I've been thinking about something since Chicago this weekend. We just wrapped a two-day CE event with over 40 massage therapists, then I spent an extra day going even deeper with my mastermind group on one concept I want to bring to you here. Picture a hallway. Six doors on your left, six doors on your right. Every single day, including right now, you're walking down that hallway making decision after decision. The doors on the left hold your past: your fears, your wounds, the things that didn't work out. The doors on the right hold your future self, the regulated, logical, sane version of you that's actually building something. Here's what I've realized after doing this work for years: it's never just one decision that changes your business or your life. It's compound decisions. Which door you walk through, over and over, is what determines where you end up. I watched this play out in real time at the airport last night in a way that stopped me in my tracks, and I'm going to tell you exactly what I saw. I'm also getting honest about money in this episode, because I think a lot of you are spending it on things that feel good for a minute instead of investing it in things that actually grow you. This episode gives you the roadmap to making decisions from your future self instead of your past wounds. If you're making marketing decisions from fear instead of your future self, that's costing you clients.

I talk to these three women every single day. Not some days. Every single day, for years. In Episode 400 of More Than Mindset, I sit down with Monique, Meg, and Malerie, the team that runs this whole thing with me, for an unscripted conversation about how we actually got built. None of us set out to become coaches. Monique came in with certifications stacked to the ceiling and still couldn't figure out why nothing worked. Meg tried to learn by watching before she finally admitted she needed to go through it herself. Malerie was fresh out of physical therapy school, questioning everything she'd just paid a quarter of a million dollars to learn. I walk through what it actually took: frozen shoulders that released on a phone call, a client who went from $2,000 a month to $40,000 a month, and the daily decision each of us had to make to keep showing up, keep getting coached ourselves, and keep risking what was comfortable to build something that actually works. This episode gives you the roadmap to building a team that doesn't just work for you, but works like this. Ready to make your marketing simple so you can build a team like mine?

The business landscape has completely shifted over the last decade, and I'm talking to every business owner regardless of size. Whether you're a solopreneur making $70K or running a multi-six-figure operation with a team, these three things will determine whether you grow or stay stuck. First: you have to embrace technology. AI is not the enemy. It's a communication tool, and it will force you to get clearer on your message than you've ever been. I resisted this for years, and I spent 26 years of business not collecting emails, not leveraging any of it. I don't want that for you. Second: you have to market. Your ideal clients can't find you if you aren't showing up, speaking clearly, and getting in front of more people. AI helps here too, but only if your message is clear to begin with. Third: someone has to close the deal. Sales is not a dirty word. If your team isn't helping you grow, they're costing you. This episode will change how you see that. These three things work together. Pull one out and the whole system breaks. I walk through how to get started with each one, including exactly what to say when you open up an AI tool for the first time.

I've built confidence for years. Turns out, I was still guessing the whole time. I'm about to hit my 400th episode. Four hundred weeks of showing up, and this week something happened that made me stop mid-sentence and question every decision I've made with a straight face and a steady voice. Because here's what nobody tells you: you can look completely sure of yourself and still not trust a single choice you make. Confidence hides it well. It's loud, it's visible, it convinces everyone in the room, including you. But underneath it, there's a question mark most people never resolve. I found mine this week. And once you see the difference between confidence and what's actually underneath it, you can't unsee it in yourself or anyone else. This episode gives you the roadmap to stop guessing and start knowing. If you've built the confidence but never resolved the certainty, this episode was recorded for you.

Nobody brags about this one. It won't get you a viral reel. It's not a growth hack, a new offer, or a hire that fixes everything. But it's the one skill every business owner has to build, no exceptions, and the ones who skip it end up rebuilding the same crisis over and over. Unhappy customers. A schedule that swings from overloaded to empty. A team that feels off. Ads that stop converting. Sound familiar? This week, I'm breaking down the most boring superpower in business: what it actually requires, the signs you're missing it without realizing it, and the exact daily practice I use to build it before anyone else in my life even wakes up. This episode of More Than Mindset gives you the roadmap to stop rebuilding the same crisis and start building a business that can withstand anything.

I want to tell you something that took me a two-and-a-half hour session with my own mentor to fully understand. Some people don't want help. They want to destroy. Not loudly. Not obviously. They destroy quietly, behind a smile, while telling you how amazing you are to your face. I'm walking you through the 4 indicators that mean someone is not ready, and the 3 that tell you someone is. You'll be able to spot both within two to five minutes of meeting someone, once you know what you're looking for. This episode of More Than Mindset gives you the roadmap to knowing exactly who to invest your energy in, so you can stop taking on clients who cost you more than they'll ever pay you.  Save your free seat for Coach Week https://integrativemindbodycoach.com/coach-week

I asked myself to imagine hitting my next income goal. Just imagine it, nothing more. Within five seconds, my mind handed me every reason I couldn't have it. In this episode I walk you through the exercise I ran with my own coaching clients this week, the one that exposes exactly what happens in your mind the moment you name a number. It's not the goal that's the problem. It's what your brain does in the five seconds after you say it out loud. I'll show you the exact question I use to catch it happening, and the reframe that flips the whole thing, because most of us have gotten really good at defending why we can't hit the number, and not nearly as good at defending why we can. This episode gives you the roadmap to finally closing that gap. Coach Week is coming, save your seat: integrativemindbodycoach.com/coach-week

I got some advice recently that felt so right, I was fully in. Soul invested. Ready to move. Then I asked one question and the whole thing fell apart. Not because the idea was bad. Because the person telling me to do it wasn't doing it herself. This week I'm walking through the advice you should never accept, the kind that comes wrapped in certainty from someone who hasn't actually walked the path. I get into why "I would do that" is usually a lie, the one question that exposes it, and why coaching and advising are not the same thing. I also talk about what 36 years of building a business has taught me about who to actually listen to, and why the fastest way to lose momentum is following someone else's certainty about your life. This episode gives you the roadmap to filtering the advice you get so you're only taking direction from people who've actually done the thing. Join Coach Week to get coached and get results!

