19. The dance of grief and gratitude in life and business with Robyn Gooding

SensuAlchemy School Podcast with Kate Leiper

Meet Robyn Gooding, an Embodied business Strategist who’s approach to supporting women changed dramatically once she found herself navigating a painful fertility journey and devastating miscarriage. Robyn shares openly and honestly about her dance with grief and the ways she’s learned to find gratitude in the struggle. She also speaks to her uniquely beautiful way to support her clients to reject prescribed shoulds of the coaching industry and towards an approach to business that feels embodied and aligned to who they are and the season of life they're in.

Robyn is a global business strategist, a certified life coach and currently certifying as a feminine embodiment coach. She works with feminine visionaries who are daring to rebel against rigid business practices and rather lean into their own intuition and wisdom, whilst also being supported by world class business strategy.

Her work is devoted to the economic mobility of women, who desire to no longer choose between parenthood and purpose outside of the home. She works with coaches, healers, holistic practitioners and service providers in the personal development and wellness space.

Today, Kate and Robyn discuss:

+ What loss and longing are alive in Robyn right now as a Mother, Partner and Business owner

+ How her flavour of Embodied Business Strategy differs from traditional business coaching

+ What major grief was the catalyst for Robyn to do away with pouring energy into vanity metrics in her business and towards pleasure over pressure

+ What Robyn’s emotionally challenging fertility journey has taught her about the way she wants to show up in service to her family and her clients

+ How Robyn dances between Grief and Gratitude on a daily basis (and how these rituals of devotion have changed her life)

+ How Robyn supports her clients to move away from following prescribed shoulds of the industry and towards an approach to business that feels embodied and aligned to who they are and the season of life they're in
