Soul & Strategy

Sabine Lehnhardt

Welcome to the Soul & Strategy Podcast! I'm Sabine Lehnhardt, Spiritual Life & Soul Business Coach, Yoga Teacher and your host. A few years ago, I was exactly where you might be right now. I had a vision and inner calling to help other women step into their most confident and authentic selves. I knew I wanted to create meaningful impact through my work, but I had no idea how to turn that vision into a real business. And on top of that, fear, self-doubt and overthinking kept holding me back from putting myself out there. That's why this podcast exists! ✨ Soul & Strategy is where inner work meets real business strategy. Because here's what I've learned: you can have the best strategy in the world, but if fear and self-doubt are running the show, you'll struggle to take action. And on the other hand, mindset work alone isn't enough if you actually don't have a plan and path forward. That's why every episode brings together both sides of the journey: the mindset, nervous system and embodiment work that helps you feel safe being seen, and the practical strategies that help you build a soul-led business that actually works. This podcast is for spiritual women, coaches, counsellors, healers and practitioners who feel called to start or grow their own soul-led business, but find themselves stuck between the vision they can see so clearly and the action needed to bring it to life. Here you'll find open conversations, personal stories, intuitive meditations, power talks and practical guidance designed to support you through the early stages of your business journey. Whether you're still exploring your niche, working up the courage to share your voice online or preparing to sign your first client, you'll find support, inspiration and actionable steps here. Let's bring your vision to life together! With love, Sabine 🤍

    Ep. 15: Falling in love with sales: How I went from dreading sales to actually loving It

    Have you ever felt nervous before a sales call, worried about saying the wrong thing or wondered whether you need a better sales script to finally sign your next client? I’ve been there. I used to put so much pressure on myself to get every sales conversation right that I would literally sweat through my calls. I studied objection-handling techniques, searched for the perfect script and felt like I had one chance to get someone to say yes. But over time, my relationship with sales completely changed. What once felt stressful and uncomfortable became something I genuinely enjoy. And the biggest shift wasn’t finding a better script. In this episode, I’m sharing my own journey of falling in love with sales, the changes that helped me feel more relaxed and present in sales conversations, and why I now see selling as an essential part of making the impact I want to make through my business. In this episode, we explore: Why I used to feel so much pressure during sales calls and what changed when I stopped treating every conversation as my only chance to sign a client.The experience that changed how I think about hearing “not right now” from a potential client.Why searching for the perfect sales script was keeping me from the kind of conversations I actually wanted to have.What happened when I started focusing on genuine connection, curiosity and helping the person in front of me.The mindset shift that helped me go from dreading sales to actually looking forward to them. If you’re a coach, counsellor or practitioner who loves the work you do but feels uncomfortable when it comes to selling your offer, I hope this episode helps you see that you don’t have to become someone else to enjoy sales.

    14: Pleasure as Business Strategy: How to build a soul-led business on your own terms w/ Regan Figg

    What if enjoying your business wasn't something you had to earn once you became successful? When we start a business, it's often because we want more freedom, purpose and the opportunity to create something on our own terms. But somewhere along the way, it can become another place where we put pressure on ourselves. We follow strategies we think we should follow. Push ourselves to be more productive. Procrastinate on the things that feel uncomfortable. Or build a business that might look good from the outside… but doesn't actually feel good to run. So what would change if pleasure became part of your business strategy? In this episode, I'm joined by Regan Figg, the OG Pleasurepreneur - a published author, podcast host, and successful pleasure-led business coach helping women make way more money with way more pleasure. She shows coaches, creatives, and change-makers how to use pleasure as a resource and performance strategy to grow to multi 4- and 5-figure months, with ease, enjoyment, and zero burnout. In this episode, we went down some beautiful rabbit holes around pleasure, desire, failure, mindset and what it really means to build a business on your own terms. In this episode, we explore: ✨ Why pleasure might be the missing piece in the way you're building your business ✨ What procrastination and resistance could actually be telling you ✨ How to navigate the uncomfortable parts of business without making them mean something has gone wrong ✨ Why your desires might be pointing you towards opportunities your logical mind can't see yet ✨ How to create a business that you genuinely want more of instead of one you secretly want to escape from Connect with ReganInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/regan_figg/ The Pleasurepreneur Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/38FMbmD6WqD93heBGxIx7Y?si=1bf293eb9b8f4d8c Free Pleasurepreneur Business Audit: https://reganfigg.com/AUDIT/ Coupon Code: FREEAUDIT Free Pleasure Powered Sales Series: https://reganfigg.com/sales-series/ The Pleasurepreneur Mastermind: https://reganfigg.com/mastermind/ Ready to build your own soul-led business?If you know you're meant to turn your gifts into a business but you're still trying to figure out what that business could look like for you, I offer a free 30-minute Soul Business Start-Up Session.

