Descripción

This episode is a recap of my two recent interviews with Jessica Burgio and Kristeen Barker—and I had to sit down and talk this through with you because both of these women have built incredible success… just in completely different ways. Early on, Jessica was blessed to have people continually see potential in her that she didn’t fully see in herself yet. And instead of brushing that off or playing small, she leaned into it. That led to her joining the right rooms and surrounding herself with the right people that helped to launch her various careers As Jessica's awareness pushed her into bigger rooms, more conversations, more opportunities, she realized that needed to create these rooms for women everywhere. And so her coaching business took off! Kristeen’s story is completely different… and honestly, just as powerful. She followed the path. She did everything she was “supposed” to do as she prepared to be a doctor and specialist. She put in the years, the work, the education… and when she finally got to the end, she just knew—this doesn’t feel right. There had to be more. And instead of listening to what the so-called “experts” told her she had to do next… she had the courage to say no to that path and forge a brazen new one forward. She didn’t abandon what she built—she expanded it. And now? She’s not only a practicing nephrologist, she’s also creating entirely new rooms for other doctors to learn in… building courses, teaching, and helping them pass their exams and grow in ways that didn’t exist before. Two completely different paths. Same result: massive success. And this is where I’m going to challenge you a little… if you’re not putting yourself in the right rooms, around the right people, you’re cutting yourself off from opportunities you don’t even know exist yet. There isn’t one right way. There isn’t one perfect path. But if they can build what they’ve built? You can too.

episode Heidi Koch: Reclaim The Woman In The Mirror artwork

Heidi Koch: Reclaim The Woman In The Mirror

What happens when you’ve spent years making accommodations, supporting everyone else, and building a life that looks successful… but somewhere along the way, you stop recognizing yourself? In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Heidi Koch — aesthetic medicine physician, speaker, and the woman behind Reclaim Your Reflection — for a powerful conversation about identity, reinvention, limiting beliefs, and the courage it takes to pursue what is still calling you. Heidi shares how her divorce became a turning point that led her to pause, reflect, and begin reconnecting with who she really was and what she wanted her life to look like. We talk about career pivots, fear, the beliefs we accidentally carry for years, and why so many women need to stop long enough to ask: Who am I now, and what do I actually want? If you’ve been feeling the pull toward something more but fear, judgment, or old beliefs keep getting loud, this conversation will remind you that you are allowed to pivot, reclaim yourself, and keep going.

You’re Not Confused. You’re Afraid.

Be honest… are you really confused about your next step, or are you avoiding the decision? Because asking everyone for opinions, reading another book, listening to another podcast, and downloading one more freebie to help you “decide” may actually just be procrastination dressed up as preparation. In this episode, we’re talking about how to stop stalling, connect to the woman you say you want to become, and finally take action toward the life, career, or business you know you’re capable of creating. Female Realtors ready to break through to their next level can apply for my mastermind in the show notes. Women in other industries can reach out for one-on-one coaching.   Interested in The $4M → $10M+ Agent Mastermind, click HERE [https://carelifecoaching.com/agent-mastermind] for more info.

Stop Chasing Your Goals So Hard You Miss Your Life

I’ve been doing an audit of my life lately, and I want to share something that’s been heavy on my heart. Y’all know I am ambitious. I’m a strong, independent woman, and I will always encourage other women to find their audacity, chase what they want, and create a life that feels powerful and free. But today’s episode is about something just as important: not missing the real moments while we’re pursuing our goals. This exact moment in your life will only happen once. Miss it, and it’s gone. So in this short episode, I’m encouraging you to pause. To audit where you need more breathing room. To enjoy the scenery. To create the moments before they pass you by… while still going for the goal. I hope this one speaks to you, and I hope you share it with someone who needs the reminder. It’s a short and beautiful life. Don’t forget to pause long enough to actually live it.   Get your FREE life changing journal prompts here: https://carelifecoaching.com/free-journaling-prompts

episode 4 Massive Questions to Wake You Up and Light That Fire artwork

4 Massive Questions to Wake You Up and Light That Fire

Are you actually living the life you want… or are you still performing the version of yourself that keeps everyone else comfortable? In this episode, I’m asking four massive questions that are not fluffy, surface-level journal prompts. These are the questions that make you stop scrolling, grab a pen, and get honest with yourself. Do you really know who you are? Do you actually like yourself? Do you trust yourself enough to take the next step? And do you know why the hell this next version of your life matters so much? Because here’s the truth: a lot of women are exhausted. Exhausted from shrinking. Exhausted from playing nice. Exhausted from living by rules they didn’t even write. And at some point, you have to decide: am I going to keep making myself smaller so other people feel safe… or am I finally going to take control of my own life? You are the writer, director, and producer of your life. Start with these four journal prompts. Be brutally honest with yourself. Then share this episode with the friend who is tired of playing small and needs the reminder that she gets to write a bigger story, too. This one may hit a nerve. Good. That probably means it’s exactly what you needed.   Get your FREE journal prompts here: https://carelifecoaching.com/free-journaling-prompts
