If you've been following me for a while, you've probably seen a lot of things I've done that have worked.

But there's a good chance you haven't noticed the ones that didn't.

In this clip from my Visibility from Zero masterclass, I pull back the curtain on something most people never talk about - and it might change how you think about getting started with anything new.

Big love, 
Jamie

Recently I started an experiment that forced me to be an absolute beginner again.

No plan. No step-by-step roadmap. No idea if it was going to work.

And here's the thing - so many people who have something genuinely valuable to share, something aligned with who they really are... never start. They wait until they feel ready. Until they can see the whole path.

In this short clip, I share what I know to be true about starting something new - especially when you can't see where it's going.

Big love,
Jamie

P.S. That experiment I mentioned? It's about visibility - finding out what actually works right now to reach more people, starting from zero. I'm running a free masterclass next week sharing what I've discovered so far. It's called Visibility from Zero. Register here - https://www.jamiesmart.com/visibilityfromzero

A lot of coaches are starting to feel uneasy about the impact of AI on our profession. And with good reason.

In this short clip from last month's private masterclass for CCT grads, Jamie shares important data that reveals just how — and how fast — things are shifting.

You'll hear:

• The surprising #1 way people are already using AI chatbots in their personal lives

• Why convenience may be the biggest disruptor of all

• And what this all means for the future of coaching, therapy and change-work

This isn't theory. It's happening right now — and the implications are huge.

The good news? There are things human coaches can do that AI never will.

PS: Next Wednesday, 1st October, Jamie is repeating this masterclass — but this time it's open to everyone in the community. You're invited to join live for AI, Coaching & the 3Ps – One Year On: What's Changed, What's Next.

This episode features a coaching demo around weight-loss and fitness during lockdown that I did during a recent masterclass, "The Language of Insight & Transformational Change". I start by talking about the six 'languages of transformation' before diving into one of them, the language of connection.

You'll hear me coaching my client, Angela on her topic, weight-loss and staying fit and healthy while working on her online business. And as I work with her, you'll hear me demonstrating the language of connection to 'get her world' and find my way into a deeper connection with her. Angela's one of the people on my current Thriving Coaches Blueprint programme, so she's already had some breakthroughs in her coaching practice. So she decided to be particularly brave and dive into a topic that she's never discussed publicly before.

So here's the episode...

PS So a few days after we recorded this coaching demo, Angela sent me a Facebook message. Here's what she said:

My Experience Of The Coaching was that it felt easy and simple and the realisation re 'do what you love' was bloody obvious doh! But I heard and felt it deeply...as if I was listening underwater. TBC... 

Other realisations I've had since are: 

1) SELF CARE listen to my body, ie. listen to wisdom about my body... If I need rest, rest. If I want to go out with the dogs do that. Feeling tired isn't telling me about anything other than feeling tired.

2) it's OK to feel under par and still do stuff and be OK with that eg keep commitments then rest afterwards.

3) BREATHING: I've noticed I've started to breathe diaphragmatically, Which creates more room in your lungs and the long out-breath tightens the core!

4)overall I feel an underlying deep sense of love, peace and well being... I'm reminded of this by Louis de Bernieres...

"Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion. That is just being in love, which any fool can do.  Love itself is what

is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident."

I know this is usually quoted about romantic love, but to me, I'm just seeing more and more deeply that to Love Life means to love and care for mySelf as well as others.

**re Louis de Bernieres... The similarity is with being in love with the principles, or the idea of them, now the 'Whoop whoop' has settled down and what I'm left with IS love.

And a more tangible difference... After 2 days of rest at home with my lovely other-half, open fires, and food that I enjoy, I had the energy to go to my paddock where I  trained/played/ran around with the pup. It was easy and fun.

The way it seems to me is it's like a balloon has been popped... And all the air inside has been released into the world. The air is now light and free to move wherever the breeze takes it. And the balloon no longer exists.

As you can imagine, that was a beautiful message to read. And if you want to increase your ability to have this sort of impact with people, it's one of the things we'll be exploring on The Language of Transformation, a six-week course I'm kicking off in December. We'll be diving into all six of the languages of transformation, all in the service of creating greater engagement, connection and impact. And it starts with the 2-day Conversational Transformation Bootcamp on 12 and 13 December, followed by six weeks of learning modules and group-coaching - we'll be focusing in on one of the six languages of transformation each week.

The episode you're about to hear is a mentoring session on visibility & growing your audience that I did with Matt Fox. Matt's one of the coaches taking part in the Clarity Advanced Coach & Facilitator Programme, and he and I met just over a year ago when he joined the Thriving Coaches Blueprint. And one of the things he developed while he was on that programme was his podcast, "The Heart of Dad".

Matt's a father himself, and he's passionate about supporting dads to really be there in their children's lives. In fact, many of his coaching clients are entrepreneurs who are also dads and want to experience more clarity and heart in their work and in their lives as a whole.

