We are continuing our series in the 10 Coaching Secrets for a Wildly Successful Business.

Secret #1 we talked about finding your voice and in secret #2 we talked about that unique and special 1% that you have.

Are you ready to dig into secret #3? Me, too!

Secret #3: Listen to transform. 

Did you know that roughly 85% of what we have learned is through listening?

So, when we take this concept of listening to transform, we can really begin to understand our clients and how to better help them toward success.

I often see well-meaning coaches doing one of two things when coaching clients. First, they have a natural inclination to tell them what works for them and what they have done to overcome obstacles. Second, they try to shift a person's perspective with linguistic terms. 

In both scenarios the client walks away feeling great, but ends up worse than before because their brain is not wired like yours and what works for you won't always work for them. This then causes them to feel down and blame themselves when they aren't met with success. 

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

They don't need coaching. They need transformation. Your clients don't need more of the same thing. If those models and systems worked, they would have achieved the success they're seeking. The only way they will see true transformation is to teach them how to neutralize and erase those thought patterns that are holding them back from the success they crave. They need to learn how to transform their minds to build success patterns. 

Clients are operating in automation. Clients are used to not hearing their narrative. These thoughts are on automation. Our families, friends, experiences have all shaped our thoughts on success and wealth and they're typically on automation. That is why listening to transform is so crucial. As coaches, we ask guided questions to have the clients tell their stories. As they tell their stories to themselves, you can use their words back to them. You ask them what they want, what's in the way, and what becomes possible when those blocks are removed. As they begin uncovering these truths, their next natural step is their realization that they need you as a coach to help them along the way. 

Transformation comes after revelation. You need to pull this out of your client by listening to them and using their words to have them clarify for themselves. This is giving them the gift and power to self coach. Resist telling them what you've done. You're guiding them to build their own network to success in their brain. As they learn to rewire, success becomes natural and effortless.

P.S. If you're ready to turn your passion for serving others into a profitable coaching offer, launch your offer successfully and create a life of freedom for yourself & your family, KEEP READING!

Today I want to give a shoutout to one of my Epic Success Podcast listeners who left a 5-star review:

"Powerful impact listening to the doctor and all her wisdom. An amazing woman serving from her heart and soul."

I absolutely love sharing the brain-based process of creating success in your life & business with you each week on the Epic Success podcast! Reviews are how I know you're finding value and help me share Epic Success with more people!

If you have something you want to say about the Epic Success podcast, I'd love it if you'd post a 5-star review on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

...and they were abundantly fulfilled and wildly successful in their business and their life. 

Do any of you flip to the back of the book and read the ending when beginning a new novel? (I  can just see a few of you smiling now). 

Well, I thought I'd go ahead and flip to the back and let you know how the story ends before we dive into secret #2 of the 10 Coaching Secrets for a Successful Business series. 

The 10 secrets could not come at a more perfect time as we head into the new year and set new goals for ourselves. Let me tell you, if you are growing your coaching business you need these secrets in order to not only get clients, but keep and transform them into raving fans. 

Let's recap-- coaching secret #1 was all about finding your voice. No more mimicking others. Finding your own voice and operating in that sphere of excellence is what will set you apart from others. How exciting!

Coaching secret #2 is your 1% factor. 

You're probably wondering, "what in the world is a 1% factor?"

99% of DNA is identical between each other. However, that other 1% is uniquely you.

Struggling coaches don't understand that it's that 1% factor that helps them stand out and draws their perfect client to them. Most people will bury that 1% and pretend to be something they are not or they try to become who they think people want. Then wonder why they're not seeing success in their business or in their client's life (ouch!).

Clients won't believe in you more than you believe in yourself. 

Hiding that 1% is actually making it harder for you to grow your business. Your vibe attracts your tribe. 

Unlock and unleash that 1%. It was given to you to put out in the world. It is divinely yours to set into action to change lives. Find that thing that comes naturally. Think back on what people say they love about you. Figure out what that 1% is and use it! Step into that identity, because no one is going to do it for you. People are waiting for you to say yes to your 1%.

Quit burying who you are. 

And the best part is that there's no competition in the market, because that 1% is uniquely you. 

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

1.  What is your 1% factor? Scientifically speaking, 99% of DNA is identical between each other. However, that other 1% is uniquely you. No one else has that 1%. It is reserved for you and you alone. It is a divine fingerprint given to you for you to use to fulfill your unique and special purpose on this earth.
   
   
2. Your experience creates your expertise. Your pain becomes your purpose. Your mess becomes your mission. But people hide it and try to be something that they're not. It's not easy to hear, but we have to call it out.
   
   
3. The broken things that aren't working are operating in automation. When we do the same thing over and over again (like brush our teeth), our brain puts them on autopilot where it just becomes second nature. We don't have to think about them; we just do them. There is good news though! There is a way to neutralize and rewire these automated processes. By combining your 1% factor with a true brain-based transformational coaching model, you will see these automations rewire themselves and then begin seeing unbelievable breakthroughs. 

P.S. If you're ready to turn your passion for serving others into a profitable coaching offer, launch your offer successfully and create a life of freedom for yourself & your family, KEEP READING!

"Dr. Shannon has not only up-leveled my business, but also my life. So grateful for her heart and passion."

I absolutely love sharing the brain-based process of creating success in your life & business with you each week on the Epic Success podcast! Reviews are how I know you're finding value and help me share Epic Success with more people!

If you have something you want to say about the Epic Success podcast, I'd love it if you'd post a 5-star review on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Whose voice are people hearing when you speak?

Is it your unique voice or simply a mirroring of other coaches? People don't need (or want) cookie-cutter coaches. They are hungry for authenticity. They need to know that there are coaches out there who have been where they are, who have struggled, and fought for their dreams. 

In this week's episode of the Epic Success Podcast, I talk about finding your voice and having it heard in the marketplace. If you have struggled to make an impact in your coaching business, it may be because you haven't found your specific and distinct voice. 

If you're ready to have your voice heard then turn up the volume and join me as we dig into coaching secret #1. 

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• It is about your journey. 

You need to understand what you've been through and how you can use those experiences in your coaching business. It is through those experiences coupled with an understanding of transformational coaching that you can have the confidence in your expertise. Oftentimes we spin our wheels trying to prove our worth to others. Instead, we should be using our experience and expertise to coach others to greatness. It is your journey and that is what gives you that unique voice. [5:10]

• You have permission to truly be yourself. 

People will be wholly attracted to you, as an individual, when they see you as someone they can relate to. People want to know that you struggle with fears and failures just like they do. They will be more apt to hear your voice and heed your direction when you are personified. That is why stepping into your unique voice is so crucial, because no one is you. [8:50] 

• Don't be afraid of selling.  

Do you get a pit in your stomach when you get to the selling part? You haven't learned to trust your voice yet. You can trust your expertise and sell with confidence. You have what it takes to get your clients the results they're looking for. Don't be afraid of selling. [9:58]

I know that you want to see lasting transformation in your clients. I know you want your clients to have a transformed mindset - and it starts with recognizing and trusting YOUR voice. You can be the coach you've always dreamt of being. Practice coaching secret #1 and you WILL be unstoppable!

Today I want to give a shoutout to one of my Epic Success Podcast listeners who left a 5-star review titled "This podcast is my daily motivation":

"Shannon, I love every episode! Having all the feels after listening to the episode with Lori Harder!"

I absolutely love sharing the brain-based process of creating success in your life & business with you each week on the Epic Success podcast! Reviews are how I know you're finding value and help me share Epic Success with more people!

If you have something you want to say about the Epic Success podcast, I'd love it if you'd post a 5-star review on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

I hate to say it, but I think it's an important realization: the coaching industry is broken.

What most coaches don't realize is that they are working against the way the brain is wired to get results for their clients.

So many well-meaning coaches have learned broken coaching methods, which means they are coaching the wrong way! 

It means they are coaching symptoms instead of the source causing the symptoms.

And if you're one of those coaches, let me tell you: it's not your fault! 

There is no governing body - no regulation - in the coaching industry. Which is why just about anyone can become a "coach".

Even though these coaches mean well and their heart is in the right place, because of these broken coaching methods - they could be causing more harm than good. They could be causing their clients to work harder in all the wrong ways, which stops lasting and genuine transformation.

In this week's episode of the Epic Success Podcast, I talk about the broken parts of the coaching industry. Coaches are needed now more than ever! As a coach, we need to show up big, serve deeply, and help guide people to the best version of themselves. 

Coaching clients to "just work harder" or "stay motivated" or "keep pushing and it will happen" just doesn't work - their brains are wired differently than yours! To get lasting transformation, you have to provide source-based, brain-based methods with the Neurocoaching model™.

If you want to learn how to create source based coaching transformations and get breakthrough results for your client - at the source - then turn up the volume and join me!

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• Telling people what they should think does more harm than good!

Everyone's brain is wired differently. Your brain is wired differently than your client's brain. When you tell someone to do what you did or think how you think, you're causing them to work against the way their brain is wired. They have to know the way their own brain thinks so that they can start thinking in a way that works for their advantage. [3:03]

• We have to do source-based or brain-based coaching - not symptom-based coaching.

Real coaching - the coaching that provides lasting transformation and authentic breakthrough - is source-based. As a coach, you have to get to the root, get to the source of the unwanted actions. We know through the STEBDAR method that it's the automated beliefs that make up 80-90% of decisions and actions. As a coach, are you getting to the source of those beliefs? Or are you coaching based on symptoms? [6:06] 

• Transformed people transform people. 

I know that you have a big heart that loves to show up and serve in a big way! I know that because that's who coaches are at their core, and that's why you're here. When you experience true transformation, you can't help but want to share that transformation with others. It's in our nature. It's time to start transforming people at the source, with brain science! [12:15]

I know that you want to see lasting transformation in your clients. I know you want your clients to have a transformed mindset - rewiring their brain to create the life they've always dreamed of having. 

I also know you want sold out coaching programs!

You can be the coach that creates lifelong, source-based transformation rooted in science. And I'm here to help you do it! 

P.S. If you're ready to turn your passion for serving others into a profitable coaching offer, launch your offer successfully and create a life of freedom for yourself & your family, KEEP READING!

If you have something you want to say about the Epic Success podcast, I'd love it if you'd post a 5-star review on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

As coaches, we're never satisfied with surface level transformation for our clients. 

We want to see deep and lasting transformation that takes them to levels higher than even they imagined. 

But how do we get there? 

What are the steps that we, as coaches, need to take in order to take our clients there?

Well, I'm talking today about the 10 steps that every coach needs to develop in order to get our clients to that place that pushes them to their potential. 

In this episode of the Epic Success Podcast, I'm talking about the ten steps and over the next few weeks, I'll be diving deeper on how to implement them into your coaching business (or if you're just getting started how to begin to develop these coaching secrets). This will help you amplify the results for your clients and, in turn, create raving fans that sell out your programs!

I'm super passionate about this, so let's just dive right in!

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "Your 1% is 100% unique to you." 

It's crazy to hear, but as humans, our DNA is 99% identical. I know. But there's a ton of research to back that up. That 1% that's left? That's what makes you, you. And there's no one else out there who can match that. It's in understanding your 1% and what it is that you have to offer that creates your voice as a coach. As I always say, your vibe attracts your tribe. [5:08]

• "Listen to transform instead of just listening to talk. "

There are so many coaches out there who are listening to their clients and, with the best intentions, tell their clients what worked for them. It sounds helpful and well intentioned but this can actually cause harm for your clients. I dive deeper into this topic on another podcast (and even deeping in the NeuroCoaching™ Certification) but it's vital to understand that your story is your own and to let your clients own their story. [6:45]

• "Combine the two things they already think they need: dreams + pain."

On the one hand, your client has their dreams and visions and things they want to accomplish, and on the other they have the pain, which is really just the things that are holding them back from those dreams. It's your job as a coach to always be working in that duality. Always be amplifying the vision and helping them to remove what's stopping them and blocking them - pain.. [9:23]

You can start a coaching business the right way. 

Or if you already are a coach, what you learn in the NeuroCoaching™ Certification can help you uplevel your business and sell out your programs with ease because you are able to give transformation that is lasting and rapid. 

You can keep coaching the same way, working real hard with little to show for it OR you can start your NeuroCoaching Certification™

With this Certification, you'll finally discover what it is like to get amazing results for your clients each and every time - selling out your coaching programs, where your only problem isn't results, but how high to raise your prices .

You will learn how to get consistent breakthrough results with your clients so you can finally feel what it's like to have raving fans of your coaching. 

Your clients will SELL your coaching FOR YOU because they can't stop telling others about the powerful and life changing difference your coaching made for them. 

Reminder that spaces are limited and the new cohort is starting soon!

Today I want to give a shoutout to one of my Epic Success Podcast listeners who left a 5-star review titled "So glad I found this podcast!":

"This podcast is exactly what I've been looking for. The first one I listened to was the Lori Harder episode. So many truth bombs and wisdom! Thank you ladies for showing up in this world to lead!"

I absolutely love sharing the brain-based process of creating success in your life & business with you each week on the Epic Success podcast! Reviews are how I know you're finding value and help me share Epic Success with more people!

If you have something you want to say about the Epic Success podcast, I'd love it if you'd post a 5-star review on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Let's be honest, the last few years have shown us that almost nothing is certain. 

We've seen incredible change in how businesses are being created and run and I bet you're wondering how you can be a part of this shift. 

Your story and your experiences are valuable. 

And not just to you: there is someone out there who would benefit immensely from your experience and your expertise. 

With so many people looking to make a shift... in their career, creating a side hustle, or even just a life shift…

I felt I just had to address this. 

