#063 - Living a Beautiful Life with Jan and Chip Chipman

Welcome to the podcast. I’m delighted to present this episode, “Living a Beautiful Life” with Jan and Chip Chipman. The theme for the ClarityLive conference it was recorded at was “How to make 2022 your most beautiful year yet” and it was really lovely. We had people joining us from all around the world, and there was a great sense of community, with lots of profound realisations.    And one of the highlights of the weekend was my session with my dear friends, mentors, colleagues and collaborators, Jan and Chip Chipman. Jan, Chip and I met nearly 13 years ago and have been friends ever since. We’ve run retreats together in the Canary Islands and mainland Spain. They spent years being mentored by Sydney Banks, and one of the things you’re going to love about this conversation is the feeling they bring. Chip also tells me favourite Syd Banks story in this session, so I hope you enjoy that too.   Just before we get to that, I wanted to mention that the doors are about to close for the final intake of  our flagship Clarity Certification Training programme. I say ‘final’ because as you may have heard, I’ve decided to stop all business activities except for delivering programmes that I already have in the calendar for 2022. And I’m doing this so I have the time to write the second edition of my book CLARITY, and to create the space for what’s going to come next. You know, when I first came to the principles, it was relatively unknown, and very few people knew how to share this understanding with others. And it was clear to me that we needed a cadre of highly-skilled coaches, trainers and change-workers who could share this understanding and have a big impact with their clients.    Ten years on, and we’ve trained over 300 Clarity Coaches and I couldn’t be more delighted. We now have that cadre of highly-skilled people with a deep understanding in place. Now it’s time to get these principles out into the world in a bigger way, and I need the space to do that, so…    This is the last time I’m going to be delivering Clarity Certification Training. 30 of the 36 places are now taken, so there are 6 places left as I speak. And I’m really looking for leaders who want to take this understanding out into the world at a time when there’s never been a greater need for it. And for the first time ever, I’ve added a massive bonus package worth over £13,000, including the chance to sit in on a 3-day coaching intensive with a corporate client, later this year.   And Jan and Chip Chipman are two of the teachers who do Masterclasses on the CCT programme, as well as mentoring our Advanced Clarity Coaches.    So if you want to join me for the last ever Clarity Certification Training, go to www.JamieSmart.com/coach   So now to the episode.
