  • 143. Simple Steps To Overcome Burnout: An Inspiring Conversation With Christina L. Woods
    Apr 1 2025

    Question or comment? 🙋‍♀️ Send me a text message!

    Do you ever find yourself feeling a little, you know, frayed around the edges?

    If so, you’ll love what I have for you today, because I’m talking to the lovely Christina L. Woods, as we dig into the topic of burnout. 😵‍💫

    Christina is a hypnotherapist and coach who helps exhausted, overwhelmed, powerful women learn how to come back to center, reconnect with their inner self, and tune into their intuition.

    Something we could all use a little help with right now, am I right? 💁🏼‍♀️

    In this episode, Christina shares how to recognize the sneaky signs of burnout (especially for healers like us), and shares practical ways to reconnect with yourself, reclaim your energy, and find joy and fulfillment in the work you were called to do.

    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    • Why you will NEVER be able to manifest the life you want while you’re struggling with burnout. (Yet another reason to fix this, my friend.)
    • Some common signs of burnout that might surprise you (and the most important intangible sign you could miss).
    • A simple barometer you can use to tell when you’re moving out of balance, and how to get back to center.
    • A genius trick to help you pivot quickly when negative emotions start to creep in.

    Y’all – I know how hard you work, how much you give - but we need you to LAST. A business that runs you into the ground is anything but an Ideal Practice(c).

    So, give this one a listen. And take care of your sweet Self.

    ~Wendy

    P.S. “Okay Wendy - THAT was interesting….!

    If that’s what you find yourself saying as you listen, would you please share a little love with a 5 star review and a few words over on Apple Podcasts or Spotify?

  • 142. A 10 Step Process That Will Change The Way You Connect With Your Dream Clients
    Mar 25 2025

    Question or comment? 🙋‍♀️ Send me a text message!

    Hey there everyone!

    Have you ever wondered why some clients light you up 🤩, while others leave you drained 😒?

    That happens because we, as healers, often feel like we can help anybody.

    But that doesn’t mean we should help everybody.

    Here’s the thing … I guarantee you will be better at helping some clients rather than others. And once you see that - and lean into it - amazing things will happen.

    The key to a joyful, thriving, truly Ideal Practice(c), is working with clients who are ideal to you.

    So, in this week’s episode, we’re going to dive in and understand your ideal client on a much deeper level.

    I’m going to walk you through an intensive 10 step process that will change the way you connect with your dream clients.

    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    • The biggest mistake you can make when defining the problems you solve for your ideal clients.
    • Why it’s critical that you own your authority, your expertise, and how to do that.
    • One of the most important questions you can ask your clients (and why you’re going to love what comes after that!).

    And, as always, I come bearing gifts for you! 🥳

    Make sure you stick around until the end, where I’ll let you know how to get your hands on a terrific free resource that will walk you through all of this, step by step.

    Isn’t it time to give yourself permission to tune into the kind of client work that truly makes you happy? 🥰

    Of course it is. And this will help you get there.

    Give it a listen.

    ~Wendy

    P.S. “Okay Wendy - I get it. I do want to work with my favorite clients because those are the ones I know I can help the most!” If that’s true for you, you’ll be surprised at how much better you get those folks by working through this process. Not. Even. Kidding.

  • 141. Do You Really Need To Be On Social Media? The Truth Might Surprise You...
    Mar 18 2025

    Question or comment? 🙋‍♀️ Send me a text message!

    Hey there, folks!

    A LOT of my coaching clients really struggle around social media and marketing.

    They feel like they need to show up constantly… They worry about how to show up and what to post. And that doesn’t begin to cover the challenge of where they should be…

    Instagram? Facebook? LinkedIn? TikTok? … or ALL of the above?

    Oy. It’s enough to make your head spin.

    Lord knows, I get it. It's so easy to get caught up in what everyone says you need to do, but what if the conventional wisdom just isn't the right fit for you?

    Well, today, we're going to figure it out.

    We’re diving deep into how you can use my popular framework, the 7 Pillars of an Ideal Practice, to help you cut through the noise and determine if social media really is necessary for you.

    I used this recently to coach someone through this question for their own practice and it was incredibly helpful. Today, I want to share that with you.

    So in today’s episode you'll hear:

    • How to use the 7 Pillars to decide how and where you should show up online (… and maybe even, IF… 🤔).
    • Why just "being seen" isn't always the answer, and what to focus on instead.
    • Some alternative ways to connect with your audience if social media isn’t right for you.

    And, as always, I've got some free goodies (see the link below) for you to grab that are really going to help you hone in on the answer to this burning question …

    Do you really need social media in your private practice?

    Truth is - I don’t know.

    But, if you give this episode a listen, you will be able to answer that question yourself with real clarity.

    It's time to show up in all the right places … whatever that looks like for you.

    So let’s figure that out, shall we?

    Join me. :)