I'm very passionate about the topic of becoming a coach. And in this episode of the Epic Success Podcast, I'm talking about the importance of timing in entering the field of coaching. NOW is the time. Now, more than ever, the world needs more coaches and we need those coaches to know the right and wrong way to coach. 

If you've been feeling an itch for something different, for something bigger and more impactful in the world, grab something to write with and let's dive in! 

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "We all have blindspots." 

It doesn't matter who you are (I'm looking at you, Jeff Bezos). We all have been in that place where we are just too close to our own thinking and can't see the problem. We all could benefit from someone, a coach, who reflects our thinking back to us and helps us achieve clarity. Sometimes we are so wrapped up in our own expertise, that we don't take the time to realize that if we would learn from an expert, or a coach, we could open up possibilities that we didn't even know were there. It could be one step that you didn't know to take that could be the difference in your business [4:00]

• "It's a powerful act of service to become a coach. "

It's life changing for the clients that are waiting for you to say "yes" to yourself and become the coach that your future clients need. I say it all the time: transformed people transform people. And now, more than ever this world needs coaches that are trained in the right model that can help people get to the finish line, without fear. [6:32]

• "We really need YOU as a coach, to help shift the tide for people."

I'm a firm believer that there are people right now, waiting that will not be able to coach successfully with me or anyone else but you. And they've been waiting  because their experience and your experience align. And when you use the super power of what you've gone through, the uniqueness, and add the NeuroCoaching Model™ on top of that, is pure power in the world of coaching. [11:00]

Once you understand the framework of your mind, you're are able to train your brain, and your client's brain for success.

That is the magic zone.

That is when all the light switches start going off and your client begins recognizing the power of their brain and the impact it has.

So, if you've been on the fence… 

Thinking about building a side hustle…

Thinking about building something to create lasting impact and freedom...

Thinking about "Is this the time?"… 

It is. 

You have clients waiting for you!

Let me tell you a true story about my coach.

My coach spent four years in a job, making *okay* money, climbing the ladder in an industry she didn't care about, because she didn't feel like she knew enough.

It took some time for her to come to a realization - which was figuring out her blind spot - that changed everything for her.

Her blind spot wasn't that she didn't know enough.

Her blind spot, she realized, was that SHE was the only thing getting in her way.

And so she did what any sane person wanting to develop a great feature for herself would do and jumped.

She knew it was the right next step for success in her business and life, even though it was outside of her comfort zone.

And, sure enough, she scaled to an eight-figure business in just a few years.

What would be possible if you had a good coach, a good plan, and somebody that believed in you until you could believe in yourself?

I'll tell you: your whole life would change.

You will be as successful as the thoughts you allow your brain to constantly repeat.⁠

Are your thoughts ones that motivate and inspire you? Or are they thoughts that drain and exhaust you?⁠

Be really honest with yourself here.⁠

You can take every thought captive and rewire it for your success, but you have to recognize it first.⁠

That's the first step I teach my members in the Epic Success Accelerator.⁠

This step is CRUCIAL in rewiring the thoughts that continue to hold us back.⁠

Recognize, refute, reframe. 

You get to decide what success looks like for yourself.

In this episode of the Epic Success Podcast, I'm talking with a friend and former client of mine, Hilary DeCesare, founder and CEO of The Relaunch Life. She's crushing launches and writing books and serving at her highest level! I'm captivated by her success story and her ability to take what she's learned in the program and continue to reach her goals and set new ones! 

If you're ready to dive deep into the system of belief, listen in! 

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "There is an actual system for belief." 

I've said it 1000 times, maybe more: your brain needs to see it before you can believe it. Success comes when you follow the model for it. If you have the system, if you have formula, it will produce YOUR limitless life. You will achieve YOUR definition of success. The model is what does the magic; it's how our brain is wired.  [12:15]

• "I didn't know what I didn't know in terms of the mind. "

Sometimes we are so wrapped up in our own expertise, that we don't take the time to realize that if we would learn from an expert, or a coach, we could open up possibilities that we didn't even know were there. It could be one step that you didn't know to take that could be the difference in your business. [15:05]

• "With a solid, stable program behind you, you're not as apt to let the wave crush you."

Having a tool kit at your disposal that you KNOW will get you to the level of income that you want to get to, get to the level of freedom that you want to get to, allows you to rock with the waves instead of being completely overcome by them. When you rewire your brain for success, you're able to rewire how you see "failure" and use the tools that you've learned in your program to serve you on your journey.  [22:00]

The thoughts you are telling yourself right now are creating your future.

You are painting the picture of what the remainder of this year is going to look like by what you are choosing to believe about yourself, your vision and your life.

Your thoughts create your reality.

Resist the urge to believe every thought that you think.

Your brain's job is to automate what you repeatedly tell it.

You read that… right?

Imagine this: your perception of life is like a movie screen and your brain is the projector. It's going to play the story line you have written.

Write the story you want! It's that simple.

Write a happy ending, not a horror story.

Rise up and choose to take back control of your thoughts.

You'll be pleasantly surprised how much life works for you when you flip the switch, you can accomplish more in weeks than you have in the last year!  

 P.S. If you want results like Hilary, listen up, because this only happens twice a year!

Today I want to give a shoutout to one of my Epic Success Podcast listeners who left a 5-star review titled "Epic Success Podcast":

"I heard Lori on the podcast and would love the book! If I don't win one, I will buy it! Thanks Lori & Dr. Shannon!"

I absolutely love sharing the brain-based process of creating success in your life & business with you each week on the Epic Success podcast! Reviews are how I know you're finding value and help me share Epic Success with more people!

If you have something you want to say about the Epic Success podcast, I'd love it if you'd post a 5-star review on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

We've been talking about unlocking your limitless potential recently and I'm so excited about the thousands of people jumping on board, ready to break through their glass ceiling. 

As a driven entrepreneur who wants to change the world, you know that breaking through to the other side is not the end of the journey - it's only the beginning. 

Once you're on the other side, you feel empowered and limitless, and you go on to do things you've never done before. 

And as you come to that new vantage point and start to see what's possible, your desire for more impact grows, and your drive gets bigger to serve even more people. 

Oftentimes we view success as a destination. 

"If I could just get to x." 

"Once I make x dollars a month." 

"I know that when I achieve x then I will…" 

But success is not an 'x marks the spot' location on a treasure map. 

It's not the final destination, it's part of the journey. 

In this episode of the Epic Success Podcast, I'm talking with former client of mine and all around incredible human being, Julia Black from The Lights On Mum. Julia is one of those people who has a big mission, a big vision, and a big calling. I can't help but brag about her and her work in the field of education with both parents and children, helping them tap into how they're wired in terms of their learning. 

If you're ready to start your success journey, listen in! 

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "It is not the external that will make us happy and successful in life." 

It's the internal thought process that happens within ourselves. Once we master that, we realize that no matter where life goes or whatever our experience, we can be happy by choice. We do not have to be limited by circumstance. [8:27]

• "Success is not linear. "

We look at accomplishment as if it's linear. As if it just goes up, without any dips. But if you listen to the 1% talk about their success in business, they'll tell you it was the failures that were the catapults. We often aren't ready to hear that because we haven't done the internal work that redefines failure. I touch so much more on this in the live event, so make sure you register!   [14:58]

• "It's when the fail comes, and how you respond to it."

Failure is inevitable, and it's there to teach you something. There are tools that can enable you to rewire how you look at failure and how it impacts your journey. You don't have to put on a cozy blanket and grab a box of cookies and throw a pity party on the couch. You are capable of finding the lesson in failure and moving forward and accelerating.  [26:50]

It's so exciting when there is no longer a limitation on what you can do. 

When you have that feeling deep in the marrow of your bones, knowing that you are capable and that there is more for you. 

I want, so badly, to help you access that part of you. 

And I know you're ready.

You're committed to the journey.

Committed to every single day, showing up and finding out where that potential can take you. 

Join me for this ONCE IN A LIFETIME, free event where we are going to be breaking down this brain-based success system where, once you have this blueprint, you can use it again and again to reach your goals and set new ones.

"This podcast is so motivational and inspiring. As a Christian woman just starting out as an entrepreneur, I have found so much motivation and inspiration from the Epic Success Podcast.

There are fewer than 90 days left in 2021. 

What were your thoughts when you read that? 

Did you feel shocked? 

In disbelief? 

Maybe a little anxious? 

Do you feel like you lived up to your full potential in the last three quarters? 

If you're like me, and most other visionary entrepreneurs, you'll answer that last question honestly with: probably not. 

That's not to say you haven't been successful or experienced accomplishments. You totally have and that's worth celebrating! 

AND there's a whole other level (of income, service, success) waiting for you to break through, and what I'm talking about today will help get you there. 

In this episode of the Epic Success Podcast, I'm talking about maximizing YOUR potential for the next 90 days. We'll look at those top entrepreneurs who seem to always accelerate their success and achieve their goals, and unlock how YOU can experience that same ease of success.

If you're ready to maximize your potential and create a limitless life, listen in! 

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "We start something - and go all in, but then..." 

Whether you talk yourself out of your big idea, or tell yourself you don't have all of the right "stuff" to get it done... you're stuck in the start-stop cycle. When you're in this cycle, your brain will start to argue with you about your abilities and your worthiness. The good news is, you can rewrite those stories. We go deep into these stories and how to rewrite them during The Limitless Life Transformational Event, so don't miss it.  [5:00]

• "I was missing the moments with the people I was working so hard for. "

You know the story. You're busy writing an email, checking on a client, fixing a problem in your business, all the while missing out on dinnertime with your family, or a big game for your son or daughter, and losing time that you can't get back. This is my why. Having the freedom to be fully present with my people is my version of success.  [9:10]

• "The potential you have is not outside of you."

You already have it in you. It's given by God. You were given this massive potential to transform people and help them achieve better lives, better business, better health, better wellness… whatever you were called to do, you are equipped for. You just need to learn how to use what you've been given.  [11:43]

If we are held back and if we never fully step into our true, already present, God-given potential we are failing. 

But failure is just a catapult. It's how you look at failure that can send you soaring.

You have everything you need to rewrite your success story. 

You were called to make an impact in this life and you were given all of the potential you need to do it. 

It's time to break the chain of limiting beliefs that are holding us back and begin to excel - without endless effort. 

Lean into your potential and reach that vision you set out to accomplish at the beginning of this year. 

90 days left. 

How will you use them? 

Let me tell you.

"This podcast is amazing! I learn something new every week. Dr. Shannon is very knowledgeable and she uses her story and experience to help you succeed! She is always bringing new guests to help her audience's growth and live an epic life." 

I absolutely love sharing the brain-based process of creating success in your life & business with you each week on the Epic Success podcast! Reviews are how I know you're finding value and help me share Epic Success with more people!

If you have something you want to say about the Epic Success podcast, I'd love it if you'd post a 5-star review on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Whether you're trying to climb the corporate ladder, create freedom in your life, or you just know that you were meant for more…

As high achievers, as visionaries, we're always striving for more, more, more. 

And that mentality comes from the thinking that there is just not enough. 

There's not enough time, there's not enough money… 

But (great news!) that is just not the case.

Your brain is filtering your surroundings from a scarcity mindset. This causes us to believe that there isn't enough success for everyone out there and you have to hustle to achieve. 

The word abundance pretty well encapsulates what we are all trying to create. 

When we can shift our minds from lack to abundance, we are actually able to create more time and create more money, and see our lives and businesses through the lens of abundance. 

In this episode of the Epic Success Podcast, I chat with a member of my tribe, Alex Lianne Carter, who has transformed her life and business through the Epic Success Program and continued on to the NeuroCoaching Certification™. Alex has an amazing story of going from a limited thinking process and lacking, to a true unleashing of her potential and abundance.  

Abundance is deciding what success looks like for you in advance... Listen in to learn more.

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "I am creating this life for us, and it's okay to give myself permission to be here." 

We have been so indoctrinated to believe that we need external validation and permission from others that we often forget who is *really* in charge of creating the life we want. You do not need to wait for others to tell you that it is okay to take the next step or enjoy this moment… Ensure you have alignment with what you want to create and what you want to experience, not what you were programmed to do.  [10:15]

• "Abundance is deciding what success looks like for you in advance. "

We often fall into the trap of pushing precious moments to the side in order to reach a certain level of what others would consider success. But time is fleeting and we need to reprioritize what success actually means to us. The moments with your family that you no longer have to sacrifice are equally as powerful as a $100,000 launch.  [11:45]

• "You can wake up every single day and know that anything is possible for you"

You are the creator of your life and your reality. You are worthy of reaching your limitless potential. You get to step fully into your potential by looking toward that future version of yourself, experiencing what it is to become that person, and having the limitless life that you're after. [26:10]

We have one life to live and we get to choose to live it to the fullest. 

There's a limitless potential just waiting to be unlocked.

You can tap into your full potential, create success from the inside out, and live a life of your design.

For your life.

For your family.

For your business. 

I firmly believe that our Creator put us here on this planet to live up to that potential. 

Which is why I've created a proven system to unlock your full potential, maximize your time, and make the greatest impact (without wasting time second-guessing or just trying harder with nothing to show for it). 

Join me LIVE starting on October 14th for a free, LIVE transformational series where you'll define exactly what YOUR success looks like, tap into your true potential, and get the exact blueprint to finally step into your inevitable success.

Ditch the scarcity mindset and step into the abundance you were created for where success feels easy, light, fun, and fulfilling because you are not just checking off goals, you are exceeding goals and moving from one success to another.

Do you know what it feels like to hit the glass ceiling of success?

