keeps you grounded when standing for truth feels costly.

Evil Doesn't Knock—It Shatters. Are Your Kids Ready to Stand? Evil doesn’t knock politely—it barrels into our lives, demanding a response. In an era marked by darkness and division, how do we prepare the next generation to stand firm in their faith rather than buckle under pressure? Truth is Targeted In this powerful and timely episode, Catherine tackles one of the toughest challenges facing Christian families today: equipping kids—and ourselves—with the courage and conviction to remain steadfast when evil seems to prevail. The tragic and shocking assassination of Charlie Kirk—celebrated Christian leader, founder of Turning Point USA, and unapologetic voice for truth—becomes both the backdrop and the catalyst for a discussion every Christian parent must hear. Catherine draws from deeply personal reflections and public reactions to Charlie Kirk’s legacy, highlighting the slander, misunderstandings, and outright hostility he faced even as he modeled a rare blend of conviction and compassion. Through clips of Charlie responding to vulnerable students—including those struggling with gender dysphoria or rejected by their own communities—listeners experience firsthand his unwavering grace and commitment to loving those who disagreed with him. “You don’t get assassinated for telling lies. You get assassinated for telling the truth, and people start listening.” Key Insights & Takeaways

In this tender and powerful coaching session, Christine works with SJ—a single mother who has done tremendous inner work but still wonders if something is blocking her from partnership. Together, they explore the difference between apathy and protection, generational patterns, and the fear of letting someone see you at your most vulnerable. As SJ opens up about her history, caregiving responsibilities, and longing for connection, Christine reflects back the progress she's already made and challenges the belief that there's “a problem” to be solved. Instead, this conversation shows how surrender, self-love, and reframing our stories can transform what we see as liabilities into pathways for deeper intimacy. If you've ever felt “stuck,” compared your progress to others, or believed that your life circumstances made you unlovable, this episode will help you soften those fears and recognize the growth already alive within you.   Consider/Ask Yourself Do you sometimes confuse surrender with apathy? Have you felt so self-sufficient that there's little room for anyone else? Do you carry the fear that your challenges or past make you undesirable in relationships? How might it feel to let someone witness you in your weakest moments and discover that you are still worthy of love?   Key Insights and A-HAs Not every challenge is a “problem” to be solved—sometimes there's no problem at all. What looks like apathy may actually be self-protection. True partnership is about interdependence, not codependence. Intimacy often deepens when we let others see us in our hardest moments. Shifting your inner language and beliefs can change how others experience your life story.   Upcoming Event Christine's Women's Retreat Join Christine for a life-changing experience where you'll release old patterns, reconnect with your truth, and step into the next level of your life.

Guest: Dr. Mayra Austin, Founder & CEO of Management CuesTopic: The Strategic Value of Workplace CultureIn today's episode, we explore Perspective #3: Culture—and debunk the myth that workplace culture is just a “feel-good” concept. In truth, it's a mission-critical asset that directly affects your bottom line, operations, and long-term growth.

In this candid coaching session, Christine works with Andi, a coach who left a stable engineering career to pursue her true calling—but is now questioning whether to keep going or retreat back to what feels “safe.” After years of effort without financial stability, Andi wonders if she's chasing a pipe dream. Christine helps her uncover the deeper dynamics at play: how childhood conditioning, generational fear, and the belief that success must follow a formula are holding her back. Together, they explore what it means to believe in your dreams even when external results lag, and how coaching isn't just about marketing or money—it's about embodying truth and evolving consciousness. If you've ever doubted your path, felt torn between passion and practicality, or questioned whether your dreams are valid, this conversation will give you clarity, relief, and a renewed sense of purpose. Consider / Ask Yourself: Have you ever wondered if your dreams are too unrealistic—or if the “safe” path is actually safer? Did childhood experiences or parental voices shape your beliefs about success? Are you harder on yourself than you are on others you support? Do you feel like you have “one foot on the gas and one foot on the brake” when it comes to pursuing your passion?   Key Insights and A-HAs: Coaching (and many soul-led vocations) is a spiritual journey, not just a business model. Our worth is not defined by clients' results or financial benchmarks. Childhood wounds and inherited fears can sabotage dreams if left unhealed. Success requires both service and the willingness to receive energetic exchange. Believing in yourself and embodying your truth creates alignment that attracts opportunities.   How to Deepen the Work: Identify whose voice you hear in your doubts—is it truly yours? Reflect on childhood dreams that were squashed and consider how they want to express now. Reframe support not as “fixing” but as resourcing yourself for the journey. Notice where you're trying to make your path formulaic (A + B = C) and invite curiosity instead. Ask: “What do I know to be true about myself?” and breathe into that truth daily.   Upcoming Event: Christine's Women's Retreat takes place October 17–19, 2025. This transformational weekend helps women release old programming, reconnect with their true desires, and step boldly into the life they're meant to live. Partial scholarships are now available, and generous listeners can sponsor another woman's attendance.

