In this short clip from a recent masterclass, I share the insight that flipped my whole relationship with impostor syndrome.

Hi. I’m Jamie Smart. Welcome to the podcast. This episode is called, “Wisdom Doesn’t Have Rules”, and it’s a recording from the Clarity Coaching Experience event we held last month. The theme for the event was focused on increasing your confidence as a coach, what I call “Impact Certainty”, and it was a great weekend. And one of the things we did was I had ‘fireside chat’ conversations with Clarity Coaches who are making a big difference in the world, and I picked their brains about their impact with their clients, and how this understanding has helped them increase that. So in this podcast, you’re going to be hearing one of those, a conversation I had with my dear friend and colleague, Sam Goldfinch. 

Sam is an educator, a coach, and an explorer in the field of spirituality, transpersonal psychology and addiction. His work takes him many places, but at the core of it is setting people free so they can see the beauty of who they really are. His podcast 'Present & Sober' is one of his deep passions, as are his coaching offerings, Rebel Spirituality and Sober Rebellion. And one of the things that really touched people in the audience when we had this conversation was when we got onto the topic of there being no rules for wisdom, so I’m excited to share it with you.
 
Just before we get to that, I wanted to mention that the doors are now open for the September 2023 intake of our flagship Clarity Certification Training programme. 
 
Clarity Certification has recently been accredited by the International Coaching Federation (the ICF) as a provider of Continuous Coach Education, so if you’re already an ICF-certified coach, you can use the programme to earn CCE units. Either way, you can take part in CCT with full confidence that the programme is fully accredited by the ICF as a Continuous Coaching Education provider.
