Finding Greatness

Today I’m getting real about one of the hardest but most powerful lessons we all face: knowing when to let go or say no. Sometimes it’s not about choosing between good and bad, it’s about choosing between good and great. I’m sharing what it looks like to pause, reevaluate, and make bold decisions that align with your biggest goals, even when it feels uncomfortable.If you’ve ever struggled with letting go of something that still matters to you, this conversation will give you the clarity and courage to trust your gut and chase what truly deserves your full-hearted yes.   Stay connected with me on Instagram @paigelawrencecoaching

I'm fired up and ready to talk about something that hits close to home—balancing motherhood and being an ambitious entrepreneur. I came across a quote that said women are expected to work like they don't have kids, mother like they don't have a job, and look like they are effortlessly managing both. Why are we promoting this narrative of perfection? Join me as I break down these unrealistic expectations and share my personal journey of integrating motherhood with my business. I'll talk about the importance of setting your own standards, establishing clear boundaries, and leading with authenticity. Let's challenge the status quo together and empower other women to do the same. Even if you aren't a mom, this episode has takeaways that will change the way you approach business. Tune in, reflect on some crucial questions, and let's redefine what success looks like!   What you'll hear in this episode: [0:50] Balancing Motherhood and Ambition [2:15] Challenging Unrealistic Expectations [6:15] Redefining Success and Setting Boundaries [7:35] Personal Experiences and Lessons Learned [15:05] The Power of Leading Differently   Related Episodes: How to Ignite Change and Reclaim Your Control How to Stay True to Yourself and Rise Above the Norm Stop Settling for Less: How I Pushed Myself to Succeed in Business and Motherhood   Connect with Paige on Instagram @paigelawrencecoaching

Whew—this episode is one for the books, friends! A recent phone call with my brother inspired me to share some ridiculous but useful advice that he has given me over the years. Let's dig into the power of embracing imperfection (hello, recovering perfectionists!) and why action always beats waiting for the “perfect plan.” We also touched on another nugget of advice that seemed laughable on the surface but ended up rocking my perspectives. Oh—and if you’ve ever struggled with juggling ambitious goals while also trying to keep your joy and playful spirit intact, we’ve got thoughts. Real talk, real laughs, and some surprising truth bombs in this one.   What you'll hear in this episode: [0:50] Unscripted Inspiration: A Chat with My Brother [4:00] My Brother's Advice that I Don't Always Need A Plan [5:20] Embracing Imperfection and Taking Action [8:25] My Brother's Advice to Take Time to Have Fun and Infuse More Joy into Life [10:55] Balancing Goals with Joy and Play [15:00] Conclusion and Call to Action   Related Episodes: Overcoming Fear and Taking Action Get Playful to Rediscover Your Youthful Joy Breaking Through Inaction   Connect with Paige on Instagram @paigelawrencecoaching

I’m pulling back the curtain on a life-changing lesson I got from one of my coaches that shook me to my core—in the best way possible. This isn’t just another motivational fluff piece; we’re diving deep into the truth that changed everything for me: radical ownership. Yep, the moment I stopped blaming outside circumstances and took full, fierce responsibility for my life, everything shifted. From how I show up in my business to the way I chase my goals, this mindset flipped the script—and it can do the same for you.   We’re unpacking exactly what embracing the process looks like (spoiler: it’s not linear, but it is worth it), and I’m giving you the lowdown on how to make clear, confident decisions even when life feels like a chaotic mess. And let’s talk about boundaries—specifically, saying a big, unapologetic NO to the distractions, people, and habits that block your greatness. This episode is your permission slip to stop playing small and start acting like the CEO of your damn life. Because when you start practicing radical ownership? You stop waiting for clarity and start creating momentum.   What you'll hear in this episode: [1:10] A Life-Changing Lesson from My Coach [9:15] The Power of Radical Ownership [11:15] Embracing the Process and Making Decisions [12:55] The Importance of Saying No to Things That Stand in the Way of Your Goals [13:15] Radical Ownership Give You Power to Achieve Your Goals [15:25] What Embracing Radical Ownership Means   Related Episodes: How Embracing Hard Situations Leads to Entrepreneurial Growth Own Your High Impact Year How to Navigate Common Traps as a High Achiever   Connect with Paige on Instagram @paigelawrencecoaching

