#043 - Christine Mitchell The Power of Hope and Certainty
In this episode of the Get Clarity podcast, you’re going to be hearing one of our most popular episodes, a conversation I had with a good friend and colleague, Clarity Coach Christine Mitchell. Christine works with people who arrive with a variety of challenges and objectives, particularly around anxiety, stress and OCD. And one of the interesting things about Christine is she’s working more and more with nurses and first-responders. And here’s one of the reasons I’m really excited to be sharing this conversation with you. As you may already know, at our company, we’re passionate about what we call subtractive psychology: the only thing you can learn that takes things off your mind automatically and uncovers your true potential. It works on the basis that human psychology functions perfectly; that every person is born with innate resilience, clarity, natural motivation, the capacity to enjoy life, and navigate its ups and downs with ease. So what does that actually mean, in rough going? What it means is that there’s something very simple a person can discover for themselves that makes the difference between stress and freedom, between a lifetime of mental health challenges, and complete recovery. And in this interview, you’re going to hear about an extraordinary example of how that happened for Christine and her family. As you may know, we believe the most valuable things a person can discover is how your mind works and who you really are, because this realisation sets you free. And once you know the truth about this, your very *presence* can set others free. Christine saw the truth of this so clearly that those around her saw it too. Two of her closest family members recovered spontaneously from lifelong depression and OCD after a single conversation. Just before we get to that, I wanted to mention that the doors are now open for the January 2021 intake of our flagship Clarity Certification Training programme. And you can save up to £3000 when you book your place by June 26th 2020. Just go to www.JamieSmart.com/coach that’s www.JamieSmart.com/coach So now to the episode. You’re about to hear Christine share in her own words what she realised, how she shared it with her loved ones, and the dramatic difference it made to them. She also talks about the differences it’s making with her other clients. Christine didn’t have years of training or the so-called “right way” of talking about it, she had two things: certainty and the willingness to share what she’d seen so far, that: – Clarity, resilience & wellbeing are pre-existing capacities rather than things to be achieved – People aren’t broken and they don’t need fixing And this episode was first aired back in 2017, but I’m re-publishing it because I want it to be heard by so many people who missed it the first time around. So sit back, relax and prepare to discover just what a difference it’s possible to make when you’re sharing what you’ve seen for yourself. Here’s the episode… If you’d like to contact Christine to find out more about her coaching services, you can reach her on her Facebook page here To view the original video that this podcast was taken from on Youtube click here

#042 - How do you get the principles 'out there' in your community?
Today, I’m going to introduce you to one of my favourite people. She's a master of having a flash of inspiration and then running with it. She's got a deep understanding of the principles behind clarity, and at the start of this year, she found herself wondering... "What would it be like to live in in a town where we had the time and energy to connect with friends, and family and the wider community?" Clarity Coach Liz Scott asked herself this question in January and started a 3-month experiment exploring wellbeing in her local town of Ivybridge. So how did it go? Put it this way. The experiment has been extended for another 6 months! In fact, Liz is now running online 'Wellbeing Listener' programmes supporting those in the community who want to be better listeners for friends, family and work colleagues. And here's the cool thing... Few of the participants have ever even heard of the Inside-Out understanding. But based on their experience so far, they're very curious to find out more. Lots of people have already joined in with the Wellbeing Listener webinar including people from charities, volunteers, listening services, the community connector, business-owners, parents, change-workers and educators. So I've asked Liz to join us here in to share - her inspiration for the project - how she got it off the ground - and her ideas about where it may go next And here's the thing: because these principles are playing out for *everyone*, this conversation will be a great opportunity to have insights and realisations for yourself into the principles, and how you can share them with others.

