    252. From Zero Clients to Fully Booked: A Conversation with Master Coach Heidi Allsop

    What does it really take to become a better coach? It starts with being willing to do the work on yourself. When you learn to trust your own clarity and believe that you’re capable of creating the growth you want—as a coach, in your relationship, or in any other area of your life— you can begin helping your clients do the same.

    In this episode, I’m joined by master certified coach Heidi Allsop, who shares how Master Coach Training helped her confidently build her coaching business and step fully into her purpose. You’ll hear how the self-trust she cultivated in the program changed the way she approaches her work with moms raising teenage boys.

    We talk about what it really means to own your expertise as a coach and why being an expert doesn’t mean having all the answers. Heidi shares how she learned to trust her clients’ inner wisdom rather than feel responsible for telling them what to do. That’s what becomes possible when you truly trust yourself as a coach: you can step into your expertise and help your clients uncover the answers that are already within them.

    Continuing education is an important part of any profession, and coaching is no different. Master Coach Training can help you deepen your coaching skills, strengthen your self-leadership, and expand your ability to support your clients. Whether you feel like something is missing or simply want to become the best coach you can be, there is always another level of growth available to you. When you choose to uplevel your skills, the benefits extend beyond your coaching. It can change your life, too. Let’s dive in!

    What you’ll learn:

    • How developing your self-trust can help you become more confident in coaching and business
    • How nervous system education can change the way you approach coaching conversations
    • Why understanding grief can be especially important when coaching mothers
    • How continuing your education can reveal gaps in your skillset you didn’t even know existed
    • Why coaching skills are important for anyone in a leadership position to have

    251. The Life Mastery Method Part 6: Your Relationship with Yourself Is the Key to Real Transformation

    Before you hit "play," make sure you've listened to Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, and Part 5 of the series!

    What becomes possible when you strengthen your relationship with yourself? When you know yourself, trust yourself, and feel deeply connected to who you are, you gain the clarity and momentum to move toward what you truly want. A strong relationship with yourself is about becoming comfortable and confident in who you are. That foundation can change not only how you lead your own life, but how you show up for others.

    This episode is the final in my 6-part series teaching you the Life Mastery Method. So far, we’ve explored whether change is possible, learned how to interrupt patterns that keep you stuck, talked about the importance of your emotional world, examined how the nervous system shapes the way we work toward change, and looked at how to create action plans that actually work. Today, we’re bringing it all together by exploring the thread that runs through every part of the Life Mastery Method: your relationship with yourself. I've also created a companion worksheet to help you follow along with this episode, which you can download here.

    Many of us don't really know what it means to have a good relationship with ourselves. In this episode, we’re taking a closer look at what it means to truly know yourself, build self-trust and self-connection, and nurture your relationship with yourself through greater attention, compassion, and care. Because when it comes to creating change, your relationship with yourself is the key to the life you want.

    I hope this series on the Life Mastery Method has given you a deeper understanding of what it takes to make a real transformation in your life. If you want to explore this work more deeply, I’d love to have you in Master Coach Training. We cover everything from these six episodes and so much more. Send in your application, and we can talk about whether it’s the right fit for you and the change you want to create as a coach, in your own life, or both.

    What you’ll learn:

    • How not all training programs or coaches actually cultivate a strong relationship with self and how to tell the difference
    • What positive self-talk really means and why building a good relationship with yourself goes far beyond simply saying nice things to yourself
    • Why knowing yourself is so important and how clarity about who you are and what you want creates momentum
    • Three specific things that indicate a good relationship with yourself and how you can begin to strengthen them
    • A powerful question we discuss on day one of Master Coach Training that you can ask yourself regularly

    You can read the full show notes here.

    250. The Life Mastery Method Part 5: How to Create Effective Action Strategies

    Before you hit "play," make sure you've listened to Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, and Part 4 of the series!

    Taking action toward something can feel so good. It gives us a sense of moving forward and getting closer to what we want, but at the same time, it can feel discouraging when we fall off our plan. When that happens, the key isn’t simply taking more action. It’s learning how to follow through on your goals using action strategies that work with your mind, emotions, nervous system, and real life.

    This episode is the fifth in my 6-part series teaching you the Life Mastery Method. So far, we’ve explored whether change is possible, learned how to interrupt patterns that keep you stuck, talked about the importance of your emotional world, and examined how the nervous system shapes the way we work toward change. Today, we’re talking about your relationship with taking action. You’ll learn how to create action plans that account for the obstacles that may get in your way, understand why some plans are easier to follow through on than others, and use strategies that support you when things don’t go exactly as planned. I've also created a companion worksheet to help you follow along with this episode, which you can download here.