Krystal and Dedric Polite are real estate investors and stars of A&E's 50/50 Flip, where they transform rundown properties while building generational wealth. Based in North Carolina, the couple launched their real estate journey with a single Airbnb and have since flipped over 100 properties. Their success blends Krystal's expertise in systems and marketing with Dedric's skills in acquisitions and finance. Starting with wholesaling and using tools like DealMachine, they identified off-market deals and turned early setbacks into profitable lessons. Today, they run multiple businesses and a nonprofit, focusing on sustainable growth and educating aspiring investors through seminars and media appearances. Outside of business, the Polites are raising two young boys and remain passionate about inspiring others to achieve financial freedom through real estate. Their mission: build wealth, uplift their community, and show others what's possible—one property at a time. During the show we discussed: Importance of mindset in real estate wholesaling License or experience needed to start wholesaling Common mistakes on a first deal Choosing the right market as a beginner Top three marketing methods to master Building a motivated seller list on a budget Knowing if a property is a good deal and what to offer Assignment contract vs. purchase agreement Resources: https://politewealthportal.com/ https://dedricandkrystal.com/

In this comprehensive discussion led by Dawn Rickabaugh, a seasoned seller finance expert and owner of NoteQueen.com, the multifaceted benefits and strategies of using owner financing in real estate transactions are explored in depth. Dawn emphasizes the critical interplay between "property and paper," referring to the tangible real estate asset and the financial instruments (notes) that represent debt secured by that property. The conversation covers practical insights for buyers, sellers, and real estate professionals on how seller financing can serve as a powerful alternative or complement to traditional bank financing, especially in challenging market conditions where conventional loans may be difficult to obtain. Dawn highlights the growing importance of owner financing amid tightening credit markets, rising interest rates, and shifting real estate dynamics in various U.S. regions and Canada. She explains how owner financing not only opens doors for buyers with substantial down payments but limited access to bank loans, but also creates unique opportunities for sellers to maximize their property's value by offering flexible, attractive financing terms. The discussion dives into the strategic advantages of owning and buying notes, including the ability to buy back one's own mortgage at a discount, negotiate terms directly with note holders, and benefit from the personal relationship between buyer and seller—advantages not available with traditional bank loans. Real-life examples and participant insights enrich the discussion, illustrating how owner financing can enable cash flow, tax benefits, and enhanced deal flexibility. The session also addresses common misconceptions, the importance of legal protections such as first rights of refusal and transferability clauses, and innovative approaches like rent-to-own conversions and master leases. The conversation culminates in practical advice for real estate agents to leverage these tools to rescue commissions and become indispensable dealmakers in a market where creative financing solutions are increasingly vital. Dawn announces forthcoming educational courses aimed at empowering buyers and investors to confidently use owner financing and notes as wealth-building vehicles. Overall, the session serves as both a primer and an advanced exploration of seller financing's potential to transform real estate investing and homeownership. ### Highlights   - [00:00:05]