Maybe you have this big dream, this big vision, where you know you're called to more, but it seems like no matter how hard you try or how much progress you make, the success you want is juuusssst out of reach and somehow unattainable.

I know that feeling. I've been there. 

Feeling like God has put a calling on your heart, a desire that you might not be living up to fully.

And even though you can feel overwhelmed to the point of wanting to give up sometimes, you just can't. There's a fire driving you forward.

Because you know. 

You can break through that glass ceiling to your potential on the other side. 

You can achieve limitless success. 

In this episode of the Epic Success Podcast, I chat with a client and friend of mine, Joy Foster, who has gone through the Epic Success Program and continued on to the NeuroCoaching Certification™. Joy dives into her experience of wanting so much more for her life and business, hustling endlessly and feeling limited, to a place of abundance and unlocking limitless potential. 

Ready to hear first hand about the success strategy that unlocks your full potential? 

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "I was constantly frustrated, because I wanted more." 

Joy knows what it feels like to have hidden blocks in your mind that are keeping you from unlocking your limitless potential. Luckily, the changes she implemented in the Epic Success Program to break through those blocks are permanent, and she now has a system that she can build on to access her limitless potential.  [3:05]

• "BAR: Believe, Act. Results. "

It's okay to want the next level once you've experienced achievement! It's a normal part of being human to raise the BAR. When you know how your mind works, you will stop working against the success that you want. Creating success in your life doesn't have to be as hard as we've been indoctrinated to believe it is. You don't have to strive and hustle and sacrifice in order to experience achievement. [7:16]

• "If you don't have the fundamental belief system down, you're going to stay stuck."

Every strategy on the market is not going to work if you don't believe that it will. I know that sounds simple, but it really does come down to priming your brain and rewiring that negative belief system in order to unlock your limitless potential. [19:30]

Take a moment to think about how your life would change if you could finally get full access to ALL of your brain's untapped potential.

What would become possible for your business? Your income? Your family? Your relationships? Your health? Your peace and satisfaction?

What if the key to ALL of that is a blueprint that your mind has not had access to …..until now?

I absolutely love sharing the brain-based process of creating success in your life & business with you each week on the Epic Success podcast! Reviews are how I know you're finding value and help me share Epic Success with more people.

If you have something you want to say about the Epic Success podcast, I'd love it if you'd post a 5-star review on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Forewarning: I'm just a little passionate about this subject. 

So, I'm just going to come right out and say it: you're being sold something that doesn't serve you. 

No, I'm not talking about that product your next-door-neighbor sells as a side hustle. 

I'm talking about the idea of "working on your mindset". 

Honestly, what does that actually mean? 

The concept of "mindset" has become so polluted and overused in the marketplace.

The reality is, if you want to be successful in your business and life, you have to understand that creating success is not about "working on your mindset" with wishing, hoping, and trying harder.

Instead, shifting your mindset begins with understanding the way your brain works and training your thoughts to reflect your reality. You must purposefully step in to train your brain what and how to think.

In this episode of the Epic Success Podcast, I go into a bit of a rant, but it's all for your benefit. I've been watching common messaging around mindset online and it gets me impassioned, because there is actual science behind how to control your thinking. Mindset relies too much on willpower, which will fatigue like any other overused muscle.

If you're ready to step into the empowered position of training your brain instead of wishing and hoping for a prescribed mindset, let me show you how. 

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "It's not about mindset. It's about training your brain." 

It's your brain's job to keep you safe, not successful. You must become purposeful and take the lead in hardwiring your brain for success. "Mindset" is something that is being sold to you but that isn't serving you. It relies on willpower. Listen in to hear why mindset work is not the most efficient use of your time and attention. [4:09]

• "Nothing is a setback. Everything happens for you."

But… you cannot just say "everything happens for me" and believe it without the brain priming that gives your brain direction for what you want to happen. You must build the neural-pathways to bring you the success you define and desire. [6:36]

• "Your subconscious mind doesn't think on its own. It does what you tell it to over and over again."

That's why you get stuck - when you don't purposefully tell your brain what you want through brain priming. Therefore, the brain's only option is to then fall back on old and familiar thought patterns that no longer serve you. When you really start to use these tools and put the power of the brain to work for you, you see your relationships, health, environment, and business improve. [11:04]

Your breakthrough is so much closer than you realize. 

The only thing that's holding you back is the way you think: your automatic programming and how you're training your brain towards your future.

The person you were always intended to be is there inside of you.

Start taking daily steps toward your success through breaking down old limiting beliefs and priming in what you want. 

If you want some guidance on this, you can start with some brain priming audios I recorded for you to use each morning and night. 

My goal is to see YOU become the creator of your thoughts and not merely "work on your mindset" without creating lasting and effective change.

Take a moment and really think how your life would change if you could finally get full access to ALL of your brain's untapped potential.

What would become possible for your business? Your income? Your family? Your relationships? Your health? Your peace and satisfaction?

What if the key to ALL of that is a blueprint that your mind has not had access to …..until now?

In your business?

In your relationships? 

How would we answer these questions if we were honest with ourselves? 

As entrepreneurs, we often sacrifice things that are super important in our lives for the idea that once I arrive at 'x' figure, or once I get this promotion, or once I get to this place in my business… 

…then I will reach my definition of success.

…and then I can finally show up and have those moments that I've been missing.

But then the sense of urgency steals the joy of it, because those moments are slipping away. 

This week on the Epic Success Podcast, I'm talking about leaning into untapped potential and how your brain wires and fires actual success. There is a key difference between those who are living a limitless life (limitless business growth, limitless impact, and limitless relationship satisfaction) and those who constantly feel a cap on their ability to reach new levels.

If you're feeling capped in one, or all of these departments, I've got good news for you: there is a systematic, strategic success system operating in your mind that you might not have connected with yet. 

Ready to access it? Let's dive in.

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "We've been indoctrinated into this outside-in model of success that was broken and it doesn't work." 

If you feel tired, or even exhausted, from not hitting your true potential it's because you're part of this stop-start-cycle! It's what I like to call "stressed success". We start something, go all in on this thing, whatever it is. You start, but then hit a roadblock. And we start searching for someone to give us permission or validation to move past it. [6:31]

• "If the lie of 'work harder, work harder, work harder' were true, you would already be living a limitless life."

You've worked hard. You've committed yourself and sacrificed and still feel far from the finish line. It's because hard work doesn't equal success. You have everything in your brain to wire it for success, and it starts with what you think, not what you do. [10:30] 

• "Your brain has to see it before you believe it." 

You cannot get to your true success without slowing down long enough to ask yourself, "What does a limitless life actually look like?" When you think about what your true, God-given potential is, you can picture your life in limitless standards. [18:26]

Are you slowing down long enough to show your mind, and your heart, where it is that you're going? 

What is that definition of success for you?

Don't sacrifice all of those important moments to cross a finish line that you didn't choose for yourself. 

I challenge you today to unpack what that success looks like.

Choose your success.

Choose your path to get there. 

Maintain momentum. 

You are limitless.

Can we talk for a minute about the illusion of balance? 

Especially in 2021, it feels like we are busier than ever. 

We have multiple interests and responsibilities to juggle, and no amount of color-coded calendars will give us the elusive "balance" we really want. 

The truth is, we don't know what balance is, we just know we don't have it.

If you're ready to get clear on what balance can look like in your life, listen in!

This week on the Epic Success Podcast, I talk with a dear friend of mine, Christy Wright. She's a number one best-selling author and founder of The Business Boutique. We're talking all about taking your time back, with her new book, Take Back Your Time - A Guilt Free Guide to Life Balance,  that is in pre-order right now. 

Christy has a gift for showing you exactly how to look at all areas of your life, ditch the idea of balance and really take your time back with practical advice. 

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "What if balance isn't something you do? What if balance is something you create in your life?" 

What if balanced is something you become? Where you can feel a sense of balance even when you're busy? Where balance feels less like productivity and more like peace? This is what Christy believes we are actually after. [3:45]

• "Life balance isn't doing everything for an equal amount of time. It's about doing the right things at the right time." 

When you do the right things at the right time, you actually feel that sense of balance that you've been looking for. Not only do you feel balanced in the moment, you shake the guilt for all of the things you're NOT doing. 

  [6:20] 

• "Priorities have a season." 

Not everything is a priority all of the time. There will be seasons of your life where certain things that typically feel like a priority will have to take a backseat. This is hard for many people (myself included) to swallow in a world where we've been indoctrinated to do it all, all of the time. This means you shouldn't consider yourself a failure when you're doing what is right, right now.  [8:20]

Disclaimer: you will still have days where you have multiple things that you love very much competing for your attention. You will have to make a choice, and it will not feel easy. 

Your season and your circumstances will help you determine what is right at the right time. 

You have to stop focusing on where you are not, and instead choose to keep your attention where your feet are. This helps you focus on what's in front of you and shake the guilt for the things you're not doing. 

Today is the day to preorder Christy's book Take Back Your Time - A Guilt Free Guide to Life Balance! I'm serious, this book is incredible and I'm already working through my second read of it. 

Speaking of taking your time back, I am thrilled to give you my Productivity Powerhouse Plan  for FREE!  Following these 15 steps gave me 2-3 hours back in my day and literally changed me from being a stressed-out hamster on a hamster wheel to a highly productive and very successful (as defined by me) entrepreneur – living an EPIC life and having a business I love!

How often as entrepreneurs do we feel overwhelmed, and spread too thin? 

Our to-do list feels miles long. 

We jump from one task to another because they're all important and all require our attention. 

And we can never get everything done that we want to in the day. 

We have a hard time focusing on just one thing.

But instead of crossing tasks off our lists, this leaves us with multiple half-finished tasks, and the overwhelm is still there. 

Even though you may be accomplishing more than most, you still don't feel successful.

Let me tell you, friend, it doesn't have to be this way. 

This week on the Epic Success Podcast, I share with you 9 time-saving habits: a system used by highly productive, high-achieving entrepreneurs that you can use to gain hours back in your day! I can't wait to share with you these tips that will help you be more productive, crush your goals, and reach your biggest dreams.  

If you're ready to take back control of your time, grab something to write with and listen in!

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "You need to define what success means to YOU." 

What does it mean to be successful for you? And what does it mean to feel successful every day? Listen to this episode for a crucial brain-based exercise where you will picture yourself as successful and write down some important details . Make sure you tune in to this part, because this is where it all starts.  [7:35]

• "Make sure you plan out your days the night before, with 3 things you need to complete to call the day a success."

This starts the night before. When you have a clear vision for the next day, write down your three non-negotiable things that absolutely must get done. In the morning, when you're looking at your notes from the night before, if those three things are still priorities (nothing else has come up), then schedule them in your planner. See the next step ;)  [17:01]

• "Time block and schedule your to-do list!"

Do you know how highly successful entrepreneurs get things crossed off their to-do list? They put it in their schedule! They take their top three important tasks to complete, and block out a few hours of their day to complete those tasks. This allows you to have scheduled time to commit to these priorities. You don't schedule meetings during that time or wander off to complete other tasks. Commit to the time you've assigned for those priorities.  [18:00]

It was hard to pick just a few key points to highlight in this episode, so make sure you dig into the entire episode and take notes on each of the nine steps of this plan! 

Bottom Line: You can have stress and achievement in a way that isn't stressful or overwhelming. 

This Powerhouse Productivity™ Plan is such an impactful tool that allows us to get HOURS back in our day.

I am thrilled to give you my full implementation plan for all of these 9 steps (plus 6 more) that literally changed me from being a stressed out average achieving hamster on a hamster wheel to a highly productive and very successful (as defined by me) entrepreneur – living an EPIC life and having a business I love!

"This podcast hits home because she talks about real stuff. The guests aren't all just experts but they seem like they are friends. She is a wonderful interviewer and the actionable advice helps me think about my business. She has such a great variety of guests on her show! Thanks Dr. Shannon!"

If you have something you want to say about the Epic Success podcast, I'd love it if you'd post a 5-star review on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

We've been talking a lot about habits here recently. 

You might be wondering:

"How do I create a good habit that actually sticks?"

Committing to creating a successful habit is easier said than done.

Motivation is flimsy at times and willpower doesn't necessarily hold out when we need it to.

But habits don't come from motivation or willpower.

They come from commitment and repetition.

They come from pushing through weak or even non-existent motivation.

They come from reminding yourself of your "why" and using that to take the next step.

This week on the Epic Success Podcast, I dive deep into harnessing the power of your brain to create lasting habits. I'm taking the mystery out of habit change! We will look at how our brains are wired and how that knowledge can help you finally kick old habits to the curb and adopt those healthy and productive habits you desperately need in order to create the life and business you really want.

If you're ready to take control of your habits and daily routine, grab something to write with and listen in!

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "YES - You can create the habits that you want in your life." 

It's a matter of knowing what your repeated mental states are and what that does in the brain. Anything that we repeat over time becomes a neural trait, and the more we repeat it, it becomes more ingrained in our brain, and the more it becomes automatic. [3:34]

• "The first time you go to do something new, especially if it's replacing something that already has a pattern set up, your dopamine response comes after the event."

When you get your willpower all charged up to attempt the new habit, your dopamine response doesn't come until after the event. Waiting for the dopamine each time you attempt the new habit can make it harder to complete, but let me tell you: each time you complete that habit, your dopamine will release earlier and earlier, making it easier to complete when your willpower is weak. [11:55]

• "If you're serious about getting this habit change done, do it first thing in the morning!"

If you wait until the end of the day to try and work in that new habit, you'll come up with every excuse in the book because your willpower (just like a muscle) is tired from being exercised all day. It's depleted. This is why relying on willpower alone won't get you the habit change you're after. You have to commit to consistency. [18:44]

Remember: you control your thoughts! And your thoughts control your habits. 

