  • UPDATED WEEKLY

The podcast for women who are sick of the disingenuous online world, and want to be part of the move towards a new way of doing business. Hosted by business coach Gill Moakes, ReWild Your Business is a weekly homecoming for women who are no longer willing to contort themselves to achieve someone else's definition of success. When it comes to growing your business, rewilding isn’t about doing more (thank goodness - most of us do too much already!) It’s about about letting go of what doesn't belong, to allow what does to thrive. This podcast is where we name what’s not working, unlearn what was never a good fit, and make space for the truth underneath. Because your business was never meant to be built from strategy alone. It was meant to be built from you: your values, your voice, your rhythm, your soul. Each episode is a mix of grounded business wisdom, soulful reflection, and honest conversation about what it really takes to grow a business that feels like home. We’ll talk mindset, messaging, marketing, offers, thought leadership, and money, but always through the lens of wholeness. No more splitting yourself into parts. No more building what looks good but feels off. This is about bringing the whole of who you are to the table... because the whole of you belongs.

    #191 - 3 Decisions There's Still Time For You To Make To Be Sure 2026 Is Your Year

    As we close out 2025, this episode is about the three critical decisions that will position you to make next year truly extraordinary. Whether you're listening in those strange days between Christmas and New Year, or you're one of those brilliant people who switches off completely until January 5th, these decisions are for you to make... If you have a vision for your life and business that's bigger than feels comfortable to admit out loud, this episode is going to challenge you in allllll the right ways. The Three Decisions: Decision 1: To Uplevel Your IdentityThis isn't about affirmations or visualisation... it's about who you're actually being, not just what you're thinking. Your current business - everything it is and isn't - is an exact match for who you've been being up until now. If you're not getting the clients you want, it's because the woman you've been being isn't the woman who works with those clients. If you're not charging what you're worth, it's because the woman you've been being doesn't believe she's worth it. The uncomfortable truth? You can't grow your business beyond who you are being. So who do you need to become to hold the vision you have for 2026? Decision 2: Say No to MisalignmentEvery yes to something that doesn't align with your values or vision is a no to something that does. You can't make space for what's next if you're holding on to what no longer serves you. This isn't about being ruthless, it's about being intentional. It's about honouring yourself enough to protect your energy, your time, and your focus for what actually matters. What are you tolerating that's keeping you small? Decision 3: Invest in YourselfGrowth requires investment. You know the difference between genuinely not being able to invest responsibly and using money as a comfortable excuse to avoid growth. What investment do you need to make in 2026? A mentor? A mastermind? Training that would give you the skills to deliver at the level you want? Someone to help you do the deep identity work? Write down what you need. Then write down all your reasons for not doing it yet. Read them back and ask yourself: are these the thoughts of the woman I decided to become? Your Action Steps:For each decision, make one concrete move: Identity: Write a detailed description of the woman you're becoming. Choose one action that woman would take that terrifies the woman you've been being. Then take it. Saying No: Identify one thing you're currently doing that's misaligned and start thinking about your exit strategy. Investment: Research the investment you know you need to make. Book the discovery call. Request the proposal. Look at your finances and figure out how you'll invest in yourself in 2026. Don't wait for perfect clarity. Don't wait to feel ready. Just make the decision. Want to Work With Me in 2026?If you need someone to help you become the woman who can build the legacy business you're dreaming of, let's talk.

    #188 - Let The Money Be A Side Effect (Throwback Episode)

    We're revisiting an episode that was first published in February this year - Why? Because I've been soooo sick and didn't record this week, but also because this is a really important episode when it comes to your money mindset. If you’ve ever found yourself obsessing over where the next client is coming from or feeling that gut-wrenching panic when someone says no, this episode is for you. I am talking about the biggest mindset shift that makes signing clients easier: stop chasing money and start focusing on connection, trust, and service. When you do, the money becomes a natural side effect. This isn’t about sitting back and hoping for the best. It’s about showing up, doing the work, and playing the long game. When you stop leading with desperation and start building real relationships, everything, clients, sales, opportunities, flows so much more naturally. And let’s be honest, growing your business feels a lot better when you’re not constantly stress chasing. FREE MASTERCLASS Today we kick off Unearth Your Edge - my free 3-day masterclass series for coaches, where we’ll refine your niche and messaging so start attracting and enrolling the right people.

    #187 - Unearth Your Edge and Never Get Lost In The Sea Of Sound-The-Sames Again

    If you're a coach who's ready to change lives but you're struggling to stand out from all the other coaches saying the exact same things... this episode is for you.It's completely natural when you're starting out to look at what other coaches are doing. But here's what happens: you end up reading other coaches' Instagram bios, checking out their websites, and without even realising it, you start mimicking the language you're seeing everywhere. The result? Your messaging becomes beige. Safe. Generic. And when potential clients are scrolling through Instagram or reading emails, they can't tell the difference between you and any other coach out there.What Is Your Edge?Your edge is the combination of everything that makes you unmistakably you: - Your values - the hills you're willing to die on- Your lived and learned experience - all the lessons you learned the hard way- The things you believe that not everyone agrees with- The perspectives that make some people nod furiously and others hit unfollow (brilliant!)- Your authentic personality - not the professional coach version you think you should be- Your messaging - the things you can't stop talking about This Can't Be OutsourcedYou can't shortcut this work. You can't copy someone else's positioning. This isn't the glamorous bit of building a business - but it's the difference between a coaching business that actually grows and makes you money versus one that constantly struggles to attract the right people. It's the difference between feeling confident in who you are and what you offer versus feeling like an imposter every time you post on social media. Join Me For Unearth Your Edge I'm hosting a FREE three-day masterclass starting December 8th (8th, 9th, and 10th at 5pm UK time). This is the foundational work I do with clients in my MASTERY accelerator - and people have told me this masterclass alone has changed the trajectory of their business. Here's what we'll cover:Day 1: Who You Are - Getting crystal clear on your values, your story, and what you bring to the table that no one else doesDay 2: Who You Serve - Refining your niche based on genuine alignment between who you are and who you're meant to serveDay 3: How You Communicate - Creating messaging that actually converts by articulating what you believe in a way that resonates with the right people 90 minutes on Zoom each day. Time for questions. Workbooks for each day. And I promise you: this is going to move you forward in your business.