Breaking Free from Hidden Patterns and Rewiring Your Brain for Success   Rewire Your Brain: Adele Spraggon on Breaking Free from Hidden Patterns   Like many of you, I've seen firsthand how money stories and old habits can run our lives without us even realizing it. I work with business owners every day who want more profit, more freedom, but they're trapped in repeating cycles—just like I've been in my own journey.   Our guest today, Adele Spraggon, is an award-winning author, international speaker, and behavioral change expert. In her book Shift: 4 Steps to Personal Empowerment, Adele reveals how the brain runs on hidden patterns that keep us stuck—and more importantly, how to rewire them for freedom and success.   This isn't about willpower or positive thinking. It's about giving your brain the tools to let go of what no longer serves you, and allowing new patterns to emerge that fit the life you actually want.   5 Key Insights from Adele Spraggon: We Live by Patterns, Not Choices. Most of what we call “decisions” are actually neural pathways our brain built in the past. We're on autopilot more than we realize. Reflection: Which area of your life feels stuck on repeat Change Happens by Subtraction, Not Addition. Instead of piling on more strategies, affirmations, or tools, Adele teaches that true freedom comes by removing unhelpful patterns. Reflection: What would shift if you stopped adding solutions and simply let go of the root problem? The Body Holds the Truth. While the mind replays the past and projects the future, the body is always in the present. By tuning into sensations and emotions, we discover the real issues beneath the surface. Reflection: What is your body telling you about the problems you keep circling? Surrender is Not Weakness. Letting go isn't giving up—it's becoming a witness to what's actually happening inside. From that space, old patterns naturally dissolve. Reflection: Where in your life are you resisting instead of surrendering? Identity is Fluid, Not Fixed. We're not one static self. We're shape-shifters, capable of adopting new identities as we rewire our brains. Change is easier than we think—once we know how. Reflection: Who could you become if you stopped clinging to outdated labels?   Money Learnings: Adele grew up in a home where money was either abundant or scarce, with nothing in between. That volatility shaped her early patterns around spending and saving—habits that drained her account as quickly as money came in. Her story is a reminder: your financial results often mirror the unconscious money patterns you inherited. Until you rewire them, the cycle continues.   Key Takeaway: True empowerment doesn't come from forcing yourself to be different. It comes from recognizing the brain patterns that no longer serve you and giving yourself permission to let them go.   About Adele Spraggon: Adele Spraggon is an award-winning author, international speaker, and trainer recognized for her expertise in behavioral change. She has been awarded the 2020 Woman of Inspiration Award and is the author of Shift: 4 Steps to Personal Empowerment. With a master's degree in humanities, a lifetime of teaching, and a deep study of neuroscience and psychology, Adele helps people across the globe break free from hidden mental patterns and step into lives of freedom, peace, and purpose. Through her work, Adele has empowered thousands to rewrite their inner programming, overcome self-sabotage, and unlock the adaptability that makes change not only possible, but natural.   Links: Website: https://adelespraggon.com/   LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/adelespraggon/   Twitter/X: https://x.com/AdeleSpraggon   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AdeleSpraggonRepatternist/   Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/adelespraggon   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AdeleSpraggon   What's one pattern you're ready to let go of today—and who might you become once you do?   #RicherSoul #AdeleSpraggon #BrainPatterns #MindsetShift #PersonalGrowth #InnerWork #Neuroplasticity #SelfImprovement #ChangeYourLife #Habits #RewireYourBrain #Empowerment #ConsciousLiving    Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@richersoul Richer Soul Life Beyond Money.

In this powerful episode, Amb. Elisha takes us deep into the reality of spiritual warfare and why understanding the influence of demons is crucial for every believer.   Too many people live in ignorance about the unseen battles shaping our world, but Amb. Elisha boldly reminds us that we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against spiritual forces (Ephesians 6:12).   From the Garden of Eden to the ministry of Jesus, the Bible shows us that demons influence governments, societies, and even individuals.   Amb. Elisha explains how these unseen forces push humanity into confusion, immorality, corruption, and destruction—yet Jesus came to set the captives free.

In this inspiring session, Christine coaches Wendy, who has felt stuck and frozen by fear—especially when it comes to making decisions in her relationships and career. Wendy shares her history of physical challenges, overprotective parenting, and bullying, which shaped her belief that fear and love always go hand in hand. Christine helps her see that fear doesn't have to be a problem. Together, they explore how to release the “something is wrong with me” belief, reframe fear as an old protective pattern, and step into a new chapter defined by intention rather than paralysis. If you've ever waited to feel confident or fear-free before making a move in your life, this conversation will remind you that you can take steps even with fear present—and that your past doesn't have to dictate your future. Consider / Ask Yourself: Are you waiting for fear to disappear before pursuing something you truly want? Do old childhood experiences still shape how you see yourself and your choices? Have you confused “being seen” with “being judged”? What new story could you tell yourself that would free you from the past? Key Insights and A-HAs: Fear doesn't have to be solved before you act—it can come along for the ride. Overprotective parenting can imprint fear that isn't actually yours. Confidence comes from self-trust and knowing you can handle challenges, not from waiting for certainty. Reframing fear as familiar, but not controlling, creates freedom. Being honest about your story invites connection, not rejection. How to Deepen the Work: Instead of waiting for confidence, act with intention. Talk to your younger self and reassure them they are safe now. Notice when you are seeing yourself through the old lens of “something is wrong with me.” Try body-based practices that build trust and safety within yourself. Practice honesty in small ways and notice how people respond with compassion. Upcoming Event: Christine's Women's Retreat happens October 17–19, 2025. This intimate and transformational gathering is a chance to release fear, reprogram old patterns, and step fully into the truth of who you are. Partial scholarships are now available, and generous listeners can even sponsor another woman's attendance. Learn more and reserve your spot at christinehassler.com/retreat.

