284. The 3 Most Common Struggles I See As a Life Coach (And How to Overcome Them)

 May 08, 2025


 

Ever wonder what really happens inside a life coaching session? In this candid, wisdom-packed episode, Emme and Dr. Edie go behind the scenes to share the three most common struggles women bring to coaching—and how to begin healing and moving forward through each one.

From learning how to regulate your emotions, to quieting that inner critic, to reconnecting with your purpose (no matter your age or season), this conversation is both practical and soul-stirring. Whether you’re feeling stuck, lost, or just ready for more, this episode will remind you: you're not alone—and there are tools and truths that can truly change your life.

In this episode, we explore:

  • The emotional root of feeling “stuck” and what to do about it

  • How to recognize (and rewrite) the harsh inner voice we’ve unknowingly internalized

  • Why your purpose might be hiding in plain sight—and how to bring it to life

  • Why your thoughts matter more than you think—and how to shift them

  • The difference between “cheap dopamine” and deeply fulfilling motivation

We also share some of our favorite style finds, personal routines, and a few laughs about denim jackets and Walmart fashion. Because, of course we do.
