Creating Lasting Change: How Consistency and Support Drive Sustainable Results
In this podcast episode, I dive into the importance of consistency, specifically focusing on how obtaining support can lead to lasting change and sustainable results. The episode begins with me recounting a conversation with a client who aspired to achieve consistency in bringing in clients for her business. I highlighted the concept of "single tasking," emphasizing the significance of breaking down goals into manageable steps.
Next, the importance of having an accountability partner is discussed, underlining the value of finding someone who genuinely cares about your goals. The episode further explores the idea of creating rituals or routines centered around desired changes, and the benefits of monitoring progress and cultivating a supportive environment. I conclude by encouraging listeners to pick one goal at a time, referencing The Accountability Code and offering assistance to those seeking guidance in achieving consistency.

In this episode, I talk about the role of reflection in the accountability code, sharing a personal story from my book, Doubt Yourself No More. I reflect on trying out for cheerleading in high school, initially to prove a point, but later realizing how reflection evolves when you take action. I explain that reflection is about thinking through your goals, values, and challenges, and as you act on them, your reflection changes, helping you grow and build confidence. This process helps you become more accountable and stay focused on your goals.

In this episode, I share how to set a clear eight-week goal using the Accountability Code, a framework designed to help you take action. Many people struggle with defining their focus, so I walk through six key steps: reflection (identifying your goal), humility (recognizing what’s holding you back), planning (creating a roadmap), implementing (taking action), commitment (declaring your goal), and feedback (evaluating progress). The Accountability Accelerator provides structure and support to help participants stay on track, but even if you're not in the program, you can still apply these steps to make real progress.

I also highlighted stories from my clients, like Kim, who successfully hosted events by adapting the accountability code, and Susan, who realized she needed to trust herself more to improve her business. The key takeaway is that being accountable isn’t about following a rigid plan, it’s about adjusting and taking action in a way that works for you.
