Trusting The Process

In this episode, Karen Roberts delves into the importance of trusting the process and detaching from the outcome in the journey toward success. She begins by emphasizing the need for consistent effort, noting that showing up regularly is key to achieving results. Karen reflects on her early days in self-development, particularly an impactful Bob Proctor event she attended 23 years ago. There, she was introduced to essential self-development books like "Who Moved My Cheese," "Think and Grow Rich," and "Psycho-Cybernetics," which significantly influenced her life.

Karen shares a pivotal moment when she set three major goals: owning a fitness studio, buying a house, and acquiring a 4x4. Despite living in London and the seeming improbability of owning a fitness studio at that time, she moved to the Algarve, Portugal, four years later, fully committing to her goals despite the challenges, including being seven months pregnant and having a young child. This bold move was inspired by Bob Proctor's advice to "burn the boats," eliminating any escape routes and ensuring full commitment.

Through detaching from the outcome and focusing on daily actions, Karen achieved all three goals within five years. She attributes her success to trusting the process and emphasizes the importance of having a clear daily strategy. By establishing non-negotiable tasks and maintaining a consistent routine, she found that progress became inevitable. Karen contrasts this with her previous scattered approach, which led to procrastination and lack of focus.

Addressing the common fear of not getting enough clients, Karen advises listeners to trust the process and avoid a scarcity mindset, which can repel potential clients. She explains the benefits of leveraging a podcast to build a business, sharing her strategy of using podcast content across various formats and platforms to attract clients organically. By directly asking for the sale and incorporating specific calls to action, she created a seamless ecosystem that drives engagement and conversions.

Karen also discusses the importance of work-life balance and stress management, advocating for a structured work schedule that fits around personal life. She emphasizes setting boundaries, focusing on short, intense work periods followed by breaks, and maintaining a balance that prevents burnout. Reflecting on Bob Proctor's teachings, she encourages listeners to "let go and let God," highlighting the positive impact of faith in the unseen and detachment from stress and worry.

To provide practical advice for coaches, Karen suggests booking specific time slots for daily tasks, sticking to focused work sessions, and repurposing podcast content effectively across various platforms. She stresses the importance of having a complete strategy to ensure daily tasks are completed, which helps maintain focus and drive progress.

Karen's core message is clear: do the work, trust the process, and the results will come. By committing to daily actions, maintaining a positive mindset, and leveraging the power of podcasting, listeners can achieve their business goals and create a fulfilling work-life balance. She acknowledges that it might be challenging to detach from the outcome, especially when financial returns are not immediately evident, but insists that this approach ultimately leads to less stress and greater success.

Karen also touches on the misconception of attraction marketing, explaining that simply posting on social media is not enough. A proactive approach, including asking for the sale and engaging directly with the target audience, is necessary to drive business growth. By incorporating testimonials and creating daily calls to action, Karen has built an effective marketing strategy that attracts clients without feeling pushy or salesy.

The episode wraps up with Karen offering her services to those struggling to see a return on investment from their podcasts or those looking to launch one effectively. She encourages listeners to book a consultation to receive personalized strategies for growing their business through podcasting. By following Karen's advice and trusting the process, listeners can build a successful podcasting ecosystem that drives consistent results.
