    343-How to Know If You’re Called to Coach

    GET CLARITY ON YOUR CALLING- So many people quietly wonder if the pull they feel toward guiding others is real or just a passing idea. In this episode, we separate ego from assignment, desire from stewardship, and hype from maturity. Calling is not about platform or personality. It is about alignment between your wiring, your lived experience, and the burden you carry for transformation. If you have ever asked, “Is this for me?” this episode will help you discern whether coaching is curiosity, escape, or a genuine assignment on your life. Key Takeaways: • Calling is sustained alignment between your wiring, your experience, and the responsibility you feel for others’ growth. • Coaching is not about visibility or validation; it is about guiding transformation with maturity and integrity. • Fear and imposter thoughts often accompany calling, but they do not disqualify you. Action Guide: Take 15 minutes this week and honestly answer this question: If no one applauded me and no one paid me yet, would I still feel responsible to help people think differently and grow? Sit with your answer. Notice whether this desire fades when pressure is removed or whether it remains steady. That steadiness is often where calling becomes clear.   To explore working together, visit SterlingAndStoneMentoring.com.

    342-Own Your Time and Level Up as a Coach

    BECOMING A COACH WHO LEADS THEIR TIME- One of the fastest ways to lose authority as a coach is to live from the phrase “I don’t have time.” In this episode, we talk about why self leadership always comes before client leadership and how time management is less about systems and more about personal agency. You will learn why shifting from “I don’t have time” to “I don’t make time” moves you out of a victim mindset and into ownership, clarity, and power. This conversation is about learning to lead yourself well so you can teach what you actually live. Key Takeaways: • Coaches must practice what they ask clients to do, especially when it comes to time and priorities. • “I don’t have time” removes agency, while “I don’t make time” restores choice and responsibility. • Wherever you give your time, you are also giving your mindset, emotions, energy, and will, and that investment always creates results. Action Guide: Pay attention this week to when you say or think “I don’t have time.” Pause and restate it as “I am not making time for this right now.” Notice what that reveals about your values, priorities, and beliefs. Decide on one area where you will intentionally make time, not because it is easy, but because it aligns with the leader and coach you want to become.

    340-Invite God to Tell You Who You Are as a Coach

    IDENTITY BEFORE STRATEGY- As we open a new year inside the Christian Life Coach Collective, this episode begins somewhere different. Not with pressure, performance, or planning, but with listening. Through prayer and guided reflection, you are invited to ask God who He says you are as a coach, why He shaped you the way He did, and who you are meant to serve. This episode walks you through identity, purpose, belonging, and a Great Exchange where lies are released and Truth is received, setting a grounded foundation for your coaching and business in the year ahead. Key Takeaways: Identity precedes clarity, and listening comes before doing. Your coaching purpose is often simple, faithful, and rooted in how God formed you. Belonging is about resonance, not chasing markets or money. Action Guide: Set aside quiet time this week to revisit the core questions from the episode. Ask God who He says you are, why He shaped you for coaching, and who you are meant to serve. Write down what you hear without editing or rushing. If lies surface, intentionally exchange them for Truth and let that Truth guide your next small, faithful step. If you want to go deeper into identity, purpose, and belonging as a woman of faith, listen to my companion podcast: StoryMakers. To explore working together, visit SterlingAndStoneMentoring.com.

    338-A Simple Tool For Overwhelming Days

    GROUNDED IN THE MIDDLE OF CRAZY– Holidays often stir more emotion than peace. They carry a huge contrast of 'expectation meets reality'. People remember who’s missing, feel pressure to make things perfect, and reach the edge of their emotional capacity. In this episode, we’ll talk about what makes these “big emotion days” so intense and how to use a simple four-step tool to bring calm and clarity back into the moment—for you and the people you coach. Key Takeaways • Big emotion days are usually caused by accumulation, not crisis—too many small stressors and not enough rest. • The Pause, Name, Ground, Choose process helps restore awareness, safety, and emotional regulation. • Grounding the body before doing mindset work creates peace and clarity for both coach and client. Action Guide When emotion rises this week, pause and take one deep breath. Name what’s happening, ground your body in the present moment, and choose your next step. Then teach this same process to someone who needs a practical way to move through big emotion days with peace.
