Life, Mastered with Molly Claire

Knowing where to turn for help in building your business can be daunting. Not only do you have nearly countless options on how to receive guidance and training, the sheer number of areas in which you may need help can be overwhelming. Sharpening your skills, balancing your life and business, expanding your reach, tailoring your offerings, strengthening your connections… The list goes on and on.  That’s one of the reasons I created the Masterful Coach Collective. In it, we strive to guide coaches to the next right steps for them. We offer help, advice, strategies, assignments and more to help you move your business forward while supporting your life. We tailor help to you, individually, because what is the best for one person may not be the right choice for another. Speaking of which, that’s why in this episode, I cover a Q&A to help you know: Is the Masterful Coach Collective right for you? I want you to know all about it so you can make an informed decision. And I hope you’ll join us soon! “I promise you that as you are in this program, and as we are working together, month after month, you will be a different coach on the other end of this experience… Wherever you are in this journey, I promise I will personalize this experience for you so you can uplevel your coaching.” – Molly Claire What You’ll Learn What aspects are included?

Limiting beliefs can be inherently part of our nature as women. Some of them can come from our upbringing, some from society, and some from experiences as adults in the workplace or business world. Regardless of where they originate, limiting beliefs absolutely must be addressed in order to fully step into our place in the world. To talk about all this, I have invited three amazing women to share on this podcast episode. Each of them stand as examples of women who want to create something big, while remaining committed to honoring themselves, their personal priorities, and impacting the world with good. They really represent the manifesto of The Masterful Coach Collective Community. In the Community, we support one another as we face the common challenges of women entrepreneurs, especially in rising above limiting beliefs. “We believe in supporting women to rise to their potential. That each woman may overcome her limiting beliefs and feel powerful and free. We give permission for each woman to honor her own personal values and priorities. That she may be at peace with her life and herself. We stand together in collaboration. We learn from the best. We support each other to become our best. That each of us may expand in our ability to do good in the world. We believe that self-care is honorable. That women may thrive personally and give their best to others too. We cultivate self-trust, self-knowing, and self-confidence. That each women is powerful enough to stand alone, but in wisdom, she chooses to stand with others in goodness and growth.” – Molly Claire What You’ll Learn The Masterful Coach Collective Community manifesto Collaboration without competition The power and energy of feminine support Ways we drop the ball Bringing life situations into cooperation Find what lights you up Use your voice Do it anyway Contact Info and Recommended Resources Connect with Mikki Gardner Mikki is a Certified Life Coach who helps women become loving, strong, effective co-parents and create a life full of resilience, abundance and joy after divorce. mikkigardner.com Connect with Crystal Hanson Crystal is a Certified Life and Advanced Relationship Coach who specializes in helping women and couples who feel disconnected, or even miserable in their marriage, learn tools to bridge the gap and create the relationships they’ve always wanted. crystalhansencoaching.com Connect with Ashton Barrett Ashton is a Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor and non-diet, weight-inclusive Certified Personal Trainer.

I've seen too many coaches have a nervous breakdown while building their biz, but it DOESN'T have to be that way. This episode talks about this common challenge and HOW to prevent it (or recover...)

Many entrepreneurs feel a heaviness around the topic of money that really can get in the way in business. How you feel about money impacts how you relate to it, and that relationship impacts how much money you make. But there is good news: You can change how you feel about money. You can implement an intentional approach to money by shifting your mindset. And that can result in making more money. That’s why I’ve invited Jamie Berman, Master Certified Mindset Coach and Money Manifestation expert, to give us some powerful insights into taking control of how we think about money. So if you find yourself dreading the financial side of business, if you have a negative relationship with money, if you have anxiety around cash flow… this episode will help set you free! Jamie shares all about how we can create a light, fun and easier relationship with money, and therefore manifest more money. “I also see a lot of ‘I’m not smart enough’, ‘I’m not the person who fits a successful CEO’... I think there are so many versions of that… where we don’t allow ourselves to step into the idea that Me, Myself, I can make money JUST AS I AM. I don’t have to change myself in order to create money.” – Jamie Berman What You’ll Learn See money as a support Redefine loving money Build from abundance rather than lack Make money as yourself Continually coach yourself Shift your mindset Give yourself time Do values work Celebrate changes you’ve already made Don’t rush success Contact Info and Recommended Resources Never Eat Alone by Keith Ferrazzi with Tahl Raz John Gottman resources Connect with Jamie Berman Jamie in her own words… “What was the difference between my first $100K and my second $100K? When I first started out as a coach, I was just like you. Coaching had made a HUGE impact in my life and I loved helping others get their own breakthroughs and transformations! I became a certified holistic health coach, studied spiritual psychology, and then became a master certified coach with the Life Coach School. I got coached, did a ton of inner work and made huge sacrifices, even selling my car to fund my business. All this because I knew what was possible in my life and I was determined to make it happen. And I did. After two years of making close-to-nothing in my business, I decided year three would be my 6-figure year! But let me tell you about that first $100K… I hustled hard that year I was so driven to prove myself and my value, I was running myself ragged I was constantly creating content, showing up on social media and making offers My days were filled with marketing, consult calls, coaching, and more marketing At the end of it all, I hit my revenue goal but I was exhausted and burnt out. I did not become a coach to constantly be exhausted and burnt out. So, I made a new resolution. I was going to hit that same revenue goal but with joy and fun. Here’s what happened with my second $100K… I listened to my intuition and approached my business with a completely different mindset I integrated spiritual practices, belief work and manifestation, allowing me to coach in a way that was more aligned with who I am I manifested more and bigger opportunities I made changes in my business that allowed me to increase my impact and income while working less hours That year, I reached my revenue goal, surpassed it, and did it in a way that felt good. Now I help coaches create more abundance and alignment in their businesses and their lives.” jamieberman.com Get Jamie’s FREE Manifestation for Business Workbook: jamieberman.com/manifestationworkbook Facebook Instagram Connect with Molly Claire Molly specializes in her mom-centric coaching.

