85. Leaning into Self Trust with 3/5 Generator Julie Costa

podcast Mar 27, 2025

From the moment I met Julie Costa, it felt like reconnecting with an old friend. You know those people who just get you? That’s Julie. And having her on the podcast this week was such a gift. She’s a 3/5 Generator, certified Master Clinical Hypnotherapist, and NLP trainer, but beyond her impressive credentials, Julie walks her talk when it comes to self-trust, alignment, and honoring the seasons of business.

 

This episode isn’t just about strategy or mindset, it’s about the space where the two collide. We tad I go deep into the real-life stuff that business coaches don’t always talk about: the duality of success and grief, the fear behind visibility, and what it actually looks like to expand your nervous system to hold more, more clients, more money, more visibility, more impact.

Trusting the Seasons of Business

If you’re in a slower season, or pivoting, or simply trying to hold your vision while the path feels murky, this conversation is for you. Julie shares how she’s creating intentional space in her calendar, turning inward, and building her next evolution with clarity and ease. Her journey is such a beautiful reminder that building a business isn’t about rushing, it’s about trusting.

What We Talk About in This Episode

  • The power of showing up, consistently, even in the messy middle
  • How Julie turned a “flop” into a wildly successful offer just by listening to her audience
    Creating real white space (not just another “to-do” masked as self-care)
  • Why she said NO to a major opportunity, and how that became an act of radical self-trust
  • What happens when we stop people-pleasing and start honoring our own timelines
  • Navigating cancellations, income dips, and the fear that comes with growth seasons
