For something that touches every one of us, many people still feel grief-illiterate. Whether it's impacting someone close to you or your entire community, it can be difficult to figure out what to say or how to offer support. In light of the recent flooding in Texas, I wanted to have a heartfelt conversation about collective grief, the grieving process, and what it truly means to show up for others in both the short and long term.

I’m honored to have my client and Master Coach, Margo Fordonski, join me to offer her wisdom surrounding the grieving process. Margo is a trained grief educator who brings her professional insight and her personal experience with grief to this topic. We discuss how grief affects us individually and collectively, and how we can support one another when the unexpected happens.

In this episode, you’ll hear about specific ways to support someone who is grieving, how to offer help in the midst of collective grief, and why it’s never too late to reach out—whether the loss happened recently or many years ago. Grief is hard, and many of us are afraid to say or do the wrong thing. Because of this, we often end up doing nothing at all. However, the more we normalize this universal, human experience, the more we can understand how to navigate grief and to support others. 

What you’ll learn:

• The ripple effects of community tragedy and collective grief
• Why every grief experience looks different–and grieving never has a deadline
• Three specific tips for how to support someone who is grieving in the early stages
• How to be a steady presence for someone after a loss in the long-term
• Why small actions—a text, sharing a photo, using their loved one’s name—can help support someone who is grieving

Her personal journey led her to a powerful calling: to support other mothers navigating life after the unthinkable.

Through her coaching, writing, and lived witness, Margo offers a safe and understanding space for grieving moms to feel less overwhelmed, more connected to themselves, and begin to rebuild a life that holds both sorrow and joy.

In the current state of the world, we have all the information we could need at our fingertips—AI, ChatGPT, and automation are providing answers faster than we can come up with questions. But what's missing is context, meaning, and human connection. 

In this episode, I explore what the world is truly missing—and how transformational coaching and emotional intelligence in leadership can help fill the void. Because while we’re flooded with knowledge, we’re starving for wisdom, depth, and integration. We’re experiencing a constant cognitive overload that still leaves us longing for clarity and purpose.

If information alone were enough, we’d all have the perfect body, bank account, relationships, and self-esteem. Everybody would feel at peace and achieve all their dreams. But transformation requires more than knowledge. It requires you—your presence, your leadership, your ability to bring the human element back to the world.

Today, we’ll discuss how you can create a life and leadership model not based on all-knowing perfection, but on presence and authenticity. We are in a moment of global transition. There are huge transformations happening all around us, and if you have felt called to lead, coach, and help others grow, you might be the exact kind of person the world is waiting for. 

What you’ll learn:

• Why leadership models today need to look radically different from those of the past
• Why coaches and leaders must go beyond the surface-level work we were trained to do and adopt a holistic approach
• How research consistently shows that sustainable results come from integration, not information
• Why the world needs healing, kindness, and emotional intelligence in leadership instead of more seemingly perfect people
• How you can bridge the gap between where people are and where they want to be through transformational coaching and leadership

How can a strategic “no” be just as valuable to your business as a “yes”? When you’re growing, it’s easy to feel pressure to say yes to every opportunity, client, and commitment that seems beneficial. But the truth is, saying no to things that are misaligned with your values, short-term temptations, or simply clutter in your life is one of the most powerful tools you have for building your ideal life—and supporting your clients in doing the same.

When it comes to leading change in your own life, there are so many small concepts and principles that make the changes you are seeking so much easier, and the power of no is one of them. Think about it–if you're feeling overwhelmed, off-track, or uncertain, the answer likely isn’t doing more, but saying a few bold, intentional nos. These strategic nos are often the difference between burnout and sustainable coaching success. In this episode, we're exploring your willingness and capacity to say no and how doing so can unlock clarity, business alignment, and coaching success.

It’s normal to feel some resistance when you begin practicing the power of no. Turning down any opportunity can feel counterintuitive when you’re building a business, but every conscious no creates space for a more meaningful yes. The transformations that you and your clients crave can and will happen when you say no to the things that do not serve your higher purpose.

From my own experience and the work I’ve done with clients in Master Coach Training, I know that your greatest gifts, resources, and abilities come to the surface when you are able to boldly claim what you want and back it up with a willingness to say no to things that do not align. You can create the quality of life that you are craving when you start with a strategic “no.” Let's get started!

