158: How To Do Things You Don't Want To Do

In this episode, we tackle the common misconception that running an “authentic business” will always feel easy and effortless. The truth is, as you grow in your coaching journey, you'll inevitably face challenges and tasks you don’t love, especially in years two and beyond. We’ll explore the mindset shift needed to push past these obstacles, embrace the hard parts, and develop the systems and skills that turn dreams into reality—whether you’re aiming for a six-figure practice or something bigger. Tune in to learn how to embrace the discomfort and keep moving forward!Youtube video link: https://youtu.be/bk-8iCQXDAwMentioned in this episode:https://www.thesuccessfulnursecoaches.com/workshops

157: NLCA 10: The Importance of Assessment

In this episode, Laura shares in depth about the primary assessment used with new students of Nurse Life Coach Academy.Here is a detailed breakdown of the wheel of life:1. LifestyleDefinition: Lifestyle encompasses the daily habits, routines, and choices that shape the quality and structure of an individual's life.Distinction: This area includes how time is spent, balance between work and relaxation, self-care habits, and overall rhythm of life. It sets the foundation for how individuals experience their day-to-day well-being.2. FinancesDefinition: Finances refer to the management and state of an individual’s monetary resources, including income, expenses, savings, debt, and investments.Distinction: Financial stability or stress impacts nearly every other area, influencing decisions and lifestyle choices. Assessing finances uncovers potential areas for stress and opportunities for growth in financial literacy and stability.3. Health & FitnessDefinition: This area focuses on physical health, exercise, nutrition, sleep patterns, and overall physical well-being.Distinction: Health and fitness are not just about physical capabilities but also about the level of energy, strength, and resilience an individual has to pursue other life areas. A holistic look here also touches on preventive health measures and self-care routines.4. Self-DevelopmentDefinition: Self-development is about the individual’s efforts to improve their skills, knowledge, and personal effectiveness.Distinction: It encompasses learning, self-improvement efforts, and personal growth goals. This area is distinct in that it measures how much focus is placed on growing capabilities and gaining new insights for a more fulfilling life.5. CareerDefinition: Career involves an individual’s professional life, including job satisfaction, career aspirations, work-life balance, and growth opportunities.Distinction: While it may overlap with finances, career assessment focuses on fulfillment, purpose, and alignment of work with values, rather than strictly on income or financial gain.6. FriendshipsDefinition: Friendships refer to the social connections outside of family and romantic relationships, including close friends and broader social networks.Distinction: Friendships are assessed based on their quality, supportiveness, and impact on mental health and happiness. They can be significant sources of joy and growth, providing emotional support and a sense of belonging.7.

Family assessment can reveal patterns, sources of strength, or stress within these foundational relationships.8.

It’s about assessing how much time is dedicated to passions and interests that foster a well-rounded life.9.

148: How To Be Relevant to your Ideal Client in a Down Economy

148: How To Be Relevant to your Ideal Client in a Down Economy

In this episode, Laura talks about how changing your messaging is necessary in a down economy.1. Saving Money (Increased Importance)Frugality: In a down economy, people are generally more cautious with their spending. They prioritize cost-saving measures, looking for discounts, deals, or products that offer long-term savings. This category becomes critical as consumers are more focused on stretching their dollars further.Necessity over Luxury: Non-essential purchases are often delayed or foregone entirely in favor of essentials, making products that save money or offer value-for-money propositions more attractive.2. Saving Time (Moderate Importance)Trade-offs: While saving time remains important, in a down economy, people might be more willing to invest time to save money. For example, they might choose to cook at home instead of dining out, even if it takes more time. However, for essential services that save time, like necessary childcare or certain forms of transportation, this category still holds relevance.3. Gaining Peace (Increased Importance)Security and Stability: Economic uncertainty often heightens anxiety and stress, making peace of mind more valuable. Products and services that offer security (like insurance), mental well-being (such as therapy or wellness products), or financial stability (like investment advice or savings plans) may see increased demand.Risk Aversion: In uncertain times, consumers are more risk-averse, and they may seek out products or services that reduce their exposure to risk, adding to their sense of peace and security.4. Attaining Status (Decreased Importance)Shift in Priorities: Status-oriented spending tends to decrease in a down economy, as people become more focused on essentials. Luxury goods, high-end brands, and other status symbols often see a decline in sales because they are perceived as non-essential.Value-Oriented Status: However, some consumers might still seek status in a more subtle or value-oriented way. For instance, they might look for products that offer a good balance of quality and affordability, allowing them to maintain a certain lifestyle without excessive spending.Overall Impact in a Down Economy:Essential vs. Non-Essential: Consumers prioritize essential spending—things that save money and provide peace—over non-essential or status-driven purchases.Conservative Behavior: There’s a shift towards conservative financial behavior, where saving and securing one’s current assets becomes more critical than acquiring new, high-status items.Your messaging must pivot to create the awareness that this is especially important to hire a coach right now and to NOT wait because your coaching saves them time and money.Make sure to subscribe, rate and review our podcast! Join our Facebook group HERE You can check us out on Instagram @successful_nursecoachesPurchase workshops and get free resources on our website www.thesuccessfulnursecoaches.comIf you are a nurse looking to become certified we recommend: www.thenursecoaches.com‌Mentioned in this episode:https://www.thesuccessfulnursecoaches.com/workshops

131: NLCA 2 - When Clients say "I Don't Know"

131: NLCA 2 - When Clients say "I Don't Know"

When our clients say “I don’t know” it can be really helpful to explore what is under it. We believe all clients have the answers inside of them. However, understanding the reason for the I don’t know can be so helpful.Here are some reasons:Genuine Lack of Knowledge: The most straightforward reason is that they genuinely do not know the answer to a question or lack information on a particular topic.Uncertainty: Sometimes, clients might have partial information or are unsure about the accuracy of their knowledge, so they say "I don't know" because they don’t want to give the wrong answer.Seeking Validation: They may be looking for the coach to provide answers or validation rather than trusting their own insights.Avoiding Responsibility: In some cases, saying "I don't know" can be a way to avoid taking responsibility for a situation or making a decision.Self-Doubt: A lack of confidence in their own knowledge or opinions can lead them to believe they don't have the right answer.Politeness or Tact: Clients might use "I don't know" to avoid offending someone or to diplomatically navigate a sensitive topic.Deflection: It can be used to deflect a question they do not want to answer, either because it is too personal, uncomfortable, or irrelevant.Buying Time: Sometimes, saying "I don't know" gives a person time to think about a more accurate or thoughtful response.Protecting Themselves: In some situations, admitting ignorance can be a protective mechanism to avoid judgment, criticism, or conflict.Indicating Complexity: The phrase can signal that the topic is too complex to explain quickly or that the answer is not straightforward.Make sure to subscribe, rate and review our podcast! Join our Facebook group HERE You can check us out on Instagram @successful_nursecoachesPurchase workshops and get free resources on our website www.thesuccessfulnursecoaches.comIf you are a nurse looking to become certified we recommend: www.thenursecoaches.com‌Mentioned in this episode:https://www.nurselifecoachacademy.com/certification
