A few weeks ago during the Visibility Masterclass Series, I did a live coaching demo with Kate - a coach who was navigating something I see all the time. She knew what she wanted to say. She had the experience and the expertise. But every time she went to show up on LinkedIn or social media, she'd see what everyone else was doing and think: "I should be doing that. That looks amazing. I'm not ready."

Sound familiar?

In this 12-minute coaching demo, we explore what's really going on when being yourself feels harder than copying everyone else - and what shifts when you stop trying to be good at "marketing" and start being good at being you.

Thanks to Kate for volunteering and allowing me to share this with you.

Big love, Jamie

I just recorded this about something I've been noticing more and more with coaches and change-workers.

As AI makes it easier than ever to create content, something a little strange seems to be happening.

The people working hardest to be visible are often the ones who end up feeling the most invisible.

Not in a dramatic way.

More like getting lost in the noise.

So how do you cut through the noise and reach the people you're here to make a difference to?

In this clip, I share what I've come to think of as the visibility paradox - and why "the way to cut through" isn't where most people are looking.

Big love, Jamie

P.S. If this topic feels relevant for you right now, I'm running a free 4-part Visibility Masterclass Series starting this Sunday called "Getting Yourself Out There in the Age of AI."

We'll explore how to remove what's obscuring your signal, and share your work in a way that feels true and actually connects with the people you're here to serve.

You can grab your spot here: https://www.jamiesmart.com/Visibility

In this episode, I'm joined by my friend and colleague Ankush Jain – coach, teacher, speaker, founder of Coaching Career School, and author of the new book Awakening the Coach Within.

We talk about the real journey behind building a coaching practice: the early days, the missteps, the breakthroughs, and the insights that shaped everything that came after. This is a very open, very human conversation about what it actually takes to do this work in a grounded, sustainable way.

In this conversation, we explore:

• What the early years of a coaching business really look like

• Why seeing coaching as a calling changes everything

• How generosity plays a surprising role in client creation

• Why trust and relationship will matter more than ever in the years ahead

• The courage and clarity behind Ankush's new book

If you're a coach — new or experienced — this is a conversation worth hearing.

Every so often I get to share a conversation that reminds me why I love this work - seeing what becomes possible when someone's life and creativity start unfolding from clarity.

That's exactly what happened in this new episode with my friend and colleague Greg Fisher, author of Unleash Your Potential.

Greg's a long-time coach and consultant, and in this conversation we explore the journey behind his latest book - and the deeper understanding that's shaped it. At the heart of it is a simple idea Greg describes beautifully: thought is the quiet engine behind everything we experience.

Here's a taste of what we explore together:

• The "quiet engine" that's driving every moment of your experience • How frustration and overthinking dissolve when you see how the system really works • Why loving yourself isn't self-indulgence - it's sanity • How one small shift in perspective can change the way you see everything It's a grounded, inspiring conversation - the kind that helps you see new possibilities for yourself and your work.

You can find Greg's book Unleash Your Potential (and the audiobook version) at his website teamuyp.com

In this extract from a recent live session, Jamie explores the value of a principles understanding in times of crisis.

The world is shifting fast — with AI, volatility and uncertainty reshaping how we live and work. Yet there's something deeper, unchanging, that every human being has access to.

In this episode, Jamie shares:

• Why AI might soon outthink (and outwork) us — and why that's not the real issue

• What humanity still has that no technology can replicate

• And how awakening to the truth of who you really are might just be our best path forward

A sobering yet hopeful reflection on what it means to navigate life from wisdom, wellbeing and purpose.

This short clip is from one of my Masterclasses, where I talk about what I see as the real source of transformation.

It's not about models or techniques — it's about the art of being a mirror, and letting another person catch a glimpse of who they really are.

If you're drawn to this kind of deep, grounded transformation, I think you'll really enjoy this one.

Big love,

Jamie

In this short 4-minute clip from my recent masterclass AI, Coaching & the 3Ps – One Year On, a participant shared that a potential client had asked him:

"Why should I hire you when I can just use ChatGPT for free?"

It's a great question — and one every coach, therapist, and changeworker will need to answer sooner or later.

In this video, I share how I responded… and what it reveals about the rapidly changing world of coaching and therapy.

You'll hear:

•⁠ ⁠The surprising truth about what AI is already doing better than many coaches

•⁠ ⁠Why the usual "human" answers won't be enough in the years ahead

•⁠ ⁠And the one thing AI will never be able to replicate — the human spirit

It's a short but vital reflection on how to stay relevant and impactful in a world being reshaped by AI.

This episode is a short extract from a recent session in one of my advanced programmes. On the surface, it's about something simple: knowing what you want. But as you'll hear, this turns out to be far more powerful (and transformative) than most people realise.

I talk about the subtle difference between "nice-to-have" goals and the kind of wanting that changes everything, and share a personal shift in how I approach my coaching work.

A lot of coaches are starting to feel uneasy about the impact of AI on our profession. And with good reason.

In this short clip from last month's private masterclass for CCT grads, Jamie shares important data that reveals just how — and how fast — things are shifting.

You'll hear:

• The surprising #1 way people are already using AI chatbots in their personal lives

• Why convenience may be the biggest disruptor of all

• And what this all means for the future of coaching, therapy and change-work

This isn't theory. It's happening right now — and the implications are huge.

The good news? There are things human coaches can do that AI never will.

PS: Next Wednesday, 1st October, Jamie is repeating this masterclass — but this time it's open to everyone in the community. You're invited to join live for AI, Coaching & the 3Ps – One Year On: What's Changed, What's Next.

This week's episode is a short extract from a recent Clarity Coaches Tribe call.

It's Jamie's response to a participant's question about the foundation of enrollment conversations — the single most important question you need to be able to answer.

On the surface, it looks simple. But most coaches either miss it completely or don't explore it deeply enough. And the moment you really see it, everything changes.

Maybe you already have a hunch about what the question is… Listen in and find out.

Earlier this month, I shared a private Masterclass with Clarity Coaches graduates, exploring the impact of AI, the shifts we're all living through, and what this means for coaches, awakeners and changeworkers.

This video is a short extract from that session.

In it, I share one of my favourite Buckminster Fuller quotes about humanity being in its "final exam"… and reflect on what that means in these extraordinary times.

I also explore the strange juxtaposition between humanity's greatest powers and our deepest fragility — and why it looks to me like we may be standing on the edge of a very different relationship with each other and the world.

Big love, Jamie
