I am doctor Madeline Ann lewis your host, and my mission is to help women accelerate the path to success. Well. Today is the first episode of twenty twenty four and the topic for today is life First Coaching and my guest is Jen Ryan. So when we talk about bringing people onto the show, especially in the beginning of the year, I am going to do with just a little bit of change.
3:05 This time, I'm going to bring Jin on and I'm gonna and how I always give you the standard bio on our guests, Well, this time I am going to let her tell us what she wants us to know about Jen Ryan. So welcome Jen Ryan to the Success for Women Radio and TV show. Tell us tell the viewers and the listener what you want them to know about Jen Ryan. Oh my gosh, where do I begin? Well, thank you, that's such an exciting opportunity. I'm very delighted to be here. There's lots I'd love to share about myself. I've got a kind of an interesting story in that I'm clearly not from around here. So I moved to the US with my husband in twenty twelve. I had a long career in human resources in Australia and got the opportunity to take on a job in the headquarters of the organization that I worked for at the time. Goodness, so my hair is annoying with today, and so I joined the company in the US and had ten years with MasterCard, actually in the corporate head office in New York. And after oh gosh, in just last year actually we moved here to Colorado, and we've changed up our lives completely and we now have a mountain kind of lifestyle as opposed to the urban lifestyle of New York. But of course all of my life is back in Australia and one
4:38 of the big challenges is managing family friendships, circles in Australia and family friendships, life and the corporate a career now here in the US, so I live constantly with the foot in both camps. And having just come back from excuse me, from Sydney this Christmas period, you know, it just reinforces how it is a challenge to live across two countries and yet it's such an honor as well. Absolutely, So that really forms part of who I am and a lot of what I bring to the work that I do too. So I could go on and on about who I am. I don't actually to do a lot of coaching, so talk to us about that. Why do you coach and what is your passion for coaching? Yeah, definitely.
5:30 Well, after a long it's nearly more than twenty years excuse me, of human resources jobs, corporate American, corporate Astralia, it really stood out for me that the one thing I love the most, excuse me, what's working in the coaching way with managers, with team members, with senior executives, et cetera. Realizing that the work they we're doing is really can really be enhanced by sitting down, spending time with them and understanding what the challenges are that are behind the work that's sitting in front of them. So, for example, a manager that's struggling to motivate his team so often we really sat down and talked about it. There was something else going on in the background of his or her life, and you'd be able to understand that and help them bring that to the fore. A deal with that was an important part of the work that I did. And then on the other end of the scale, there would be a team member wanting to once their career not having any idea how to begin that process. I mean, human resources were have lots of structures and tools, you know, things to make that possible for them. But when you sit down and really spend time with somebody and understand what the motivators are and help them move that forward, the career forward because of those motivators, then it changes the story. So you know, that's really been a big part of it. And then the third thing that's motivated me, honestly to become a coach is that I have had my own coach had a challenging life story from a personal perspective, which I'm very happy to
7:04 share, as well as a toxic work relationship at one point, and those things motivated me to get my own coach. And when you see what coach you can do for yourself, it's just really I want to leave. Essentially. Yeah, now you mentioned that you had your own coach, So how you know having your own coach, how are really coaching? How did that really impact your life? Because what if you mentioned you do have your own coach? Also? Yes, absolutely, in fact, just what every coach I know has their own coach, and it's all about what you can bring to the experience you share them with others, and so that becomes an important part of it. The shift was that I was able to step back from the issues that were just crowding me in and helping really making me struggle.
8:05 Essentially, like coach helped me see different perspectives, helped me see that what I had inside me to shift the challenges that were in front of me was all, as I said, was all there. And I you know, I'm resourceful and creative and whole, and I can bring the things that I need to to challenge the situation. I can bring those to the four I just need somebody to bring them out of me as a client or as a you know, as somebody needing that support. And I find that's the case with every coaching session that I have. Where As humans, we're all really I hold that we are all really creative and resourceful and whole, and we just can't get out of our own way sometimes. So, you know, being able to think about things differently because I'm being asked a really big challenging question and open question, you know that I can sit with and kind of think through the answers to just really help you bring that stuff out of yourself.