    So, why do even the best action plans sometimes fall apart? Taking new action requires energy and effort, and when something feels difficult, it’s easy to assume it will always feel that way. Add in harmful beliefs about yourself and old patterns, and it becomes even harder to follow through. In this episode, you’ll learn how to anticipate the obstacles that could get in your way and create strategies for them ahead of time.

    Your action plan doesn’t have to unfold perfectly, and changing the plan doesn’t mean you’ve failed. The goal is to stay connected to what you ultimately want while giving yourself the flexibility to reassess, redirect, and keep moving forward. Next week, in the final part of the series, we’re diving into the key to making any transformation possible: your relationship with yourself.

    What you’ll learn:

    • Why understanding your mind, emotions, nervous system, and behavior patterns can change the way you approach taking action
    • Why new habits and behaviors require more energy at first, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t working
    • How to anticipate obstacles that may interfere with your plan and create strategies to help you when they arise
    • Examples of action strategies for better health, wealth, and relationships and how to stay on track with each one
    • Why it’s important to remember that your action plan is a pathway to your goal, not the destination

    249. The Life Mastery Method Part 4: Your Nervous System Is Not the Enemy

    Before you hit "play," make sure you've listened to Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3 of the series!

    How often do you find yourself in a stress state—highly activated, reactive, and overwhelmed—when it comes to a certain area of your life? My guess is that when this happens, you don’t like how you feel and wish you could feel differently. But that activation is a signal that there’s something in your life you need to pay attention to, and learning to understand your nervous system can become a powerful tool for creating change.

    This episode is the fourth in my 6-part series teaching you the Life Mastery Method. So far, we’ve explored whether change is possible, learned how to interrupt patterns that keep you stuck, and talked about the importance of your emotional world. Today, we’re turning our attention to the nervous system and how it shapes the way we work toward change. Because your nervous system is not the enemy; it’s an essential part of moving you towards growth. I've also created a companion worksheet to help you follow along with this episode, which you can download here.

    Instead of assuming that every uncomfortable activation needs to be regulated away, I invite you to get curious about what your nervous system is trying to tell you. There is a difference between a stress response that needs support and an alert that something in your life isn’t aligning with your needs and values. Learning to make this distinction can help you better understand your patterns and practice responding rather than reacting when challenging situations arise. Your nervous system is the backdrop of all your thoughts and feelings, and it’s working constantly to keep you alive, protect you, and help you navigate the world around you. I’m so grateful for my nervous system, and I hope that by the end of this episode, you will be too.

    There are two more parts left in my Life Mastery Method series, so make sure you tune in next week when we talk about action strategies that actually work.

    What you’ll learn:

    • Why your nervous system isn’t the enemy and how healthy sympathetic activation can actually mobilize you to take action
    • The difference between the old brain and the new brain: one is designed to prioritize survival while the other gives you the ability to plan and problem-solve
    • How to use discernment when your nervous system is activated by asking whether your response is coming from past fears or alerting you to a real problem
    • How building nervous system resilience can make it easier to access and understand your emotions
    • Why practicing the ways you want to show up can help turn positive behaviors into automatic patterns over time

    248. The Life Mastery Method Part 3: Your Emotional World is the Key to Real Success

    Before you hit "play," make sure you've listened to Part 1 and Part 2 of the series!

    If you've ever tried to think your way out of your emotions, you already know it doesn't work. Instead, you end up closed off and disconnected, not just from what you feel, but from your deepest intuition and inner knowing. When you truly get to know your emotional world, the mindset shifts you've been seeking finally become possible.

    This episode is the third in my 6-part series teaching you the Life Mastery Method. First, we explored the question: Can people really change? Can someone who repeats patterns over and over truly transform their life? The answer is yes, and last week we focused specifically on interrupting patterns that keep you stuck. Today, we’re talking about all things emotions, because understanding your emotional world is truly the key to better relationships and the life you want to create. I've also created a companion worksheet to help you follow along with this episode, which you can download here.

    We'll explore what you may have learned about emotions growing up, how a lack of emotional support can shape the way you navigate life today, and why so many people become disconnected from their emotional world. I'll also explain why your emotions provide clarity about what you want, what you need, and why you're stuck.

    Your emotional world has the power to transform your relationships, your wellbeing, and the way you experience life. That’s why understanding your emotions makes lasting change possible. Come back next week for Part 4 of the Life Mastery Method series as we dive into the nervous system.

    What you’ll learn:

    • The language of your emotional world and how messages like "you're too sensitive" or "just stay positive" can shape your relationship with emotions
    • How emotional neglect can lead to coping strategies that keep you disconnected from yourself and a book to help you learn more about it
    • An example that illustrates how avoiding your own emotions can limit your ability to support the people you love
    • Why emotional development is crucial for growth and why just thinking differently doesn't work
    • Four questions to ask yourself that will help you stop fighting your feelings and start building self-trust

    247. The Life Mastery Method Part 2: Mind Mastery and the Power of Interrupting Patterns

    Before you hit "play," make sure you've listened to Part 1 of the series!