What you’ll learn:

• An exercise to uncover what’s cluttering your life—and what becomes possible when you build your muscle of saying no
• The incredible lessons that we can learn from nature about space and alignment
• Three types of no and how to identify them: the misaligned no, the short-term temptation no, and the clutter no
• A personal story about saying no to a seemingly great opportunity and why it was the most aligned decision I could make
• How to trust yourself to recognize when a yes is truly aligned with your coaching success

Many coaches begin in this field because we're driven by the craving for more from life! Can you relate? It's easy to get stuck going through the motions — merely existing rather than feeling truly alive. So, you follow your passion for helping others and begin to build a coaching business. Now, you're a catalyst for transformation, guiding your clients down their own path of rediscovering their authentic selves.

I am thrilled to welcome business coach Candy Motzek to the podcast. Today, we explore the journey of becoming a coach and why self-connection is your greatest asset when it comes to building a successful coaching business. Candy specializes in empowering intelligent professionals to launch and grow their coaching businesses. She works with many women in midlife who are facing burnout in their careers and are yearning for something more fulfilling. Women in this stage of life often face a unique set of challenges. Whether it's perimenopause, kids growing up and leaving home, or simply waking up one day to the realization that there must be more to life than what you've experienced, this is a time for change and a time for coming back to who you truly are.

This journey of coming back to life is so important — not only for the purpose of discovering your desire to become a coach, but also for laying the groundwork for a thriving and sustainable coaching business. We'll dive into some of the steps you and your clients will take as you make this transformation and build a coaching business, as well as unpack the challenges that may arise when transitioning away from a structured, rule-oriented career environment and into the uncertainty and flexibility of having a coaching business. 

Regardless of your background, it can feel like you're making it up as you go when you build a coaching business. However, this experience doesn't have to feel frantic. When we view this venture from a creative perspective, this freedom enables us to build a business that aligns with our aspirations and best serves our clients. Each of us has the power to shape how we deliver our coaching and run our business. Channeling your creative spirit and fostering self-connection will allow both you and your business to come to life. Let's jump in!

What you'll learn:

• The power creativity has to connect us to our purpose
• Two common paths to the decision to build a coaching business
• Why rediscovering childhood creative practices helps build your capacity for running a coaching business
• How to navigate the shift from career structure to entrepreneurial freedom
• Advise for overcoming imposter syndrome and staying aligned with your values

Here's the truth no one talks about: You don't get what you want in life—you get what your nervous system feels safe receiving.

Think about it—every client who comes to work with you has something they deeply desire. They've likely tried multiple strategies, taken all the "right" steps, and still aren't seeing results. Whether it's more money, a thriving relationship, or a successful business, the reason their goal remains out of reach often isn't due to a lack of capability or an outside factor–but because their nervous system isn't yet on board.

Nervous system regulation is the missing link between your goals and your ability to receive the outcome of your achievement. If you're trying to hustle your way into a vision that your body doesn't feel safe holding, you'll burn out or sabotage. This is why Master Coach Training is such a powerful process for you as a coach, and for the clients you serve. 

The nervous system equates "familiar" with "safe"–even if that means staying stuck instead of moving forward. Today, we'll look at what nervous system regulation truly looks like so you can break this pattern, and I'll offer you several coaching tools and strategies that will help you and your clients expand your capacity to receive from a place of safety. 

The vision you have for your life and business is powerful, but it can't just be about setting goals. You can want something sincerely, but without nervous system regulation, you will stay stuck. When you have the holistic coaching tools to build safety and open yourself up to receive, real transformation and lasting change are possible—for you and your clients. 

What you'll learn:

• Why true nervous system regulation focuses on helping your body get used to something different 
• Common signs that your nervous system does not feel safe receiving–and what to do about them
• Practical coaching tools to create safety in the nervous system: somatic anchoring, tapping, and microdosing change
• How to bridge the gap between your vision and the safety you need to achieve it
• Journal prompts to uncover why it feels unsafe to get what you want

Have you registered for Molly’s upcoming webinar on emotional mastery? As a coach and entrepreneur, it is vital that you understand more about your own emotional world. There's always more to understand about you as a human being and about our clients–SIGN UP NOW so you don’t miss this powerful opportunity!