9:13 And we often say in coaching actually that the real work gets done in between the sessions because I will ask a client big question, and I will invite them to sit with that question as sort of like homework essentially, and then you know, journal on it, think about it, see what comes up for them, and when that occurs that they take the time to do that, as I did in my own experience, nine times out of ten, you get the answer, you get a new idea, you see a new perspective. I kind of like to say that it's like opening a window and letting all the light and air come in so that underneath that issue you've got all this new way of thinking. So that was the impact my own coach had, and I'm loving I'm to share that with others too. Now.
10:05 I noticed when I was reading about you one of the things you said that you uh, when you're coaching, you help them to build better boundaries, world satisfying relationships, and find fulfillment outside of work without in their edge. So most of your clients, the clients that you coach, are most of them women? Or do you have men too that you go majority of the women. I have had a couple of very brave, amazing male clients who because unfortunately we don't see a lot of men stepping into coaching. That's been my experience anyway, certainly not in the in the non leadership space.
10:48 But yes, most of my clients have been women, and they are most typically experiencing lots of success at work, doing great things, shooting the lights out, and yet they're miserable outside of work. They step back for a moment and realize that they have and they don't have a life that they hope they would have. Perhaps they don't have a partner in the point of life that they thought they would have been able to enjoy that don't have a family that is working really long hours, it's impossible that they feel it's impossible to say no to the demands of work. They can't stop because that impacts So they think that impacts their ability to get a promotion or the pay rise, or to to it'll make them look vulnerable or aren't able to perform the job.
11:41 And you know what I help them do is see that those things aren't necessarily true, and that if you want a life that is more fulfilling and has time for family, friendships, you know, good health, etc. Outside of work, then got to stop. Something's got to change, and putting some boundaries in place helps you, helps you say no to the things that just are not serving you and are impacting the way you know you truly want to live. It seems to be most of us can put up with that for a period of time, that sense of you know, this doesn't feel good, but look, I don't know what to do to change it. There comes a point in time where you sit back and reflect and say, I'm missing out. I'm not getting the things that I want and I feel miserable and potentially, you know, what I've even seen with some clients is that they're drinking too much, they're certainly eating the wrong things. So their health and lifestyle issues have been really impacted. And that's when it hits them in a poor sleep, not enough sleep, probably on an international phone call. And actually the one very brave male client that I had was a really clear example of the same thing. He was a family guy, he was in a global job that took him two different markets all around the world and tippy and he was based he actually was based in Australia and typically the phone calls and teammates that he had worked three a m. In the morning.
13:13 Now, something's got to give. You can't take doing that as a you know, as a as a human essentially, and that was week in, week out constantly. So that was one of the creators for him to find a way to try and make some change. Now, you you mentioned a lot of what I think are their pain points. Uh were going over some of the things that you So how do you help them to deal with some of these things? Because kind of went and through went, you know, and through a lot of things that you've been seeing as you've been coaching these ladies. How do you know, especially you know, you know you're coming out of an old year into a new year, and people start making these resolutions, and you know, because we want to change stuff that was going on and you know that the last year. So how do you help them through that? How do you get them to deal with these things?
14:15 It's a great question. One of the one of the things I've held true for this year particularly is that it's not about goals. It's about growth. And I read that somewhere and I can't remember that, but I loved the essence of that. So so you know, it's definitely not about making these amazing these resolutions that which don't think, you know, we won't be able to stick to. That's one of one of the key things that we do, one of the first things that we do together in our program of work, and it's typically if I just go back and step, it's typically either a three month program or a six month program, because what we know is the change doesn't happen overnight, and you have to connect. If you find a way to step in, take ownership of the journey you want to take, and make the changes that you want to make, and that does not happen in one or two sessions, so typically over the course of three or six months, will work on one of the first things around the values, So identifying your values, what they mean to you, how they show up in your life, and how you live them when you are sustaining those values in your life, and understanding and becoming very aware of when those values are being stomped on, Like the values are those things that are so intrinsically inside us that are they must must not be squashed. They must then unsquashable if
15:50 you like. And somebody gave you that to me, I love that, so you know that that sense that I need in tech, for example, in tech is critical to me. Honesty, adventure, exhilaration, creativity, joy, what you know, there are many all those beautiful words. We actually go through a couple of exercises around identifying those values and naming them, and then we start with a big long list and you can bring them into about ten that really start to resonate with you. And then I encourage my clients to really sharpen that down to at least so rather than at the most five key values that they absolutely know they cannot not have in their lives so that they become really guiding minds and guiding points for their lives. Once you know what your values are, then you can see where it's all going wrong.
