    When Fear Blocks Your Passion Path - Live Coaching Session

    Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes When Fear Blocks Your Passion Path - Live Coaching Session July 10, 2025 | Episode 5134 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Ever feel like you're walking through tall grass with a machete, trying to find your way? You're not alone. In this special live coaching session, I hop on a call with my longtime client Chip to tackle the real stuff that keeps us stuck. We're talking about the fear that creeps in when you're 60 (or heading there), the scary choice of going all-in on what you love, and why cutting through the weeds might be exactly what you need. This isn't your typical podcast format - it's raw, real coaching in action. Get ready to eavesdrop on a conversation that'll make you want to face your own passion head-on. Featured Story Sometimes the best content happens when you least expect it. During a Face Your Passion coaching call, my client Chip was dropping truth bombs about transformation and identity. I literally said, "Hold on, let me push record - you're the podcast today." Three attempts later (technology, am I right?), we captured this authentic conversation about what it really takes to transform sales teams and your life. Chip's honesty about feeling scared and confused while "cutting weeds to see what's in front of him" will hit you right in the gut. His breakthrough moment about going all-in on his identity is pure gold. Important Points Fear of pursuing your passion often comes from comparing future goals to past methods that didn't work. "Going all-in on your identity" means eliminating everything that's not serving your ultimate transformation goal. People don't want change or improvement - they want complete transformation and the promise of what's on the other side. Memorable Quotes "Activity precedes clarity, but if you're going to do activity, you also have to say, well, listen, at least I'm searching for something." "Nobody wants change. They all want transformation. Nobody wants an improvement. They all want new." "It's not about wanting to find it. It's about having the courage to do it." Scott's Three-Step Approach Define what "impact" actually means to you instead of throwing around vague terms that sound good but mean nothing. Eliminate the busy work and courses that aren't directly serving your transformation goal - be ruthless about what stays and what goes. Paint a clear picture of the complete transformation you're promising, not just the process you're offering. Connect With Me Search for The Daily Boost on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

  • Why Your Actions Are the Real Clarity Test

    Why Your Actions Are the Real Clarity Test
    Jul 9 2025
    Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes Why Your Actions Are the Real Clarity Test July 9, 2025 | Episode 5133 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Tired of overthinking your next move? Scott reveals why your actions, not your thoughts, are the true test of clarity. Through a real coaching conversation with longtime client Paula, you'll discover how to break free from the "yes trap" and create space for what actually matters to you. Whether you're stuck in business decisions or personal crossroads, this episode cuts through the confusion with practical steps that work. Stop chat-GPT'ing your life and start taking action that reveals what you really want. Featured Story Paula, a retired kayaking instructor and 20-year coaching client, faced a common dilemma: loving what she does but wanting to transition from teaching to mentoring. The organization kept asking her to teach, and she couldn't say no, even though she craved more personal time on the water. Scott walked her through a four-step process to redefine her role, identify her ideal students, and finally set boundaries that honor both her wisdom and her desires. Important Points Actions reveal clarity better than endless planning or thinking – if you want to know what you truly want, start doing something and let the path unfold. Define exactly who you want to help and what they really need, not what you think they should learn – Paula's students wanted confidence, safety, and fun, not just kayaking techniques. Set new rules and communicate them clearly to everyone involved – people expect and respect when you honor your life stage and priorities. Memorable Quotes "Your actions reveal clarity. If you're sitting around thinking it through, that's not action." "As soon as you know who you're going to help, you get that instant motivation and clarity." "You're retired, you're older, they all know that. You're not surprising anybody to tell them you want to slow down and enjoy your life." Scott's Three-Step Approach Put your priorities on your calendar first, then remove what doesn't serve your goals – create space for what matters most before adding new commitments. Identify your ideal person to help and discover what they truly want, then promise to deliver exactly that – focus your energy on people who light you up. Decide your new role in current situations and communicate the new rules clearly – let everyone know what you will and won't do moving forward.