So about a month ago, Matt mentioned that he was planning to do the 'Heart of Dad' summit, an event where he was going to interview coaches and teachers who have had an impact in Matt's life, and who are also fathers. Many of these people are dear friends and colleagues of mine, guys like Dicken Bettinger, Dr Bill Pettit, Amir Karkouti and Dr Mark Howard.

If you want to register for the summit, go to https://www.heartofdad.com/summit

Matt invited me to be one of the people he interviewed, and he happened to mention that he wanted to get more visibility and grow his audience for the summit, and that's when I had an idea.

During my most recent Clarity Certification Training, I was talking to the students about the whole domain of business and the principles. We had a really great time, and everyone learned a lot, and it inspired me to start working on something new: the Clarity Pro Business Accelerator. I haven't formally launched it yet, but I'm starting to get a group of founder members together, and I had an idea…

I invited Matt to have a one-hour conversation with me where we'd explore how he can grow his audience for his summit, and we'd stream it LIVE as an example of Clarity Pro Business Accelerator content.

We did the session, and lots of people found it really useful, so I've decided to launch it on the podcast. So here's the episode!

PS it's worth knowing that we've only got 2 places left on the 2021 Clarity Certification Training. There's an early booking price which expires at the end of this month, on November 30th, but it's likely that the programme will be sold out by then (we're limiting it to 36 places and the first 34 have already been taken), so if you want to find out more, go to www.JamieSmart.com/coach that's www.JamieSmart.com/coach

The episode you're about to hear is an excerpt from one of the private laser-coaching & Q&A sessions I do each month with my ClarityPro Members.

Just to give you a bit of background, I'd been telling my clients about something my team and I do called 'Project Gretsky', inspired by a quote from the phenomenal hockey player, Wayne Gretsky who famously said, "Skate to where the puck is going, not where it's been."

In Project Gretsky, my team and I look to the future, and make guesses about where the world's heading, how we can best guide our clients and how we can inspire and educate a generation to experience lives of clarity, resilience and wellbeing. It's how we ended up developing our state of the art live-streaming facility, as well as a number of other innovations we've got in the pipeline.

So during last night's Laser-coaching / Q&A session, one of our ClarityPro members (Andrea Bruno) asked a question that stopped me in my tracks.

Andrea said he was thinking about Project Gretsky, and thought it would be very cool and useful to do something like that, but he said that in the past, whenever he tried to predict the future, he got frustrated because he wanted to be right about it. If things didn't go his way he got increasingly worried, and in the end, he just stopped trying to make any predictions because it wasn't worth the anxiety factor. But something in Project Gretsky spoke to him, and he wanted to get some clarity about that.

So why did this stop me in my tracks? Because I'd never given much thought to how I relate to this whole domain of prediction and future trends.

What you're going to hear in this episode is this: first you'll hear Andrea's question, then you'll get my counter-intuitive answer, then finally you'll hear how it lands with Andrea.

So here's the episode:

• How to create a 'business profile' so people understand what it is you offer
• Should you stick to your guns charging high fees, or lower your prices to make it easier for clients to enrol
• Questions about cutting through all the 'noise' on social media
• How to break through an 'earning ceiling', from someone who had limiting beliefs about how much they could earn

This week's episode is a short extract from a recent Clarity Coaches Tribe call.

It's Jamie's response to a participant's question about the foundation of enrollment conversations — the single most important question you need to be able to answer.

On the surface, it looks simple. But most coaches either miss it completely or don't explore it deeply enough. And the moment you really see it, everything changes.

Maybe you already have a hunch about what the question is… Listen in and find out.

During a recent podcast episode, I mentioned that while climate change is one of the threats facing humanity, there are many others, including artificial intelligence, exponential technology, authoritarianism, pandemics, nuclear winter and many more. This week's episode is another in this series of 'public service announcement' conversations, this time with one of my favourite twitter-follows, Vinay Gupta.

Here's the back story. Last year, I heard a podcast episode with a chap called Vinay Gupta and started following him on twitter (his handle is @leashless).

He's proved to be one of my more fascinating follows, and has a unique perspective on a number of things (including the environment / climate change, the future of money, modern-day slavery, the rise of warlord entrepreneurs and more).

Just to provide some bona fides, Vinay helped organise the launch of the crypto-currency Ethereum a few years back, is the designer of Dubai's national blockchain strategy and is the inventor of the hexayurts you may have used / seen if you've ever been to the Burning Man festival.

Among other things, he's introduced me to the idea of 'goat rodeos' (an explanation of why certain national-level problems prove resistant to resolution, and what you can do about it).