I've been doing this podcast for eight years. Nobody's paying me to keep showing up every week, and I don't get a million downloads. So why do I keep going? It's the same reason I still feel afraid, at 57, with five kids, twelve grandkids, and a business behind me. Fear hasn't gone anywhere. I still feel it. I still use it. Most people think fear is the enemy. It's not. Fear is an indicator. It's your body telling you something needs attention. The problem isn't the fear itself, it's what happens when your nervous system is dysregulated and fear turns into paralysis instead of action. In this episode I break down the difference between fear that protects you and fear that traps you, why your frontal cortex goes offline the moment panic takes over, and how I personally use fear about time, health, and purpose to keep moving instead of freezing. This episode gives you the roadmap to turning fear into a tool instead of a threat. Be my guest on my MindBody Business Coaching Call: https://integrativemindbodycoach.com/guest

Have you ever hit a goal and then slid right back to where you started? I've transformed so much of my life. My income, my leadership, my environment, my capacity. But I was still stuck in the habit of looking for change, chasing it, hunting for it, when I had already created it. There's a gap between achieving change and becoming it, and I didn't even know I was standing in it. Here's what really got me: when we don't fully step into who we've become, we don't just hold ourselves back. We take away someone else's chance to be inspired by what's possible. I'm sharing the moment I caught myself in that gap, the story of two apartments that showed me exactly how environment shapes identity, and the specific assignment I'm giving you this week to close it for good. This episode gives you the roadmap to finally becoming the version of you that you worked so hard to create.

You did it. You hit the number. You got the relationship. You landed the career. Everything on the list you wrote years ago is sitting right in front of you. So why do you feel like this? I've been coaching on this exact moment all week, and honestly, a lot of it has been for me too. There's a very specific point that happens after you get what you wanted, and almost nobody sees it coming. You start backsliding. You start feeling unsatisfied. You start wondering what's wrong with you, when nothing is wrong with you at all. In this episode, I'm walking you through what actually happens in your mind between casting a vision and living it, why the version of you who made that wish four years ago is not the version of you standing here today, and what that gap does if you don't deal with it. There's a reason this keeps happening even to people who are winning. I'll show you exactly where it comes from, and what to do the moment you notice it happening to you. This episode of More Than Mindset gives you the roadmap to spotting the anchor that's pulling you back, releasing it for good, and casting a bigger vision from who you've actually become.

As a solo practitioner... You built this by being good at the work, seeing clients, doing the treatments, showing up every day by yourself. But now you want more. You want to stop being the only one who can do this. You want to bring on employees, build a real team, and turn your busy calendar into an actual business. You've probably already Googled it. How to hire your first employee. How to train someone to do the work like you do it. How to delegate without losing quality or losing clients. Maybe you tried it. You showed them what to do, explained it, and somehow they still didn't get it right. So you took it back and did it yourself again, because at least you know it'll get done. Sound familiar? You tell yourself it's fine. You're managing. But some part of you knows this can't be how it stays if you want this to grow into something bigger than just you. This episode of More Than Mindset gives you the roadmap to hiring the right people and getting them to do the work like you do it, so you can finally delegate and scale the business beyond yourself.

Here's what nobody tells you about growing a your wellness business: your marketing isn't the problem. Your ability to self regulate is. I've been a coach since 2012, and I've watched practitioners with excellent frameworks, strong offers, and good marketing still lose clients, still get stuck at the same revenue ceiling, still burn out. The common thread isn't strategy. It's that they were dysregulated, and their clients could feel it. When you're not regulated, you don't hold space. You control. You push your agenda. You try to fix instead of facilitate. Clients sense that, even when they can't name it, and it's exactly what erodes trust, shortens client relationships, and kills referrals. Mastering emotional regulation isn't an optional skill. It's the foundation of business growth in a service business, because your nervous system is your product. In this episode I break down the first three steps of the five step process I use to stay regulated under pressure, including a technique you can use in the middle of a session, a sales call, or a hard conversation with a client who's about to cancel.  Save your free seat for Coach Week https://integrativemindbodycoach.com/coach-week

I said no. That was my first response when I was asked to stand on stage, do the interview, and share a recent win publicly. No, I don't need the recognition. No, I don't need to be seen. Except that "no" wasn't as selfless as it felt. In this episode, I walk through the moment that cracked that open for me, and why I now believe refusing to share your wins can actually be the most selfish thing you do.

I just moved back into my life in Louisiana, and it got me thinking about something we don't talk about enough: change. Not the change you plan for. The change that scares you before you even know why. I used to be someone who needed everything the same. Same structure, same discipline, same certainty. And I used to think that made me strong. It actually made me suffer, because when you resist change, you resist life itself. In this episode I walk you through the moment I decided to stop fighting it, what happened when I let myself want something different (a city, an apartment, ocean instead of swampy Louisiana grass), and why the plant in the ground never asks to stay a seed. If you're in a season where everything feels like it's shifting and you can't find your footing, this one's for you.
