About the host:

Hi, friend! My name is Pamela Hughes and I’m a former talk show host turned life coach. After 20 years in the news business, I walked away from what people thought I should do and I did what I wanted to do … coach people who are stuck like I was and help them find relief, awareness and control within themselves.

This was no easy task and I’m not here telling you it was. I had to take full responsibility for where my life was and then decide where I wanted it to go. It was time to stop complaining about my situation and do something about it. I had to stop looking for others to validate me and start having my own back. This required looking inside myself for the answers instead of looking outside myself.

I told you it wasn’t easy … but I wouldn’t change one thing about my journey because it led me right here to you reading about it, maybe identifying with aspects of it and hopefully being inspired to get UNSTUCK.

Hey there, folks! Today on "Unstuck Your Life with Pamela Hughes," we're talking about the difference between self-confidence and confidence. Now, I know what you're thinking, "aren't they the same thing?" Nope, not at all! Pamela explains that confidence comes from experience, like being a pro at putting on your pants or hitting a 90mph fastball. But self-confidence, on the other hand, is all about how you feel about yourself, your worth, and your value as a person.

So, how do you build up that self-confidence muscle? Well, Pamela's got some great tips, like self-reflection, journaling, and replacing those pesky negative thoughts with positive ones. Remember, building self-confidence takes time and effort, but it's so worth it for personal growth and success. So go ahead, believe in yourself, upgrade that thinking, and don't be too hard on yourself if you have a bad day.

I want to celebrate a huge milestone with you - Episode #100! I can’t believe we’ve made it this far and I want to take a moment to thank you for being a part of this amazing journey.

In today’s episode, I’m going to share one of my secrets to staying focused, and it’s simple, yet powerful. 

Seven years ago, I started wearing a bracelet on my wrist with a metal circle that had one word on it - MY WORD. This word was meant to remind me of what I was focusing on, who I was becoming, and to inspire, ground and push me forward.

I’ve gone through different seasons in my life and my word has changed several times.

In today’s episode, I want to inspire you to choose your own word and help you discover what that word may be. 

Think about your season, what you’re focusing on, and what resonates with you. Your word could be anything that inspires and motivates you, and it could change as you go through different seasons in life.  

I'll also be sharing some of my favorite words and the stories behind them, hoping to inspire you to choose your own word.

Thank you again for your support and I can’t wait for you to join me for Episode #100 and to discover you're own WORD!

You find what you're looking for in life. 

If you're looking for all the things that are going wrong, holding you back and what you can't do, YOU'RE GOING TO FIND IT!

On the flip side, if you start challenging yourself to start looking for all the things that are going well, the progress you've made and the small steps you've taken forward, YOU'LL FIND THEM TOO! 

Life is full of both fulfilling and stressful moments.  As humans we experience both joy and pain.  We have both positive moments and negative ones. It's the duality of life.  But which experiences are you choosing to focus on more?  Not sure? Answer this, if ten people give you a complement and one person gives you a criticism, what do you pay more attention to most the many complements or the one criticism? 

In this episode, I'll explain the biological wiring that guarantees you find what you're looking for and ways to rewire your brain so you find more of what you say you want. 

I'll do this with the help of one of my favorite self help books, The Gap and the Gain by Dan Sullivan. 

If after listening to this podcast, or this series, you're ready to get out of your own way and create the life you know you're capable of having ...  but you need someone to guide you along the way, teach you tools and concepts that will get you there and support you on this journey, click here  to schedule a free 1:1 zoom call with me to dive into where you are, where you want to go and how I can help get you there.