The conversation around AI and writing is heating up. But too often, it's framed as a false choice: AI is either “bad” and deceptive, or it's the ultimate shortcut to productivity. In this solo episode, I challenge that binary thinking and unpack the real issues at stake for freelance writers. Sparked by a provocative LinkedIn post from Mariya Delano, CEO of Kalyna Marketing, this discussion dives into the myths and misconceptions that keep us stuck in unproductive debates. I lay out 10 false assumptions fueling the AI writing controversy. And I explain why the future belongs to freelancers who can master what I call “creative synthesis,” which is the ability to skillfully combine human judgment, lived experience, taste, and AI capabilities into something far greater than either could achieve alone. If you've been wondering how to navigate the AI conversation with clients — or how to position yourself to thrive in an AI-enhanced world — this episode will give you the clarity and confidence you need. What You'll Learn Why binary debates about AI (“good” vs. “bad”) miss the bigger picture The 10 false assumptions about AI that are holding writers back How to reframe AI as a tool for amplification (not deception!) The concept of Creative Synthesis and why it's the skill that will set you apart The four phases of Creative Synthesis mastery and how to progress through them Key Insights and Takeaways AI doesn't equal deception: Like Grammarly or Google, it's a tool. What matters is how you use it and whether you're transparent. Not all AI is the same: There's a vast spectrum of use cases, from research to brainstorming to drafting, and lumping them all together is misleading. Clients care about results, not process: What builds trust is consistent, high-value outcomes. It's not about whether AI played a role behind the scenes. Creative Synthesis is the future: The winning freelancers will be those who can blend AI capabilities with strategic insight, emotional intelligence, and client understanding. Action Steps You Can Take This Week Audit your AI beliefs: Which of the 10 assumptions have you unconsciously bought into? Experiment intentionally: Spend 30 minutes testing a new AI workflow for creativity and strategy, not just for efficiency. Develop your AI policy: Be ready to discuss openly with clients how (if at all) you use AI in your process. Shift your mindset: Stop asking “AI vs. no AI?” and start asking, “How can I combine AI with my skills to deliver extraordinary value?” Memorable Soundbites “The debate isn't AI good or AI bad. The real question is: how will you use it to create something that only you can?” “Using AI doesn't make you less original. What makes your work original is the judgment, taste, and perspective only you bring.” “The freelancers who thrive won't be the ones avoiding AI or blindly copy-pasting it. To thrive in the years ahead you'll need to master Creative Synthesis.” Listener Challenge This week, pick one client project (current or past) and ask yourself: Where could AI have enhanced my process—not replaced me, but amplified my creativity, speed, or strategic value? Then take one small step to test that approach in your next project. If this episode resonated, share it with a fellow freelancer navigating the AI conversation. And don't forget to subscribe so you never miss an episode packed with insights to help you earn more in less time... doing work you love, for better clients.

Welcome to a heartfelt and transformative episode of Compared to Who?! Today, Heather Creekmore gets real, sharing a sincere apology and a powerful re-focus for the community. If you’ve been on a journey of body image struggles or striving for personal freedom, this episode will meet you right where you are. Episode Summary:Heather shares how she’s been convicted about how she’s focused on the roots of body image issues over the past few seasons, particularly focusing too much on intellectual understanding and analysis. Using the wisdom of Proverbs 3:5-6 — “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding…” — Heather shares how she’s issuing a fresh call to the freedom that doesn’t come from unraveling the origins of our issues, but from surrendering to Christ, being discipled, and letting Jesus heal and transform every part of us. Key Insights from This Episode: The Power of Surrender: Understanding why we struggle with body image isn’t the path to freedom; surrendering to Christ is. Shift from Self-Help to Discipleship: Heather unpacks the biblical idea of discipleship — growing to be more like Jesus — as the most effective way to address body image battles and find lasting satisfaction. Freedom Beyond Understanding: Instead of searching for intellectual solutions or falling into endless self-analysis, this episode encourages letting God into the healing process and allowing your heart (not just your head) to be transformed. Counter to Cultural Messages: Heather warns against both secular and “Christian” body positivity messages that focus on self-pride and fixing your exterior, reminding us that Scripture leads us to humility and dependence on Christ. Living with Satisfaction: Drawing from Matthew 5:6 and Philippians 3-4, she explores the true path to satisfaction in life and body image, which is found only in hungering and thirsting for righteousness through a relationship with Jesus.

