The Life Coach School Podcast

Brooke Castillo built a multi-million dollar coaching empire, and this podcast is where she shares the thinking frameworks that got her there. The show started in 2014 and has a very specific format: Brooke talks directly to you, solo, for 20 to 40 minutes about one concept at a time. No guests, no banter, no filler. Just Brooke and a microphone working through ideas about emotional management, decision-making, and building a life on your own terms. Her central tool is something called the Model -- a framework for understanding how thoughts create feelings, which drive actions, which produce results. It sounds simple because it is. But Brooke applies it to everything from weight loss to earning more money to dealing with difficult family members, and she does it with a bluntness that some people love and others find polarizing. She does not sugarcoat. When she thinks you are making excuses, she will say so. The show has over 550 episodes and a 4.7-star rating from nearly 9,000 reviews. Weekly episodes cover a mix of coaching philosophy, business strategy, and personal stories from her own life. Her more recent episodes have a weekly format that feels like a personal check-in. Worth noting: Brooke also runs a paid coaching certification program, so the podcast does double duty as both genuine teaching and a funnel for that business. That transparency is refreshing, honestly. You always know where you stand with her.
