Let’s cut to the chase: Success in your coaching business isn’t about doing more—it’s about becoming more. You can have the best strategies and the perfect offer, but if you’re not growing into the person who can handle that success, you’ll keep running in circles. Today, we’re going deep into why building a thriving business is simple, but not easy—because it’s about who you’re being, not just what you’re doing. We’ll break down powerful insights from thought leaders like James Clear, Brene Brown, Dr. Joe Dispenza, Simon Sinek, and Eckhart Tolle, and share stories of coaches who rewired their mindset to unlock the success they were chasing. I’ll give you three action steps to help you align your inner world with your outer goals and step into the shoes of your future self, so you can start attracting success instead of just hoping for it.

Welcome to the Lifestyle Business Quest Podcast, where we don’t just give you business tips and tricks; we dive deep into the mindset and inner transformation needed to build a thriving $250,000 coaching business that aligns with the life you want. I’m thrilled to have you here because today’s episode is about the real work of success—the work that goes beyond the surface and tackles the heart of why your business is or isn’t growing. We’re going to explore why your personal growth is the single most important factor in your business growth and why becoming the person who can handle success is the ultimate key to unlocking everything you’re working towards. This isn’t just about tweaking your strategy—it’s about fundamentally transforming who you are at your core. We’ll look at groundbreaking insights from thought leaders like James Clear, who teaches about identity-based habits; Brene Brown on the power of vulnerability; Dr. Joe Dispenza on reprogramming your mind; Simon Sinek on leading with purpose; and Eckhart Tolle on the power of presence and self-awareness. We’ll also share real-life client stories that highlight why becoming is more powerful than doing. By the end of this episode, you’ll not only understand the deeper work required for success, but you’ll have actionable steps to start embodying the future self who’s already living the life you want.

My goal for today’s episode is to shift how you see success. I want you to understand that the external results you’re striving for—more clients, more income, more influence—are a reflection of your internal state. We’ll dig into why you can’t just out-strategize your mindset and why every business problem you’re facing is ultimately a personal growth opportunity. You’ll hear about the invisible forces shaping your results: your beliefs, your fears, your habits, and your identity. We’ll explore how these are formed, why they’re so hard to change, and how to start rewriting your inner narrative to align with your goals. This episode is about taking responsibility for who you’re being every day and using that awareness to consciously create the success you want. And we’ll finish with three deep, transformative action steps that will help you start living as your future self right now.

Let’s start with a concept that many people understand intellectually but struggle to live out: your business is a mirror, reflecting who you are, not just what you do. This is a core theme in James Clear’s work, particularly in his book ‘Atomic Habits,’ where he emphasizes that the secret to lasting change isn’t setting bigger goals but focusing on your identity. He explains, ‘Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become.’ In other words, your habits are not just about what you do; they are about reinforcing who you are. Success isn’t just about reaching goals—it’s about becoming the kind of person for whom those goals are natural outcomes.

For example, if you want to attract high-ticket clients, it’s not just about marketing tactics; it’s about embodying the confidence, clarity, and self-worth of someone who consistently attracts and serves high-ticket clients. If deep down you feel unworthy or doubt your value, that energy will permeate every client interaction, sales call, and marketing effort, often repelling the very success you’re working so hard to achieve. Clear’s work shows us that the path to success is less about external achievement and more about internal alignment—aligning your daily actions with the identity of your future self.

Brene Brown’s research on vulnerability and authenticity offers another profound insight into this. She teaches that vulnerability isn’t a weakness; it’s the birthplace of innovation, creativity, and connection. When you have the courage to be vulnerable, to show up fully as yourself, and to embrace your imperfections, you create a powerful connection with your audience and clients. Your willingness to be real and authentic builds trust, and trust is the foundation of any successful coaching business. Brown’s work reminds us that being who you are is not just enough—it’s exactly what the world needs from you.

Simon Sinek adds another layer with his philosophy of ‘Start with Why.’ Sinek argues that your purpose—your ‘why’—is not just a business strategy; it’s an expression of who you are. People don’t just buy what you do; they buy why you do it. This is especially true in coaching, where the authenticity of your mission is what attracts clients who resonate with your message. Your ‘why’ isn’t just a marketing tool; it’s a core part of your identity. It’s what gives your work meaning and sustains you through the inevitable ups and downs of business. When you’re deeply connected to your purpose, you’re not just selling coaching—you’re leading a movement.

To go deeper, let’s explore the concept of becoming the person who can handle success, not just achieve it. Dr. Joe Dispenza, a leading figure in neuroscience and personal transformation, teaches that in order to create a new personal reality, you must first create a new personality. He emphasizes that most of us operate on autopilot, driven by unconscious thoughts, habits, and emotional reactions that keep us stuck in a familiar state of being. Dispenza says, ‘You cannot create a new future by holding onto the emotions of the past.’ This means that to step into a new level of success, you must break free from the identity that’s tethered to your past experiences, traumas, and limiting beliefs.