The Church Once Shaped the World Through Beauty—Can We Help Restore Its Influence Again? For centuries, the Christian faith was the driving force behind breathtaking art, transcendent music, and the very fabric of Western culture. But somewhere along the way, the church lost its influence—and with it, our society became less attuned to the transcendent power of beauty to point hearts to God. How did we get here, and most importantly, how can parents reclaim beauty as a powerful tool for reaching a generation that’s grown deaf to lectures and argument? In this compelling episode, Catherine is joined by multi-talented artist, philosopher, and theologian Isaac Gay—an accomplished musician, singer, songwriter, actor, dancer, and founder of The Parallel Society, a ministry devoted to discipling artists and restoring creativity in the church. Isaac and his wife Emily have spent nearly two decades planting churches, building prayer rooms, and nurturing creative communities in some of the most secular cities in the West—while also raising three boys of their own. Key Insights & Takeaways: Beauty as a Lost Apologetic: Discover why beauty is the most overlooked, and perhaps most powerful, way for Christians to influence culture today. “Beauty just might be our most powerful apologetic,” Catherine declares, underscoring its unique role in capturing hearts in a post-truth society. The Biblical Foundation of Creativity: Learn how the very first thing Scripture tells us about God isn’t that He’s a king, or father—but that He is a Creator, bringing order out of chaos. And why that means that every parent, regardless of natural talent, is called to be creative too. History’s Lessons: Journey from the Renaissance and beyond to see how the church used to set the standard for art, music, and culture. Why did Christians abdicate that position of influence, and how did utilitarian thinking, fundamentalism, and a sacred/secular divide contribute to exile of the arts? The Plight—and Calling—of Christian Artists: Hear Isaac’s own story of exchanging Broadway dreams for full-time ministry, and the tension so many creative Christians face when their gifts seem at odds with church expectations. “You are joining God, the ultimate creator, in the act of the most beautiful piece of art and creativity that has ever been created,” Isaac encourages all parents. Why Lectures Don’t Reach Culture (But Stories Do): The world isn’t tuning into our sermons—they’re going to movies, reading novels, and being shaped by art. Find out why reclaiming creativity in the church isn’t optional, but essential if we want to influence the next generation. Notable Moments: The astonishing significance of the first person in Scripture filled with the Holy Spirit (hint: he was an artist, not a preacher!) Stories from church history, the Renaissance, and the power of artists as “missionaries” to culture. A moving discussion on how even parenting itself is an act of creativity, forming order and beauty from chaos. The church hasn’t just neglected the arts—it’s handed the cultural keys to the world, often settling for copying what’s popular instead of shaping what’s meaningful. What could happen if Christian parents and churches reclaimed beauty—not just in our sanctuaries, but in our homes, our parenting, and our calling? Listen in and consider:How are you nurturing the creative spark God gave your children? In what ways could reclaiming beauty and imagination in your home, church, or community become the bridge to the gospel your world desperately needs? Don’t miss Part 2—where Isaac will be joined by his wife Emily for an even deeper dive into the practical steps of nurturing Christian creativity and restoring the church as a wellspring of beauty and culture. About the Guest: Isaac Gay is a modern-day renaissance man with a background in theatre, music, and ministry. As the founder of The Parallel Society, he equips Christian artists to use their gifts for cultural renewal and gospel advance. His work with his wife Emily has built creative communities and fostered discipleship of artists across the U.S. Episode Resources: Isaac’s Website & Instagram The Parallel Society The Prodigal by Isaac Gay For resources, free guides for parents, and more on nurturing creativity in your kids, visit catherine@catherinesegars.com.

In this inspiring conversation with Corey Busch, we explore how Internal Family Systems (IFS) opens the door to deeper spiritual connection and relational healing. Together, we reflect on the gift of seeing our inner multiplicity and how this awareness naturally connects us to our family, our community, and even to the spiritual universe. Corey shares how meaningful Christian centering prayer was for him. This contemplative practice of silently resting in a sacred word became a lifeline for Corey during when he was struggling with physical pain and traditional mindfulness was not fully working. Through centering prayer, Corey discovered that he could “come home to Self” without asking parts to step aside. There was an abiding and always present love that Corey found within himself. Rather than going through all the formal steps of IFS, Corey found a way to simply relax, unblend, and return to the OK-ness of Self. This was not something that he used to replace IFS (he still loves this model) but rather, it was something to augment IFS. This shift revealed another way to unblend from parts. Rather than asking to see if they would relax back, or even witnessing them, Corey was able to just spend time appreciating the divine presence and unconditional love all around him. This is part one. Part two is a conversation with Corey about his “IFS Love Practice” which outlines his gentle and effortless way to reconnect with Self.   Key Insights in this Episode: Multiplicity opens us to interconnectedness. Centering prayer as a doorway to Self. Self as abiding love, always here, beneath parts' striving. Effortless IFS: resting in Self without an agenda. Spontaneous healing through simple awareness.   #InternalFamilySystems #IFS #SelfLeadership #CenteringPrayer #ChristianMysticism #SpiritualHealing #PartsWork #TraumaHealing #AbidingLove #ContemplativePractice #Mindfulness #SpiritualityAndTherapy #IFSCommunity #HealingJourney #SelfEnergy #CompassionateHealing #Wholeness #EffortlessIFS #EmotionalHealing #PodcastForHealing

