In this episode of Following The Joy, I sit down with Hayley Smith, a transformation coach dedicated to helping driven and ambitious women create a life they love.
Hayley shares her fascinating career journey, from studying Economics and French at university, to teaching, then accountancy, and recruitment, and how each path led her to discover her passion for coaching.
We delve into the powerful impact of facing mortality and how it can motivate us to make significant life changes, but Hayley emphasises that you don't need to wait for such moments to start living the life you desire. She offers insightful advice on taking the first step towards your goals and trusting that it will all work out.
Hayley opens up about her personal struggles, including a diagnosis of clinical depression at 21, the support she received from counselling and coaching, and her empowering decision to come off medication when she realised her own strength and resources.
We discuss the importance of making conscious choices in moving forward from challenging situations, and Hayley shares her love for her business, which never feels like work to her.
Starting a business is a challenging journey, and we talk about the steep learning curve and the importance of recognizing your progress along the way.
Join us for an inspiring and candid conversation about transformation, self-belief, and the journey to creating a fulfilling life.