16:51 Because, for example, if I value this is a part example, if I can value cree creativity and I'm in a job that gives me no spare hours in my day, my value of creativity is being squashed. I'm tolerating something that's not working for me, and that's why I feel miserable. It's why I often say it feels like sand in your shoe rubbing on you. You can kind of put up with it for a while, and then at some point it just you can't any longer. And that's when that a critical value, an important value in your life is not being honored, and that gives you a sense of what needs to change. So then we work on all right, Well, that set of values, those five or six doesn't know in that whatever the number of key values are that are really important to you must be present in your life. How do you create and preserve them? And so what boundaries do you need to put in place to stay in that creativity example or I'm not going to work past seven pm two or three nights a week, or I mean hopefully five nights a week. But you know, let's start somewhere. I'm going to allow for some space in my time. I have to be really clear about that. So I have to create a boundary and I need to stick with it. So the extension
18:21 of that then is I encourage my clients to create what I call a boundaries manifesto and sit down together and we talk about what boundaries are really important and we were manifesto essentially is when we state that what's truly important to us and we write it down and make a commitment we do that, then it's the starting point. There won't be so much you can do, you know, to help somebody get to that place. It's all the last to honor those boundaries, then expect that of us. Now you talked about the boundaries, the gning you know, their personal values and setting boundaries. So this is obviously important. So in the in your coaching with them, does this take a long time for them to you know, get through this? Is it?
19:15 Is it something that's really difficult for a lot of people to to try to figure sit down and actually say, Okay, this is exactly what my personal values are, this is exactly how I'm going to set my boundaries. And how important is it? Or why do boundaries matter? Because I know you hear people say, you know a kind of gloss over that a lot of times, you know, don't cross the boundary or something like that is something that really does matter to you know, and people, especially as you go to life, to make sure that you have those boundaries. Yeah, they absolutely matter. So to answer the first part of your question, the exercise of finding values, miney for our values, understanding what they are, and then setting the boundaries takes as long as it needs, quite honestly, and for some people achieving those an understanding of those things in their life might take weeks because I generally meet with a client every two weeks, sometimes a little more frequently, So if they've only we're together for three months, that's six weeks, and it might well take that period of time to get to that place. But it's a great launch pad then to either work together a little bit more or for them to feel comfortable to go out into the world
20:48 and kind of get started in implementing them. So it doesn't really matter how long it takes, but it's an important part of the process. Why boundaries matter is because they really establish a container for us to work in. They establish a sort of a framework that we can put around ourselves, our families, our work lives to say this is where I this is where I hold my space, and this is what's important to me. They give you a sense of control. That's the other very important thing. And you know, anybody who is finding that, they people tend to know what that their boundaries have been shifted or they've lost the sense of their boundaries. So we kind of all understand when we don't have them anymore. And the challenge is to have them back in our lives and to create a sense of control again, be able to say no, and to stand up and say no with confidence, with a sense of clarity of purpose, like why is that important to me? And to not feel you have to explain them away. That's the other really important thing about boundaries. You don't need to justify them. You know those boundaries are important to me. They may be different to your boundaries.