So I reached out to him and said this:

"I find your perspective on the whole 'welcome to the world of the people who grow your coffee' overlap with racism / modern slavery / environment / meditation and fairness super-important. Would you be up for being interviewed on my podcast? (It's called the Get Clarity Podcast). It only has a few thousand listeners but they're mostly people who want to make a difference in the world."

He said, "Yes", and what you're about to hear is the conversation that followed.

By the way, SCIM stands for Simple Critical Infrastructure Maps; an approach for planning for survival in the case of societal collapse

I'm Jamie Smart - welcome to the podcast. A few months ago, I had a conversation with my good friend and colleague, Ami Chen Mills. As well as being a very experienced principles teacher (Ami was one of the first people I heard talking about this understanding), she's the co-founder of the Santa Cruz chapter of Extinction Rebellion.

Earlier in the year, Ami wrote a Medium article, calling out her colleagues in the principles community for a lack of comment and action on climate change (the article was called, 'An Open Letter to My Spiritual Colleagues: On "Spirit" and the Climate Emergency'.)

I read the article and invited Ami to come on my podcast (she accepted.) 

While I know that there is a broad range of opinion on the subject of climate change, one thing is abundantly clear to me:

Humanity currently faces a number of existential threats, including climate change, global pandemics, possible nuclear winter and the dizzying rise of artificial intelligence. In recent years, the world seems more and more like a Marvel comic, replete with mustachioed villains and killer robots.

One of my heroes, Buckminster Fuller once wrote, 

"Whether it is to be Utopia or Oblivion will be a touch-and-go relay race right up to the final moment… Humanity is in 'final exam' as to whether or not it qualifies for continuance in Universe."

This has never looked more true to me. 

So how can we usefully orient ourselves to the challenges we face in the years ahead? And how can the principles help us make sense of things that sometimes seem insensible?

Exploring the answers to these questions is what this episode is all about. By the way, we recorded this before the full scale of the pandemic was known. For that reason, I've delayed the release of this episode until now. So regardless of what your current perspective on the whole question of climate change is, I look forward to hearing your thoughts on this episode.

The 1:1 intensives deep dive you're about to hear is an excerpt from a Q&A Session I did with my ClarityPro Members. I was answering questions I'd been asked by ClarityPro Members and our wider community about 1:1 Coaching Intensives, where you spend up to 3 or 4 days working closely with a client to help them have the breakthroughs that matter to them.

1:1 Coaching Intensives are a bit of a dark art, so I thought it would be nice to shed a little light on the process, and I'm sharing this recording on both my podcasts for several reasons as follows:

Number 1, If you've been thinking about doing a 1:1 intensive with me, this will give you a sense of what to expect, and whether or not it's a good fit for you. That's why I'm sharing it on the Get Clarity Podcast.

Number 2, If you've been considering doing 1:1 intensives with your clients, this will answer some of the questions you may have had, and help you take the next step. That's why I'm sharing it on the Thriving Coaches Podcast.

And number 3, A few years ago, I did a 1:1 coaching intensive with a corporate lawyer called Andy, but I did it in front of an audience of coaches and therapists, answering their questions and unpacking what I'm doing. We recorded the whole thing, and whether you want to do an intensive with me, or you want to do one with your own clients, it's one of the easiest and most cost-effective ways of experiencing an intensive without paying 5000, 10,000 or 50,000 pounds (that's what I charge for my CEO Intensive).

And we've got he 1:1 Coaching Intensive Unpacked in our summer sale at over 40% off until Monday August 31st, so if you'd like to find out more about that, head over to www.clarityacademy.co/intensive

If you want to do an intensive with me, head over to www.JamieSmart.com/ceo.

And finally, we've opened the doors to ClarityPro while our Summer Sale is on, so head over to www.ClarityAcademy.co to see if you want to join, and to see everything else that's in the summer sale.

Welcome to the podcast - I'm Jamie Smart. It's now nearly two months since the tragic killing of George Floyd sparked a wave of protests that's echoing around the globe. And it got me wondering...

"As a member of the principles community, what does it make sense for you to say or do in relation to this?"

And as I wondered about this, I realised something...
I realised that I didn't know the answer to the question.

So I reached out to my good friend and colleague, Clarity Coach Davida Arnold.

Davida is a coach and educator based in Columbus Ohio. She's a mother with young children, and she's a black woman.

You can find out more about Davida at this website: https://davidaiarnold.com/

As Davida and I talked, I realised it could be valuable for us to have a conversation to release more widely.

Our discussion didn't have an agenda per se - the purpose was to have a connected conversation to see what we could discover about 'the truth of the matter'.
We had a great conversation, and afterwards, we both felt it might make sense to have a follow-up chat in a month or so. For now, here's the episode...

Earlier this month, I shared a private Masterclass with Clarity Coaches graduates, exploring the impact of AI, the shifts we're all living through, and what this means for coaches, awakeners and changeworkers.

