    How to Make a Decision When Every Choice Has Consequences

    In this coaching episode, I share the deeply personal story of knowing my first marriage was no longer healthy for me, while fearing the consequences of becoming a single mum. I explore why waiting for certainty can keep us stuck, and how trying to avoid a difficult decision can sometimes cost us more in the long run. If you are facing a crossroads - in a relationship, career, friendship or family situation - this conversation will help you recognise what you can and cannot control, trust your instincts and take the next step, even when there is no easy answer. --- 🎧 Listening on Apple Podcasts?

    How to Build Confidence When You’re Afraid to Be Seen

    In this live coaching session, Lisa Quait speaks with Lara Giusti, Head Chef & Product at Veloforte. Lara is comfortable talking about the products she has helped create, teaching others and sharing the purpose behind the brand. But being visible as the person behind that success - on camera, in meetings or in a room full of peers - brings a very different kind of pressure. Together, Lisa and Lara explore why it can be so hard to recognise our own achievements, the fear of feeling like an impostor, and how we can start building confidence without having to become louder or someone we are not. They discuss the power of celebrating your wins, remembering the journey that brought you here, and creating a simple mantra for the moments when self-doubt takes over. If you know you are capable but struggle to believe you deserve to be seen, this conversation is for you. To explore 1-to-1 coaching with Lisa, click here. --- Need a safe space to talk?

    How to Let Go of What You’ve Been Carrying Alone, with Andrea McLean

    Broadcaster and author Andrea McLean knows what it is like to look as though you have everything, while privately carrying fear, financial pressure and shame. In this honest conversation, the former Loose Women host shares why telling her own story became the starting point for Between Us - an anonymous project where people can share the things they have never felt able to say out loud. We talk about why it can feel so hard to open up, the unexpected relief of putting your feelings into words, and how reading someone else’s story can remind you that you are not the only one. If there is something you have been carrying alone, this episode is a reminder that you do not have to have all the answers before you take the first small step towards letting it go. --- Find Andrea and her work: Follow Andrea on InstagramShare your story with Between UsFind Shameless on AmazonListen to the Shameless audiobook on Audible --- Need a safe space to talk?

    How to Stop One Comment Ruling Your Life

    A comment someone made years ago can stay with you far longer than they ever intended. In this episode, I share the words I heard growing up that made me question my voice, hold myself back and gradually become a quieter version of myself. I explore how those old labels can shape the way we show up in our relationships, careers and everyday lives - often without us even realising it. If you have ever wondered when you stopped trusting yourself, or whether you are living as the person you truly want to be, this is a chance to reflect on where those patterns began and start finding your way back to yourself. --- Discover transformational coaching with me --- Connect with me Instagram Facebook YouTube Hosted on Acast.

    Coaching Session: Why Childhood Labels Still Fuel Your Overthinking

    Were you given a label as a child that has stayed with you ever since? Perhaps you were told you were too loud, too much, or that you said the wrong thing - and now you find yourself replaying conversations, holding back in meetings or questioning your own instincts. In this coaching session, I share how old labels can quietly fuel overthinking and shape the way we show up in our relationships, careers and everyday lives. I’ll help you explore where those thoughts may have come from, how to challenge the negative narrative they create, and start reconnecting with the person you were before you learned to doubt yourself. --- Discover transformational coaching with me --- Connect with me Instagram Facebook YouTube Hosted on Acast.

    Coaching Session: Why You Stay Quiet and Don’t Speak Up in a Room Full of People

    If you have ever wanted to speak up but found yourself staying quiet, this coaching session is for you. I explore why speaking out can feel so risky - even when something does not sit right - and why this is often about more than confidence. From worrying about the fallout to fearing how others may see you, I look at the hidden reasons we tolerate behaviour that crosses our boundaries. I’ll also help you recognise when you are dismissing your own instincts and begin setting boundaries in a way that feels clear, calm and non-confrontational. --- Discover transformational coaching with me --- Connect with me Instagram Facebook YouTube Hosted on Acast.

    Here’s How to Stop Tolerating What No Longer Feels Right

    What are you currently putting up with that, deep down, you know isn’t right? In this short episode, I explore the things we learn to tolerate and normalise - even when they no longer feel right or fit who we’ve become. Through a series of powerful questions, I invite you to pause, reflect and recognise what may need to change. Whether it means setting a boundary, speaking up or walking away, change begins when you finally see what you’re no longer willing to accept. --- Discover mid-life coaching with Lisa --- Connect with Lisa Instagram: Follow Lisa Facebook: Follow Lisa YouTube: The only place to watch every episode of Real Women's Stories with Lisa Quait Hosted on Acast.