    You've probably heard that changing your thoughts changes your life. But what if your thoughts aren't actually where change begins? There’s no doubt that mindset work plays an important role in coaching, but lasting transformation starts by interrupting the patterns beneath your thinking.

    This episode is the second in my 6-part series teaching you the Life Mastery Method. Last week, we explored the question: Can people really change? Can someone who repeats patterns over and over truly transform their life? The answer is yes, and this week, we're focusing specifically on interrupting those patterns that are keeping you—or your clients—stuck. I've also created a companion worksheet to help you follow along with this episode, which you can download here.

    Our brain, emotions, nervous system, and behaviors all live in patterns, and some of the biggest changes in ourselves and in society come from interrupting those patterns. I see it in the women I work with who are prioritizing their well-being, changing relationship dynamics, and stepping into greater financial independence. I see it in the men I work with who are allowing themselves to cry and fully experience their emotions. Changing patterns is possible, and learning to interrupt the patterns that no longer serve you is one of the missing keys to the greater experience of life we're all craving.

    Today, I'll walk you through four different ways to interrupt your patterns so you can experience more peace, greater alignment with your values, and a deeper sense of who you are and your worth. Next week, we'll go even deeper into the emotional side of the Life Mastery Method and discover why learning to work with your emotions is one of the most powerful ways to grow.

    You can read the full show notes here.

    What you’ll learn:

    • The way I teach mindset work and why it's likely different from what you've encountered before
    • How patterns aren't inherently negative and why strengthening healthy patterns is part of growth
    • Why mindset work and pattern interruption are connected, but why mindset alone isn't enough
    • Why using thinking to avoid your feelings keeps you stuck and how to interrupt that pattern
    • How life mastery isn't possible unless we learn to connect with our emotional selves

    246. The Life Mastery Method Part 1: Can People Really Change?

    Can people really change? It's a question we've all asked. Whether you've watched someone repeat the same self-sabotaging patterns, or you've struggled to transform your own life, there are times when real, lasting change can feel impossible.

    This episode is the first in my 6-part series teaching you the Life Mastery Method, and the first thing I want you to know is that change is possible. Anyone can change their life for the better, including you, and today we’re exploring what that really means and the circumstances needed for change to happen. I've also created a companion worksheet to help you follow along with this episode, which you can download here.

    Change doesn't come from mindset alone, even though your thoughts are an important part of the process. Lasting change happens when you understand your mind, emotions, nervous system, and how they all work together. Transformation can feel difficult because we often focus on changing our thoughts without realizing that our emotional world and sense of safety play an equally important role.

    This is just the beginning of the journey, and I can't wait to dive deeper into the Life Mastery Method over the coming weeks. Let's get started!

    What you’ll learn:

    • A meaningful conversation I had with my son that reminded me why lasting change is always possible
    • How the Transtheoretical Model views change as an ongoing process rather than a single event
    • Why understanding your emotional patterns and nervous system is a powerful part of transformation
    • How your relationship with yourself is the most crucial piece of creating change
    • Why your environment matters more than willpower when it comes to lasting change

    245. The Ripple Effect: Changing Lives One Meal at a Time with Lisa Stender

    Giving back doesn't just change someone else's life–it changes yours too. When you make an impact on the lives of others, you often walk away with something just as meaningful.

    In this conversation, I'm joined by Lisa Stender, COO of Feed My Starving Children. The organization has provided billions of nutritious meals to children around the world through volunteers, and after volunteering myself, I wanted to share their mission with you. Lisa gives us a behind-the-scenes look at how Feed My Starving Children is helping communities overcome hunger and build pathways toward long-term stability one meal at a time.

    While access to food, education, and resources differs around the world, we are all connected by our humanity. Every parent wants their child to thrive, and every person wants to believe that something better is possible. The reminder that we are far more alike than we are different is one of the most important takeaways from this conversation.

    Whether you're looking for a simple way to make an impact or you want to experience the benefits of volunteering for yourself, this episode will leave you inspired by what can happen when you give back to your community and to those around the world. Because service transforms both the people receiving help and the people offering it. Let's dive in!

    What you’ll learn:

    • How one meal from Feed My Starving Children contains all the nutrients someone needs for an entire day
    • What hunger is really like and how it affects children's health, development, and learning
    • What a typical volunteer with Feed My Starving Children is like and what you can do in just a couple of hours
    • The benefits of volunteering and why coming together as a community creates a greater impact
    • Why helping others can transform your own life as much as the lives of those you serve

    244. Progress Not Perfection: Lessons from a Sobriety Journey with Jensen Rapp

    One day at a time, one practice at a time, one decision at a time. That’s how you create the life you want. There’s no shortcut, whether you’re changing your relationship to your work, communicating better in your relationships, or on a sobriety journey. This episode is a reminder that you can do it.

