Are you ready to answer a very important question? One that could alter the path of your life going forward? Well yes, you are, sorry if you’re not ready, but this is important. Ok. Deep breath. But first,
If this is your first listen with me, allow me to introduce myself and welcome to the Soulfully Confident Podcast! I’m your host, Emily Elizabeth, creator of the Soulfully Abundant Group Coaching program and certified Life Coach. This podcast is for the person who feels insecure, lost, and wants more from life but feels stuck. It is for their life. In this podcast, we will cover topics including self-love, managing your emotions, reconnecting in your relationships, and even manifestation. Remember, you are loved, you are worthy, and you are so capable of anything you want to achieve. Let’s jump in!
Failure May Call But You Can Leave it on Read
How do you define yourself? Specifically, how do you define yourself when you fail (or feel like you’ve failed)? I know that it can feel disappointing when we don’t get what we want or (think) we need. But what if, instead of getting down on yourself, or letting it keep you from getting up and trying again, you instead admired the parts of your attempt that worked?
OR what if you appreciated the fact that you were brave enough to try at all, and tried to learn something from it? This concept is what I like to call “failing forward” and though it may seem like a small shift, this reframe is seriously powerful.
In this FREE 3 day training, I will share with you exactly how I went FROM: insecure, 'fake it until I make it' mentality, and very lost in my relationship TO: crushing my goals, feeling in control of my emotions, totally empowered to go after what I want, and to being in a truly secure and satisfying relationship.
Don’t Let the Mean Thoughts Get You Down
Look, if it makes you feel any better, I’m a life coach, right? I’m supposed to have all the answers- but even I get down on myself from time to time. My relationship with my husband will be going through a challenging season (it happens) but my inner bitch loves to peek her head out when I’m already vulnerable with her two sidekicks, fear and doubt. They make me question if I should even be allowed to be a coach since my life isn’t picture-perfect/ gram-worthy at all times.
But, I cut that shit OUT because we don’t play with thoughts like that anymore. My relationship isn’t perfect because there is no such thing as perfection, and when we clash it actually means we’re helping each other to grow; growth can be really hard but at least we both care enough to push one another.
Freezeframe to Reframe; The Bottomline
In taking a moment to step back and observe what’s happening, you’re able to really analyze the emotions in the room and the reasons for them, without being mean to yourself. It also helps to stop the spiral of negative self-talk and reinforces your relationship with, well, yourself.
Stepping into loving awareness is critical in helping you to overcome paralyzing self-doubt, and also keeps you from sliding into a victim mentality which can be a common coping mechanism. If you can feel your feels while you still seek perspective and keep a clear head, you’ll ensure you’re a kinder you inside and out, and you’ll be helping to make sure you’re failing smart- failing forward. Because you’re able to absorb what needs to be learned to grow and make necessary changes. Give yourself some loving credit, and tell that inner brat of self-doubt to go to hell.

About your host
My name is Emily Elizabeth, I am a life and confidence coach, and I am ready to help you take back your confidence and feel in control of your life.
I love helping women get out of the victim mentality, find their self-worth, and reconnect with themselves so they can not only improve themselves but all their relationships. When I am not creating content for my clients and programs, you can find me on a spontaneous trip with my husband, working out, curled up with my journal, or spending time enjoying the outdoors.
What I want to do for you all today is a little guided meditation, visualizations, and affirmations that I say a lot to myself and guide my clients through as well.