Creating habits and routines that work for you, and being C O N S I S T E N T with them is where you will see success.

When your motivation is withering, you'll be able to lean on the firm foundation of the habits and routines you've put into place.

Take this science and have it work for you today and write down the 5 habits you'd like to change or add and prioritize them. 

Use the science you've learned and start with 1 habit. 

You've got this.

Did you know, on average, a person makes over 30,000 decisions in a single day? 

And that's just on average. 

As an entrepreneur, you're faced with even more decision making as you navigate building your business.

Do you feel you just react to things that happen in your business and then quickly decide based on your emotions in that given moment? Or even feel like you can't decide at all? 

… I've been guilty of this too...

And I know from personal experience that it can often feel like things are happening to us, leaving us feeling wildly out of control.

As much as I know you are wanting to become the creator of your thoughts and life, it can often feel like the decisions you're faced with are largely out of your control.

Truth is, those decisions that you're making are created from thoughts, and you have 100% control over your thoughts. All your decisions create your reality. 

This week on the Epic Success Podcast, I want to empower you to take control of your decisions by taking control of your thoughts. There is magic when you decide what you no longer want to believe, then take actionable steps to start building new neural-pathways so that you can adopt the beliefs you want in your life.

If you're ready to shift from excuses to empowering decisions and actions, buckle up and listen in!

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "You are always deciding to advocate for either your limiting beliefs or future self." 

You are always advocating for the decision that will either take you to where you want to be or keep you held back. You're always deciding how you perceive success, failure, love, money - everything. The interpretation that you give each situation is a decision. [2:46]

• "Deciding in advance gives your brain what it needs in order to help you continue to make that decision become reality."

You've got to decide in advance how you're going to fail, how you're going to show up, how you're going to navigate challenges. Why? Because if you want a life you've never had before, you have to do things you've never done before. If you really want that new reality to stick, you've got to start by building neural-networks of success in your brain. [6:11]

• "How you perceive every good and not-so-good thing in your life - the interpretation you give it is a decision."

The key to building neural-networks for success in your brain is to understand that everything is an interpretation and that you get to decide. You can then interpret things through the filter that you want to versus just the filter that's been there since childhood. [7:11]

The only thing holding you back is the story you're deciding to believe that is not serving you anymore. 

It's time to go out and decide today what it is you really want and take one action towards it. 

Start training your brain now and take even one step towards what you want (think your business, or your family, or your life).  

This will create the momentum, and then the success you're after.

Do you ever notice that some days it all clicks and aligns and you feel like you're thriving?

Those days are the best. 

But then why is it that there are so many other days you feel like you're striving to survive and make it all work?

Well, I'll tell you a secret.

It's normal to always be learning and evolving. 

The key is to check in with ourselves, ask better questions and keep moving towards our next-level self. 

You know, that version of you that's not chasing the validation of value but instead adding value to others from a place of abundance. 

This week's episode of the Epic Success Podcast is all about choosing your way of being. The difference between these two ways of being - thriving versus striving - comes down to two things: our mindset and our focus. 

Are you ready to transform your daily mindset? Let's dive deeper...

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "You can't make transformation happen through working harder and striving."

I know, this is the opposite of what society and culture is teaching you. Stick with me.The first key to seeing transformation in your business starts in your mind. Are you focused on doing, striving, and staying on the move but find you are not actually moving forward? This is a fixed mindset that will limit your success despite how hard you are working. Focus on transforming your thoughts to reflect a growth mindset. Keep moving forward and remember - failing is inevitable and can be our biggest teacher. [2:15]

• "If we're going to grow our business to 6 and 7 figures, we've got to grow our thinking to get us there."

Ask yourself the questions: what is this bringing to me? How is this serving me and allowing me to serve others? Will this allow me to grow? The antithesis to a growth mindset is perfectionism. Ditch the hardwired story of "I don't have what it takes" or "I'm not good enough" and allow yourself to view every step of your journey as an opportunity to learn, grow and serve. [13:40]

• "I'm 100% responsible 100% of the time."

The second key to transformation is external versus internal focus of control. An external focus of control blames everything around you. An internal focus of control takes responsibility for everything. When you come from an internal focus of control, you ask "what can I learn and what can I take from it into the future to become better, stronger, faster, smarter?" Things will happen to you which may be out of your control - how you perceive those things happening, is the difference between being taken out of the game or growing to the next best version of yourself. [18:54]

It's vital to understand that circumstances don't control us. If you have a growth mindset with an internal focus of control, you can ask better questions and become the creator of your thoughts. 

Everything around you is for you - as long as you are open, asking the right questions, listening and ready to take your thinking to the next level. 

Everything you need is completely within you.

Step into the growth mindset and remember that every lesson that comes to you is an invitation to become the best version of yourself.

Habits. 

We all have them. 

Some of them, like daily exercise, are habits we want to build or maintain. 

Others, like staying up too late, are habits we'd like to break. 

Trying to create a new routine with positive and productive habits can seem difficult to maintain on the surface, but when you look at the brain science behind building a habit (or breaking one) it's not as daunting as you might think. 

This week on the Epic Success podcast, I'm sharing how habit success is an inside job. One thing I know from my studies of NeuroPsychology is that becoming successful, in business AND life, is a result of the daily habits of what you think. It all comes back to my brain-based NeuroCoaching Model™, which I'm giving you a peek of in today's episode! 

Are you ready to learn how to hack your brain to create habits that work for you, and your business? 

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "A habit is just a decision repeated over time, just like a belief is just a thought repeated over time."

A habit starts in the mind with what you're allowing your brain to think. From your thoughts and beliefs you make decisions and actions, which turn into habits over time. Successful people are those with effective habits that drive their daily routine. So, if you want something different in your life and business, then you need to train your brain to control your thought patterns first. [3:15]

• "Wake up every day postured to lean into your intention and put your mind in a state where you will be the creator of your thoughts and put everything in your calendar."

We're told that forming a habit takes 21 days, but that just isn't the case - I've got brain scans to prove it ;) . After training your brain for 21 days, the neural networks in your brain for the old habit and the new habit are exactly the same in strength. At that time, you have a choice to go back to the old habit or continue to build the new, desired habit. You might be surprised how long it really takes to build a new habit - tune in to find out.  [6:36]

• "We've got over 30 neurochemicals that can be working for you towards these habits."

One hack you can do to make habit building easier is to put a calendar up where you can physically mark off each of the 67 days as you build the new neural networks to create your new habit. Your brain loves that and rewards you with more positive neurochemicals! [9:14]

You are in control of your brain, which controls your habits. And the good news is you can take it one habit at a time, one day at a time. 

The key to removing old neural networks and creating new ones is consistency.

Don't worry about the 67 days for your new habit - just wake up each day and focus on your thoughts for that one day. Consistency day by day creates momentum!

We talk about money here all the time. 

We talk about money stories and automations in your brain that cause you to think a certain way about money. 

And if you grew up with any kind of background in faith, you might have some really broken stories around what money is, what it isn't, and what it really means in the Kingdom of God. 

This week on the Epic Success Podcast, I talk with my dear friend and founder of Dream Factory Co., Adam Flores. One of Adam's super powers is helping faith-based entrepreneurs step into their biblical principles around success and money! 

This is an impactful episode for entrepreneurs with a biblical background. Do you have something to take notes with? I can't wait to dive in! 

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "The spirit of poverty is an outside voice of the enemy getting you to believe what you're lacking." [2:58]

An example of this is from The Garden. Adam and Eve are in this world full of abundance and the enemy was able to narrow their sights on the thing they lacked. How often are we focusing on what we are lacking instead of our blessings? 

• "Success is not just breaking through with mindset, it's also learning how to break your circumstances." [12:14]

If you're in a season of oppression right now in your life, whether that is physical, spiritual, marital, or emotional, one of the things to ask God is to reveal what is really happening in your life. So often we zoom in so close on what is happening to us that we can't see past it to what God is calling us toward in this part of our life.  

• "It's not just scripture, it's how God wired our physical beings." [19:12]

Our brain has to believe something in order to create it. It can't create a new reality based on us faking a belief. So our neurochemicals don't fire until we speak things out as if they already exist. It's always wild to me that this isn't just spiritually wired, but God designed our brains that way. 

You're not battling with yourself, you're battling with the spirit of poverty which is generational.

The environment we grew up in, whether it was amazing or hell-on-earth, or somewhere in between - it doesn't matter. Someone else's truth about money, failure, worth, and success became your automations. These beliefs were repeated enough to be automated in your brain. 

So how do we break past a poverty mindset and rewire our brain (and our money story) for success? 

We have to call out the lie from the enemy that is causing us to live with a spirit of poverty. The lie has been repeated… it is automated… It's now hardwired.  

But it's not over. God has given us the science to change that automation and escape the lie from the enemy and live in the Truth, which God reveals to us when we spend time with him. 

And, once you know the truth, you're able to refute the lie and rewire that path in your brain to automate success. 

What a powerful conversation with Adam! I'm so glad he came on The Epic Success Podcast to talk about overcoming the Spirit of Poverty and stepping into your God-given calling. 

If you'd like to hear more from Adam and go deeper with his teaching make sure you check out his podcast, Spirit Driven Success which releases two episodes a week!  

Also check out his membership, which you can join for only $1 for the first month where Adam gives you tangible strategies to overcome poverty mindset!

Take a moment and write a review and share it with me!!  I love featuring my listeners. 🧠💛

Dr Shannon

If you're in the world of business, you are familiar with copy and messaging. 

As business owners, the goal is to deliver our message to potential clients in a way that makes working with us a no-brainer. 

But in a world with every bit of information at your client's fingertips, how do you make your messaging stand out? 

How do you avoid the easy route of mimicking someone else's message and truly delivering your own? 

This week on the Epic Success Podcast, I talk with messaging and copywriting expert, Ray Edwards. Ray is a best selling author who has a talent for speaking (and writing) in a way that gets your unique message out into the marketplace. His new book How to Write Copy that Sells (aka my copy bible) is an incredible tool that teaches how to narrow in on your central message. 

Did you grab something to take notes with? Because you'll want to jot down these actionable takeaways. Let's dive in! 

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "Anybody can follow the framework and fill in the blanks and you'll get pretty good results, maybe, but what makes you stand out is if you have a point of view." 

 That's the real secret: a unique message that's important to you. It might be the thing that you're least comfortable talking about, because it's your unique pivot point in the universe that only you can represent. You have a message that will resonate with a certain group of people, but only if they hear your actual message and not the one you think you should be given. [1:54]

• "It's not about what you think it should be about. It's about the thing under the thing."

Like the Avengers. It seems to be about superheroes, but it's really not. It's about us. Each of us has these weird abilities that only we have. That's the thing under the thing. And if you can talk about that, you will capture people's attention in a way that no copy tricks or hacks will ever do. [6:30]

• "How do we turn 'story' into something that helps us get people to move along the path to a decision that is in their best interest? Practice." 

Break free of the lie that you are not a good storyteller. You just haven't practiced. You can use the stories you have, those lived experiences, to connect to your clients. Your story might be about you, but how you turn that into copy and messaging is by making it about your clients. [28:30] 

Why are we so afraid to put our own "thing under the thing" out there into the world? 

Because it's our place of greatest vulnerability, our place of greatest insecurity. The brain is designed to keep us alive and safe and to avoid vulnerability.  

But in vulnerability, you'll find connection. 

To get the message across in your business, you have to understand what your message is and what your unique experience is. 

There are thousands of other people who teach you how to write and communicate in your business, but there is only one person with your unique perspective on it and that's you. 

You have to be okay with people seeing you, and not the image you'd like to project. 

Something shifts in your brain when you show up without having to edit. Your brain is no longer working overtime in the background trying to figure out the story you're going to tell or the lie you created. 

I'm so grateful for Ray and his unique message and I'm so glad to bring it here on the Epic Success Podcast. 

Make sure that you grab your copy of Ray's book How to Write Copy that Sells to really uplevel your messaging and reach your perfect clients.

"Wow, Dr. Shannon really brings it on this podcast! I love that she's faith-centered and lets us behind the curtain on how she's built her business!"

If you have something you want to say about the Epic Success podcast, I'd love it if you'd post a 5-star review on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

As an entrepreneur, you cannot avoid the discussion about money…

And the topic of money often gives people a strong emotional reaction.  

The fact is, your stories about money are governing 90% of your daily actions and decisions. 

But do we really know where our feelings about money came from? 

So much of it is built in the subconscious from what you learned in your childhood and young adulthood.. 

Once you change those money stories it changes your life forever. When you do that, you put yourself in a position to dream, to take what you can control and lean into your dream. 

Think: why not me?

This week on the Epic Success Podcast, I talk with my friend and personal financial expert Rachel Cruze. She has written a (soon-to-be-best-selling) book, Know Yourself, Know Your Money all about understanding your patterns with money and how that plays a role in your business. 

I'm so excited for this episode! Ready to tackle your money story? Let's dive in! 

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "Money is communicated two ways in a household, it's communicated verbally, but it's also communicated emotionally." 

Your childhood growing up was your "money classroom": it's where you learned the good and the bad about money. Your understanding of money is developed in a unique way because of who your parents are and what you were taught, and of course who you are as a person. When you take all this into account, you get four "money classrooms". In each classroom, different feelings and understanding of money are developed. Listen in to hear Rachel break this down! [4:27]

• "I had to do some serious unpacking of my money story before my mind would let me move on." 

