Whew, this episode was much harder than I had anticipated.

You’ve heard me coach my clients and members of the Speaking Your Brand community on this podcast.

On-air coaching calls are some of the most popular episodes because we go deep and you get to hear what it’s like to be in a coaching session.

After hearing Geraldine Carter be interviewed by Jodi Flynn on Geraldine’s podcast (flipping roles), I had the bright idea to have Geraldine interview me. (Both of these amazing women have been on this podcast: Geraldine in episode 36 and Jodi in episode 26.)

Except I decided to go beyond a standard interview and asked Geraldine to coach me on “thinking bigger” for myself and for Speaking Your Brand (the name of her podcast is “She Thinks Big” and Geraldine is great at drawing that out of her guests and clients).

Well, little did I know that by the end of the conversation, I would feel so incredibly raw and vulnerable. (I have a new-found appreciation for those of you who do on-air coaching calls!)

It took a lot for me to record and release episode 92, where I deconstructed my TEDx talk from 2016 and talked about, for the first time, how I had messed it up.

Now, you’ll hear in this episode:

  • Your “why” may become clear after you start doing something
  • Why it matters when women aren’t visible and don’t have a seat at the table
  • What I see in the women I’ve had as clients – you may not recognize this about yourself either
  • Where I get stuck when “thinking bigger” (you may do this too)
  • How Geraldine gently nudges me out of my default process-driven mind and into my heart – and the a-ha moments that come from this
  • Questions you can ask yourself to think bigger
  • The clarity that happens when we go deep and have a guide/coach to help us
