Have you ever wondered why some coaches seem to effortlessly scale their impact and income while others stay stuck small and broke?   After 12 years in the coaching industry, I've seen this pattern play out countless times. The difference isn't talent. It's not certification. And it's definitely not about having the perfect marketing strategy. So, what's the real difference between pro coaches and amateur coaches?   Join me on this episode as I share the 5 real reasons why most coaches stay small and broke while a handful achieve extraordinary success, and exactly what pros focus on that amateurs overlook. You'll learn about my newest two-week program, Pro Coach Camp, and understand why mindset is the multiplier for all your tactics and strategies. Pro Coach Camp starts February 16th, 2026! This is my two-week program for any amateur coach who wants to turn pro.

Did you know that you are meant for joy?   Your purpose, one of your main reasons for existing, is to experience joy. In this episode, I show you why joy isn't created by any conditions outside of you and how this changes everything about how you approach your life. Most of us think we need certain circumstances to feel joy, but what if that's completely backwards?   Join me on this episode to discover the difference between fun and joy, learn how to create your emotional experience ahead of time through pre-coaching, and understand why the same conditions create completely different reactions in different people. If you're not experiencing as much joy as you'd like, this simple fix can happen literally today.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://jodymoore.com/542   Follow me on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/jodymoorecoaching/

Do people constantly tell you, "You must be so busy"? Maybe they mean it as a compliment, like you're so productive and accomplished. But here's what I've discovered: being busy is exhausting, and it's no way to live your life.   In this episode, I challenge the cultural badge of honor we've made out of being busy and offer you a different way to approach your life - one where you can do all the things you want without the exhaustion, stress, and overwhelm that typically comes with a full life.   Listen in this week to discover how to create a better-than-busy life, and practical strategies for shifting from a depleted, frantic energy to one that actually energizes you as you move through your day. I'll show you how to work with your brain instead of against it, why you should plan your own needs first (not last), and how changing your thoughts about everyday situations can completely transform your experience.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://jodymoore.com/541   Follow me on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/jodymoorecoaching/

The holiday season brings gatherings with people we love, but sometimes those gatherings include people who push our buttons. Maybe it's that relative who always has something critical to say, or the in-law whose worldview clashes with yours. You know you'll see them at Thanksgiving dinner or the family holiday party, and you're already bracing yourself for the discomfort.   This week, I'm talking about spending time with challenging family members during the holidays and how to maintain your peace when you're around people whose behavior you find difficult.   Join me on this episode as I show you why becoming aware of your own thinking patterns matters more than analyzing someone else's behavior, how to set boundaries without judgment when needed, and how the shame-blame trap keeps you stuck in family drama. Most importantly, you'll learn how to tell the truth with kindness - the key to genuine connection even with people who see the world differently than you do.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://jodymoore.com/540   Follow me on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/jodymoorecoaching/

Have you ever felt guilty about wanting more money? Maybe you've been taught that being spiritual means you shouldn't care about wealth beyond your basic needs. Or perhaps you find yourself constantly worried about finances, checking your bank account with dread, and feeling like there's never enough.   Well, what if your faith and your finances aren't meant to be separate? In fact, what if they're perfect partners? This week, I'm joined by certified life coach Danielle Thienel, who helps Christian women create peace and joy by combining proven coaching tools with faith. She's discovered how bringing God INTO your finances (not keeping Him out) creates true abundance, and she's here to share her wisdom with us.   Join us this week as Danielle shares practical tips for shifting from money stress to divine abundance. You'll learn 5 habits that are keeping you stuck in financial stress (and what to do instead), and how bringing God into your relationship with money changes everything from how you pay bills to how you think about wealth creation.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://jodymoore.com/539

Many of us learned early on that being good meant following the rules, keeping everyone happy, and never causing discomfort. So maybe you find yourself saying yes when really, you mean no. Perhaps you agree to host the family gathering, even when you're already overwhelmed, or give in to your teenager's demands because you can't stand their anger.   This week, I'm joined by Dr. Jennifer Finlayson-Fife to explore the crucial difference between compliance and true goodness. As an LDS relationship and sexuality coach with a PhD in counseling psychology, Jennifer brings unique insight into how religious communities can inadvertently teach us to abandon ourselves in the name of belonging, and she's here today to illuminate exactly how we mistake being good for being compliant.   Join us today as Jennifer shares practical wisdom about the difference between being kind and being compliant, why prioritizing other people's comfort over your own integrity is actually harmful, and how to recognize when your resentments are telling you something important. This episode is your roadmap for moving from people-pleasing to authentic living while still maintaining meaningful relationships.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://jodymoore.com/538

Resentment in marriage often feels like an inevitable part of long-term relationships. That slow burn of frustration when your spouse doesn't help with the dishes, or the familiar irritation when they make plans without checking with you first. These everyday moments can accumulate into something that feels permanent and insurmountable, creating distance between partners who once felt deeply connected.   This week, my sister Natalie Clay returns to the podcast as our resident couples coach to challenge this assumption. She brings a fresh perspective on resentment that turns conventional wisdom on its head - suggesting that resentment isn't about your partner's behavior at all.   Tune in as we unpack Natalie's definition of resentment and how it creates long-term disconnection. You'll discover a simple filter for making decisions that preserve connection rather than breed resentment, and learn why saying "yes" when you mean "no" might be the real culprit behind marital frustration. Most importantly, you'll understand how resentment actually offers valuable information about your own vulnerabilities and growth opportunities.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://jodymoore.com/537

Ever notice how your brain seems to get stuck in negative thought patterns? Maybe you've been feeling down lately, or perhaps you've noticed yourself complaining more than usual. Maybe you're just tired of feeling like everything is harder than it should be.   Here's the truth: negativity isn't just happening to you. It's being created by your brain. And while that might sound discouraging at first, it's actually incredibly empowering. Because if your brain is creating it, your brain can also uncreate it.   Join me this week as I break down why your brain goes negative and share four powerful strategies for pulling yourself out of that mental spiral.    Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://jodymoore.com/536

You'll discover how to rebrand yourself without abandoning who you are, why your energy should be treated like a luxury resource, and how creation itself can be its own reward.

Do you believe that if you're too accepting of yourself, you'll never improve? That being hard on yourself is the only way to grow?   If so, you're not alone. This is one of the most common misconceptions I see, and it's holding so many people back from their true potential. This internal battle is exhausting, and it's based on a fundamental misunderstanding about how human beings actually change and grow.   Tune in this week as I challenge this belief head-on and show you why self-acceptance is actually the foundation for extraordinary growth.    Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://jodymoore.com/534   Ready to learn how to stop shaming yourself and finally make change that sticks - without guilt, perfectionism, or pressure?