    #185 - Planning On Purpose: Part 1: Are you going to do what it takes to make next year YOUR year?

    Where the hell did this year go? If we're not careful, 2025 is going to race past us and we'll all be sleepwalking into 2026... In this first part of a two-part series, I'm sharing the exact planning process I take my private coaching, LEGACY clients through at the end of each year. This isn't about hustle culture goals or pushing harder. It's about creating a year that actually reflects what YOU want, not what Instagram tells you your year should look like, not even what I tell you it should look like... Because here's what I've learned from coaching really ambitious women: most of us don't fail because we lack strategy. We struggle because we're following strategies that weren't created by us, for us. This is planning that matters. Planning that works. Planning on purpose. What You'll Learn: Why Planning Actually Matters The Three Essential Planning Steps The Biggest Mistake Coaches Make Resources MentionedFree Workshop: Planning on Purpose: November 20th, 2025Hosted with the Institute of Coaching Studies(Replay available if you can't attend live) SIGN UP HERE: https://coachingstudies.org/events/coaching-business-masterclass-2026-planning/ Book Recommendation:"Free to Focus" by Michael Hyatt - exceptional resource for yearly planning and productivity The Institute of Coaching Studies:My absolute number one recommendation for coach training. Reflection Prompts:Before you start planning for next year, take time to reflect on 2025: What worked this year that you want to do more of?What didn't work that you're ready to let go of?What did you wish you'd made time for?What do you wish you'd never started? Email your reflections to info@gillmoakes.com - I'd love to hear what's coming up for you. COMING NEXT WEEK...Part 2 is coming next week, where we'll dive deep into the mindset piece: Who do you need to BE to bring your vision to life? What is your business asking from you in terms of how you show up?This two-part series, combined with the free workshop on November 20th, will give you everything you need to make 2026 truly YOUR year. About This SeriesThis is the exact planning process I've refined over years of working with ambitious women coaches. It works because it's not about doing more or pushing harder, it's about intentional, purpose-driven planning that creates a business supporting your life, not consuming it.

    #184 - The Permission You're Waiting For (Spoiler: It's Not Coming)

    That permission slip you're waiting for... the one that says you're ready to charge what you're worth, claim your niche, or call yourself an expert? I'm afraid it's not coming. Not from a certification body, not from a certain number of clients, and definitely not from your follower count. In this episode, I'm diving into why we crave external permission, the three permission traps keeping brilliant coaches stuck, and what self-permission actually looks like (spoiler: it's harder than waiting for validation, but it's the only way forward).If you've been telling yourself "I'll be ready in January" or "once I have X, then I'll do Y", this one's for you. What We Cover The Permission Paradox - Why we're trained to wait for external validation (and why it's keeping you small)- My own journey from blocking everyone on social media to hosting this podcast- The uncomfortable truth: staying small has to feel worse than the fear of being seen The Three Permission Traps Trap #1: The Qualification Trap - Why collecting certifications won't make you feel ready- The truth: clients buy transformations, not certificates- You're qualified the moment you can deliver results Trap #2: The Numbers Trap - "Once I have 10 clients, then I'll raise my prices" (and other lies we tell ourselves)- How you can build a six-figure practice with 500 engaged followers- Premium pricing attracts better clients - not the other way around Trap #3: The Timeline Trap - "I'll be ready in six months" (no, you won't)- Why perfect conditions will never exist- Clarity comes from action, not contemplation What Self-Permission Actually Looks LikeSelf-permission isn't a feeling, it's a decision. And it requires: Radical responsibility (no one else to blame if it doesn't work) Tolerance for discomfort (charging premium prices before you feel 'worth it') Redefining "ready" (willing to try ≠ perfect) The 5-Step Framework for Giving Yourself Permission Name what you're actually waiting for (get specific - it's probably imaginary) Identify the cost of waiting (what are you not building? Who are you not serving?) Make the decision as if permission has been granted Take the first uncomfortable action (not perfect action, next action) Build your evidence bank (track every win, collect every testimonial) The Bottom LineThe permission you're waiting for isn't coming from out there. It's been inside you the whole time. You just have to be brave enough to claim it.Stop waiting. Start building. Your InvitationWhat's one green light you've been waiting for that you could give yourself today? Not in January. Not when you have more clients. Not when you feel more confident. Today.What would you do if you just... decided? Work With MeIf this episode resonated and you're ready to stop waiting for permission, let's talk about MASTERY - my 18-week signature program for coaches who are done playing small. MASTERY isn't just strategy (though you'll get a complete roadmap for building a highly profitable coaching practice). It's also the mindset work of backing yourself before you have external proof. Of embracing your unique edge. Of owning your value. Of moving forward even when it's uncomfortable. Because here's what I know: you don't need more qualifications. You don't need more followers. You don't need more time.You need clarity. You need strategy. You need someone who sees you and believes in what's possible when you bring the whole of who you are to your business...
