#97 - Boost Your Coaching Impact: Listening Beyond the Story

Have you noticed how a coaching session can turn into a Netflix mini-series in about thirty seconds? Your client starts describing what happened, the cast of characters grows, sub-plots multiply… and before you know it, you're as tangled in the narrative as they are. When we get lost in the story, it's hard to help them find the way out. In this week's short clip I share the mindset shift that keeps me from being "hypnotised by the content" and lets me hear what's really going on. A few hints of what's inside: - The unexpected move I make before a client even finishes their first sentence. - A "prehistoric" listening lens that slices straight through any story. - Three simple words that open the door to genuine insight. - This quick listen might change the way you hear every conversation.

#96 - True Identity: The Story That Changed Everything

This week for the podcast, I'm sharing something profoundly meaningful to me - an extract from a 2020 workshop on the topic of True Identity featuring two extraordinary mentors and dear friends, Chip and Jan Chipman. At the end of last year, I received the sad news that Chip had passed away. Chip and his wife Jan have been a profound influence in my life and understanding of the principles behind clarity. Their insights into "the beautiful feeling" and "who you really are" continue to shape the way I live, coach, and share this understanding with others. Towards the end of this clip, Chip shares one of my all-time favorite stories—the moment he and Jan realized they were destined to share the principles with the world. It's a story that has sparked deep insights for so many, and I wanted to make it accessible to everyone in our community. In this session, we explore: The profound connection between "the beautiful feeling" and understanding your true identity. How realizing the beauty and innocence within yourself opens the door to seeing it in others. The power of listening deeply and letting life guide you to what's next. And much, much more. The live participants asked some incredibly powerful questions that sparked remarkable insights throughout the session. This episode is an opportunity to reconnect with the wisdom and intelligence within you—and to reflect on what truly matters. I hope this conversation touches you as deeply as it has touched me—and that it inspires new insights into your own journey.

#93 - Connect With Any Audience (The Hidden Key)

👉 Get your free Inner Stressbuster + a shot of Clarity every Friday. Subscribe now: JamieSmart.com This week I want to share a short clip from the advanced workshop I ran last month, "Speaking from the Heart," where I tell the story of a crucial lesson I learned from one of Milton Erickson's students. Milton Erickson is one of my heroes. He's widely regarded as the father of modern hypnotherapy and was often referred to as the "Wizard of the Desert" because of his extraordinary ability to create profound transformation. In this short recording, you'll discover: - The surprising "real secret" behind Erickson's legendary transformational impact (hint: it's not his famous language skills). - What Erickson communicated that allowed people to experience deep, lasting transformation without trying to "fix" them. - The subtle but powerful message you send to your audience, depending on how comfortable you are with yourself. This insight has dramatically shifted how I approach speaking and working with groups—it's a fundamental key to making a real impact. Big love, Jamie

#92 - Reality, Transformation, and Mastery – with Dr. Joseph Riggio

👉 Get your free Inner Stressbuster + a shot of Clarity every Friday. Subscribe now: JamieSmart.com - This week, I'm excited to share a fascinating conversation with my good friend and colleague, Dr. Joseph Riggio. Joseph and I have been friends for over 25 years, often exploring deep questions about human potential, transformation, and what it takes to live a truly inspired life. Recently, Joseph sent me a thought-provoking message from sunny Florida, challenging me to reflect on the relationship between our inner perceptions and external reality. He asked: "How do we reconcile the 3Ps concept that 'it's all just thought' with the undeniable external feedback we constantly receive from the world around us?" (If you've been following my work over the past decade, you may have noticed that I tend to avoid the phrase "just thought"—and for good reason.) Joseph's question sparked an insightful conversation between us, giving me a chance to clarify my particular understanding of Sydney Banks' teachings, as well as to explore the profound practical implications of how we perceive and navigate reality. I'm delighted to share our recorded discussion as this week's podcast episode. Here are a few highlights from our conversation: Why transformation is always ontologically based and embodied (and what that means in practical terms). How our experience of reality is essentially a simulation—and how deeply understanding the "rules" of this simulation can profoundly impact your life. The critical difference between transformation and mastery—and why confusing the two can seriously limit your growth. Why direct engagement with reality is essential for genuine insight and meaningful change. We also explored the intersection between my approach (informed by the Three Principles) and Joseph's work, which integrates NLP, hypnosis, and his unique "MythoSelf Process." One thing worth noting: what you're going to hear is a conversation between two friends and colleagues, comparing and seeking to better understand each others' "maps of reality". As such, it's not a coaching or teaching session (though there's still plenty to discover). This conversation is particularly valuable if you're committed to making a meaningful impact—whether as a coach, speaker, leader, or in your own personal journey of transformation. Big love, Jamie P.S. If you'd like to learn more about Joseph and his remarkable work, I highly recommend checking out his website:josephriggio.com

#88 - Transforming Setbacks into Success

My friend Jonathan Armes at Capital Shift invited me to have a conversation exploring the topic of "Transforming Setbacks into Success" and he's given me permission to share the full recording with you. We took a deep dive into something that affects us all: how we deal with setbacks in life and work, and what changes when we really understand how our mind works. So whether you're facing a challenge right now or want to support someone who is (friend, client, colleague or loved one), this was created with you in mind. Here's some of what we covered: - Why obstacles are often just stepping stones—raw material for your transformation. - Why insight beats positive thinking every time (real breakthroughs come from fresh perspectives, not just pushing harder). - How to break free from victimhood, remember who you really are, and move through setbacks with more freedom and flow.