#041 - DEMO: Post-Lockdown: Getting unstuck & back in the game after a business collapse
Welcome to the podcast. And in this episode you’re going to hear a coaching demo I did with a client who was completely stuck following a series of catastrophes. First, she was hit with the deaths of both her parents within the space of a couple of years. Then her husband became seriously ill. She told me that during this period, her work as a coach kept her going. But then, the UK coronavirus lockdown kicked in, and her business collapsed overnight. She said it was like a domino effect of ‘big things’ happening that’s left her feeling stuck and with no confidence. She said she felt like she had lead in her boots and was unable to move. When I asked her what she wanted to have happen as a result of our session, she said... “I want to become unstuck. I want to go back to being me.” Just before I introduce that session, I wanted to let you know that the 2021 Intake of our flagship programme, the Clarity Certification Training is now open for enrolment and you can save up to £3,000 when you register by Friday 26th June. A few things worth knowing… 1. Clarity Certification Training is our flagship seven month programme for anyone interested in bringing an understanding of the principles behind clarity into their life or work. 2. I’m going to be delivering all 7 modules on the Clarity Certification Training myself, so you’re going to be working closely with me. 3. We’re limiting the number of places on the programme to 36 people, and.... 4. You can save up to £3,000 when you book your place by Friday, 26th June, 2020. >>> You can find out more and book your place at www.JamieSmart.com/coach So now to the coaching demo. I did this session in front of an audience of clients on my 12-week Coaching Immersion programme. The client’s name is Cecilia, and as you’ll hear, I move between coaching Cecilia and speaking to the audience. The main coaching session is in the first 26 minutes of the podcast. Then in the last minute or two of the podcast, you’ll hear me circle back and check in with Cecilia - this was actually an hour later (I was coaching some other members of the group in the meantime). So here’s the coaching demo.

#040 - INTERVIEW: A conversation with Billy Mann
In this episode, you’re going to hear me being interviewed by Billy Mann. In fact, it’s a conversation as much as it is an interview. Billy is a coach, and entrepreneur and an absolutely lovely human being. And one of the things that’s interesting about Billy is that he’s been deeply impacted by the single paradigm as articulated by Keith Blevens and Valda Monroe, so that’s one of the areas we explore in this episode. About Billy Mann Billy Mann is a Father, Husband, Entrepreneur, Business Owner, Coach, Blogger, Soon to be Author and All-Round lover of life. Billy has spent all of his life in business in one form or another. He literally grew up in his family business (we lived over it) and has worked serving people in one form or another as far back as he can remember. People have always been his passion. As life has it, it took a life changing event to see something new and he has spent the last 10 years dedicated to understanding what it really means to enjoy our lives, creating what it is that reflects our joy. Now, along with running a very successful salon with very happy staff (it's a really joyful place to work for us all) to helping others to find that sweet spot inside, he's busily creating a coaching business to help business owners discover what it means to really live and love their business and their staff. Having spent 27 years employing people both as a freaked out, stressed out boss to having a more productive and profitable business taught him that people always come first and a great relationship with staff builds a great business... Being a great boss isn't as tough as it may seem. If you want to connect with him, you'll find him on Facebook and Instagram and you can DM him or email him at billymanncoaching@gmail.com

#039 - What are the 3 principles
The 9 minute clip you’re about to listen to is an excerpt from an interview where I was asked the question, “What are the 3 principles.” As you’ll hear, my response started in somewhere that’s probably pretty familiar to most people and ended up somewhere much deeper. In fact, by the time we’d reached the end of my answer, the feeling was so deep and profound that my interviewers (Lea Wernli and Shailia Stephens-Würsig) fell completely silent, and we sat in that insight-friendly space for the next 25 seconds. We’ve left that 25 seconds of silence in at the end of this recording, and I haven’t recorded an outro because you may find that you want to sit in that silence for a while once we get to it. And here’s the thing: You may have heard me say that I see my job in sharing the principles as ‘helping make it easy for my clients to have the insights that are going to make a difference to them in their lives.’ What I’ve found is that when we spontaneously fall into that quiet, peaceful, ‘insight-friendly’ space, that’s a time when people are particularly open to having some big realisations. Here’s the episode.

#038 - KEYNOTE : The Search is Over (except when it isn’t)
I’m Jamie Smart, and welcome to the podcast. We’re many weeks into lockdown as i record this, so I hope this finds you and yours safe and well. One of the things I’ve been doing is having a look at ways to introduce people to my work, and so I was looking through our most popular podcast episodes. I’ve got some great new episodes lined up for you, but this week I’m going to share one of our most popular episodes of all time. The recording you’re about to hear is a keynote speech I did at the opening of the first “Unlimited Conference” in Helsinki, Finland back in 2016. It starts with an introduction from the conference organiser, Niko Leppanen. I first met Niko at a workshop in Oslo, Norway, and he went on to train with me as a Clarity Coach, so we’ve been on this journey together for quite a while. Now, almost everyone who’s been touched by the 3 principles gets hit by the same three big questions, 1) Why doesn’t everyone know this? 2) What can I do to help get this ‘out there’? 3) Why does it sometimes seem difficult to share this understanding with other people? The Unlimited Conference was Niko’s inspired answer to the “How can I help get this out there?” question, so I felt very honoured to be one of the speakers. And the name of my keynote talk was, “The Search is Over (except when it isn’t)”. So here’s the episode...

