EPISODE 126: Staying In The Coaching Game With Caryn Gillen

It can seem like life coaches are a dime a dozen these days. The truth is, the industry has become pretty saturated and if you’re a coach, the current business landscape can feel a little daunting.

EPISODE 124: Working From Your Genius Zone (And How To Get There!)

In “Working From Your Genius Zone (And How To Get There!)” we are getting real about the fact that your “outgoing brain” isn’t always the one you want to do business with -- sometimes you have to shift your nervous system and “tune in” to your intuition so that you can brainstorm effectively. I am diving deep into the neuroscience that is making you feel “stuck” and unable to produce valuable material when you carve out time to work on your business yet repeatedly come up empty-handed. And then I’m giving you the transformational tools you need to shift out of fear, imposter syndrome, and scarcity in order to set up an environment of creative flow and ease that you may never have imagined possible!

Listen in and discover what you need to implement in order to get in touch with what I call your Genius Zone. It’s time to learn the soulful skills that will allow you to embody your awesomeness, articulate with crystal clear clarity the outcomes you provide for your people, and truly madly deeply connect with the ideal clients that you deserve!
