LITerally

In Session 6 with Robyn, we discuss the balance of ambition and contentment, and what it means to want more when you're so good with what you have. We dive deep into balance in terms of our offers, our legacy, and our desires. And we look at what is driving the fear of wanting or asking for more. This is such a great episode that really showcases the tension we all face in being happy with where we are and wanting to create more simultaneously.

• What we're using basecamp support for and what that looks like

• Balancing the desire to create legacy work without putting on too much pressure

In Session 4 with Robyn, we go deep. We talk about being the default parent, the toxicity of doing it all, sacred rage, and deep grief. Robyn shares so openly and vulnerably that I'm moved to tears even typing these words. It's a truly beautiful episode that, while touching on many personal things, really is a testament to the power of vulnerability. With yourself and with others. I'm so grateful to Robyn for this episode. I know you'll feel the same.

In this episode, you'll hear:

• The real challenge of being the default parent and business owner that needs to get talked about more

• The toxicity of "doing it all" (and why ALUL didn't grow last year)

• Re-working the entire foundation of your belief system and what that entails

• The sacred rage Robyn is letting herself lean into and what grief is teaching her

In this solo episode, we discuss the differences in scaling and selling a large group offer vs. 1:1. Too often in the online space we act as though these are exactly the same in terms of how you'd approach them strategically and they are absolutely not. We dive into the differences, how that's showing up for Robyn, and the "why" behind different strategic choices so that you can feel more clear on the what and why and can apply it to your own business for more results.

In this episode, you'll hear:

• How to distinguish what might be relevant to you and your business here and what to let go of

• When it actually matters to niche and what that can look like

• What building relationships look like at different stages of business

• How you need to shift your view on marketing when it's time to reach more people

• The fundamental principle behind growing a scalable offer

We dive into the differences, how that's showing up for Robyn, and the "why" behind different strategic choices so that you can feel more clear on the what and why and can apply it to your own business for more results.

In Session 3 with Robyn, we discuss all things scaling and messaging. The truth is, in order to scale a program you need specific messaging that helps you stand out, and we're getting clear on what that means for Robyn. Some of it is mindset and energetic and some of it is smart strategy, and you'll get to see how it all fits together. We also dive into some of the shadow sides of sharing in this way- like the fact that people will misunderstand you no matter what. It's a great episode that blends a bit of everything and will absolutely have some nuggets for you no matter where you're at in your own journey.

In this episode, you'll hear:

• Why we often undervalue the things that come easiest to us

• What to do if social media feels like a high school cafeteria

• How to cultivate a willingness to deal with the challenges that come with growth (like being misunderstood)

• An important Q to ask yourself to determine your best strategy

• The thing that matters most for scaling (that you don't have to worry about for 1:1)

• An obvious but important messaging hack that just might blow your mind

In Session 2 with Robyn, we start with leaning into pricing and strategy and end up going WAY deeper into the new identity that's emerging for Robyn and the importance of centering yourself in your own life and business more. We talk about 'look at me marketing', the patriarchy & systems that impact how we show up, and the identity shift Robyn is experiencing as she comes back to herself after pregnancy, grief, and loss.

In this episode, you'll hear:

• The things that actually communicate who your program is for (outside of just what you're saying about it)

• The good/bad that comes with hearing "This is so much more valuable than I thought!"

• What truly makes someone compelling

• The problem with the "I'll just go show them" mentality we can get stuck in (and that I often find myself stuck in too!)

• A look at the systems that influence how we engage with life and our businesses

• The importance of "centering" yourself and how Robyn is entering a new era around this concept

In Session 1 with Robyn, we get to know her and her business and discuss how it can be quite scary to scale a good thing. Robyn's plans for her business have changed quite a bit in recent months and she's looking at re-working and re-defining what's there (even though, in many ways, she loves it as is). We dive into her current offers, what motivates her, and the fears that come with change.

In this episode, you'll hear:

• Why it can be really scary to scale what's already working well

• The thing Robyn shares that MOST of the online space would label as a block, and why I feel differently

• Permission to prioritize your lifestyle over massive numbers (and what that looks like)

• How a boring business can be the best thing for you

• The fears around fractured audience trust that can come with big change

• How control shows up in our business (especially after traumatic experiences)

In this Intro to Season 9, we kick off with a get-to-know-you session with our new coachee, Robyn Gooding! It's such a fun conversation that takes you deep on Robyn's story and gives you context around who she is, what both of her businesses are, what her life is like as a mama (whose husband travels for work), and what she's most excited and freaked out about when it comes to being on the podcast.

In this episode, you'll hear:

• Robyn's super interesting back story and how coaching "chose her"

• Why Robyn wanted to work together and what made her say 'yes' to the podcast

In this final episode with Angie, we're wrapping up Season 8 and going fully off of our normal wrap up questions! Typically, I ask specific Q's about someone's time on the podcast and that was… not at all what we did this episode. We had an incredible convo on the challenges of being a working mom, what accountability means, what really creates sustainable growth in business, and the huge year Angie has had. It is such a juicy convo (that I cannot wait for you to hear), and the best way we could have wrapped this season.

In this episode, you'll hear:

• Our take on the challenges working mothers face

• Angie's truth (that she knows she'll be judged for) around how she feels as a working mom

• A personal share about something my therapist reminded me of recently

• Angie's funny (but deeply important and telling) share that she surprises me with

• Angie's revelations around accountability and sustainable growth

• A reflection on Angie's year and what it means to honor and acknowledge the tough seasons