    Ep. 13: How to hear your intuition when fear and self-doubt get loud

    Have you ever known that you wanted to do something… and then five minutes later started questioning the whole thing? Maybe you feel called to start your business, launch an offer, make a big change or take a path that doesn't necessarily make sense on paper. At first, there's this quiet inner knowing. And then your mind gets involved. But what if it doesn't work? What will people think? Is this really the right decision? Maybe I should wait… Suddenly, you don't know anymore: Is my intuition trying to tell me something or is this fear? This is something I've experienced many times in my own life, especially when making some of my biggest decisions. And learning to recognise and trust my intuition has completely changed the way I navigate my life and business. In this episode, we're diving into what it actually means to follow your intuition, especially when your logical mind is telling you something completely different. In this episode, we explore: ✨ Why it can be so difficult to hear and trust your intuition ✨ How to start recognising when intuition is speaking vs. when fear has taken over ✨ The role your mind should play when making intuitive decisions ✨ What might be disconnecting you from your inner knowing without you realising it ✨ How to build a stronger relationship with your intuition and start trusting yourself more Listen to the podcast on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/033EWkuVv5lA5DtrMirOim?si=d52d3f55b8094085  Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/soul-strategy/id6784563893  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLSzmIdQF1CyY  Ready to take the next step?If you're dreaming about starting your own coaching, healing, counselling or soul-led business, here are a few resources to support you: Soul Business Start-Up Session A free 30-min 1:1 session for those ready to take action on their soul-led business!

    Ep. 12: Feminine & Masculine Energy in Business: Finding the Balance Between Flow and Structure

    Do you ever feel like you're constantly pushing yourself to do more, achieve more and be further ahead in your business? Or maybe you're on the other side — full of ideas and inspiration, but struggling to stay consistent and actually follow through? In this episode, I'm sharing a personal lesson from my time in Germany and why I've been intentionally allowing myself to slow down, do less and let go of the plans I originally had for my business this month. Because building a soul-led business isn't about constantly pushing forward. And it's also not about only doing what feels good in the moment. We need both feminine and masculine energy to build a business that feels aligned AND actually moves forward. In this episode, we explore: ✨ What feminine and masculine energy can look like in your business ✨ The signs that you might be leaning too heavily into one energy ✨ Why feminine flow still needs masculine structure and direction ✨ How to know when it's time to slow down versus when it's time to take disciplined action ✨ How to create your own balance between intuition, creativity, rest, structure and consistency And I'll leave you with one of the questions I keep coming back to whenever I feel like I should be further ahead: Who is rushing you?

