What if I told you satisfaction wasn't about getting more stuff?

Or achieving more goals.

I know... it sounds counterintuitive.

And yet, as I've been watching the incredible transformations happening in this final year of Scholars, I've noticed something fascinating about satisfaction.

It's about three specific things that most people never put together: deciding again, wanting what you already have, and the way you cultivate your goals.

In this episode, I share how to feel deeply satisfied right now (without settling), why your past decisions might be secretly sabotaging you, and how to want things from a place that feels amazing instead of desperate. This is going to change everything about how you think about satisfaction.

What You Will Discover:

• Why deciding everything again each year keeps you growing and evolving
• The difference between gratitude and wanting what you already have
• How to discover what you truly want versus what others expect
• Why satisfaction doesn't conflict with setting ambitious goals
• The power of conscious living versus defaulting to past patterns
• How to cultivate anticipation instead of scarcity
• Why letting go of past identities opens doors to new possibilities

Who do you think you are?

Have you ever asked yourself that seriously?

Most people have an idea, a story, about who they are and that narrative creates their identity. However, narratives are not absolute truths and you have way more power over yours than you think.

In this episode, you’ll learn what a personal narrative is and why learning how to control yours is one of the most important skills you can cultivate. I walk you through an exercise in uncovering your narrative, in deciding what you want your life and your story to be about, and an exercise in seeing the contrast that all humans naturally have.

You are the main character of your life, so how will you write your story?

What You Will Discover:

• Why learning how to control your narrative is so important.
• How people with similar circumstances can have vastly different lives.
• Why personal narratives are not absolute truths.
• The power of an “I am” thesis.
• An exercise to uncover your current narrative.

When faced with a big change, your brain isn’t going to like it.

Brains like certainty and stability, not the unknown.

So when I announced this would be the last year of Get Coached, many of the students inside had thoughts about what this change would mean for them.

And I get it.

Coaching and teaching inside these containers has been so rewarding and amazing.

And, I cannot wait to see my students surpass me in achieving their impossible goals and in being an example of what’s possible.

In this week’s episode, you’ll learn why you 100% have the ability to surpass your teachers and why you might want to. Hear why leveraging what your teacher knows is helpful, but depending on yourself to embrace change and facilitate growth matters more.

What You Will Discover:

• Why every student can surpass their teacher if they want to.
• A more useful way to view your teachers.
• The benefits of being part of different communities.
• How to become the leader you’re looking for.

How do you talk to yourself when you’ve done something wrong?

Growth, whether it be personal or in our businesses, feels uncomfortable.

It just does.

Pushing your limits and seeing what you are capable of comes with some discomfort.

However, some people don’t let themselves even attempt to grow because they’ve decided they would rather have peace over discomfort.

My guest this week, like so many of you listening, was willing to disturb her peace in order to grow, and the results have been tremendous.

Stacey Boehman is not just one of my favorite people on the planet, she’s also a Master Business Coach for life coaches with multiple highly successful programs. Her journey of going from selling mops in department stores to running an 8-figure business is insanely inspiring, and you can be sure that it came with a lot of discomfort along the way.

Tune in this week as Stacey and I explore the choice many people think they have to make between growth and peace, and why hiding from your dreams doesn’t automatically mean you feel peace instead. We discuss the power of deciding to give something your all, how to handle the discomfort of growth, and we share our experiences of choosing to go all in on our businesses while balancing motherhood.

What You Will Discover:

How we reconcile the discomfort of growth and choosing it anyway.
What peace means to us.
Why the $100K mark in your business is likely the hardest you will ever work.
Why Stacey says trying a little is a lot harder than trying a lot.
Stacey’s insights on running a business post-partum.
What helps Stacey get through the "river of misery."

Newer entrepreneurs work just as hard as the more experienced entrepreneurs, but their results are not the same.

Why?

Tune in this week to learn about the difference between busy work and result work and how you can start creating new results in your life. I encourage you to try new things, see what works and doesn’t work, and change directions if necessary. Remember, if you’re not winning, you’re learning!

If you are a woman who struggles with people pleasing, with making conscious decisions that are solely for you, with the idea of creating wealth, listen in.

I’m joined by the one and only Kara Loewentheil, author of Take Back Your Brain: How a Sexist Society Gets in Your Head--and How to Get It Out.

In this fascinating conversation, Kara and I explore the ways men and women are socialized throughout history, how this socialization impacts how we show up in our lives, and what we can do to take back our brains.

Through the teachings of a lot of amazing leaders, reading all the self-help books, and my own introspection, I came to understand the importance of thought work.

Through thought work, you can access your highest consciousness and make decisions that create the results you’ve always dreamed about. 

In this episode, I share what thought work truly is, how it works, and how mastering it is one of the most freeing experiences a human can have.
