    How to Become the Life Coach You’re MEANT to Be

    In this episode of The Nancy Levin Show, I’m speaking directly to the part of you that’s dreaming of becoming a coach or levelling up—but holding back because you feel like an imposter. If you’ve ever wondered, “Who am I to do this?” or feared that you’re not ready, I want you to know: you’re not alone—and you're not wrong for caring. Imposter syndrome isn’t a sign you’re unqualified. It’s a sign you care deeply about doing this work with integrity. And the truth is, confidence doesn’t come first—it comes from taking aligned action inside the right container of support. That’s what coach training provides: not just tools, but a transformation in how you see yourself. What We Explore: Why imposter syndrome is actually a signal of your integrity The stories aspiring coaches tell themselves that hold them back Why waiting to feel ready will keep you stuck How training helps you trust yourself and your skills The ethical importance of building a solid foundation The shift from “aspiring coach” to “empowered coach”   If you’re ready to take the next step, I invite you to download my free workbook: Rewrite the Story Keeping You Stuck: Become the Life Coach You’re Meant to Be 👉 nancy levin.com/rewrite   Connect with me: Newsletter  nancylevin.com Instagram Facebook

    Turn Fear Into Fuel: How Midlife Women Confidently Change Their Lives

    Have you ever felt frozen on the edge of a big life decision—knowing it’s the right move but unable to leap? In this solo episode, I share how to work with fear instead of against it. Whether you're navigating a breakup, a career pivot, or the uncertainty of caregiving, I guide you through how to build a relationship with fear, use it as your compass, and honor your higher self in the process. We unpack the myth that courage means fearlessness and reframe fear as a dance partner to transformation. You’ll hear tangible mindset shifts and practical tools to build emotional capacity and move forward—one brave step at a time. If you're ready to stop waiting for the fear to disappear and start stepping into the life you're meant for, this episode is for you.   What we explore: Fear doesn’t go away—it’s something we walk with. Courage isn’t the absence of fear, it’s moving forward with fear present. Fear is often a misguided protector, trying to shield you from pain or rejection. Creating a dialogue with fear transforms it from a roadblock to a guide. Action builds clarity, momentum, and confidence—fear loses power when you act.   Reflection prompts: What’s one moment in your life when you felt fear and took action anyway? What is your fear trying to protect you from? What small, courageous step can you take today?   Connect with me: Newsletter  nancylevin.com Instagram Facebook   #mindset #growth #shadowwork #coaching #selflove #selfdevelopment #midlife #menopause #meditation #boundaries #lifecoach #transformation

    "I'm Fine": The Dark-side of Having the Perfect Life

    In this episode of The Nancy Levin Show, I’m speaking directly to the midlife woman who’s been silently struggling behind the phrase, “I’m fine.” If you’ve built a life that looks perfect on the outside but feels hollow on the inside, this conversation is for you. Together, we explore the emotional cost of living in the land of “fine,” from burnout and anxiety to the quiet ache of lost purpose. I share the story of a client whose journey mirrors what so many of us face—and offer a pathway toward freedom, aliveness, and a life aligned with your truth. Let this be your invitation to say yes to yourself and reclaim your joy.   What we explore: “I’m fine” is often a mask that hides deep emotional unrest External success does not guarantee internal fulfillment Perfectionism and people-pleasing can disconnect you from your true self Fear of change keeps many women stuck in lives they’ve outgrown The first step to transformation is admitting that fine is no longer enough Journaling prompts to reconnect with your desires One small step toward alignment creates momentum for change   Ready to stop settling for “fine” and start building a life that excites you? Stay tuned—I’ve got something special coming soon to support your next chapter. 💛 Connect with me: Newsletter  nancylevin.com Instagram Facebook

    Surviving Suicide to Changing Lives: How Self Care Can Save Your Life with Darryll Stinson

