  • You talking to me?

    THIS podcast!! It’s as if we are having one-on-one conversations!! While Maria is talking, clearly she is relaying personal experiences and I am looking at the mirror, checking in with myself saying, “YUP”.

    So relatable - each episode, every topic is down to earth conversation for women.

    We all know it, and Maria just talks about it!!

    Love it! TO the inclusion of all women, this podcast is for us!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Lauren of Love on Why the Coaching Industry Needs a Full Reset | Consent, Truth, and Trauma-Informed Leadership
Q: How does trauma-informed leadership influence your coaching and content?
Trauma awareness is crucial for safe space; coaches must understand parts of clients and themselves, avoid retraumatization, and approach healing as a shared journey rather than a quick fix.
Lauren of Love on Why the Coaching Industry Needs a Full Reset | Consent, Truth, and Trauma-Informed Leadership
Q: What changes do you want to see in the coaching industry?
She emphasizes moving away from performative, algorithm-driven content and fixed-sales scripts toward heart-centered, spacious conversations, clear boundaries, and a trauma-informed approach to space-holding.
Lauren of Love on Why the Coaching Industry Needs a Full Reset | Consent, Truth, and Trauma-Informed Leadership
Q: Tell us about your background and how you came into the online coaching space.
Lauren describes starting with a personal blog in 2015, embracing vulnerability, and building a community that allowed her to align her work with authentic purpose rather than rigid scripts.
REAL Confidence with Simone Knego | From Self-Doubt to Unshakable Self-Trust
Q: Can you tell me the difference between pretending confidence versus real confidence?
Pretending confidence is a visible performance that hides insecurity; real confidence is a quiet inner certainty that you are enough and capable, which allows you to contribute and engage without needing to prove yourself or race to impress others.
REAL Confidence with Simone Knego | From Self-Doubt to Unshakable Self-Trust
Q: So why don't you tell us a little bit about that method?
Confidence is a skill you build, not something you're born with. The Real Method focuses on respect for yourself, embracing failures, asking what you want, and living without limits, plus a practical four-part framework centered on awareness, reframing stories, choosing better stories, and deleting unhelpful beliefs.