22:10 That's of course, that's fine, and so we're individual we don't need to explain them. So that becomes a really explaining and justifying them is probably a better word, you know. Now having said that, I realized that in a work context, it's not all it's not a better roses. It's not easy to say to your boss and sorry, I'm not going to be available for that nine pm phone call or that ten pm font call, whatever it might be. So finding a way to say it's important to me, for my clarity, for my health, for my whatever it is, my family situation, and just step into it and own it. And nine times out of ten what happens with when you set a boundary for yourself, step into it and owner giving permission to other people to do the same. And nine times out of ten, you know, so many people have said, you know that worked for me, and actually others took the lead as well or now done the same. And I just realized I gave them a gift in that sense. So it's it's interestingness when you stand up for yourself, others admire that it has the potential to change others. Absolutely. Yeah, So with your coaching programs, because I know, you know, everybody come to you have different you know that they're trying to work through well, how
23:41 do how do you tailor the strategies for for them individually? How do you do Yeah, it's really it's not a science, it's an art. And by that what I mean is that is up to me to listen clearly and to hear what the topic is. And there's no I mean, whilst most of my clients that are going to get value out of doing work on their values and their boundaries and you know, other elements of who they are, if that's not relevant, then that's not going to happen, you know. So it's entirely I'm not doing my job if I'm not listening to hear what the big topic is and see what's sitting under that. And it's almost well, that's actually how I do think about it. There's always like a big heading a topic, you know, I'm unhappy, I'm unfulfilled, i hate my job, whatever, and sitting underneath that are several other topics, and on any given day it's my job to create space for those other things to come up. And gender that's the one big thing that I think about a lot. I think about a lot that it's important to say, is not my agenda and it's not going to be my solutions that agenda, and the solutions will come through your own thinking and me helping you get there. Mm hmmm. So so you literally guide them through some of the challenges and opport,
25:19 you know, opportunities. That's that's a part of your program, right absolutely. Yeah. And when I and when we say guiding them through, I'm hearing that we might need to take it apart this way or this way, and I'm going to go like that, because honestly, every coaching session for one person can have a number of different elements to it, but what is important is getting to that topic. And then it's about the questions that I ask, that open questions. And you know, most of us, I hope no supposed we know the difference between an open and a close question, which is one that has tell me about or how is or what about you know, why blah blah blah, rather than a yes or no answer because something, And so that opens up a whole lot of opportunity for thinking differently. One of the other important things as I ask those sorts of questions is to create space for the answer. And honestly, there are times in some of our sessions where there is a beautiful silence that just needs to sit there and needs to needs to permeate the space so that as a client, they are able to just sit with what's going on in their minds. And it's important for me to encourage that space as well and encourage emotion will allow
26:49 for question at least, you know, and that nine times out of ten that will happen as well. So an honoring that's those spaces and those emotions and honoring you know, celebration and championing people as they go through their the answering of the questions and thinking about things. So does that kind of give you a sense of it? Absolutely? Absolutely so. I guess my next question then would be how has your own background and work experience and influence the way you understand and support your clients. Yeah, that's where that's where I think. I mean, some of my challenges have been tough, like we all have had, of course, but they definitely build an empathy. I think that is that I found very valuable. So, I mean I had a successful career in human resources, and at the very end of it, in the last six months of essentially I had a very toxic work situation that meant I needed to change obviously the work situation itself, but along the way, I had a charlat big challenge in my relationship that created well, my husband and I separated for ten years, so during that time I was very vulnerable and I was feeling very unsure and lost confidence and the only thing that
28:25 I was good at actually was the job for a time, and I put up with an awful lot of toxicity until there came a time when I just knew this is not healthy, helpful and not healthy. And having a coach at that time to just ask the questions, open up what else is possible? Change the way I thought about things allowed me to number one, leave that job with confidence and step into my own coaching work. And number two, more recently from that, my husband I came back together again, and you know, we have a very different life now as a result. And I know that it would not have been possible with coaching, because I would have held all sorts of judgments and challenges with frustrations close to my chest and told nobody about them, your friends and he's important being actually the coaching coaching with actions and homework and that sort of stuff. When I can talk more about that in a minute. But that is very different from having a really great coaching, a really great conversation with a girlfriend. The straight is there, you know, the willingness to challenge your client to bring something out of them, or to remind them that they said they wanted to change something and you're doing it again. Is that where you want to go? Do your client? That loving challenging is really important. And I experienced all that coach
29:57 that helped, and that part of my life became really an important driver for what I know. I want to help other women achieve, which is fulfillment and enjoy it. M hm. So do you know your work has had an impact on your class? I mean, you know what kind of feedback do you get for The one big thing I love is referrals, of course, So whenever I get a referral, that's brilliant, and that tells me, yeah, that's a good thing. Somebody has appreciated what I've done. The other thing I do, actually part of my my community and reaching out to my community and sharing my thoughts with my community is that I do have a weekly newsletter and I get lots of lovely responses from that because I write in a very heartfelt, vulnerable kind of way. So that's, you know, that's an important feedback tool. And honestly, it is feedback along the way and the coaching journey. And I really welcome a client saying to me that question, don't ask me that question that's too hard, or please don't go there. I don't want to, you know, give me homework, give me more homework. And when I say homework, give me a journaling exercise to do or give me something to think about, a question to ponder.