    In this moving episode of The Nancy Levin Show, I’m joined by my dear friend and extraordinary speaker, Darryll Stinson — a former Division I athlete, bestselling author, and two-time TEDx speaker whose transformational journey from trauma to truth is nothing short of breathtaking. Together, we explore the alchemy of vulnerability, the healing power of self-connection, and how Darryll has turned personal pain into powerful purpose. From surviving suicide attempts to becoming a voice for mental health and emotional authenticity, Darryll offers wisdom, compassion, and clarity for anyone ready to share their story, speak their truth, and embrace their wholeness. This conversation is a testament to the power of story, the necessity of self-care, and the liberation that comes when we stop hiding and start honoring all parts of ourselves. If you’ve ever wondered how to alchemize your lived and learned experience into a message that heals — this episode is for you.   What we explore: When we’re in right relationship with ourselves, we become more free from external judgment. Visibility isn’t about ego—it’s about purpose. We must become fully expressed in order to fully serve. Vulnerability lives on a spectrum. It’s not just about sharing trauma—it’s about being open to your truth, power, and presence. Transformation begins in the mirror. Darryll shares how mirror work helped him move from self-hate to self-love. You don’t need to wait for crisis to change. Your catalyst can be a conscious choice, not just a breakdown. The future belongs to fully-expressed, emotionally intelligent leaders. The next wave of speakers will embody deep self-awareness and divine availability. If this episode moved you, take a moment to pause and connect with your own story. What part of you is ready to be seen, heard, and healed?   Connect with Darryll: Website: www.darryllstinson.com Instagram: @stinsonspeaks LinkedIn: Darryll Stinson YouTube: @stinsonspeaks   Connect with me: Newsletter  nancylevin.com Instagram Facebook

    Midlife Reinvention: How to Tame Your Inner Critic with Author Britt Frank

    In this fun and frank conversation, I welcome back Britt Frank—licensed psychotherapist, speaker, and author of The Science of Stuck and her new book Align Your Mind: Tame Your Inner Critic, and Make Peace with Your Shadow Using the Power of Parts Work. We explore the empowering intersection of Internal Family Systems (IFS) and shadow work, reframing our inner critic as a misguided protector, not a predator. Britt offers brilliant insights on how parts work allows us to embrace the fullness of who we are—including our compulsive habits, younger selves, and the traits we’ve tried to exile. Together, we dive into the potency of perimenopause and midlife as a rebirth—an invitation to reclaim our true essence and align with our deepest values. This conversation is a rallying cry to honor your wholeness, connect with your parts, and live from unapologetic authenticity.   What we explore: Shadow work means reconnecting with everything that’s true about you—including your gifts. Internal Family Systems (IFS) is not separate from shadow work—it is shadow work in practice. The inner critic can become your internal coach when you understand it’s trying to protect you. Our compulsive behaviors are survival strategies, not character defects. Reparenting your younger parts creates emotional momentum and deep healing. Midlife is not a decline—it’s an initiation into your second becoming. Self-worth does not kill ambition. In fact, the more full of self-love you are, the more you can create.   Connect with Britt: Website Instagram Ready to align with your wholeness and reclaim your truth?

    The Secret To Midlife Confidence with Celebrity Beauty Expert Michele Phillips

    In this episode of The Nancy Levin Show, I reconnect with my dear friend Michelle Phillips — renowned celebrity makeup artist, self-confidence coach, bestselling author, and now podcast host of The Beauty Shift. Our bond began over a decade ago, rooted in our shared experiences of reclaiming our power after abusive relationships. Now, we dive deep into the evolution of beauty, self-worth, and the journey of learning to put ourselves first. Michelle shares her raw, vulnerable story of breaking free from the illusion of perfection and discovering the true essence of confidence. We talk about shedding outdated ideals, navigating midlife, and how real beauty radiates from authenticity and radical self-love — not products, procedures, or perfection. This conversation is a call to redefine what beauty means, at any age.   What we explore together: Michelle and I both shared how we used to project perfection while silently struggling, and how true healing began when we stopped hiding our pain. Real beauty begins when we reclaim who we are, instead of trying to match who we think we’re supposed to be. Self-love isn’t indulgence — it’s boundaries, saying no, and choosing ourselves again and again. Midlife isn’t a crisis; it’s a chance to rewrite the rules and finally live for ourselves. The beauty industry is slowly shifting toward age and body inclusivity, and Michelle is using her platform to amplify that movement. True self-care shows up in how we sleep, eat, move, and speak to ourselves — not just what we put on our skin.   Connect with Michelle: Website: michellephillips.com Instagram: @michellephillipsbeauty LinkedIn: Michelle Phillips Podcast: The Beauty Shift   Connect with me: Newsletter  nancylevin.com Instagram Facebook
