The Profitable Coaches Podcast

In this episode you’re going to hear a group session I did in Amir Karkouti’s ‘What the F*#$ Are The Principles?’ group and it was not only a lot of fun (the session was called “Outsmart Jamie Smart”); it was also super-impactful for a lot of people, so I wanted to share it with you. Here’s what it was about: I asked people to think of the most difficult and challenging people to discuss your work with - especially clients – and then they came on the session LIVE and role-played those people and scenarios so I could demonstrate how I’d handle it.  Here are some of the examples: A psychotherapist who’s deeply embedded in a different way of working, and is defensive about the idea that transformation can be fast, simple and sustainable. A victim of child abuse who’s outraged at the idea that their suffering has anything to do with their thinking. A judge working in family court who’s got lots on their plate and needs things to be explained clearly and simply. We’ve also got the classic example of a coaching cl

This episode is one I’ve shared on my Get Clarity podcast this week, but it’s super-relevant to coaches, therapists and transformation professionals, and here’s why: it’s a coaching session I did with a coach who was struggling with self-doubt and lack of self-belief.    Emma Broome is an elite performance coach, with a background in elite performance herself as an aerial skier. But when she first reached out to me, she told me she was really struggling with impostor syndrome and self-doubt. And she was surprised when I said, “That's a bit of a specialty of mine, so we'll get that handled, probably during the first week of the programme.” I invited her to do a coaching demo with me during a Thriving Coaches Blueprint bootcamp, and the recording you’re about to hear is the result. By the way, 2 weeks ago she posted on Facebook saying, “I had my first enrolment conversation 10 days ago, did my first proposal last week and had it accepted yesterday! I now have my first half day intensive in 10 days time.” So thi

This episode is a coaching session I did with coach and therapist Pete Bryceland nearly 4 years ago during the beta test of the Thriving Coaches Blueprint programme. I did the session in a group setting and the reason this may be of particular interest to you is that in the 3 weeks following the session Pete signed up two coaching clients on packages of 10 thousand pounds each. So he made more money in that month than he’d made in the previous year.   By the way we are about to kick off the final Thriving Coaches Blueprint of 2018. The doors close this Frida, august 10th and for the first time in 3 years I’m going to be doing all the group coaching sessions on this intake personally.   That means that each person who come on this intake of the programme is going to get 1-1 coaching with me in a group context.

In this episode I’m going to be unpacking a coaching session I did with a very successful coach called Pam Featherstone (which you may have heard on my podcast a couple of weeks ago). If you would like to watch the full coaching demo click here: http://bit.ly/pamfeathertstone You can also learn more about the Certified Clarity Coach Training Programme, our 10-month deep-immersion into the principles behind clarity (doors now open! The programme starts September 2018 and won’t run again until 2020 at the earliest.)

This episode pf The Thriving Coaches podcast features a coaching session I did during the 2017 Clarity Coach Training programme with a very successful coach called Pam Featherstone. Pam took her coaching business from zero to 1 million in under 3 years and became Action Coaches No. 1 global coach of the year. In fact she was the first ever UK coach to achieve their global award (previously it had been won by coaches from the USA and Australia). Pam currently gives 80% of all her earnings to charity and has delivered 12000 coaching hours over the course of 5 years but she came on the Clarity Coach training programme to increase her impact with her clients even more and to experience her own personal transformations.      In this session you’re going to hear me working with Pam on caring for her own health and wellbeing. This is something I see with a lot of coaches, therapists and transformation professionals – they’re brilliant at support other people but sometimes need a little support in taking care of them

In this episode you're going to hear an excerpt from the most recent Clarity Coach Training programme where several students were in situations where they wanted to share the principles behind Clarity with an audience, but they didn't understand how it was practical (or even possible) to do so. The subjects they were due to be talking about were “gut health”, “business strategy” and “exam results”. The principles behind clarity are present in every human experience so, as you'll hear, it turns out to be quite a bit simpler than you might expect. By the way, the certified Clarity Coach Training programme is going to be formally opening for registration in the next couple of weeks. We've had people from all walks of life go through the programme including computer programmers, doctors, call centre workers, lawyers, parents, PR specialists, therapists, office workers, entrepreneurs, surgeons, people who are already coaches, consultants, trainers and even a professional footballer.  If you want to find out how

In this episode you are going to hear a coaching session I did with executive coach - Kim Kaase back in 2015 on a BETA test of my programme 'The Thriving Coaches Blueprint'. One of the things that is interesting about this episode is that after the session Kim went on to enrol clients on coaching packages and to put what she learned into practice with great effect!

In the first episode of the new Thriving Coaches Podcast you will hear an interview I did with Ankush Jain. Ankush is one of the people who's featured in my new book 'The Little Book of Results'. While the book is designed for anyone who wants to create more of the results that matter to them, it is specifically useful to coaches, therapists and other transformation professionals because it's based around the structure I have already used to show hundreds of coaches how to grow thriving practices and increase their impact.  If you want to hear more about the big launch competition we are doing for LBOR goto https://www.jamiesmart.com/getresults
