61:Back Yourself: Transformative Coaching & Unleashing Your Inner Power with Karina Murphy

Welcome to another powerful episode of Rise and Thrive Conversations for Greatness. Today, I have the absolute pleasure of reintroducing Karina Murphy, the amazing high-performance coach and founder of Next Level Results Accelerator. Karina is back on the show, and her insights are more impactful than ever before. As someone who has empowered countless individuals over her 18-year career, Karina is the real deal when it comes to coaching, growth, and achieving your dreams.

In this first part of the episode, Karina and I dive deep into the drama triangle—a game-changing concept that will transform the way you view conflict and the roles we unconsciously play when we're stuck in the middle of it. Whether you're the rescuer, the persecutor, or the victim, Karina breaks down these roles and explains why they can hold you back from living your best life. Through her own personal journey of balancing coaching, homeschooling her daughter Savannah, and navigating life's ups and downs, Karina offers valuable insights on how to recognize and shift these patterns.

You’ll hear about:

• The power of coaching and how it can create rapid transformations in your life.
• Karina’s own story of working with her daughter and how she’s practicing what she teaches—meeting people where they're at.
• The concept of the drama triangle—why we unconsciously step into roles that limit our power and how to break free from them.
• The value of listening—both as a coach and in your own relationships.
• And of course, the importance of backing yourself in every decision you make.

This episode is packed with practical tools that will help you reframe the way you think, communicate, and show up for yourself. Karina is living proof that coaching works, and having someone by your side to keep you on track can make all the difference.

If you’re ready to unlock your inner power and take your growth to the next level, you won’t want to miss this episode. It’s the perfect way to gain clarity and motivation for the year ahead. Karina’s warmth and wisdom shine through every word, and I promise, this conversation will leave you thinking long after you’ve finished listening.

Be sure to tune in to the next episode where we continue our conversation with Karina, complete the drama triangle, and introduce her exclusive 5-day challenge that will help you kickstart your year with purpose and confidence.
