Episode Summary:


That powerful reflection sparked a breakthrough conversation between Ian Hawkins and a long-term coaching client. In this episode, Ian dives into what happens when we stop playing small, stop getting in our own way, and finally start backing ourselves. If you’ve ever felt like you’ve done well but, know deep down you're capable of so much more, this one’s for you. You’ll learn what changes when you commit, get support, and finally start living with intention.

well? But deep down, we know we haven't

strong connections and learn to trust

your body.

whole episode. Now it's time to take
