Beyond Words: Why words often fall short (and what to do instead) The Art of Connection: The importance of becoming a connoisseur of connection Fractionation: A fancy word for how Syd Banks used to ease people into the experience of their deeper selves Q: Are you a coach, thought leader, or change-worker looking to boost confidence, enroll clients with more ease and have a bigger impact?

Q: Want to really support others, the world, and yourself through the US election aftermath? With the US election results fresh on everyone’s minds, there’s been a palpable wave of emotions echoing across social media and personal conversations—some are celebrating, while others feel deeply unsettled. Even many folks outside the USA are feeling it, with some conversations turning to confusion, disbelief, and fear. In today’s rapid-fire 7-minute podcast episode, we dive into how to navigate emotionally charged situations—whether you're struggling yourself or supporting someone who is. And even if you're feeling great, there’s an opportunity here to embrace empathy and understanding. Here’s a taste of what we'll cover: How media keeps us hooked by amplifying fear and uncertainty. Emotional reactions like shock, disbelief, grief, fear, and anger—and how they might be showing up. How seeing "separate realities" in this aftermath can help you deepen your understanding of how our human experience works. How the power of deep listening helps us truly understand someone’s world, even if profoundly different from our own. And why there's a huge opportunity for connection here... ... because when we listen for each other’s wisdom, we discover common ground—and that’s where real personal and societal transformation begins. This episode is a recording from one of my advanced programs, where I answered a powerful question from a Clarity Coach. The insights felt especially relevant right now, so I decided to share them with you right away. --- 👉 Share the 3Ps with Impact & Confidence: Get Jamie Smart's Free Scorecard

Hi. I’m Jamie Smart. Welcome to the podcast. This episode is a coaching demo I did with Clarity Coach Jan Harte around weight loss and limiting beliefs. The demo itself took place during my Clarity Advanced Coach & Facilitator Programme, and only lasted 20 minutes, but it’s followed by a 4-minute follow-up I did with Jan a year later (just a few weeks ago). As you’ll hear, the impact of the coaching session was profoundly transformational. Just before we get to that, I wanted to mention that on Friday May 10th, I’m getting together with a group of coaches to look at the fundamentals of belief-change, so you can increase your impact-confidence, dissolve limiting beliefs & transform lives (including your own). Here’s what we’re going to be exploring together:   You’re going to learn the fundamentals of working with limiting beliefs, so you’re standing on solid ground as you discern what’s really going on for your client. As a result, you’ll be able to increase your impact-confidence and make a bigger difference (it’s a lot easier to help someone when you understand the landscape.) As a lovely side-effect, you’ll start seeing through your *own* limiting beliefs so you can create the results that truly matter to you as well as your clients. You’re going to be getting a felt sense of the nature of true identity (this is crucial, because this is one of the main ‘leverage points’ you have to share with your clients). You’ll also be learning the linguistic and sensory structure of limiting beliefs (language is a doorway into your client’s world, so I’ll be showing you specific questions you can ask to uncover what’s been holding them back until now).  You’ll be learning about the paradoxical nature of double-binds, and why most coaches innocently end up reinforcing the bind, rather than dissolving it (true story!)  You’ll learn how to point people to their true identity and their innate capacity for realisation, the keystone for truly transformational impact. People regularly cry tears of relief when you help them see through their perceived limitations, and wake up to the truth of who they really are.   While this one-day workshop will be suitable for coaches and therapists of all skill and experience-levels, it’s going to be of particular interest to experienced coaches who are looking to take their impact to a new level.   There will be several belief-change demonstrations, and everyone will have the opportunity to shift their own most pernicious beliefs. As I mentioned, it’s on Friday May 10th via Zoom, and there’s an earlybird price when you book your place by this Thursday May 2nd. Just go to www.JamieSmart.com/belief to learn more and register now. That’s www.JamieSmart.com/belief    So now to the coaching demo and one-year followup..

Hi. I’m Jamie Smart. Welcome to the podcast. I’ve called this episode, “Coaching in the Midst of Crisis”, and it’s a recording from the Clarity Coaching Experience event we held earlier this month. The theme for the event was “Increasing your Impact Certainty” and it was a beautiful weekend. We had coaches joining us from all around the world, and there was a lovely sense of community, with lots of profound insights. And one of the things we did was I had ‘fireside chat’ conversations with Clarity Coaches who are making a big difference in the world, and I picked their brains about their impact with their clients, and how this understanding has helped them increase that. And my idea for this was that we would be talking shop; the kind of conversation that I have with my colleagues over coffee, and that most people never get to hear. So in this podcast, you’re going to be hearing one of those, a conversation I had with my dear friend and colleague, Mahima Shrestha. Now, you may have seen an amazing conversation I had with Mahima a few years ago when I interviewed her about her experience of the 2015 Nepal earthquake. That was right at the start of her journey as a coach, and since then, she’s developed extensive experience in coaching individuals and organizations through crisis. Mahima works with entrepreneurs, innovators, activists, and changemakers- bringing bright people together to solve complex problems. And you’re going to hear how her certainty about what people have going for them is fundamental to the difference she makes with clients.   Just before we get to that, I wanted to mention that the doors are now open for the September 2023 intake of our flagship Clarity Certification Training programme.    Clarity Certification has recently been accredited by the International Coaching Federation (the ICF) as a provider of Continuous Coach Education, so if you’re already an ICF-certified coach, you can use the programme to earn CCE units. Either way, you can take part in CCT with full confidence that the programme is fully accredited by the ICF as a Continuous Coaching Education provider. And you can save over £4000 when you book your place by the end of March. Just go to www.JamieSmart.com/coach    So now to the episode.

I’m Jamie Smart - welcome to the podcast. I’ve called this episode, “Develop Your Intuition”, and it’s a recording from the ClarityLive! event we held in November. The theme for the event was “Passion, Purpose & Personal Expression” and it was really great. We had people joining us from all around the world, and there was a lovely sense of community, with lots of profound insights. And one of the things we did was I had ‘fireside chat’ conversations with people who are having a big impact in the world, and I picked their brains about what it means to bring your unique expression to life, and how this understanding has helped them do that. And my idea for this was that we would be talking shop; the kind of conversation that I have with my colleagues over coffee, and that most people never get to hear. So in this podcast, you’re going to be hearing one of those, a conversation I had with my dear friend and colleague, Carl Harvey. Carl is the founder of the Abundance Book Club and The Big Life show. And he was also MindValley's head copywriter for a couple of years - Carl's a powerhouse!    Just before we get to that, I wanted to mention that my beloved Emma McDevitt and I are offering a new programme starting in January called the Clarity Professional Programme: Bring Your Unique Expression to Life.   The theme of uncovering and living your unique expression is one that’s very alive for us both, so we’re inspired to share it with a group of explorers.   We’ve created a brief video about the programme and a simple 'unique expression diagnostic' process. Its purpose is to continue deepening your awareness of your unique expression and to help us (me and Emma) get a sense of where you're at in your journey.   If you want to watch the video, do the diagnostic and find out more about the programme, just pop an email to support@jamiesmart.com with the word “video” in the subject line and we’ll get everything over to you. And you can find out more about Carl and his work at www.CarlHarvey.com   So now to the episode.