31:22 I want that, and so I welcome the two the conversations that go on. Mm hmmm hmm. So tell us, do you have anything coming up on the horizon, any training or any you know thing that you want to let us know about. Yeah, I want to. I'd like to say I have more than I do because I'm doing some other I've got projects in place that are not quite ready to land yet. I am for anybody in the Colorado area. I will be working with a colleague on a workshop coming up just after Valentine's Day and we'll be sorry, there's some noise in my background. I hope that's not not hearing that. So this is this workshop coming up on the fifteenth of February is a workshop where we will be going through values and boundaries and looking out where at parts of our life.
32:22 We call it the wheel of life, where we'll be looking at those elements of our lives that are fulfilled and not and be fairly high level. But it'll be fun journey. We haven't got our details all lined up yet, but that's coming, so I could certainly share that in due course. The main thing is that I truly welcome having a discovery conversation with potential clients, and so people are interested in finding out more about coaching with me, what our programs, my programs look like, sharing a little bit about their challenges and seeing whether coaching is the right thing for them. I really welcome a discovery conversation and they are complimentary. So for certainly for your listeners here, really welcome you to pick up the phone or jump on the website and book a session with me. As I said, it's complementary and over the course of thirty or forty minutes together we can get a sense of what's going on for you and how coaching can help your situation. And you know, I say, even though you're not you may have different talent challenges to the sorts of things we've discussed here. As a life coach, you know, we go there and there's really no limits, so I really welcome and invite.
33:46 So if you had one piece of advice to leave with our viewers and our listeners, what would that piece of advice be. Oh, that's a great question. So much. One big thing that is on my heart is to say, don't sit with things that are bothering you, don't let them overwhelm you. And so that you go into twenty twenty four feeling the way you did in twenty twenty three, start afresh, take the opportunity. And I will say, even if there is something that is a potentially good opportunity or a good something good coming that you don't know how to get to or don't know how to achieve or obtain, that's also worth coaching on as well to help you get there. So it's not only about struggling and challenging the challenges, it's about stepping into new opportunities as well. So don't be the person you were or the things that don't live into the things that were holding you back in community to get some coaching have a conversation. Absolutely believe it.
35:00 If our viewers and our listeners wanted to reach out to you, how can they do so? Yes, I think you'll be posting the website my website, and that's really the most efficient way I think at this point. With that, you'll be able to jump onto my email, my network and get the usual newsletter sorry every week. So that'll be wonderful and I really welcome that. And then that gives you access to who I am a little bit more about me. So between my website and then jumping on and sharing your email address and picking up the newsletter each week, that's fine. The other thing I'd absolutely welcome, of course, is that people just contact me directly on jen at life first coaching dot com. I love that too, so and I really welcome that, and your social media platforms also too. Yes, And I just just dropped last week's well, just dropped my most recent newsletter on Facebook and leaked in today. Now that I will say is new Jennifer me.
