The Nancy Levin Show

If you identify with being a people-pleaser, a peacekeeper, or a conflict-avoider you likely get your sense of worthiness by what you do for, and give to, others. However, today, I invite you to give yourself permission to invest in yourself. Whether you’re already a life coach, or aspire to be one, or if you want to enhance your current career with life coaching skills, you may still be holding yourself back from saying yes to YOU. In this episode,  I’m here to support you in giving to yourself as well.

Pop the champagne, because my new book—The Art of Change: 8 Weeks to Making a Meaningful Shift in Your Life—is here!

My sixth book, The Art of Change, comes out next week. The Art of Change is a guided journal and proven roadmap for making the choices and taking the actions to support the vision and change you desire in your life. It’s completely different from anything I’ve ever written, and as a lifelong journaler, it’s been my dream come true to create this journal for you. In this episode I share a bit about my own author journey and how I got to where I am today. And if you’re interested in The Art of Change, you can grab your copy at nancylevin.com/journal.

I used to see myself as an author and a coach, until Karen Sergeant encouraged me to step into the role of CEO. As a result, I’m no longer a bottleneck in my own business—plus, I have more time to do the most important tasks that only I can do. Karen is full of amazing advice like this. She worked in Silicon Valley during the dot-com boom, then worked in counterterrorism for years after 9/11. Today, she’s a growth strategist and advisory COO who helps businesses grow - and survive the growth spurts that can sometimes feel like  too much for a new business to handle. Tune in to hear her advice on scaling your business sanely and sustainably.

In today’s episode, I talk with Jude Charles. As a documentary producer, he’s produced stories for the likes of Google, Steve Harvey, and dozens of visionary CEOs. He’s also the author of Dramatic Demonstration, where he lays out his roadmap to leveraging compelling stories to grow your business. Together, we talk about how he got started as a business owner, the things he looks for in a compelling story, and how a serious brush with burnout helped him to learn to better cope with the stress of running your own business.

Do you feel the sting of an insult more powerfully than you feel the joy of praise? Are you constantly scanning for what’s wrong, instead of what’s right? If so, you may be experiencing the negativity bias—the psychological phenomenon that causes negative experiences to have a greater impact on our brains than positive or neutral ones. Negativity bias affects our lives in so many sneaky ways—including our relationships, our motivation to complete a task, and our decision-making. In today’s episode, I share some strategies we can all use to manage our minds and focus on the brighter side of life.

In today’s unscripted live coaching episode, I coach Jennifer about relationships, and more specifically, how it feels to be happily single in middle age after a lifetime of being in serious romantic relationships. Is it better to push yourself back into dating and gain the safety and companionship of a partner—at the risk of losing yourself? Or stay single and live a creatively fulfilling life, at the cost of feeling alone and sexually unfulfilled? Then I coach Natalie about situations in which your truth is going to hurt or disappoint someone else—and how to be more trusting and open with our loved ones in a way that still feels safe and true to yourself.
