The moment the on‑air light flipped red, everything changed. Christine Blosdale walked into a radio studio expecting to crumble and walked out with a voice people couldn’t ignore. That spark carried her from AOL entertainment writer to independent radio host and now a coach who helps women stop playing small and claim their expert authority with clear, compelling language.

We talk about the sliding‑doors choices that follow a crisis of purpose, from reassessing her work in celebrity culture after 9/11 to discovering a community‑funded station that prized analysis over noise. Christine breaks down how to build a bridge from talent to authority: keep your day job while you lay foundations, sell what your dream clients actually want, and name your value in words people instantly understand. She shares how podcasting became a simple, high‑leverage platform for visibility, then explains why she pivoted as the market shifted toward brand messaging, positioning, and packaging expertise.

Imposter syndrome gets the honest treatment here and Christine’s antidote is service over self: focus on the person you help, not how you look. We trade tactics for momentum, from publishing books that boost SEO and credibility to using podcast guesting to open doors and deepen relationships.

Along the way, we explore designing work around your energy. Short, focused bursts, real rest, and routines that invite ideas can make authority feel natural instead of forced. Expect concrete steps, candid stories, and permission to evolve as your audience evolves. If you’re multi‑passionate, we’ll help you choose a clear entry point without abandoning your range and if you’re waiting to feel ready, consider this your nudge to speak and show up right now!

Have you ever felt trapped by the daily grind and responsibilities, shrunk yourself to 'fit in' or followed the rules then realised they didn't bring you the success or happiness you'd been promised? Tick, tick and tick. My life had plateaued, my unused potential was wasting away and I felt powerless to change anything. I wanted to escape but instead of running away, I decided that ordinary is optional, and I could DECIDE to live authentically, put FUN back on the agenda and do more of the things that made me feel alive. This podcast is one of them and through these conversations I'd love nothing more than to be able to help you do the same!

Waiting for perfect clarity can feel safe, but it’s often the very thing keeping us stuck. This week I'm talking about why the first step isn’t a five-year plan or a neat job title, it’s rebellion—small, deliberate acts that shake you out of autopilot and remind your nervous system that you’re allowed to want what you want. From saying no to the plan you don’t want to changing one tiny routine on purpose, these micro moves create momentum, and momentum invites clarity to catch up.

You’ll hear stories from starting the podcast without a final format to navigating midlife defaults that run quiet but deep. We dig into why creating intentional space from the productivity treadmill is essential if you want your real voice to be heard. Think of this as a compassionate push: try the thing you’ve been overthinking, even if you do it badly at first, because action is the fastest teacher.

Expect practical prompts you can use today: write a “things I’d love to do if nobody judged me” list, follow your curiosity for an hour with no outcome, and pick one micro mischief to test this week. I'm not promising certainty; I'm offering a way to build working clarity through movement. If you’re feeling pressure to define 2026 still, with a word of the year or a master plan, this conversation gives you permission to start smaller and go deeper.

If this resonates, follow along, share this with a friend who needs a nudge, and leave a review so others can find it. Want to keep in touch as new things take shape? Join the mailing list and say hello on Instagram or LinkedIn—tell me the tiny rebellion you’ll try next!

If you're feeling stuck or trapped by the daily grind, book a 1:1 coaching session with me and let's get you the momentum you're looking for

Endings don’t need noise to matter. They need honesty, time, and the courage to pause when the calendar demands motion. I'm sharing a rare behind‑the‑scenes moment: why the podcast is heading toward its final chapters, and how I'm letting the ending arrive on its own schedule rather than forcing a finish for the sake of a date.

Together we unpack the difference between finishing and ending well, and how cultural pressure—deadlines, year‑end goals, “new year, new you”—can push us to rush what deserves care. You’ll hear personal stories of exits done too fast, the hollowness that follows, and the subtle relief of stepping back to notice what’s truly complete. We explore the quiet mechanics of clarity: waiting longer than is comfortable, following energy instead of a plan, and allowing direction to surface in small, steady signals. Think seasonally, not just strategically; winter is for rest and nature works in cycles.

I also share two practical anchors. First, the podcast will rest over the holidays so the final episodes can land with integrity, not obligation. Second, for anyone stuck between fatigue and possibility, the Rebel Reset offers a focused 90‑minute session to cut through fog and choose a next step that actually feels like you.

If this speaks to you, follow along or share with a friend who needs permission to rest, thoughtful endings and brave new beginnings...

By the way, Here's that full article from Kim @ Clementine