What’s a big goal that you're working towards right now? Growing your coaching business? Signing more clients or increasing your revenue? Or perhaps it's a personal goal, like improving your quality of life, working less, or focusing more on your relationships. Whatever it is, that big change is possible for you. But even with that vision in mind, you may still struggle to stick with the path of getting there. In this episode, we'll explore the challenges that come with changing your life and how your daily decisions can create lasting change sustainably–one small choice at a time. 

When we set out to make changes, we often come up with a big plan of action. However, this can leave us feeling overwhelmed, discouraged, or frustrated when we don't progress as quickly as we desire. I want to offer you this: sometimes, doing less and pushing less—while gently bringing daily intention into small moments—is much more powerful than even the biggest, grandest plan. 

Today, we'll talk about the trap of grand gestures and why we're drawn to dramatic change in the first place. We explore how inaction often follows those big attempts that fall flat, and the impact of the deeper things that are going on within us. When you combine mindset shifts with an understanding of the nervous system, examining the small choices in your life provides a gentle entry point to transformation with less resistance and greater ease. 

Small changes, made in small moments, can truly lead to the greatest shifts. We'll look at this through the lens of you as a business owner, as someone working toward personal growth, and as a coach supporting others through change. When you focus on daily decisions, you create your own step-by-step guide to lasting change—and you learn how to help your clients do the same.

• Why small decisions are more sustainable than grand gestures when shaping the life you want
• The nervous system's role in sabotaging big change 
• How energy cost impacts your ability to create lasting change
• Examples of small daily decisions and how they build habits that drive transformation
• Why the four fundamentals of lasting change are essential to this approach—for both you and your clients

As coaches, we've all experienced the moment when everything feels aligned–your offer is solid, your webinar is ready to sell, a client is about to sign–and then… it doesn't happen. No sign-ups, no clients, nothing. We've all been here, right? It's a big letdown, and it's often difficult not to take the defeat personally. However, this moment does not have to define you or your coaching business. Overcoming business challenges isn’t easy, but it’s possible when you use these moments as tools for continued growth instead of allowing it to be a setback. This potential is what we will explore today. 

What did you do that last time something didn't work out like you had anticipated? Did you begin to question yourself, your decisions, or even your mission? Did you panic and go into the frantic action of problem-solving? Did you emotionally fall apart? All of these are common responses to perceived failure–and they're all completely normal. Why? Because we're human. We have nervous systems that cause us to have these responses. When you begin to understand our reactions from a compassionate, holistic perspective, you reclaim your power. Building awareness around these patterns allows you to offer yourself a more supportive path of greater choice when overcoming business challenges.

This space of letdown exists for everybody–and in this episode, we're talking about it as a space of choice and curiosity. What are you choosing, and why? What could be different with just a little more awareness, compassion, or self-connection? These moments offer you a profound opportunity—not to criticize yourself or "fix" your business, but to understand yourself more deeply and respond with intention so you can continue to lead with the very best parts of who you are and what you have to offer. Let's get started!

What you'll learn:

• Why failure is universal–not personal–and how what we do in those moments is key to overcoming business challenges
• Three common but unhelpful reaction patterns–the downward spiral, the suppression, and erosion of self
• Tools and practices to help you process complicated emotions build resilience for overcoming business challenges
• How to create a more supportive process for handling setbacks through intentional emotional anchoring
• The importance of separating your inner knowing from external outcomes

Do you struggle with accepting money and embracing financial abundance in your business? For heart-centered coaches especially, navigating wealth can be a challenging task. Even though you are highly skilled and passionate about cultivating lasting change in your clients, you may feel limited by a lack of confidence around money or the negative connotations often associated with it. Maybe you know you deserve more financial freedom, but no matter how hard you hustle or how many numbers you crunch, you are not getting to where you want to be financially. 

Almost every business owner struggles with money at some stage. But here's the truth: Money is not the villain; it's a vital force that supports us in achieving our goals and empowers us (and those around us) to thrive in our zones of genius. While business tools and strategic planning can lead to greater financial success, manifesting wealth begins within ourselves. A spiritual money mindset is the key to being genuinely open to receiving the abundance you seek. 