#036 - MASTERCLASS Finding your bearings in turbulent times
I'm Jamie Smart - welcome to the podcast. You don't need me to tell you that, as I record this, we're living through a time of extreme volatility and uncertainty. One aspect of that is the coronavirus and its health impacts. Another aspect is the societal and economic impacts of our response to the pandemic. But the third, and for many people the most troubling aspect is the psychological and emotional distress that people are dealing with in relation to all this. This week's podcast is a recording of an online masterclass I did recently called "Finding your bearings in turbulent times." As you listen, we’re going to be exploring the things that can help you to… - Navigate these rapidly changing circumstances. - Keep your bearings (and find them again quickly if you should lose them). - Be of real help to the people around you when they start losing their sh*t. You'll also hear me do live Q&A as I deal with the various questions and concerns people (quite naturally) have as they're navigating these strange times. So here's the Masterclass...

#035 - GCP Interview: The Coaching Show
This episode is a re-release of an interview from last summer, but as you’ll hear, it’s a conversation with a difference, because rather than me interviewing someone, it’s me *being* interviewed for The Coaching Show, by ICF Master Coach Christopher McAuliffe and his colleague Alex Terranova. And this was an interesting one. As you’ll hear, it was pretty fast-paced, and I really enjoyed the challenge of making the value and approach involved in principles based coaching explicit to a couple of experienced coaches who were brand new to the subject. We talked about 3-day intensives, and what has to happen before a busy executive is willing to take 3 days out of a packed schedule to do an intensive with you. We also talked a lot about the whole domain of growing a coaching practice. Speaking of which, back when we released the episode, I announced that I was running my last ever 90-day Coaching Immersion. One of my business mentors had said that 90 days (12 weeks) was too much - that we should limit the programme to 60 days max, or even just do it as a digital course. So I decided to do one last 90-day programme, and run all three tracks as a single group. We had coaches who wanted to get clients, enroll them on coaching packages and make a difference doing the Thriving Coaches Blueprint track… www.JamieSmart.com/thriving We had people who wanted to change careers to do something more fulfilling and on-purpose doing the Career Transition Blueprint track… www.JamieSmart.com/escape We had people who just wanted to see the principles behind clarity more deeply in the most important aspects of their lives doing the Clarity for Personal Transformation track… www.ClarityAcademy.co/transform12 But they were all doing it in one group, meeting up with me each week for 1:1 coaching in a group context… It was an experiment. It was the first time I’d ever combined all three tracks. I didn’t know exactly what was going to happen. But you know that feeling, when you try something out and it turns out even *better* than you expected? Yeah, that feeling. As we were going through the programme, one of the students asked me why this intake of the 12-week programme was the last one. He said (and I'm paraphrasing), "It's a great format - why are you stopping it?" I explained that we were planning to release these 3 tracks as digital programmes, and experiment with a shorter, 6-8 week format, but it suddenly occurred to me that I should check with the folks on the programme. So I asked them, “How has 12 weeks been for you, in terms of your levels of engagement / amount of progress / amount of time you could devote to it / how much you've learned / how far you've come etc?” Basically, for what we've been doing, was 12 weeks too long, too short, or just right? The vast majority of the people on the programme replied, “Just right.” And here's the thing. That's how I felt too. I enjoyed the hell out of it! So I’ve decided to do a 180. We’re doing the 12-week Coaching Immersion again. I’m going to be doing all 3 tracks, and we’ve got some great coaches and aspiring coaches already signed up and ready to start with the Thriving Coaches Blueprint track. We’re starting soon - the doors close on 11th march. This is a chance to work closely with me in a small group setting, so if you’ve been thinking about making some changes, now’s a good time! If you’re a coach and you want to get clients and grow your practice in a way that feels great and fits with who you really are you can find out more about the Thriving Coaches Blueprint at jamiesmart.com/thriving.