So much of what we know and believe about money is rooted in our subconscious. We find ourselves thinking certain thoughts around money and we aren't even sure why. It takes time and effort to access your money story and rewire that to see money in a more healthy mindset. [11:50]

• "Our savings is attached to our dreaming."

When you aren't dreaming, when you don't have goals, you probably aren't saving. There isn't any motivation to save! You are encouraged to dream and to look toward the future. Whatever the dreams you have for your life, put tangible goals on them and use money to make them possible. [18:35]

Wow. 

Rachel is so knowledgeable and she teaches with such clarity! 

I'm so thankful for her insight and wisdom - and I encourage you to run (not walk) to get her incredible new book, Know Yourself, Know Your Money.

This might be the best book I've read this year (seriously, I read it twice AND did a book club with it), and I'm so confident you will find this book to be powerful and impactful.

Ready for a truth bomb? 

There is no secret ingredient. 

That shiny thing that's being marketed to you guaranteeing your instant success? 

It's just really good marketing. 

There are, however, effective and ineffective systems and habits that actually grow (or stall) your business. 

How do you get your audience to convert to leads, who then pull the trigger after they realize they want what you've got, or better yet, they need what you've got?

This week on the Epic Success Podcast, I talk with my friend and mentor James Wedmore. James is a 7-Figure Online Business Systems Expert. He is the go-to guy for giving you the processes, systems, and strategies that helps struggling entrepreneurs go from overworked and burnt out - to inner-driven and thriving digital CEOs. 

Are you ready to learn exactly what it is that will drive serious growth in your business? Get something to write with because James is giving away his knowledge for FREE today! Let's dive in! 

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "Some of these things that I would say are ineffective are actually very effective at producing results, the problem is they are not the results you want." 

This is actually pretty dangerous for your business. Yes, you're getting a result and a sense that "something is working" - and that is leading you further astray. Think of popularity. Popularity doesn't equal profitability: there are a lot of popular, broke people out there. Remember, a follower is not a lead. [5:37] 

• "Social media can be used as a tool when it is used the right way, intentionally." 

[24:17]

I repeat: a follower is not a lead. So, how do you move someone from a follower to a lead, where they go from "I found you." to "I know you." to "I'm interested."? Even after they become interested, they're still not a customer. Just like a relationship, there are phases you have to go through before you can get that "Yes!".

• "How you choose to show up in that business is what gives you the life and results you are getting."

You can have a business that makes you feel trapped or a business that gives you freedom and impact. Most success entrepreneurs have experienced both - and what changed wasn't their business. It was them. [48:20]

There is a lot of regurgitated information out there. You can receive a copy of a copy of a copy of information and suddenly, there's no value in that information anymore. 

How are you showing up in your space? 

What causes a person to want to work with you? 

Are you sharing something that is creating more need and more demand for what you're offering? 

Are you sharing your true and authentic self? Or are you being a regurgitated version of someone else? 

Get out of that imposter syndrome so you can own your expertise and bring it to your audience. 

James dropped some serious truth bombs in this episode and there are some incredible takeaways to take into your own business. 

Have you heard? 

The doors to James Wedmore's program, Business by Design (BBD) are finally open! This only happens once a year, and I am so excited for you to have this opportunity. 

I integrated James' processes & launch maps into my very own business, so I learned first hand from James how to launch online! 

Once I integrated the structure from James' program, I could finally get my time back which meant :

• more time with my family!
• never having to miss out on an opportunity to be at my kids' events! 
• having the freedom to spend my time the way I want!

We've been talking all about coaching in this series, and while there are many facets that make up a successful coaching business, when it comes down to it: coaching is all about the relationship. 

As a coach, the relationships you build with your clients can make or break your business. 

As a client, you have to be able to trust that you can truly rely on your coach to guide you and keep you accountable.  

This takes intentional time and effort from both coach and client, which is why it is important that coaches are matched with the right clients. 

#YourVibeAttractsYourTribe 

When you think about your coaching business, what kind of relationships do you have with your clients? 

What kind of community are you building? 

This week on the Epic Success Podcast, I talk with Certified Master NeuroCoaches™, Angela Stillwell and Gina Gonzalez. These women are passionate about our coaching community and are driven by supporting those in the NeuroCoaching Certification™ Program. They've leveled all the way up to Master NeuroCoach instructors and they know they program inside and out! 

Are you ready to learn exactly what it is that sets the NeuroCoaching Certification™ Program apart? Let's dive in!  

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "You're working on it and you're very aware that you're working on it, but subtly. It's like one day, you look and you think, 'Hm, I feel really differently about that thing that used to bother me.'"
  When you do the work within the NeuroCoaching Model™, you give yourself freedom from those limiting beliefs that hold you back from your vision. You are not the only one out there with your "story", and it doesn't have to continue to hold you back.  [4:02]
  

• "That's where the biggest shifts come in: when they do it for themselves first, and then the business." 
  It's all about committing to yourself. You have to do the work and trust the process. Lean into the resistance that you're facing, because that's where the growth is. [16:22]
  
  
• "We're always going to hold your vision, sometimes higher, than you do." 
  Our instructors, and fellow members of the NeuroCoaching™ community, are desperate to see everyone else succeed. That's the kind of community we are building here. We care so much about your vision that your success feels like our success. [27:18]

Coaching is one of those special paths that really creates an impact. 

These are human lives. 

This is what we get to do. 

Getting you to the finish line lights. us. up!  

There are people in the world who are just waiting for you to step into your coaching business. 

They won't coach with Gina or Angela or even me. 

They're waiting for YOU. 

I LOVED this conversation with Angela and Gina and getting to take a deep dive into the NeuroCoaching Certification™ and listening to them share the amazing stories of the NeuroCoaches they get to work with.

I absolutely love sharing the brain-based process of creating success in your life & business with you each week on the Epic Success podcast! Reviews are how I know you're finding value and help me share Epic Success with more people!

If you have something you want to say about the Epic Success podcast, I'd love it if you'd post a 5-star review on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

So, you're thinking about starting a coaching business…

You couldn't have picked a better time to get started.

I'm sure you've asked yourself something along the lines of:

Do I have what it takes to make it as a coach? And how can I do it well?

Being a coach is so much more than just refining your own expertise to share with the world.

It is about using your expertise to serve your clients with excellence.

As a coach, it is your job to help your clients recognize the potential within themselves and maximize their own performance. 

This week on the Epic Success Podcast, I talk with my good friend and Certified Master NeuroCoach™, Chantal Cox! Chantal gives us a behind-the-scenes look at how she went from feeling anxious and overwhelmed about becoming a coach to confidently stepping into her coaching business - FREE of the anxiety and stress that had held her back for so long. 

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "It's not about you as the coach at all."

When your clients say yes to your coaching, they're saying yes to themselves. Focus on who you're serving - that is your top priority in coaching. When you let go of wanting to say the right thing, at the right time, you'll be able to step fully into your coaching business and serve your clients with confidence. [12:13]

I am so inspired by Chantal's journey from:

How do I be a coach?

TO…

Confidently serving her clients out of a place of transformation, completely free of anxiety that she's "doing it wrong." 

She didn't just build a business, she transformed her life. 

And now, she's transforming her client's lives. 

How incredible is that?

Today I want to give a shoutout to one of my Epic Success Podcast listeners who left a 5-star review titled "Success ideas in every area":

"I'm loving the real-world ideas for success in all areas of business! Each episode gives great tips."

I absolutely love sharing the brain-based process of creating success in your life & business with you each week on the Epic Success podcast! Reviews are how I know you're finding value and help me share Epic Success with more people!

If you have something you want to say about the Epic Success podcast, I'd love it if you'd post a 5-star review on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Have you ever felt called to something that you KNOW is right for you - but the resistance you feel is so overwhelming that you can't seem to step forward fully into that calling?

Do you often struggle to lean in and trust the process of growing your business because the results aren't always immediate?

If you relate (even a little bit) to those two questions, this episode is for you!

This week on the Epic Success Podcast, I talk with my friend and Master NeuroCoach™ Instructor, Sarah Nykoruk. Sarah is an outstanding educational leader with an inspiring vision and over 20 years of experience as a teacher and coach for other teachers. Her story will inspire you and motivate you to step forward into your passion and calling - and I can't wait to dive in today. Grab a pen and paper - you're going to want to take notes!

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "We can choose our thoughts."

When a thought pops into our head, we typically take it at face value. And oftentimes, we believe the negative thoughts the most. Here's the great news - it doesn't have to be this way! We have the amazing power to choose our thoughts. Don't stay in the trenches with those negative thoughts - you  can choose the thoughts that will serve you and let go of everything else. [20:08]

• "The process is simple."

If you trust the process, it will become easy - the key is slowing down long enough to do so. Listen into the episode to hear more about how to really lean into the process and possibility of truly rewiring your brain. [33:20]

How amazing is Sarah's journey?

I'm so inspired by her story, and her testimonial on today's episode is proof of the transformation that's possible when you move past the resistance and trust the process.

As a Certified Master NeuroCoach™ Instructor, Sarah's dream is to bring the NeuroCoaching Model™ into schools and classrooms world-wide to empower students, parents and educators to tap into the true power of their brains so they can innovate their practice and foster a culture of passion-led, whole-human learning centred around mental wellness, in which everyone thrives.

Today I want to give a shoutout to one of my Epic Success Podcast listeners who left a 5-star review titled "SUCH an EPIC podcast!":

"Wow, Dr. Shannon really brings it on this podcast! I love that she's faith-centered and lets us behind the curtain on how she's built her business! I'm hooked!"

I absolutely love sharing the brain-based process of creating success in your life & business with you each week on the Epic Success podcast! Reviews are how I know you're finding value and help me share Epic Success with more people!

If you have something you want to say about the Epic Success podcast, I'd love it if you'd post a 5-star review on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Over the past year, on more than one occasion I've found myself in a situation that left me thinking, "What just happened?"

How about you?

We've experienced so much changing, shifting and upheaval in the last year - and it's left many grasping for stability.

Do you feel like you've drifted from routine, stability, comfort, control and/or peace in the past year?

It's okay if you have, and I promise you - you're not alone, and I'm so excited for you to hear today's episode. 

This week on the Epic Success Podcast, I talk with best-selling author and one of my heroes in the faith, Christine Caine. This woman is a POWER HOUSE with an incredible story. We talk all about the drifting that can occur in our lives when we aren't anchored to the right things, and about the freedom and hope that we unlock when we do anchor our lives to what matters most. 

I know that not everyone is a part of the Christian faith, and I respect and honor that - AND I challenge you not to tune out because of that. Christine offers such valuable insight into the things in life that can derail us from the path we're meant to be on and how to get back on track. Let's dive in!

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "You gotta check that you're connected to the anchor."

Think about an anchor on a boat - it has no value if the boat isn't connected to it. The boat will end up drifting in whatever direction the waves take it, leaving it incredibly far off of its original course. Our lives are the same. What is your life anchored to? Listen to the episode to hear more about how to anchor our lives in a way that keeps us strong and steady when the storms of life hit. [28:13]

What is your life anchored to?

I'm sitting with this question, and I encourage you to as well. 

For entrepreneurs especially, there's such a fine line between being all in and anchoring our life and success to trusting God, and thinking that we are in complete control of our success, finances, sales, etc. 

Sometimes anchoring our lives to the right things looks like daily self reminders that we cannot control every single aspect of our lives - but we can control what we're anchoring our lives to as we live out our purpose. 

I'm so thankful for Christine's insight and wisdom - and I encourage you to run (not walk) to pre-order her incredible new book, How Did I Get Here?

This book made such a significant impact on my life, and I'm so confident it will do the same for you!

When you pre-order the book - email support@drshannonirvine.com with your pre-order receipt for a special bonus!

Should I become a coach?

Can I really help people and make an impact?

Can I actually make a profitable business out of coaching?

If you've ever had the idea to get into the coaching industry, a few of these questions may have popped into your head - and I get it!

I've talked to many successful coaches who've pondered these same questions prior to going all in with their coaching business!

This week's episode of the Epic Success Podcast is the second in our 4-part series on How to Build Your Coaching Business! This episode is really special to me because I talk with my dear friend Liz Nutter, who is certified through my NeuroCoaching Certification™ program. 

I love Liz's story of massive transformation and growth, and I know her wisdom and insight is exactly what someone needs to hear today - someone on the cusp of stepping into their true calling and vision.

Have something to take notes with? Awesome - let's dive in!

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "Clarity really came by getting into courageous action."

Stepping into everything that we're made for is no small feat, but it doesn't have to be complicated either. Growth and transformation requires courageous action. Don't let fear get in the way of living out your vision - feel the fear, and do it anyway! You're worth it, friend. [6:46]

• "Consistently showing up and making sure that I got three small, manageable tasks to move my vision and business forward, was a game-changer."

Pursuing your vision can feel daunting at first - but it doesn't have to! Listen to the episode to hear how Liz utilized what she learned through the Epic Success Program and the NeuroCoaching Model™ to focus on just three manageable tasks to move her vision and business forward. That's right - three! [10:38]

Every coach needs to soak in what Liz says in this episode about courageous action - that's what it takes, and your vision and purpose is worth it. 

It's possible to jump out of bed and do what you love to do - it's not too good to be true, and Liz's story is such a beautiful example of that. 

Check out Liz's amazing Facebook community, where she works to support career women in their quest to create work-life balance: Debunking Work-Life Balance for Working Women.

Today I want to give a shoutout to one of my Epic Success Podcast listeners who left a 5-star review titled "It's Truly Epic!!!":

"If you're an entrepreneur, this is the show for you! We all want EPIC Success and Dr. Shannon Irvine has lined up interviews with fantastic business leaders that you're sure to enjoy. Love this show!"