In this heartfelt coaching session, Christine supports Elle, who has done years of personal growth work but still struggles with feeling disconnected—especially in intimate relationships. Despite building a chosen family and strong friendships, Elle worries she may never find a romantic partner she feels both safe and attracted to. Past experiences of abuse and neglect have created protective strategies that now interfere with intimacy and connection. Christine helps Elle see that she is further along than she realizes, guiding her to release self-judgment and reframe her experiences. They explore how protective parts, body-based healing, and inviting the inner child into present-day moments can restore connection. If you've ever felt broken, wondered if something was “wrong” with you, or struggled to combine love, safety, and attraction in relationships, this conversation will offer relief, perspective, and hope. Consider / Ask Yourself: Do you feel disconnected from yourself, others, or even spiritually? Did you grow up in an environment where you didn't feel safe or seen? Do you tend to be drawn to emotionally unavailable partners while overlooking those who are healthy and present? Are you approaching personal growth from the mindset of “fixing what's wrong” instead of cultivating compassion and curiosity? Key Insights and A-HAs: Nothing heals in judgment—shifting from “what's wrong with me” to self-compassion is essential. Attraction to unavailable partners is often a protective strategy that keeps deeper intimacy at bay. Our past selves and inner child need to be invited into the safety of the present moment. Healing requires integrating body-based practices, not just intellectual understanding. You are often further along in your healing than you realize. How to Deepen the Work: Practice inviting your inner child into current moments of connection and safety. Approach your healing with curiosity rather than judgment. Explore somatic or body-based trauma work to move stuck emotions and energy. Reframe protective strategies as once-necessary survival tools—and begin to update them with new choices. Remind yourself regularly: There is nothing wrong with you. Upcoming Event: Christine's Women's Retreat is happening October 17–19, 2025. This life-changing experience only happens every other year. Scholarships are now available, and Christine offers a money-back guarantee if you don't experience lasting transformation.

Freedom by Design: How to Build a Profitable Business That Serves Your Life with Michael Walsh   Most entrepreneurs start their journey with the dream of freedom—yet many quickly find themselves trapped by the very businesses they built. Revenue grows, responsibilities pile up, and the joy of entrepreneurship fades into overwhelm. In this Episode of the Profit Answer Man, I sat down with Michael Walsh, founder of the Walsh Business Growth Institute and author of Freedom by Design, to unpack how business owners can create companies that support—not suffocate—their lives. Michael has spent over 30 years guiding business owners through the predictable “danger zones” of growth. His message is clear: profit and freedom come when you design your business around your life, not the other way around.   Key Insights from Michael Walsh:  Business Must Serve Life, Not Just Profit. Too many owners chase revenue milestones—$1M, $5M, $10M—only to find bigger problems waiting at each stage. Michael warns: if profit is your only motivator, satisfaction will always elude you. The companies that thrive long-term are those designed to support the owner's life and impact. Reflection: Is your business structured to fuel your life's goals—or is your life revolving around your business? Growth Brings Predictable “Danger Zones”. Michael outlined the common revenue milestones where owners hit walls: $1M–$1.2M → the “zone of hell” where you're too big for DIY systems but too small to afford enterprise solutions. $5M and $10M → structures and systems must evolve or growth stalls. $12M–$20M → the toughest chasm, where people complexity and outdated processes collide. Takeaway: Each new level requires reinventing systems, structures, and leadership—not just “working harder.” Systems Alone Don't Scale—People Do. Rocky and Michael both love spreadsheets, but Michael cautions: numbers tell the story, but people drive the result. A well-designed business empowers its people to excel rather than constraining them with rigid systems. Reflection: Are your processes freeing your team to use their strengths—or boxing them in like cogs in a machine? Freedom Comes from Teamwork, Not Control. Michael stresses that leaders must shift from command-and-control to building intelligent ecosystems. True management is about helping people think, thrive, and work together. When teams are supported—not micromanaged—2+2 can equal 6. Question: How much time do you spend training people how to work together, not just what to do? The Future Belongs to the Creative Business Owner. AI is transforming the business landscape, but Michael warns that owners who outsource thinking to machines lose their edge. The next era isn't the Information Age—it's the Age of Creativity. Those who combine human insight with AI tools will thrive. Action Step: Don't fear AI—learn to use it as a creative partner to free you up for high-value problem solving.   Key Takeaways:  Profit Alone Won't Bring Fulfillment. Chasing revenue milestones without purpose leads to burnout. Businesses built around life goals—not just profit—create more satisfaction and sustainability. Growth Has Predictable “Danger Zones”. Each revenue milestone ($1M, $5M, $10M, $20M) comes with hidden challenges. Systems, structures, and leadership must evolve at every stage, or growth will stall. Systems Must Support People—Not Control Them. Processes should free your team to use their strengths, not box them in like cogs. Businesses thrive when systems empower people to excel. Freedom Comes Through Teams, Not Micromanagement. Leaders must shift from command-and-control to cultivating intelligent ecosystems. Strong teamwork multiplies results and creates freedom for owners. The Next Age is Creativity, Powered by AI. AI won't replace entrepreneurs—but those who creatively combine human judgment with AI tools will have a massive advantage in the years ahead.   About Michael Walsh: Michael Walsh is the founder of the Walsh Business Growth Institute and author of Freedom by Design: The Business Owner's Guide to Grow, Make an Impact, and Find Joy Again. For over 30 years, he has helped business owners in Canada, the U.S., and Europe scale profitably by aligning their companies with their life goals.   Links: Website: http://www.walshbusinessgrowth.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-walsh/   Conclusion: Freedom in business isn't about hitting the next revenue milestone—it's about designing a company that grows with you, supports your lifestyle, and empowers your team. Michael Walsh reminds us that profit follows purpose, systems must evolve with scale, and people—not spreadsheets—ultimately drive success. As the business landscape shifts into the age of creativity, those who align vision, systems, and people while leveraging tools like AI will unlock both profitability and freedom. Your business should give you life, not take it away. The choice to design it that way is yours.   Richer Soul Ep 440 The AI Driven Leader with Geoff Woods: https://richersoul.com/?s=Geoff+Woods   #ProfitFirst #BusinessGrowth #FinancialFreedom #SmartScaling #EntrepreneurLife #BusinessStrategy #LeadershipMatters #CashFlowFix #PurposeDrivenBusiness #CreativeEntrepreneur   Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@profitanswerman Sign up to be notified when the next cohort of the Profit First Experience Course is available!