When we think of grief, we typically think of grieving the loss of life. However, grief takes many forms, has nearly countless sources, and has no time limit. In fact, a client may be grieving but not realize it because the cause was not a death. But, as humans, we grieve many types of loss. That’s why helping clients through grief of varying degrees and origins is something all coaches do.  To encourage you in this vital work, I invited grief coach, Krista St-Germain to share some of her insights and skills. She begins by relating her personal experiences that led her to grief coaching and then to becoming a coach herself. Then, throughout the episode, we discuss many of the myths, biggest challenges, and nuances about grief and coaching those experiencing grief. We hope this episode leads you both to identifying more forms of grief and to additional resources to help you care for your clients. “They come to you thinking that the thing that happened has power over them. And what we can show them is that: No, actually, they get to choose how they want to feel about this thing that has happened. And that doesn’t mean that we have to choose to be happy. But that helps us start seeing the thing as less powerful and ourselves as more powerful.” – Krista St-Germain What You’ll Learn Krista’s personal experiences Insides versus outsides The biggest challenges when grief coaching Tiptoeing Holding space Observing differently Allowing alternatives to models Uncovering the real struggle Doing better with supporting grief Realizing we all fall in the pool at times Bolstering our client’s power Contact Info and Recommended Resources The Grief Recovery Handbook Krista’s podcast:  Episode #45: For Those Who Love Us Episode #2: Myths of Grief Connect with Krista St-Germain Krista in her own words… “When my husband was killed by a drunk driver, I was devastated. Therapy helped me survive the tidal wave of grief and unfurl myself from the fetal position. I went back to work. Everyone kept telling me how “strong” I was. I acted strong in front of my kids. But inside I felt hollow. All my dreams had included him. I desperately wanted to believe I could still have a happy, fulfilling life but I wasn’t sure how. Then I began to research grief, trauma and healing extensively. I studied cognitive behavioral coaching and read every book I could find. I combined what I learned about Post Traumatic Growth with cognitive science based coaching tools and figured out how to turn my loss into a strategy for growth. I learned to see myself as stronger because of what I’d been through instead of using it as a reason to stop dreaming. I created a new life using small, manageable steps and techniques that made sense. The changes I experienced were so profound I became a Master Certified Life Coach and created a group coaching program for widows like us called Mom Goes On.” CoachingwithKrista.com The Widowed Mom podcast with Krista St-Germain: coachingwithkrista.com/podcast  Moms Go On program – Get a free, private training: coachingwithkrista.com/work-with-me Facebook Instagram support@coachingwithkrista.com Connect with Molly Claire Molly specializes in her mom-centric coaching.

Your freebie (or lead magnet or opt-in) needs to be steller. You want that first touchpoint to be high quality and offer value. After all, it shapes the initial feel for who you are for your potential clients. But it’s easy to make mistakes in your offer and that first impression is made. So how can you be sure your freebie will attract the right clients and have the positive effect you seek? In our quest toward greater business mastery, I want to share 5 freebie mistakes, and the easy solutions for them. I encourage you to listen and see if any of these spark a tweak or two to improve your offer. Or if you don’t currently have a freebie or lead magnet, I hope this encourages and guides you to create an impactful one. “When you are building your freebie and creating it… if you’re focused on what’s going to make me look good, what’s going to make me look very knowledgeable, what’s going to make me really look like an expert… you’re missing out on asking the question, ‘What is my client feeling and experiencing when they come to me? What does my client actually need here?’” – Molly Claire What You’ll Learn Who needs a freebie (lead magnet / opt-in) What a freebie does 5 freebie mistakes and how to fix them Looking good Giving too much too soon Following trends Overdelivering Helping everyone Contact Info and Recommended Resources Connect with Molly Claire Molly specializes in her mom-centric coaching.

Freedom from limiting beliefs is paramount to moving forward in life. As coaches, it’s our job to help our clients shake loose from old beliefs that hold them back, and embrace new beliefs that move them forward. Since this touches every area of our clients’ lives, you are likely to find areas coming up in your coaching that are not what you’re actually focused on. One of those areas is parenting. Addressing it as you work on other focuses is special and there are some keys to helping moms, in particular. In this episode, I share 6 keys to coaching moms. Now, even if you don’t specifically work with moms, this episode is still for you. Everything I share can also be correlated to coaching dads and individuals who are not parents. The main focus is tailoring your coaching to fit your client, to meet their personal needs and goals in business, in life, and (for many) in parenting. "There is inevitably going to be fears and insecurities there… [But] all of the things they think are a challenge, are a frustration… are there for them and provide opportunities for them to see what healing they need to experience… what beliefs they would do well to release.” – Molly Claire What You’ll Learn 4 reasons why surface level work can be powerful When surface level work is a distraction Self-work: The foundation for all relationships Individual knowing creates connection, not disconnection The challenge of ‘The Mom Role’ Validation over dismissiveness Contact Info and Recommended Resources Connect with Molly Claire Molly specializes in her mom-centric coaching.