I absolutely love sharing the brain-based process of creating success in your life & business with you each week on the Epic Success podcast! Reviews are how I know you're finding value and help me share Epic Success with more people!

If you have something you want to say about the Epic Success podcast, I'd love it if you'd post a 5-star review on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Once I have _____, then I'll be confident, happy, successful, etc.

Have you ever had this thought?

I'll let you in on a secret - this is a broken confidence model that so many people get caught up in. 

This model creates the idea that in order for us to be confident, we must rely on external circumstances and validation.

If you've gotten to this place, it's not your fault and this episode is for you!

This week on the Epic Success podcast, I talk about a different, brain-based form of confidence. YOU have direct access to this level of confidence right now, and it will flip the switch for you to step into the confidence and growth you're made for. 

Ready? Let's dive in!

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "You've gotta have belief, and repeat that belief enough."

Are you waking up everyday, telling yourself what you want to create and who you want to be? If not, start this practice! Your brain has to believe it before it will see it. Listen in to this episode to learn more about how creating a repeated belief has a significant impact on your actions. [4:38]

• "Step two is really creating the identity of the person you know you want to become."

Here's what I've found to be true about identity: a situation creates a thought, that thought creates an emotion, and these combined create a belief - which ultimately creates your identity. Which means, you have the ability to create the identity of the person you want to become, through the power of your thoughts! [6:29]

Rewiring the way we think about and approach confidence in our lives isn't easy, but it is simple!

It's important to remember that when you feel resistance during this process - it's not a sign that means you should pull back, and in fact, it's often the first sign that you're doing the hard work of rewiring your brain.

Lean into the resistance, trust the process and have your own back - stay committed to practicing what needs to be done in order to become the person you know you're meant to be!

Let today be the day that you step into true confidence - you don't need outside validation to step into all that you're called to be. 

Tell me if this sounds like you:

You want to help people have a better life.

You want to create a life of freedom, impact, and legacy for yourself and your family.

And yet...you don't know EXACTLY what to do or what product to sell in order to make that dream a reality.

Have I hit the mark?

Let me ask you: what would be possible if you had a good coach, a good plan, and somebody that believed in you until you could believe in yourself?

I'll tell you: your whole life would change.

Sales are at the core of any successful business. Whether you're offering a product, service, or coaching program, understanding the brain science behind why clients say "yes" can transform your approach and results. In this episode, I dive into the neuroscience of the sales decision.  trust and safety play pivotal roles in the decision-making process and how you can leverage this knowledge to enhance your sales strategies.

The Neuroscience of Sales on the Epic Success Podcast!

In today's competitive market, building a business—whether online or offline—requires more than just a solid sales strategy. It demands a deep understanding of the neuroscience behind client decision making. With the current environment triggering heightened fight-or-flight responses, clients are more cautious than ever. Learning how to create a sense of trust and safety can make all the difference in your sales approach.

In this week's episode, we uncover the brain science of transformation that I teach through the NeuroCoaching Certification, designed to help coaches achieve 100% transformation for their clients 100% of the time. This skill and model  not only builds raving fans but also scales your business through referrals, renewals, and client retention.

With trust at an all-time low and the need for safety at an all-time high, it's crucial to understand how these factors influence your clients' decisions. The marketplace is crowded with offers, making it essential to differentiate yourself through genuine presence and unique thinking. By tapping into the neuroscience of sales, you can build a stronger connection with your audience, leading to more successful outcomes.

If you've been following along on my journey for a little bit, you know I don't shy away from difficult conversations.

I've loved creating a space where people of all backgrounds and beliefs can come together to learn more about the brain science of success!

Today's episode is a topic that's been on my heart for a while, and it's about a myth that I can't wait to debunk.

This week on the Epic Success podcast, I'm diving into a conversation about faith and science. A common thread that I see weaved within these two subject areas is the notion that they are conflicting ideas - and I can't wait to shed some light on how they actually coexist really beautifully within the brain! I know this topic isn't everyone's cup of tea - so I appreciate you listening with an open mind, and if it doesn't resonate - that's okay, too!

If you're ready to dive in - grab a pen and paper and let's get started!

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "I see a direct correlation between faith and science."

When I look at the scriptures and what God says about how we're wired, I see everything I've learned on my neuropsychology journey - neuroplasticity, synaptic pruning, managing your neurochemicals, brain frequencies, all of it! Listen to this episode to hear more about my research and findings on the correlation between neuroscience and God's word.

[2:19]

I want to leave you with one question: 

No matter where you are in your journey and no matter what you believe - are you showing up and stepping into all that you're capable of?

I believe that YOU showing up and going all in with your calling is glorifying to God, and it's honoring to you and those you serve.

The way that we wire success into our neural networks - the brain science of success - is validated by scripture and was set in stone before our journeys even started.

We were always intended to live this way - it's God's design for you and your life, and I think it's so amazing the ways in which we can utilize neuroscience to tap into and unleash massive success through training our brains. 

So, are you showing up and stepping into all that you are and all that you're capable of?

You're capable, worthy and designed for success - so grab ahold of the YOU and the life you've always dreamed of.

Cheering you on every step of the way!

Tell me if this sounds like you:

You want to help people have a better life.

You want to create a life of freedom, impact, and legacy for yourself and your family.

And yet...you don't know EXACTLY what to do or what product to sell in order to make that dream a reality.

Have I hit the mark?

Let me ask you: what would be possible if you had a good coach, a good plan, and somebody that believed in you until you could believe in yourself?

Have you listened to the Epic Success podcast episode where I talk all about selling out your coaching programs? If not, check that out and then meet me back here!

If you're thinking about becoming a coach, the thought of growing and scaling your business the way you would like to probably intimidates you a little bit, right? (...if it doesn't, you're not dreaming big enough!)

If you're already a coach, you might be asking yourself why your business isn't growing the way you want it to.

I want to encourage you today - these are both valid and common places that soon-to-be coaches and current coaches often find themselves.

Here's something even more encouraging:

If that's you, you don't have to stay there - and I'm here to help you level up!

Contrary to what many think - growing your business and increasing your clientele doesn't require you to market yourself and your business 24/7. Who has time for that?

This week on the Epic Success podcast, I talk all about how to accelerate growth in your coaching business and create super fans out of your clients! I'm diving deep into three key strategies to implement in your coaching business, to grow and scale to the level that you know you're capable of, without having to market yourself around the clock. Got a pen and paper? I can't wait to dive in!

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "When you're growing your coaching business, it's unlike anything else."

Oftentimes, coaches will go through marketing courses to learn how to grow their business - and what happens is that they may yield some growth initially, but it's not a successful strategy for cultivating long-term growth. For someone to say yes to YOUR coaching, it's a personal and vulnerable process for them. A client saying yes to your coaching is really not just a yes to your coaching - it's a yes to themselves. So, in order to market to clients from that perspective - general marketing courses just don't cut it. [2:55]

• "Become obsessed with getting your clients to the finish line of their transformation."

This. Is. SO. Important. The true celebration doesn't happen when a client says yes to your coaching, it happens when that client crosses the finish line of true transformation. As a coach, it's crucial to become obsessed with ensuring your clients cross that finish line and experience real, lasting transformation in their lives. When you run your coaching practice from this foundation - growth will follow. [10:12]

At the end of the day, the growth and success of your coaching business starts with YOU.

YOU have to believe in your coaching business, before you can expect your future clients to.

YOU have to believe you're capable of the growth you're aiming for, before you will see it.

I believe in you - and I encourage you to fully step into believing all that you're capable of within your coaching business this week, because your brain has to believe it before it will see it. Massive growth and success are on the other side of that belief!

Today I want to give a shoutout to one of my Epic Success Podcast listeners who left a 5-star review titled "Great show! Helped change my life":

"I would still be feeling lost and guessing what my next step should be if I hadn't found Dr Shannon Irvine's podcast a few months ago. The insight and knowledge shared by the show's host and guests were essential to start seeing things under a new perspective and, more importantly, to begin acting differently, especially those in those areas I needed the most: mindset, goal setting and productivity. Thank you Dr Shannon for putting this show up and for helping lots of us like me!"

If you're an entrepreneur, I'm sure you felt the collective urgency for stability and certainty that resulted from this past year.

The common theme that I've heard buzzing around the entrepreneur world this past year is:

RECURRING REVENUE

...and I totally get it!

When we have stable, recurring revenue - we're less stressed, have more confidence in the work we're doing and have an improved mental state overall.

The question is...how DO you secure recurring revenue?

This week on the Epic Success podcast, I talk with my friend and Membership Master, Stu McLaren, all about recurring revenue in the form of memberships. Now, if there's anyone to learn from about memberships - it's Stu! He knows his stuff. Join us as we take a deep dive into all things memberships, and how important vital they are to building and maintaining recurring revenue - specifically during uncertain times. Grab a pen and paper, and let's dive in!

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "A lot of times, people will have the thought that it's either a course or it's a membership."

It's not an either/or scenario - courses and memberships are actually one and the same! In a course, people learn what to do and how to do it. Once the course ends, this is when people typically implement what they learned - and that's when community and support is most important! Offering a membership in conjunction with a course allows you to bridge the gap between learning and implementation. [10:29]

• "It doesn't take a lot to get going."

A membership can be as simple as you want it to be. Don't overthink it, and don't get into your head about it. You can keep it simple, and in fact - it's best to keep it simple! Listen in to this episode to hear real-life examples of entrepreneurs who have had successful memberships within different niches and varied audience sizes. [18:02]

• "The number one reason people cancel out of a membership is overwhelm."

It doesn't matter what type of membership it is - if a consumer is receiving a large amount of content, and they don't have the ability to consume it at the same rate they're receiving it, they will become overwhelmed and, ultimately, they'll leave the membership. What does that mean for you? The less content you provide, the more successful your membership will be. It sounds counterintuitive, but it works! [27:55]

Bottom line: memberships are a huge win across the board AND they serve all kinds of business in all industries!

Not only do they provide stability and predictability - but most importantly, they provide us (as entrepreneurs) the opportunity to serve our clients at the deepest level.

I'm so thankful for Stu sharing his membership wisdom with us! AND I have some amazing news for those of you who can't wait to dive deeper into the world of memberships - Stu is hosting a free workshop called "Turn What You Already Know, Love And Do Into A Profitable Membership."

Click here if you're thinking, "I need this workshop!"

In the workshop he outlines:

• How to create a "Success Path" that gives your audience tremendous clarity and direction.
• The most important number that every membership site lives and dies by (he'll tell you what this number is and how to calculate it)
• The 4 reasons that people really buy… hint: it's not what you think.
• And the #1 reason why people cancel from a monthly membership… and how to easily fix it

If you want to build a business that brings in recurring revenue month after month, you need to be there!

Sign me up for the free workshop!

Today I want to give a shoutout to one of my Epic Success Podcast listeners who left a 5-star review titled "Like having brunch with the experts":

"Not only does Dr. Shannon Irvine deliver experts and incredible advice tips for business and life in her podcast, but her interview structure presents an ease that makes you feel like you are sitting with her interviewees at the brunch table listening to an amazing conversation!"

I absolutely love sharing the brain-based process of creating success in your life & business with you each week on the Epic Success podcast! Reviews are how I know you're finding value and help me share Epic Success with more people!

If you have something you want to say about the Epic Success podcast, I'd love it if you'd post a 5-star review on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Have you ever heard someone talk about work-life balance and thought:

"There's no way that's possible in my life."

Because...I definitely have.

Years ago, I had reached a point in my life where I was fully immersed in success stress.

I thought that if I worked hard enough and reached the goals I had set for myself - I could tend to my self-care and other responsibilities afterwards.

Friend, this way of living is a one-way ticket to a life of overwhelm, burn-out, exhaustion and ultimately poor health.

Not only that, but it actually holds you back from the success and growth you're pursuing in your business. 

This week on the Epic Success podcast, I talk with my friend and Chief Executive Officer of Michael Hyatt & Co, Megan Hyatt Miller, about the possibility and necessity of work-life balance to ensure that you win at work and succeed at life. 

Megan and her father, Michael Hyatt, have discovered what they call the "Double Win" of winning at work and succeeding at life - and not only has it radically transformed the way they show up in their lives and business, but they recognize the power this can have in the lives of other entrepreneurs. AND, the best part is, Megan is diving deep into the strategies and principles of this "Double Win" concept in today's episode - so you're gonna want to take notes! 

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "We can't do it all, but what we can do is the most important thing."

The idea that you can do it ALL is a myth. The key to unlocking productivity free from overwhelm and overwork is to focus on doing the most important things. Listen in to the episode for a deep-dive into the 3 areas of your life in which you should be establishing non-negotiable tasks (I'll give you a hint...the first and most important one is all about SELF). [12:37]

• "Constraints foster productivity, creativity and freedom."

That's right - constraints and boundaries are your best friends, not your enemies. Megan describes this concept as a performance strategy that will help you perform better and create more growth in your business than ever before! Amazing, right? Do you want massive growth and productivity? Establish constraints and boundaries within your business and personal life. [15:43]

• "Work life balance is really possible."

Such a simple statement, but so powerful. The elusive work-life balance is not a myth - it's absolutely possible and attainable for YOU! The key is keeping your focus on what matters most - your non-negotiable priorities. Keeping your promises to yourself in those areas will allow you to be your most productive and ideal self both at work, and at home. [23:27]

The reality is - we've been sold the lie that you can DO and BE everything, and it's what is required in order to be successful - and that's just not true, or possible!

Here's what we can focus on:

What really matters and how can I do those things well?