I’m diving into something that punched me right in the soul—a personal story that reminded me just how powerful words really are. I’m talking about those seemingly small sentences that land like a ton of bricks and totally rewire how you see yourself. I share how one comment cracked me wide open and made me rethink how I was showing up in my own journey. And trust me, if you've ever let one person’s words hijack your confidence or light a fire under your butt, you’ll feel this one. It's raw, real, and honestly? Kinda hilarious in hindsight.   From there, we take a turn into the trenches—the place where I see so many of my clients get stuck. You know the moment: you're doing all the things, chasing the dream, and then suddenly… BAM. Wall. Hit. Hard. And what follows is the quiet but sneaky shift from growth to fear. Instead of acting from expansion and possibility, we start reacting from contraction and protection. And who’s the drama queen behind all of this? Our ego. I’m unpacking the messy, sneaky ways ego shows up and how it convinces us that playing small is safe. Spoiler alert: it’s not. It’s just keeping us stuck in a loop of second-guessing and self-sabotage.   But babe, don’t worry—this episode isn’t just a roast of your inner saboteur. I’m also calling on your Highest Self—the part of you that knows you were made for more. The version of you that’s here to grow, lead, and find your greatness. I’ll guide you back to that voice, that energy, that perspective that says, “I’m ready to rise.”   What you'll hear in this episode: [1:10] A Personal Anecdote: The Power of Words [1:45] Client Struggles: Hitting a Wall [3:45 ]The Shift from Growth to Fear [5:55] Ego vs. Growth: The Internal Battle [9:35] Ego Driven Perspectives [10:09] The Perspective of Your Highest Self that Desires Growth   Related Episodes: Embrace These 10 Small Changes to Build a Better You Uncomplicate Your Success Mindset Habits To Leave Behind This Year   Connect with Paige on Instagram @paigelawrencecoaching

I’m pulling back the curtain on one of the biggest dualities I know: being a badass in business and a devoted mama. Yep, we’re talking about motherhood—the magic, the mess, and how it shakes up every damn thing, from your daily routine to your biggest business goals. I’m sharing the raw, real deal of what it’s like to hold yourself to sky-high standards while also keeping tiny humans alive. Spoiler alert: it’s not all curated Instagram stories and cute planners.   We’re getting into the gritty truth of what it really means to juggle entrepreneurship and motherhood. I’m dishing on how I’ve handled (and sometimes flopped through) external judgments, and how I’ve learned to stop looking for a gold star from the world and start validating myself. If you’ve ever felt like no one sees the hustle behind your highlight reel—this one’s for you. Oh, and we’re not stopping there. I’m calling out the self-imposed limitations we all put on ourselves. You know the ones—those little voices whispering “not enough.” It’s time to shut them down and step into our full power. So if you're ready to stop waiting for permission and start owning your greatness as a mom, a leader, and a woman who’s here to dominate—hit play now. Let’s find your greatness… together.   What you'll hear in this episode: [0:55] Motherhood and Its Impact on Life and Business [2:20] Facing Challenges and Setting High Standards [3:20] The Reality of Balancing Motherhood and Entrepreneurship [6:10] Dealing with External Judgments and Self-Validation [10:45] The Unseen Efforts and Personal Validation [19:40] Overcoming Self-Imposed Limitations   Related Episodes: How Embracing Hard Situations Leads to Entrepreneurial Growth How to Work Smarter and Live Fully Parenting Lessons That Fuel Entrepreneurial Greatness with My Husband, Richmond Champion   Connect with Paige on Instagram @paigelawrencecoaching

If you've ever found yourself running on empty, crossing 37 things off your to-do list—but still feeling like you're getting nowhere—then buckle up, because this one's for you. I kick things off by sharing a real-deal, behind-the-scenes story from my days as a high-performance athlete, when I finally learned the difference between just grinding... and training strategically.

Okay friends, buckle up—because in this episode we’re diving headfirst into the cold, hard truth about embracing discomfort... and yes, I’m starting with a literal cold tub. Ever dunked yourself into freezing water on purpose? It’s a vibe—and it’s also a powerful metaphor for how choosing hard things can build insane mental toughness. I’m unpacking how deliberately tolerating discomfort doesn’t make you crazy—it makes you capable. Because here’s the thing: your tolerance for hard directly shapes the size of your dreams. The higher your tolerance, the higher your ceiling. And spoiler alert: greatness doesn’t come to the people who wait until things feel easy—it comes to the ones who show up anyway.   We’re also getting into the gritty (and kind of liberating?) truth that you don’t have to feel good to perform well. Like, newsflash: how you feel isn't the boss of your effort. I’m sharing why learning to execute despite discomfort is a total game-changer, and how redefining your relationship with hard things can actually make life feel more aligned, more energizing, and yep—even more fun. Because hard doesn’t have to equal miserable. Sometimes, it’s exactly where the magic happens.

Focus isn’t just a buzzword—it’s everything. If you want to be truly great, you need to zero in on what matters most, and that’s what today’s episode is all about. I’m breaking down the absolute necessity of focus, and trust me, you can’t get there without a plan. You need to map it out first, because without a clear strategy, your focus will scatter like confetti at a parade. The magic happens when you turn that plan into action, so once you’ve got your roadmap in place, it's all about execution.   The key to success isn’t in wishing or hoping—it’s in putting in the work, staying consistent, and executing that plan like a true champion. But here’s the thing: focus doesn’t mean you can do it all. You’ve got to make hard decisions about what to prioritize, and that’s where the power of saying "no" comes in. Saying no might feel uncomfortable at first, but it’s a total game-changer when it comes to keeping distractions at bay and protecting your time.   You can’t be everything to everyone. That’s why it’s so important to make choices about what truly matters and what’s going to move you closer to greatness. And here's the kicker: you’ve also got to recover! I know, I know—you’re all about that hard work, but without recovery, you’re just running on fumes. Focus isn’t just about working hard, it’s about working smart, and taking the time to recharge is crucial for maintaining long-term success.