Venkat Atluri, McKinsey senior partner and coauthor of The Ecosystem Economy: How to Lead in the New Age of Sectors Without Borders, explains how value creation is shifting from stand-alone enterprises to coordinated networks of collaborators. Drawing on two decades advising leaders in technology, media, and telecom, he outlines what makes ecosystem businesses distinct from traditional conglomerates—and the governance required to make them work at scale.   Atluri emphasizes that ecosystems aren't about diversification for its own sake, but about following a customer-led thread: “Start with the customer and then follow the thread—what other problems does that customer have that you can solve together with partners?”   Key Insights from the Conversation Beyond Suppliers: Many firms mistake a supplier list or procurement process for an ecosystem. Atluri is clear: “A supplier list is not an ecosystem. An ecosystem is about mutual value creation and sharing in the upside.” Role Clarity Matters: Some firms will anchor the platform, continuously raising the bar for developers and users. Others will participate as contributors, protecting privacy, quality, and customer experience. Scale only comes when “responsibilities, incentives, and accountability” are explicit. Discipline in Operating Models: He advises executives to integrate ecosystem thinking into strategy, but then run deeper, dedicated workstreams to define roles, economics, and governance. Competition Is Ecosystem vs. Ecosystem: Scenario planning must account for new types of disruptors and ask, “What would an ecosystem leader do here?” Over time, Atluri expects the economy to consolidate into a few macro-ecosystems with multiple micro-ecosystems nested beneath them. History as a Control: Symbian and BlackBerry illustrate that large user bases are not moats. “Unless you keep raising the bar on your proposition, you lose.” Customer Experience Sets the Standard: Consumer expectations now apply in B2B as well: “If something doesn't work out of the box, that tells you the company is focused on itself, not the customer.”

In this deeply supportive session, Christine coaches Erin, who has struggled with self-worth, self-trust, and confidence throughout her life. Recently assessed as neurodivergent, Erin has experienced both relief and grief—relief in finally having clarity, but grief in recognizing how much self-criticism and self-betrayal she carried for years. Christine guides Erin through understanding how childhood modeling, people-pleasing, and bypassing emotions have impacted her confidence. Together, they explore how building self-worth comes not from external validation, but from radical self-acceptance, emotional release, and advocating for one's needs in daily life. If you've ever felt “different,” struggled to trust yourself, or wondered how to move beyond self-criticism into true confidence, this conversation will resonate deeply. Consider / Ask Yourself: Did you grow up feeling “different” or like you didn't fit the mold? Do you often bypass your feelings, telling yourself “it's not a big deal”? Have you learned to be a chameleon, shape-shifting to fit others' needs? Are you quick to explain or excuse others' behavior instead of honoring your own hurt? Key Insights and A-HAs: True confidence comes from radical self-acceptance. Self-betrayal often shows up in small ways—ignoring needs, withholding truth, or people-pleasing. Relief can be a doorway into compassion and deeper healing. Suppressed emotions drain energy; released emotions unlock creativity and confidence. The inner child feels safer—and more confident—when we advocate for ourselves in everyday moments. How to Deepen the Work: Notice moments of self-betrayal in daily life and practice small acts of self-advocacy. Allow yourself to feel emotions fully, without judgment or rushing to fix them. Begin somatic practices that connect you to your body (dance, yoga, movement). Read Expectation Hangover by Christine Hassler, especially the section on emotional release. Redefine confidence as accepting all parts of yourself, not performing perfection. Upcoming Event: Christine's Women's Retreat is happening October 17–19, 2025. This transformational experience reconnects you to your body, emotions, and intuition, creating profound breakthroughs in confidence and clarity.