I'm thrilled to explore the connection between financial abundance and spirituality today with Master Coach Jamie Berman. Not only do I admire Jamie so much as a human being, but we are aligned in how we approach supporting clients through change. Jamie blends everything from mindset and the nervous system to psychology and spirituality into one place for growth and expansion--she helps her clients step into the person they want to be and the business they want to have. 

You'll hear about Jamie’s transformational journey with money and how a spiritual money mindset will help you open up financially and feel more powerful as a human being, a coach, and a business owner. There is truly something for everyone in this episode.

Manifesting wealth starts with the inner work you’re willing to do around money. You have the power to create what you want–when you tap into your spirituality and develop your understanding of how money intertwines with your life, you can accept the wealth coming your way. After all, you can’t run a business without money, and your business is what allows you to reach and uplift more people while doing what you love.

Whatever your less-than-desirable money-related behaviors are–whether it's lack of money, hoarding of money, or anything else coming up–caring for our fears and a commitment to healing is the solution. Your relationship with money is multifaceted, and a more positive experience is possible for you. I can’t wait for you to hear all about it!

What you’ll learn:

• How a spiritual money mindset helps coaches manifest wealth
• How being with your emotions will expand your capacity to receive
• Why associating money with greed or power has more to do with our fears than reality
• An exercise to help you understand the positive ripple effect money has in the world
• Why healing your relationship will enhance your journey as an entrepreneur

About Jamie Berman

Jamie Berman is a master certified coach with a background in Spiritual Psychology. She teaches the concept of Soulful Manifestation to entrepreneurs who want to make more money in a way that’s fully-aligned, and in service to their soul values. She became very passionate about this work after she made her first 100k in business the “old, outdated, overly-masculine” way, working long hours, listening to everyone else, and shutting down her intuition. She reached that 100k but was burnt out and depressed. She knew that this was not success, and there had to be a better way. That’s when she decided to experiment with a different way. She decided to slow way down, create more space, and bring her spirituality and manifestation into her business. That year, she ended up working about 1/4 the time her business exploded. She exceeded her income goal and went on to make a half-million the following year. She is dedicated to helping entrepreneurs do the same in her Money Manifestation Course and Soulful Six-Figure Mastermind.

Emotions are foundational in our overall well-being. They shape our relationships, affect our careers, and influence countless other areas where our clients seek support. Yet, for many of us and our clients, sometimes emotions can feel vague or ambiguous. Why? We were never taught to clearly identify our emotions and still may not have the language to articulate them. 

Understanding and accurately labeling the feelings we experience is crucial for mental health. If most people are unable to do this, that means we’ve got some work to do. But here’s the great news: Emotional capacity and intelligence are measurable and learnable–we can build them just like we build muscles. This is the essential skill we'll focus on in today’s podcast episode. 

The truth is, we are all going to face setbacks. But your emotional world–your skills, awareness, and connectedness surrounding your emotions–is one of the most vital components of your stability. To help you understand how significant our emotions are, I’ll share insights from the largest study on emotional intelligence and explore the current "emotional recession" impacting us and our clients. I’ll also take you through a relevant analogy to help you understand how emotions act as stabilizers and how to expand our emotional capacity—practically and powerfully.

When we develop our knowledge around the power and importance of emotions–and understand what it means to truly connect with them–we can expand our capacity to navigate life. Building your emotional intelligence muscles as a coach not only allows you to show up powerfully for your clients and cultivate lasting change in their lives, but it also means you are increasing their awareness of the muscles that they need to strengthen. When we do this work—individually and collectively—we have more meaningful life experiences filled with purpose, gratitude, connection, and empathy. I can’t wait to show you how this is possible in today’s episode.

• Key summary points from the State of the Heart 2024 report on emotional intelligence
• The definition of “emotional recession” and how one is currently affecting all of us
• Why many people lack the awareness to understand and label their emotions accurately
• A personal story that highlights the importance of emotional skills as a stabilization tool
• What it really means to be with our emotions and how skilled coaches guide clients through this process
