Don't Shrink Back! What To Do When Fear Comes Up When You Want To Take Action On Your Goals In Life Or Business It Starts With The Dream podcast

12:04

In this video, I share why many Christian women don’t always get the results they hope for in popular coaching, business mentoring courses, and memberships. From my own experience, I explain how sometimes the content can unexpectedly include new age or spiritual teachings like tarot, astrology, or spirit guides — which can feel confusing or off-putting for those wanting to stay rooted in their faith. I also touch on the common reasons why people don’t get results (like not doing the work), but my focus is on why the typical coaching model might not always align with Christian values and how discernment plays a crucial role. If you’ve ever felt thrown off or unsure about how to navigate faith and personal/business development, this video is for you. Want to clarify your message and walk in your mission finally?

From Good Girl to Grown Woman: The Rules You Need to Unlearn Now 18:10

10 weeks ago18:10

18:10

Breaking childhood rules As a coach, I often hear women talk about rules or mindset they picked up as kids. thing that were said to them like: “If you can’t do it perfectly, don’t do it at all.” “I want doesn’t get.” “Be seen and not heard.” “You can’t pay the bills with art.” These are the kinds of phrases many of us grew up with—rules handed down by well-meaning adults or shaped by the culture around us. But when we hold them up against the life we really want to live—authentic, creative, purpose-led—they can quietly keep us stuck. In this podcast, I’m exploring the childhood beliefs we’ve outgrown and asking the big question: What rules need breaking so we can finally move forward? If you're ready to let go of the old stories and create space for who you’re becoming, you’re in the right place. Let’s challenge the script—together. 1. “What’s a rule or saying I grew up hearing that still echoes in my mind today? Where do I see it showing up in my decisions, fears, or the way I show up in the world?” → Explore how this belief has influenced your choices and whether it still aligns with the life you want to create. 2. “If I could rewrite that rule to reflect my truth today, what would it say instead? How would that new belief change the way I act, dream, or pursue my goals?” → Use this to craft a new, empowering belief that supports your authentic self and future. What cane up for you from today’s topic? Let me know in the comments! ACTION…

Embrace Your ‘Culture Add’: Turn What Makes You Different Into Your Superpower 10:35

26 weeks ago10:35

10:35

In a time where AI is everywhere and businesses are blending in, your greatest asset is YOU. Your story, your culture, your experiences—these are the things no algorithm can replicate. In this video, I talk about the concept of your 'Culture Add,' as defined by Danielle Leslie, and why the very things you think make you "too different" are exactly what the world needs. It's easy to feel like what makes you unique is a barrier to success, but in reality, it’s your superpower. Your quirks, your background, your perspective—they make you relatable and allow you to connect with your audience on a human level. Whether you're building a business, creating content, or just trying to find your place in the world, leaning into your humanness will make you stand out in an age of artificial sameness. So, how can you turn your story into your greatest strength? Watch/listen to find out. COACHING & COURSES https://itstartswiththedream.com/coaching/…

SEE THE FUTURE (THE VISION) WITH EYES OF FAITH 20:32

30 weeks ago20:32

20:32

We can learn a lot from Elijah and the cloud the size of a fist in regards to how to see the vision before us with a sense of faith. In this mini study/devotional/teaching? (I'm not quite sure what to call it, it's my first time in creating one!) we will look at a few Bible passages and see what we can learn about faith and perceiving things spiritually not just physically. I've called it 'seeing the future' with eyes of faith but it's not about forecasting but perceiving what God is doing and showing us. I say perceive because hearing God and seeing what he's doing can entail all our senses like touch, sight, smell, sound and even taste!

What to do when you have a bad day 12:38

48 weeks ago12:38

12:38

In this video podcast I want to talk about managing mental health during difficult times, specifically focusing on how to cope with bad days and weeks. A few weeks ago, I experienced a particularly bad day. This rough patch stemmed from some unresolved health issues that I thought were behind me but resurfaced unexpectedly. This led to a period of low mood and increased anxiety. For those of you who don't know, I've battled postnatal depression and anxiety. While these feelings still surface from time to time, I've learned ways to support myself and continue working towards my dreams. On this particularly bad day, I struggled to maintain my usual self-care routines. I broke my boundaries, sought comfort in unhelpful habits like excessive TV watching and unhealthy eating, and felt overwhelmed with emotions. I cried on and off throughout the day, even while out and about. It was tough, but I came out of that lull and wanted to share some thoughts that could help you.

I haven't told you everything.. in the goal setting gap I experience miracles 6:03

1 year ago6:03

6:03

God meets us in the gap. I've been looking at the dreams of my life and the steps and journey of how they came to be. I realised I'd unintentionally not really talked about the bit I couldn't explain. The God part, the miracle or the divine. Well I'll be sharing the whole thing with you going forward. I realised I probably hadn't touched on the God part because I'd been focused on sharing repeatable steps, the how to, the practical. And how do you teach people a miracle? But the God part has been a big part of all the bigger goals and some seemingly small and mundane things. So I'll share the whole shebang, having dreams, turning them into goals, making plans and supporting yourself with routines, mindset and more. But I'll also share on leaving room for the divine. Having those big dreams and goals even when on paper they don't look possible. Writing down and committing to the dream in your heart that you have no idea on how to make possible. I really think that when we dream and decide and start to move towards our goal something mysterious can happen that brings a new solution, a way forward suddenly becomes possible!

Do you feel down and unmotivated or frustrated like you’re spinning your wheels? If so, this episode is just for you. I’ll be sharing 2 lies we’re believing that will have us stuck and feel hopeless and what we can do to dismantle them so we feel inspired, encouraged and get back into taking action! When you’re having a bad day or week it’s easy to think about all the things that aren’t working out. Our brains have a bias to focus and remember the negative things. You may have even made great progress on your goal but if something negative happens it’s our human tendency to focus solely on what just happened that went wrong. When you’re feeling like this, 2 thoughts or lies have likely come to mind. Is the thought or belief that nothing ever changes, I’ll never make changes and reach my goals I never change, I’ll never think, act or believe differently. Both of these are not true and all it takes is a shift in our focus! Was this helpful? Like, subscribe and share! Want more content like this?