To succeed at home and in your relationships, you don't have to hit the brakes on your ambition - and to be successful at work, you don't have to sacrifice your overall well-being and relational health. 

I'm so thankful for Megan and her wisdom that she shared with us on this episode. Breaking free from success stress and overwork was a GAME CHANGER in my life and my business, and I want the same for you! I can't wait to hear the stories of your "Double Wins" of winning at work and succeeding at life!

Megan Hyatt Miller, and her father, Michael Hyatt, have written an incredible book that teaches you exactly how this can become reality in your life.

It's called Win at Work and Succeed at Life.

And, guess what?!

The book is OFFICIALLY out and available for purchase!

I'm throwing in a special bonus for those of you who order the book! When you order Win at Work and Succeed at Life, share your receipt with me by tagging me on Instagram or on Facebook - and you'll be entered to win a spot in one of my signature brain-based goal-setting programs!

Today I want to give a shoutout to one of my Epic Success Podcast listeners who left a 5-star review titled "Totally what I needed!":

"Dr. Shannon's podcast totally speaks right to my heart! I love how I feel when I finish listening to an episode and can apply what I've learned right away! Thanks Dr. Shannon!"

I absolutely love sharing the brain-based process of creating success in your life & business with you each week on the Epic Success podcast! Reviews are how I know you're finding value and help me share Epic Success with more people!

If you have something you want to say about the Epic Success podcast, I'd love it if you'd post a 5-star review on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Have you ever started a business or a project, put all of your energy into it…only to question if it was really your calling when the passion or drive ran out?

This is something that SO many brilliant entrepreneurs go through, and sadly the place where many are left with a partially-built business. From there, they start over again and again wondering if they will ever find their true calling.

Can I let you in on a secret?

This isn't a calling issue - it's actually a common personality trait if you're a visionary!

If you haven't already, take the Rocket Fuel Visionary & Integrator Assessment to see where you fall on the spectrum. It's so eye-opening! 

AND, if you want a deep dive on the topic - check out my interview with Mark Winters called Rocket Fuel for Your Business: Visionary & Integrator.

A little while back, I was in a training session with my NeuroCoaching Certification™ clients when the topics of "calling" and "boredom" were brought up. In this week's episode of the Epic Success Podcast, I talk all about this, and I have first hand experience because I used to get stuck in this bait and switch cycle too.

A visionary will see things that no one else sees, and will take immediate action. As visionaries, if we don't have people around us who are gifted as integrators - those who LOVE the details, systems, processes, and structure (you know, those things that not all of us are proficient at), then we lose interest and start something new.

If you're ready to STOP using your emotions and "lack of passion" as a reason to turn a hard left in your business, then I've got your back (and brain) in this episode. Have a pen and paper? Amazing - let's dive in!

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "It's not that you're not called to the thing you love to do, it's that you're doing the things that you don't love and therefore it's feeling heavy."

If you're a visionary, you're not passionate about the details - you're passionate about the transformation. That is where you need to be spending your time. The great thing is that there are people who are strong on the integrator spectrum who love the details! Start putting people, systems, and processes in your business that ground you and allow you to show up in the area that lights you up most. [10:45]

• "As a visionary, your success and momentum comes from the other side of structure and systems so you are allowed to show up just in your genius."

Ask yourself, "what are the things that are dragging me down and do I have the support?" If you're saying "But Dr. Shannon, I can't afford to hire an integrator." You can't afford not to because that's where visions and dreams go to die in the, "I can't afford." Your vision and impact on the world depends on you staying grounded in your calling. [13:01]

• "So many people pivot into a new project because it feels less resistant."

This idea that "It should be easy if you're in alignment" is something being taught online that isn't true and really is negligent. You CAN train your brain to believe, "when I step into resistance and do things that seem hard, I am in alignment." So often the most beautiful place of alignment is when you're doing the hardest things you've ever done, and there's no manual because no one has ever gone there before. [15:21]

Your million dollar business is on the other side of you standing in your calling, getting grounded, having support around you, and then leaning into the resistance and the hard things that have never been done before because you are blazing a trail!

I don't want to see any more brilliant entrepreneurs like you fall for the bait and switch, and pivot your business when you're so close to gold.

Until next week, remember, you are the creator of your thoughts. Show your brain exactly what you want... then go out and make it happen!

Do you ever fall into what seems like a never-ending cycle with your business goals?

You hope and wish for success in your business, but never really gain the traction needed for the success you envision?

Yep. It happens, and I've been there...

Did you know there is an actual science-based process that can help you go from planning to action, and ultimately to success?

If you're an entrepreneur who wants to be successful but just haven't reached the point of success that you know you're capable of, then I want to share some science-based secrets that will help you unlock and unleash the success that you already have inside of you.

I had the pleasure of having my friend Hal Elrod, bestselling author of The Miracle Morning and top-rated keynote speaker, on the Epic Success Podcast a little while ago (you can listen to his interview here). We are so aligned with his formula for the Miracle Equation and how it relates to what I teach with the brain science of success.

True transformation takes place in our brains when we shift from the "hope, wish and plan" cycle to the mindset that says, "I am going to believe it will happen and make extraordinary efforts to make sure that it happens."

If you're ready to connect the dots between brain science and unwavering faith, so you can become the person you've always dreamed of - the one who has the success, income, and impact you want, then lean in and grab something to take notes with!

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "Your brain doesn't know the difference between what's happening to you and what you vividly imagine over and over again in your mind."

When you cross into unwavering faith, you start to train your brain to believe that achieving your goals is inevitable. Your brain will have a period of resistance because that area of your subconscious brain is like an overprotective parent. Listen to this episode to learn more about pushing through that resistance, and how your brain responds to that push back - all for your benefit. [3:51]

• "When you truly step into belief, you become the person that already has what you want."

As you repeat this unwavering faith and take consistent action, you're left with this beautiful system working for you, rather than against you. When this happens, you begin to show up differently and transform into a whole new YOU - the version of yourself that already has the success you've been working for. Everything around you begins to align with what you believe. [9:17]

• "Your brain is wired and designed for you to have unwavering faith."

Your brain is always advocating for a belief: either the beliefs that have kept you stuck, or the beliefs that will take you to where you want to go. When you're able to switch your thoughts off autopilot and learn how to remove the limiting beliefs that have held you back - you are that much closer to unleashing massive growth and momentum in your life and your business. [10:18]

What's the one thing that IF it happened, it would become the epic breakthrough for you? 

Here's my challenge for you:

Start to erase the "if" thoughts, because "if" leaves a pathway back to just hoping and wishing for what you want. 

Start to shift those thoughts to "WHEN" thoughts! 

Then, you can start working on building your unwavering faith and believing that epic success will happen for you.

I want you to believe it, so that your brain starts to work for you to unleash the success, impact, influence and freedom in your life that you know you were meant to have.

Do you ever feel like the ONLY way to achieve success is by hustling?

You're all too familiar with that nagging struggle to think about something other than work while trying to enjoy your weekend…

I get it.

I've been there.

And I'm here to tell you there's a better way!

The illusion of hustle culture and the plague of overworking among entrepreneurs and CEOs is literally running businesses into the ground. 

Hustling and overworking is actually pushing you farther away from the success you want, not closer to it.

If you're tired, burnt out and overworked on your journey to success - this episode is for YOU!

This week on the Epic Success podcast, I talk with my friend Michael Hyatt, Author and Leadership Development Expert, about his newest book that he co-wrote with his daughter, Megan Hyatt Miller, titled Win at Work and Succeed at Life.

We talked about the detrimental impact that overworking can have on our lives and business - and how we can overcome and find freedom from the culture of overworking and hustling. 

Michael has spent a significant amount of time studying "the impossible choice" between winning at work OR succeeding at life. It's been said that you can't have both - but Michael has unlocked the power of the two working together harmoniously, and it's a GAME CHANGER. 

You guys - this episode has so much goodness in it that I want to go back and listen to it over and over again. These truths shared by Michael are not just beneficial, they are life-changing! Have a pen and paper? Grab one and let's dive in!!

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "Work is enormously seductive."

Work-a-holism is not a metaphor - it's a real thing, and it generally starts rather innocently with the fact that work is fun as an entrepreneur when you're doing what you love. Work is very much a hobby for many who are working right within their niche. Not only that, but when we see results for our efforts at work - we become even more seduced by those results-based outcomes, which is not always something we experience or see the direct impact of at home. [9:51]

• "Work is only one way to orient your life."

Life is a long-distance marathon, and if you want to go the distance and have comprehensive success, you have to understand that life is multi-dimensional. Work is important, but it's only one way to orient your life and success at work should not be at the expense of the other dimensions of your life. It's so important to remember that balance does not mean you give equal weight and time to each dimension of your life - it means you give the appropriate amount of weight and time. Balance requires constant adjustment, and it will look different in different seasons. [15:16]

• "The power of non-achievement."

Do you base the value of your life on your achievements? This is one of the trademark work-a-holic mindsets - but there are so many value-adding aspects of life that can't be measured, and that occur outside of workplace success. I think some of the best things in life can't be measured. In these places of non-achievement, sometimes, is where we have our greatest ideas. What is it, outside of work, that excites you? Whatever it is, set aside intentional time outside of work to do that thing, and watch how it impacts your work life. [31:08]

• "Sleep is the foundation of productivity."

Sleep deprivation can be extremely detrimental to your overall health, and negatively impacts your workplace performance. Getting a good night's sleep is not the end of your day - it's actually the beginning of your day, and it's the foundation that determines whether or not you'll win the day. [42:08]

You're a human-being, not a human-doing.

You weren't created to do it all.

But…you also don't have to choose to either be successful at work or have a healthy personal life. 

To succeed at home and in your relationships, you don't have to compromise your ambition - and to be successful at work, you don't have to sacrifice the health of your relationships and home life. 

You can win at work AND succeed at life - without being plagued by overwork. 

I hope you're as fired up as I am by this episode, and the amazing truths that Michael shared - and I truly can't wait to hear about the transformation and freedom from overwork that's to come in your life and business!

My friend Michael Hyatt, Author and Leadership Development Expert, went on a quest to debunk the myth that says you can't win at work AND succeed at life.

Michael, and his daughter, Megan Hyatt Miller, have written an incredible book that teaches you exactly how this can become reality in your life.

It's called Win at Work and Succeed at Life.

And, guess what?

If you have something you want to say about the Epic Success podcast, I'd love it if you'd post a 5-star review on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Do you ever feel like there is something holding you back from reaching your full potential? 

Imposter Syndrome? 

Perfectionism? 

Procrastination? 

Overwhelm? 

Imagine getting rid of these brain-based blocks by flipping a Success Switch ON in your brain so that your success becomes easy and effortless. 

I don't want to see you wait any longer to get that business profitable, simply because you haven't tapped into the way your brain operates. 

This week on the Epic Success Podcast, I want to teach you how to become an Unleashed Entrepreneur! I know if I can get your brain into action, everything will shift for you.

There is no You and You 2.0. You 2.0 has always existed! 

Get ready to take notes, action-takers -  and get ready to learn about clarifying, erasing, and automating a network working for you in your brain, drawing you into your dream. Here we go!

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "Getting rid of something is just as important as gaining something." 

In order to tell your autopilot to go to a new destination, you need to get rid of the old map first. Successful entrepreneurs see the world differently and act differently because of it. In order to make this shift, we need to use three processes that I call "Clarify", "Erase" and "Automate". Listen in to learn more about this process -when you do this, you can step into what has always been possible for you."  [29:25]

• "There is an invisible entrepreneur trap that keeps you from the success you want most." 

You have one foot on the gas, but the other foot on the brake, holding you back. Now you know that trap is automated and programmed in your subconscious. Your subconscious is like your autopilot, running 90% of your daily decisions and actions without your knowledge or permission. But that changes today. Once you flip that success switch on you will have networks built in your brain on automation that are running 90% of the show that are 100% aligned with your inevitable success. Your blocks will be neutralized and erased, and your foot will finally come off the brake. [39:50]

• "Your brain is wired to keep you safe and familiar. I teach you to hack this system." 

Perfectionism. Procrastination. Overwhelm. Your brain uses these to keep you safe and familiar. What I'm teaching you and showing you through the Success Switch Method™ is how to hack this system, how to use the brain's systems to work FOR you, to make your success inevitable, and how to remove, those things that have been holding you back..  [46:16]

Friend, you can do this! 

The key is to create a clear vision, and automate success pathways in your brain, while erasing the pathways keeping you stuck! 

The networks in your brain need to see it in order to believe it! Create a decision to create the action and take the steps to Clarify, Erase, and Automate! 

Get rid of all the old automatic maps and build new ones that are aligned with your vision and goals!

Ah, social media!

As an entrepreneur, do you feel like you're in a perpetual state of trying to figure out how to show up on social media?

I get it - you're not alone!

Here's the great news: 

Social media is not really as complicated as it may seem, and when we discover how to best show up on our social media platforms as entrepreneurs - it can shift our entire business and attract real clients!

The key is building relationships with our followers through serving them at the highest level and meeting them right where they're at - all while showing up as our authentic selves.

Customers will purchase goods and services from people they know, trust and have built a relationship with - and that's how we convert our followers to clients AND to raving fans. 

This week on the Epic Success Podcast, I talk with my friend and social media expert, Brock Johnson, about how to valuably show up on your social media platforms as an entrepreneur and the realistic strategies for converting followers into paying clients.  

Get ready to take notes - you don't want to miss any of these practical and revenue-generating social media tools! Here we go!

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "The algorithm is just a computer."