Dispenza’s work shows that our brains and bodies are hardwired to repeat the same patterns unless we consciously choose to rewire them. This involves becoming deeply aware of your thoughts, emotions, and habitual actions and actively choosing new ones that align with your desired future. It’s about stepping out of the old self and into the unknown, where your future self resides. This isn’t easy because it requires you to let go of the familiar—even if the familiar is self-sabotage, fear, or playing small.

Peter’s story is a powerful example of this transformation. Peter was a talented coach but was constantly undermining his success with procrastination, self-doubt, and a fear of being judged. He had the skills and the knowledge, but his identity was anchored to past failures and insecurities. Peter’s breakthrough came when he realized that his old identity was incompatible with the future he wanted. Through daily visualization, meditation, and rewriting his inner script, Peter started to embody the confidence, decisiveness, and resilience of his future self. He didn’t just think about success—he felt it, lived it, and became it long before it showed up in his business. The moment Peter aligned his inner world with his outer goals, clients started showing up, revenue grew, and he began to enjoy his business in a way he never had before.

Ali’s journey was about redefining her worth beyond constant hustle and overwork. She had built her identity around being busy, equating busyness with value. But this mindset was burning her out and blocking her from stepping into the ease and flow of a successful, balanced business. Ali’s transformation involved letting go of the belief that she had to struggle to succeed and embracing a new identity as someone who could create impact without sacrificing herself. She began to set boundaries, prioritize self-care, and operate from a place of abundance rather than scarcity. As Ali aligned her actions with her new self-concept, she attracted higher-quality clients, doubled her income, and found joy in her work again.

The key lesson here is that your outer world will always reflect your inner state. If you want to change your results, you must change who you are being. Eckhart Tolle, in his book ‘The Power of Now,’ delves into the importance of presence and self-awareness. Tolle teaches that most people are trapped in their minds, replaying past regrets or anxiously anticipating the future, missing the only moment that truly exists—the now. He says, ‘Realize deeply that the present moment is all you have. Make the NOW the primary focus of your life.’ This isn’t just spiritual wisdom; it’s practical advice for anyone seeking success.

Your ability to be present, to engage fully with what you’re doing right now without judgment or fear, is a direct reflection of your internal state. If you’re constantly distracted, overwhelmed, or stressed, it’s a sign that your inner world is misaligned. Presence allows you to act from a place of clarity and intention, rather than reaction. It helps you make decisions from your future self’s perspective, aligning your actions with the success you desire.

A powerful practice to start aligning your inner world with your outer success is to set regular ‘identity check-ins.’ This involves pausing throughout your day to ask yourself, ‘Am I being the person who has what I want?’ This simple question can shift your mindset in real time. Are you reacting with fear, doubt, or impatience? Or are you responding with the confidence, calm, and decisiveness of your future self? These moments of reflection help you stay aligned, making sure your actions are consistent with your highest vision.

Let's dive into Three Practical Action Steps to Become the Person Who Can Handle Success.

Action Step 1: Daily ‘Future Self’ Embodiment Practice One of the most transformative tools at your disposal is the practice of embodying your future self every day. This goes beyond visualization; it’s about feeling the emotions of your future self as if it’s happening now. Spend ten minutes each morning visualizing your ideal day as the successful coach you aspire to be. See how you interact with clients, how you handle challenges, how you make decisions. But most importantly, feel the emotions—confidence, joy, gratitude, and abundance. By consistently embodying these feelings, you’re training your brain and body to operate from your future state, which reprograms your subconscious mind to align with your desired outcomes.

Action Step 2: Identify and Rewire Deep-Seated Beliefs. Your beliefs are the hidden scripts running your life. To become the person who can handle success, you need to dig deep into these scripts and rewrite them. Start by identifying your core beliefs about success, money, worthiness, and failure. Write down the limiting beliefs that are holding you back, such as ‘I’m not good enough,’ ‘Success is hard,’ or ‘I have to do it all myself.’ Challenge these beliefs by asking, ‘Is this absolutely true?’ Then, replace them with empowering statements that align with your future self, like ‘I am fully capable of creating success on my terms’ or ‘I attract abundance effortlessly because I am worthy.’ This process of belief reprogramming isn’t a one-time event—it’s a daily practice that requires repetition, consistency, and commitment.

Action Step 3: Decision-Making from Your Future Self’s Perspective. To accelerate your transformation, start making every decision as if you are already your future self. When faced with choices, big or small, ask: ‘What would the successful version of me do?’ Would they hesitate, compromise their values, or settle for less? Or would they act boldly, set boundaries, and make moves that align with their highest vision? By consistently acting ‘as if,’ you’re not just visualizing your success—you’re embodying it. This shifts your energy, builds your confidence, and propels you forward in ways that force your external reality to catch up with your internal transformation.