This video is a short extract from that session.

In it, I share one of my favourite Buckminster Fuller quotes about humanity being in its "final exam"… and reflect on what that means in these extraordinary times.

I also explore the strange juxtaposition between humanity's greatest powers and our deepest fragility — and why it looks to me like we may be standing on the edge of a very different relationship with each other and the world.

Big love,
Jamie

In this episode, I speak with author, podcaster and coach, Anke Hermann. Anke is author of the book, "Taming the Technology Monster", but her work with clients is as much to do with their thinking and their ideas about themselves as it is with their technology projects. In this brief conversation, she reveals how her passion for the work she does today was steadily tapping her on the shoulder while she looked somewhere else for work she loved doing. This conversation speaks to the wisdom that's guiding every single one of us, once we know how to tune into it.

By the way, I'm about to kick off a free masterclass series on sharing the principles in these turbulent times. If you want to join in, just go to www.ClarityAcademy.co/free3p to register.

Now here's the episode.

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

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.

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...

Ever wondered what it's really like to deliver (or receive) a high-ticket coaching package?

In this special episode, you'll hear a rare follow-up conversation with a client two years after we completed a 12-month coaching journey—one that unfolded live, in front of an audience of coaches and change-workers.

We cover:

• What it was like to be coached at this level

• What changed over the year-long journey

• Reflections on transformation, insight, and impact

• Audience questions on the behind-the-scenes process

It's a unique window into deep, transformative work—and what it actually takes to create lasting change with your clients.

🔥 The full "1:1 Coaching Package, Unpacked" is part of the Ultimate Coaching Mastery Bundle – available now for 85% off, but only until this Friday at midnight.

This episode is a little different, because rather than me interviewing someone, it's me *being* interviewed for The Coaching Show, by Master Coach Christopher McAuliffe and another coach, 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 about the whole domain of growing a coaching practice, so we explored that too. 

Speaking of which, this September, for the last time ever, I'm kicking off my 12-week Thriving Coaches Blueprint programme, so if you want to grow a thriving practice in a way that fits with who you really are, head over to jamiesmart.com/thriving to find out more. Like I said, this is the last 12-week coaching immersion I'm doing - going forward we're going to release Thriving Coaches Blueprint as a digital-only programme, and maybe do a six week version. So if you've been thinking about doing this with me, the train is leaving the station! And of the 48 places on this programme, half of the places have already been booked, so it's probably going to sell out. So once again, go to jamiesmart.com/thriving to find out more about the Thriving Coaches Blueprint.

What happens when you enroll a client in a high-ticket package live - in front of an audience—and follow through to the transformation?

In this special episode, I'm joined by executive coach Russell Davis for a check-in conversation after he completed a five-figure coaching journey that started during my "High-Ticket Enrollment, Unpacked" programme.

You'll hear:
 - What really made the difference in Russell's decision to say yes
  - How the coaching unfolded over time
 - What it takes to enroll someone in a bigger vision for their life (and how to do that for yourself first)

This might be the only time a client has been enrolled live in front of an audience and then returned to reflect on the journey. 

It's part of what I want for you: to fall in love with enrollment conversations and grow your coaching practice with impact and integrity.

In this episode of the podcast, you're going to be hearing a conversation I had with a good friend and colleague, Nick Bottini. Over the past couple of years he's gone from being the music teacher in a school to being a bestselling author, speaker and coach who's passionate about sharing the inside-out understanding with musicians.

And while hundreds of thousands of people are now exploring and having insights into this understanding, there are relatively few people who are managing to share this understanding effectively.

Nick's an example of someone who's been proactive in navigating that journey from having his OWN insights into the inside-out nature of life, to helping other people to have THEIR own realisations, but that's not where he started. In the beginning, Nick experienced what people often call 'impostor syndrome' when it came to sharing the principles with musicians. He said,

"I did hold off sharing with musicians because I felt like 'Who am I to share it at all' and sharing it on my home territory is the scariest thing to do because it's like I've got real credibility to lose. I could be 'that guy that's always talking about that thing' you know, and and how will people react to that?"

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 believe the most valuable things you can discover are how experience is created and who you really are. Our mission is to inspire and educate a generation to experience lives of clarity, resilience and wellbeing.

And one of the things we've realised is that the world needs more people who can share the inside-out understanding with others. While Nick's story is going to be an inspiration for people who want to 'get this understanding out there', there's an important message for all of us in it:

That the most important place to share what you've seen is on your 'home turf'; in the way you're living your life, and connecting with the people around you.

By the way - whether you have an audience you'd like to reach, like Nick, or you just want to share what you've realised with the people already in your world, we've just launched a new membership site called Clarity Pro. It's designed for you to have everything you need to share the principles like a pro, with anybody, on any topic and in any situation. To find out more, go to www.JamieSmart.com/claritypro