The algorithm on various social media platforms doesn't hate you, it doesn't prefer other people over you - it's really just a computer that determines who sees your posts. Every social media platform has the same goal - that goal is to keep people idling on the platform as long as possible. Therefore, the algorithm will pick posts to show up in front of followers that it determines will keep those followers on the platforms for as long as possible.

[2:48]

• "Followers don't equal sales."

Bottom line - followers don't equal sales. Likes, comments, saves, and shares - those don't equal sales either, and this is really important to remember as we're navigating how we utilize our social media platforms as entrepreneurs. Listen in to the episode to learn what will actually lead to sales through social (hint: it has nothing to do with your number of followers) 

[6:38]

• "You absolutely do not need to be everywhere."

In fact, you shouldn't try to be everywhere when it comes to social media. If you attempt to show up on every social media platform at once - you won't be serving your followers well. Focus on one or two platforms that you feel called to and where you feel your strengths are - and serve in those areas with excellence.

[14:30]

• "Ultimately, it's your job to get them ready for the sale."

As entrepreneurs utilizing social media - it's our job to set up the sale, in the hopes that we will turn followers into paying clients. When you're launching a product, there has to be some "seeding" beforehand. You have to make sure your audience knows about the problem that will be solved through your product, and that you're the expert to help solve the problem - listen to the episode to hear Brock's tips on how to do this expertly! 

[36:45]

We have to lift the veil on our social media platforms, and start showing up as our authentic selves - with our followers in mind. 

The goal is not to have a million followers or viral videos.

The goal is to serve our followers with excellence!

The goal is to build relationships with our followers - making them feel seen, heard and known.

AND ultimately, the goal is to convert followers to clients - where we can continue showing up and deeply serving them.

I can't thank my friend, Brock Johnson, enough for sharing his insight and wisdom on utilizing social media as an entrepreneur - these strategies are INVALUABLE!

Today I want to give a shoutout to one of my Epic Success Podcast listeners who left a 5-star review titled "This podcast is my daily motivation":

"Shannon, I love every episode! Having all the feels after listening to the episode with Lori Harder!"

I absolutely love sharing the brain-based process of creating success in your life & business with you each week on the Epic Success podcast! Reviews are how I know you're finding value and help me share Epic Success with more people!

If you have something you want to say about the Epic Success podcast, I'd love it if you'd post a 5-star review on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

I don't know about you, but as an entrepreneur, I used to struggle with my identity a little bit.

I thought, if I'm an entrepreneur, that's my lane and I can't stray outside the proverbial lines. 

It didn't matter that my faith was a huge part of my life - I couldn't mix my faith and my business, it just won't work.

Have you ever been there?

Let me help set you free from the lie that I believed: 

Your faith and your business can coexist - and in fact, your faith can lead you to abundant freedom and success in your business, not only for yourself, but for your clients. 

AND, if you aren't spiritual - that's okay!

We're opening up this conversation because I think it's important to understand that we are all integrated, and our beliefs - whatever they may be - have a profound impact on us and our business.

Whatever your beliefs are - hiding and limiting parts of yourself, for the fear of what other people will think, will not only keep you stuck - it will also push you to move backwards in your business.

This week on the Epic Success Podcast, I talk with my friend and Master Marketing Mentor, Brian Dixon, about his faith-filled journey to entrepreneurship, and how his faith has shaped his business and money mindset along the way. There are so many powerful truths in this episode, and I can't wait for you to dive in. Ready to take notes? Let's go!

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "One of the biggest tools that we have to defeat the power of satan and to expand the kingdom of God is our stewardship of financial resources."

I think a lot of us have believed the lie that money is the root of all evil - and that's not true. It's important to remember that wealth misplaced is not beneficial, but wealth itself is a good thing! God wants us to pursue our desires to make money - and as entrepreneurs, we have a unique financial opportunity to support ministries and nonprofits in their mission to further the kingdom of God. God delights in us and our desires, and we don't have to be afraid to make money. [15:05]

• "It's all about freedom."

Bottom line - it's all about freedom. God calls us to freedom through Jesus - from sin, bondage, anxiety, and lies that keep us stuck. So many entrepreneurs have fixed mindsets about money that keep them stuck, unable to move forward in their business. I know because I've been there!

Money fuels freedom - as entrepreneurs, we have an amazing opportunity to leverage our business to help set others free, once we ourselves are free of those mindsets that so easily keep us stuck. [26:40]

• "Start with your people."

If you're feeling stuck, lean into your people. When communicating with your clients in an attempt to build that relationship - get more personal, not less personal. You can stay in marketing mode, AND do it in a personal way that lets them know that they're more than just a client to you. Think smaller and kinder interactions, as opposed to bigger and louder. [35:02]

I want you to remember this: 

God is for you. 

God is for your business.

God is for your success.

You can trust in that. 

Don't hide your light because of the fear of what others will think!

Expressing your faith won't hurt your business.

Showing up as your true self won't hurt your business.

Your clients need to see and experience the real YOU, because you are amazing!

I'm so thankful to Brian for sharing his story and his wisdom with us in this episode, and I hope you're as inspired as I am to keep pushing past those mindsets that can so easily keep us stuck and lean into freedom.

Alright coaches, I'm talking right to you today!

I know you want to be the coach that actually creates transformation for your clients - and I want to help you get there.

Here's the deal: There are so many well-meaning coaches out there, who are coaching with strategies that only lead to temporary shifts in thinking or behavior. 

We don't want to just make our clients feel good in the moment - we want to set them up for massive success and growth in the long run, right?!

The key is knowing the difference between source-based coaching and symptom-based coaching. 

Symptom-based coaching will address specific things that a client may be feeling in the moment, but it doesn't address long-term solutions.

Source-based coaching is a brain-based methodology, not based on will power but on neuroscience, to rewire the brain towards success. 

As coaches, we really have to get to the source, not just the symptom.

This week on the Epic Success Podcast, I talk about symptom-based coaching versus source-based coaching and the importance of this distinction for coaches and their clients. As coaches who desire to deeply serve their clients, it's crucial to learn how to address things at the source, in order to produce real and lasting transformation for our clients. Sound good? Let's dive in!

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "You, your client, everyone has automations running in their brain."

Every single person has neural automations. What we find in adulthood, is that the automations that were created when we were younger to keep us safe and familiar, end up keeping us stuck from stepping into anything that feels unfamiliar or unsafe in our brain as an adult. Listen in to learn more about how our brain automations, which were formed through the environments in which we grew up, can affect how we view money, success, failure, etc. [3:09]

• "We really gotta get to get to the source, and the source is the brain."

The brain is incredible, and we have the power to rewire it - pretty amazing, right? The goal of source-based coaching is to neutralize and erase those automations that no longer serve you and cultivate those that do. This is where true-transformation happens for your clients - the "big shift" transformations that have a ripple-effect in every aspect of their lives. That's what we should be aiming for as coaches. [6:07]

We're not in the business of temporary behavior modification - we're here to bring transformation and breakthrough for our clients!

When we're utilizing source-based coaching, we can focus on serving our clients deeply, because we know this coaching strategy is a game changer!

And I want every coach to be coaching with that level of confidence. 

Stay-tuned for next week's episode, because I'll be diving into source-based coaching on a step-by-step level, to give you a better look at how simple it is and how to implement it with your clients.

"Thank you Shannon, for beginning Lori Harder on to share about A Tribe Called Bliss! Love you ladies and the helpful and inspiring message you put out there for those of us who love supporting other women and fostering amazingly healthy relationships!!! Ty ty ty!!! I'm in your tribe….both of your tribes!!!"

It's 8:00pm on a Wednesday night…

Are you just now closing your laptop for the night, mulling over all of the tasks on your to-do list that didn't get done?

Are you just now eating a quick dinner that you throw in the microwave because you don't have the time or energy to make something, and everyone else in your house has already gone to bed?

Are you noticing that it's been a while since you've sat down with your spouse, your kids, or a friend for a prolonged period of time - without thinking about all of the work you need to get done?

Ohhhhhhh I've been there and I know exactly how you feel. My dear friend, Michael Hyatt and I talk about just that on today's podcast. 

You've been sold the hustle fallacy that says the only way to achieve your goals and reach success in your business is through hustling and getting it done - no matter the cost. 

I want to help you break free of the "cult of overworking."

It's not benefiting you - and in fact, it very well could be hurting you. 

Overworking blocks us from the very things we're trying to achieve. 

The illusion of hustle culture among entrepreneurs and CEOs is literally running businesses into the ground. 

I know this because I've been there - I'm a recovering work-a-holic.

This week on the Epic Success podcast, I talk with my friend Michael Hyatt, Author and Leadership Development Expert, about his newest book that he co-wrote with his daughter, Megan Hyatt Miller, titled Win at Work and Succeed at Life.

We talked about the detrimental impact that overworking can have on our lives and business - and how we can overcome and find freedom from the culture of overworking and hustling. He's spent a significant amount of time studying "the impossible choice" of winning at work and succeeding at life. It's been said that you can't have both - but Michael has unlocked the power of the two working together harmoniously, and it's a GAME CHANGER. 

You guys - this episode has so much goodness in it that I want to go back and listen to it over and over again. These truths shared by Michael are not just beneficial, they are life-changing! Have a pen and paper? Grab one and let's dive in!!

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• "Work is enormously seductive."

Work-a-holism is not a metaphor - it's a real thing, and it generally starts rather innocently with the fact that work is fun as an entrepreneur when you're doing what you love. Work is very much a hobby for many who are working right within their niche. Not only that, but when we see results for our efforts at work - we become even more seduced by those results-based outcomes, which is not always something we experience or see the direct impact of at home. We love the satisfaction and happiness that comes from progress towards our goals. [9:51]

• "Work is only one way to orient your life."

There are many domains of your life - work is not the end all, be all. Life is a long-distance race and if you want to go the distance and have comprehensive success, you have to understand that life is multi-dimensional. Work is important, but it's only one way to orient your life and success at work should not be at the expense of the other dimensions of your life. Work-life balance is crucial. It's so important to remember that balance does not mean you give equal weight and time to each dimension of your life - it means you give the appropriate amount of weight and time. Balance requires constant adjustment, and it will look different in different seasons. [15:16]

• "The power of non-achievement."

Do you base the value of your life on your achievements? This is one of the trademark work-a-holic mindsets - but there are so many value-adding aspects of life that can't be measured, and that occur outside of workplace success. I think some of the best things in life can't be measured. In these places of non-achievement, sometimes, is where we have our greatest ideas. What is it, outside of work, that excites you? Whatever it is, set aside intentional time outside of work to do that thing, and watch how it impacts your work life. [31:08]

• "Sleep is the foundation of productivity."

There is no strategy found in figuring out how to operate on less sleep, so that you can invest more time in work. In fact, sleep deprivation can be extremely detrimental to your overall health, and negatively impacts your workplace performance. Getting a good night's sleep is not the end of your day - it's actually the beginning of your day, and it's the foundation that determines whether or not you'll win the day. [42:08]

You're a human-being, not a human-doing.

You weren't created to do it all.

But…you also don't have to choose to either be successful at work or have a healthy personal life. 

To succeed at home and in your relationships, you don't have to compromise your ambition - and to be successful at work, you don't have to sacrifice the health of your relationships and home life. 

You can win at work AND succeed at life - without being plagued by overwork. 

I hope you're as fired up as I am by this episode, and the amazing truths that Michael shared - and I truly can't wait to hear about the transformation and freedom from overwork that's to come in your life and business!

My friend Michael Hyatt, Author and Leadership Development Expert, went on a quest to debunk the myth that says you can't win at work AND succeed at life.

Michael, and his daughter, Megan Hyatt Miller, have written an incredible book that teaches you exactly how this can become reality in your life.

It's called Win at Work and Succeed at Life.

This week, I want to revisit one of my favorite podcast episodes - because I think it's so important, and relevant!

Have you ever been stretched too thin and overwhelmed? 

Hey, me too! 

When I first started as an entrepreneur, I felt like there was never enough of me to go around.

I wanted to do it all - run my business, grow my non-profit, care for my household, and be a mother - but I felt like I'd have to give something up.

Have you ever been there?

What I didn't know was that my brain was working against me, and that there were resources out there to shift my mindset and have my brain start working for me.

I talk about the three key components that science teaches us about success in the brain. 

Knowing how your brain works is key to understanding how you're wired, and if you don't, you are at risk of working against your brain - instead of having your brain work for you and for your advantage. 

I can't wait to dive into the 3 key components that will help you become the creator of your thoughts, so you can create the life you've always dreamed of having. Ready? Let's dive in!

The biggest take-aways from today's episode are:

• Your brain isn't naturally wired to bring you success.

Our brain's job is not to bring us big success or uplevel our business. Your brain's job is to keep us alive in a safe and familiar state. So when you want something really big or really different, your brain will see that as a threat and keep you from achieving your dreams. [3:59] 

• 90% of what you do is automated in your brain.

Your brain will automate the thoughts you tell yourself over time. The majority of these automated subconscious thoughts and beliefs are automated as a young child. And 90% of the actions you take are being operated out of that automation. That's why it feels like your brain is working against you. Good news is… You can rewire your brain and automate the thoughts you want… to the thoughts that serve you. [8:50]

• You have to slow down so you can speed up.

I see a lot of entrepreneurs trying to hustle to make things happen. The go, go, go and struggle to accomplish anything. It's like having your foot on the gas pedal and brake pedal at the same time - you get nowhere and just go in circles. You have to slow down to speed up. Slow down, become aware of your thoughts, and rewire the old automated thoughts.  [18:33]

You can be the creator of your thoughts and create the life you've always dreamed of having and you can start right here, right now!

Now more than ever, coaching is a vital business that's growing faster than ever before, and your voice and expertise is needed in the market.