Hourly billing is the default pricing model for many writers. But it's also a hidden trap that can sabotage your growth, undervalue your expertise, and limit your income. If you've ever felt frustrated by the ceiling on your earnings or struggled to position yourself as a trusted partner rather than a hired hand, this episode will change the way you view pricing forever. In today's episode, I break down 15 compelling reasons why hourly billing is actively working against you — and what you can do instead to unlock your earning potential and build trust-based, outcome-focused client relationships. What You'll Learn Why hourly billing punishes efficiency and caps your income potential. How it undermines your positioning as an expert and devalues your unique expertise. The hidden costs of hourly billing: admin burden, client micromanagement, and trust erosion. The psychological traps that make it hard to raise your rates under hourly models. Why shifting to value-based pricing or project fees can transform your business. Steps to reframe client conversations around value and outcomes, not hours. Key Insights and Takeaways Hourly billing creates a perverse incentive against efficiency. The faster you work, the less you earn, which is the opposite of how a healthy freelance business should function. It permanently caps your income potential. There are only so many hours you can sell, and raising your hourly rate eventually hits a ceiling. It erodes trust and positions you as a commodity. Clients start focusing on hours rather than outcomes, leading to micromanagement and suspicion. It fails to capture your true value. Your best insights often come from years of accumulated expertise, not the hours it takes to execute a task. Fixed project fees and value-based pricing aligns your interests with your clients. When you price based on the outcomes and value you deliver, you can grow your income while building stronger client relationships. Memorable Soundbites ·       “Hourly billing rewards incompetence and punishes mastery.” ·       “You're not selling time, you're selling outcomes.” ·       “Hourly billing turns your business into a job you can't quit.” Action Steps

In this powerful coaching session, Christine supports Tessa, a psychic medium navigating the challenges of fully owning her intuitive gifts after leaving a successful engineering career. While her spiritual sensitivity has deepened, she still struggles with confidence, financial consistency, and the fear of stepping fully into her calling. Christine helps Tessa uncover how early life choices for safety and belonging influenced her path, why money is a sacred energetic exchange, and how to embrace confidence without falling into imposter syndrome. This session is especially resonant for anyone who has felt torn between a “practical” career and their true soul path—or who has struggled with feeling “too sensitive” in a world that doesn't always honor intuitive gifts. If you've ever wrestled with worthiness, worried about what others think, or hesitated to fully embody your calling, this episode will encourage you to claim your gifts with reverence, confidence, and joy. Consider / Ask Yourself: Do you minimize your intuitive or spiritual gifts out of fear of judgment? Were you rewarded as a child more for achievement than creativity or sensitivity? Do you toggle between wanting safety (financial or social) and wanting to live your truth? Is your sensitivity something you see as a liability rather than a blessing? Key Insights and A-HAs: True confidence is radical self-acceptance, not arrogance. Sensitivity is not a liability—it's a sacred strength when embraced. Financial abundance can flow through spiritual work when we claim it as valid and worthy. Belonging and validation from old systems (titles, achievements) can hold us back from owning our deeper callings. Spiritual gifts don't have to come with a cost—you don't need to “pay penance” for being gifted. How to Deepen the Work: Reflect on any early decisions you made to “fit in” and how they may still shape your choices. Reframe your sensitivity as spiritual hygiene, not a burden. Write and repeat affirmations claiming your gifts as part of your life's is-ness (e.g., “I make an abundant living through my spiritual gifts”). Notice when imposter syndrome shows up and remind yourself that reverence and humility are different from self-doubt. Normalize taking breaks, grounding, and nervous system care without making it a “big deal.” Upcoming Events: Christine's Women's Retreat is happening October 17–19, 2025. This immersive experience is designed to help you step out of your head, into your body, and reclaim your intuitive power. By the end of the retreat, women report profound clarity, spiritual awakenings, and a deep reconnection to their inner wisdom.