  • Supercharge Your Year With Retrospection and Prospection

    Supercharge Your Year With Retrospection and Prospection
    Jul 4 2025
    Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes Supercharge Your Year With Retrospection and Prospection July 4, 2025 | Episode 5130 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description It's Independence Day and we're halfway through 2025! Time to get real about where you've been and where you're headed. I'm sharing two uniquely human abilities that my high-performing clients swear by every single day. Forget traditional goal-setting and reflection – this is about feeling your way through the first six months and creating magic in the next six. These aren't just fancy words; they're your secret weapons for staying on track and becoming the person you're meant to be. Featured Story Fresh off a coaching call, Scott shares a powerful conversation with a client who thought his year was "a kick in the knackers" – until Scott reminded him about his new big client, beautiful motorcycle, loving wife, and great kids. It's a perfect example of how we forget our wins and focus on what's wrong. This story illustrates why retrospection isn't just looking back; it's about feeling the truth of your journey and recognizing what you've actually created in your life. Important Points Retrospection and prospection are uniquely human abilities that your pets can't do – only you can look back with feeling and create forward with intention. Most people blow through these exercises superficially the first time, so expect to dig deeper on your third or fourth attempt before it clicks. Clarity is the number one thing in personal transformation, followed immediately by getting rid of the clutter that's holding you back. Memorable Quotes "You as a human have the very unique ability to go come up with an idea and go create it." "Do not get down on yourself if you haven't figured it out yet – I've seen very smart people take months to get it dialed in." "You can prospectively decide what you want to create today and then just go make it happen." Scott's Three-Step Approach Look back retrospectively at your first six months of 2025 and feel how it went – not just think about it, but actually feel whether it matched your expectations. Move into prospection by deciding what you'll create in the second half of the year from a life experience perspective, not just goals. Practice this daily in 60 seconds, or spend five minutes doing it for the whole year, and watch your life transform. Connect With Me Search for The Daily Boost on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

  • Finding Your Third Identity

    Finding Your Third Identity
    Jul 3 2025
    Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes Finding Your Third Identity July 3, 2025 | Episode 5129 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Scott shares a powerful coaching insight that stopped his group coaching call in its tracks. If you've ever felt disconnected from your work or questioned "who am I and what do I do," this episode will shift your perspective completely. Discover the concept of your "third identity" – the often-overlooked combination of who you are personally and professionally. Scott reveals why traditional work-life balance doesn't exist and how finding alignment in this third space can transform everything. Featured Story During a recent group coaching call, Scott introduced a game-changing concept that had everyone rethinking their approach to personal and professional development. He shared his observation that most people focus on either personal growth or professional advancement, missing the crucial third element that ties everything together. The breakthrough moment came when clients realized they don't need to separate who they are from what they do – they need to integrate both into a unified, authentic identity. Important Points You have three identities: personal, professional, and the combination identity that most people never acknowledge or develop. Traditional work-life balance is a myth because you're the same person whether at work or home – integration, not separation, is the key. The real transformation happens in that "third space" between your personal and professional selves, where authentic alignment creates lasting satisfaction. Memorable Quotes "I can't imagine knowing who I am personally and then having a job that doesn't match what I do and living life like that." "There is no work-life balance. It's the same. How do I know that? Because you're the same person, whether you're at work or you're at home." "If you're doing something you like to do, and if you're being the person you want to be, the combination is what you want in your life." Scott's Three-Step Approach Define your personal identity clearly by identifying your core values and who you want to be in all areas of life. Examine your professional identity and determine if it aligns with or conflicts with your personal values and goals. Focus on developing your "third identity" – the integrated version of yourself that combines personal authenticity with professional purpose.

  • When Life Is Good, Why Mess It Up?

    When Life Is Good, Why Mess It Up?
    Jul 1 2025
    Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes When Life Is Good, Why Mess It Up? July 1, 2025 | Episode 5127Host: Scott Smith Scott dives into the two fundamental forces that drive everything in your life: people and money. You're either dealing with too many or not enough of both, and that's what's keeping you awake at night. But here's the kicker – when life is already good, why would you shake things up just to chase more money? This episode cuts through the noise with straight talk about growth, joy versus happiness, and why you might be hoarding personal development without actually transforming. Scott shares his perspective on living the good life and staying balanced while you grow. Scott recounts a powerful conversation with a friend about living the good life and the freedom that comes with it. The friend posed a game-changing question: "When life is good, why would you do something else only to make more money?" This simple question exposes how we often disrupt our own goodness chasing dollars we might not even need. The story illustrates the trap many fall into – working harder and harder, adding more junk on top of junk, becoming "hoarders of life" instead of focusing on transformation and what's already working. Everything in life comes down to two problems: people and money. Every sleepless night, every worry, every challenge connects to having too many or not enough of either. Growth and change are built into your DNA – you can't escape the drive to evolve, but you can stop yourself from acting on it by holding onto junk instead of transforming. Joy beats happiness every time because happiness is fleeting and temporary, while joy comes from within and lasts longer. "You become a hoarder of life. A lot of you guys are hoarders of personal growth." "There is nobody in the world that you should take a chance on that will disrupt that good life that you have." "Growth and change are what makes most people strive for something in their life – it's in your DNA to want to do that because anything other than growing and changing is dying." Accept that everything comes down to people and money, then get your head out of the sand and start dealing with both intentionally. Focus on transformation instead of accumulation by getting rid of the junk before adding new goals or responsibilities to your life. Ask yourself the key question before making any major change: "Will this enhance my good life or disrupt it?" Search for The Daily Boost on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