    Today, I'm excited to have a guest from my past. I recently reconnected with Jensen Rapp, whom I hadn't seen in years, because he published a workbook to help people begin and stay on a sobriety journey. He's here to share his story and the practices that have helped him maintain 15 years of sobriety after 16 years of drinking every day.

    What we talk about in this episode doesn’t just apply to alcoholism. If you’ve experienced any type of addiction, or you’ve become aware of certain habits that are keeping you from living your healthiest, most fulfilling life, this is for you. No matter what your struggle is, making a change comes down to so many of the same principles you’ll hear Jensen talk about. We explore how you can make decisions that are in your best interests, truly be with yourself in the good, the bad, and the ugly, and support yourself in your growth through it all.

    ​There is hope and possibility in any situation you’re facing right now. No matter how long you’ve done something, no matter how deep you are, there is always the opportunity for change and support to help you get there. Let’s dive in.

    What you’ll learn:

    • How to find your “X-factor” and think about what your life would look like without it
    • How to handle your emotions when they come back after being numb for so long
    • Several daily practices to help you process your emotions and be more present in your life
    • The “think twice” philosophy that Jensen practices every day to live with more intention
    • Why it’s important that you don’t make the decision to change until you feel ready

    You can read the full show notes here.

    About Jensen Rapp

    Jensen Rapp is an artist and author. He is originally from Utah and currently lives in New Orleans. He has an AA degree in art, and is a Certified Graphic Designer. He plays drums and produced a short film with his father. He has 15 years of sobriety and is 47 years old.

    If you've been wondering whether your business will ever really get off the ground, or sometimes feel like you're the only one struggling, this conversation is for you.

    In this episode, I talk to my friend and colleague Jennie Lakenan about overcoming fear, building a business, and continuing to move forward even when life feels messy. As a web designer, certified StoryBrand Guide, and certified life coach who has built more than 150 websites over the last eight years, Jennie combines design, messaging, and coaching to help business owners navigate growth and the challenges of putting themselves out there.

    You'll hear Jennie's story of overcoming a long-standing fear of driving one small step at a time, and how you can apply that same method to business growth. We also discuss life balance, how Jennie approached growing her family while being the primary breadwinner, and why progress often comes from moving forward even when you don’t feel completely ready.

    Whether you're facing a fear, contemplating a big decision, or trying to grow your business without expecting too much of yourself, Jennie's journey will remind you that small steps can add up more than you imagine.

    What you’ll learn:

    • How Jennie made the decision to pursue her business full-time while raising young children
    • Why an element of trust or faith is essential when making decisions and how it can look different for everyone
    • How Jennie worked through her fear of driving without expecting herself to overcome it all at once
    • Why the “go big” approach isn’t always the right choice for sustainable business growth
    • Practical business advice to help you clarify your messaging and let go of perfection

    242. Nervous System Regulation Doesn't Need to be Complicated with Dr. Kathleen Kelley

    When people think about stress management, it’s often through the lens of “getting rid of stress.” But stress itself isn’t the problem, and in many ways, it actually helps move us forward. The problem is staying stuck in stress all day long without giving your body moments to recover. Learning how to bring yourself back to center before overwhelm takes over is essential, and it starts with nervous system regulation practices you can easily do every day.

    My guest today is Dr. Kathleen Kelley, a professor of physical therapy, board-certified neurological clinical specialist, certified yoga and meditation teacher, and life coach. She draws on her extensive experience and education in her coaching practice, helping busy clinicians and high-achieving professionals use simple regulation tools to feel more grounded, calm, and in control of their nervous systems.

    In this episode, we discuss Dr. Kelley’s many practical nervous system regulation techniques, why stress release matters more than avoiding stress altogether, and the connection between regulation, emotions, and creating intentional change in your life.

    This conversation is an invitation to notice how often you give yourself moments of pause, care, and reconnection throughout the day, and to consider how you may be able to give yourself more. The key to a more spacious life is practicing these small moments of regulation and self-connection one day at a time. Let’s get started!

    What you’ll learn:

    • Simple nervous system regulation tools and techniques that can be used on the fly
    • Why nervous system regulation happens through small moments of reconnecting with yourself throughout the day
    • How taking care of yourself helps you feel better while also modeling regulation for others
    • The neuroscience behind why dysregulation cuts you off from clear thinking
    • How manifesting works as a combination of attention, intention, and aligned action that primes the nervous system
