Lets Be Honest Before We Start Pretending

October is always one of those months that I love a good challenge from a place of curiosity to see what I can learn.  In today’s episode I will share some of those as well as start a three-part mini-series of “The Accidental Entrepreneur” aka the story of how I got here and the lessons I have learned along the way. Today I give you a high level of the past 18 years that will support us moving into some powerful epiphanies and lessons along the way.

I also introduce “The Impact Collective” where we have a collection of offerings and tracks for women in business ready to level up their leadership, female entrepreneurs ready to scale, and women who are ready to take that leap of faith and work from a place of purpose & passion, creating the abundant life they know they want.

Are you ready? Are you a woman in business? Been thinking about taking a leap? Ready to make bold and massive moves? Love collaborating with highly committed and motivated women?  This is 100% for you, and first up will be the Impact Business Academy for Women in Business launching January 2022.  

There will be several workshops in November & December to help you get clear on your business objectives, so if you want more information on this please contact me at kellyjmobeck.com and get on the list for all the information.  I am passionate about women having the freedom, flexibility, and confidence to create exactly what they want in their life, to create the impact they want in life, their families, business with joy. So, I am thrilled to be restructuring my business to be able to create group coaching programs for women and create an even bigger impact. Because together we will create the new paradigms we want, the change we want, and legacies of impact.  That impact starts with YOU, in your life, that’s where we start.

You can go to www.kellyjmobeck.com  and get on the list to be the first in line.  Our team is also here to support you with an exploratory call to look at the value for you.

We will be having some fun workshops coming up in the next three months to set you up for a 2022 that is mind blowing full of growth and impact, you want to be there. More info on the website, and I will continue to share here also.

Here are the highlights from this episode:

{3:54} The challenge is not what you want, but who you are

{8:24} Stuck in the quicksand of shoulds

Can you believe we are in the final Quarter of 2021; this is just crazy making?  Happy Fall, happy October, and happy fourth quarter.  Today we are going to look at finishing this year strong and look ahead to 2022.  Even though there are so many uncertainties, it’s always a good idea to plan.  As a coach, this is the time of year when my clients and I look back on the results that were created throughout the year, we look at what we hit, where we needed to pivot, what worked, what did not work, and all the things we learned along the way.  It is a powerful exercise. And I highly recommend you do this. I do this with my business clients, my entrepreneurs, as well as those working on self-development.  And don’t pass up those personal outcomes, they are equally as important, because we are whole people, so take that holistic approach. 

I’ve always looked at October as a great time to revisit the outcomes and goals we set back in January and do something today that I know my future self will thank me for.  It truly looks a little different or maybe a lot different this year, and I know there are so many things we have learned along the way. So take the time to acknowledge them, the lessons are important.

Here are the highlights from this episode:

{0:52} It's fall y'all!

{5:00} A CEO strategy retreat

{8:53} Write down everything you've accomplished so far

{12:51} The three Rs to success

{15:46} You have to be in it to win it

{18:39} Get off your rear and get into gear

Do you remember 2020 and feeling like being on a teeter totter of being motivated to move vs what was happening during the height of Covid-19? As the world began to re-open bit by bit, it was like coming out of some sort of hibernation in some ways. The constant posts from “this is the time to do more, be more, create more” to “don’t buy into the you need to be more” posts were enough to make one dizzy. Which way do we go? 

I think we often find ourselves in the “which way do I go” mode. There is meaning we will all make up for ourselves or have made up for ourselves all the time, and we all at some level reinvent, contribute, and move forward. Bottom line, wherever you are in the matter is wherever you are supposed to be. Trust that and trust yourself. 

During this episode we will explore creating yourself vs. finding yourself.  It’s about choice and action all along the way. 

Here are the highlights from this episode:

{5:21} Life is about creating yourself

{8:59} Become the person you want to be

{11:59} We all have the power of choice

{16:25} Don't blend in

{19:44} Put yourself in an empowered mindset

Have you ever felt like a fraud?  Do you doubt your capabilities? Most of us have, as a matter of fact. Anytime we are stretching outside of our comfort zone or hitting the next level in our lives.

The question here is, are we a fraud really?  Or are we doubting who we really are, and who we are for people, our purpose in life, and what we must contribute? 

I believe in my whole heart we are not frauds; we are human beings having a human experience, and therefore it is natural we are going to argue for limitations from time to time. 

In this episode we are continuing to explore the power of choice where we take on overcoming the Imposter by leaning into our Champion. 

As entrepreneurs, leaders, professionals, and self-growth seekers have you taken the time to get familiar with your champion?  And by the way who is this champion anyway? 

The champion argues for our greatness even on days we aren’t feeling it! NOW your champion is not smoke and mirrors, your champion is in fact telling you the very truth you are resisting.  Your champ wants you to get “you’ve got this” and 100% believes in CONFIDENCE BEFORE COMPETENCE!! 

Here are the highlights from this episode:

{5:36} Most of us deal with imposter syndrome

{10:06} Busy vs productive

{16:06} We all begin somewhere

{20:18} You have the right to be wrong

{23:13} Acknowledge yourself

{27:22} Amp up the champion

There are “no accidents” in life, what is occurring we may never know the reason; however, we can always find meaning in it. When we embrace that life happens for us, we can stay present, keep out of worry, learn the lessons and contribute to others.

In this episode we will discuss the concept that “Life happens for us, not to us”. We are all here for a purpose, there is a plan for us, and we get to move through life learning lessons, growing, and being a contribution to others, while responding to the curve Balls that we don’t really plan for and yet, they show up for us. This is a powerful episode where we get an opportunity to explore mindset and have a set of questions to evaluate the gifts that the curve balls are really bringing us.

Here are the highlights from this episode:

{4:58} Get yourself out of the pity party

{8:00} Covid has thrown a huge curve ball into our lives

{11:06} You can live easier knowing everything is happening for your good

{13:54} I love intention

{17:53} Circumstances are just circumstances

{20:30} It's never been more important to get up and keep moving

Since the beginning of this podcast, we have been talking about choice.   Bottom line, we all make choices every single day. Being in ownership for our life and what we have created and what we want to create going forward is all about choice.  Today we are going to explore accountability and why it’s important to have an accountability partner.  I am so excited to have my accountability partner Cami McLaren on and we trust you are going to be empowered to create accountability partnerships going forward. We believe it is a catalyst in taking the lead in your life. Let’s go!

Remember last week on Episode 67 when we talked about setting goals, being unreasonable, getting uncomfortable, and creating meaning, joy, and fulfillment in life? Yea that was a good one!

Today we will continue with the theme through a story that was life changing and one that reminds me to keep growing, stretching, and living the life I want while being a contribution to others.  It was a time when I stretched way out of my comfort zone and when I woke up that morning had no idea it was coming.  Life is funny like that, take the opportunities, and when a perfectly good plane appears in your life, JUMP!

{1:04} Remember when I jumped out of a plane?

{3:07} When a perfectly good plane appears, go ahead and jump

{6:09} The illusion of control

{8:41} Being stretched beyond your comfort zone

{17:37} Fighting self-limiting beliefs

{20:01} Never heard more silence in my life

{23:41} I did it