    Ep. 11: The 3 ways people can find your work as a new Coach (and where to focus)

    If you're trying to build your coaching, healing, counselling or soul-led business and wondering how to actually get more people to find you, this episode is for you! Because before someone can become a client, they first need to know that you exist. But especially when you're just starting out, relying on Instagram alone to build an audience can feel painfully slow. In this episode, I'm breaking down three different ways you can grow your audience and become more visible. We’ll also look at the time vs. money behind each strategy and which ones I recommend focusing on when you're still building your business and attracting your first clients. In this episode, we explore: ✨ The 3 main ways you can grow your audience and get more eyes on your offers ✨ Why relying on organic content alone can make audience growth feel slow ✨ How to tap into other people's audiences through collaborations, podcasts, workshops and partnerships ✨ When paid ads make sense and why running ads too early can amplify what's not working ✨ The two audience-building strategies I'd focus on first as a new coach, counsellor or practitioner Ready to take the next step?If you're dreaming about starting your own coaching, healing, counselling or soul-led business, here are a few resources to support you: Soul Business Start-Up Session A free 30-min 1:1 session for those ready to take action on their soul-led business!

    Ep. 10: The fear of being seen: Why visibility feels so uncomfortable and how to build confidence

    If you've ever found yourself recording the same Reel over and over again, avoiding talking about your offer, or waiting until you feel "more confident" before putting yourself out there, this episode is for you! Visibility is one of the biggest challenges I see new coaches, counsellors and practitioners face. But what if the fear isn't actually about posting on social media? In this episode, we're exploring what's really underneath the fear of being seen, why it feels so uncomfortable to share your work with the world, and how you can start building confidence one step at a time. In this episode, we explore:✨ What's really underneath the fear of being seen and why visibility feels so vulnerable ✨ The hidden cost of staying invisible and how it keeps you stuck in a cycle of self-doubt ✨ Why confidence is built through action, not by waiting until you feel ready ✨ Practical ways to make showing up online feel less overwhelming ✨ How small, consistent steps can help you become visible with more ease and self-trust Ready to take the next step?If you're dreaming about starting your own coaching, healing, counselling or soul-led business, here are a few resources to support you: Soul Business Start-Up Session A free 30-min 1:1 session for those ready to take action on their soul-led business!

    Ep. 9: Why workshops are one of the most powerful ways to attract clients

    If you're wondering how to attract your first coaching clients without relying on complicated funnels or posting on social media every day, this episode is for you. Workshops have been one of the biggest reasons I've been able to grow my business. They've helped me build trust, connect with my audience on a deeper level, and naturally invite women into my coaching. In this episode, I'm sharing why I believe live workshops are one of the most powerful client attraction strategies for new coaches, counsellors and practitioners, and how you can use them to create genuine connection, showcase your work and sign clients in a way that feels aligned. In this episode, we explore:✨ Why workshops create trust faster than most other lead magnets ✨ How to give people a genuine experience of what it's like to work with you ✨ The biggest mistake I see coaches make when running free workshops ✨ Why live workshops create deeper connection than pre-recorded content ✨ How to turn a workshop into a natural pathway towards your coaching offers Ready to take the next step?If you're dreaming about starting your own coaching, healing, counselling or soul-led business, here are a few resources to support you: Soul Business Start-Up Session A free 30-min 1:1 session for those ready to take action on their soul-led business!

    Ep. 8: Following your intuition when nothing makes sense yet

    What do you do when you know you're being called towards something, but taking the next step feels terrifying? In this episode, I'm sharing a more personal and intuitive reflection on following your calling, trusting your intuition and making space for the life and business you truly want to create. I talk about the inner conflict between choosing what's familiar and choosing what's aligned, why we often wait until life forces us to make a change, and how learning to trust yourself is one of the most important parts of building a soul-led business. If you've been sitting on the edge of a decision, feeling that pull toward something bigger but also feeling the fear, this episode is for you. ✨ In this episode, we explore:✨ Why your calling keeps finding its way back to you and what happens when you keep ignoring it ✨ The hidden cost of staying where you are, even when it feels safe ✨ How to create space for your vision without having to risk everything overnight ✨ Why trust comes before evidence when you're building something new ✨ How small, intentional steps can help you move towards a life and business that feels truly aligned Ready to take the next step?If you're dreaming about starting your own coaching, healing, counselling or soul-led business, here are a few resources to support you: Soul Business Start-Up Session A free 30-min 1:1 session for those ready to take action on their soul-led business!
