From Hollywood to Life Coaching: Randy’s Journey
BIWE: Randy, many people know you from the entertainment industry. What led you to life coaching?
Randy Spelling: I grew up in Hollywood. My father was a television producer, my sister an actress. It felt like acting and entertainment was my destiny. But deep inside, I didn’t feel like it was my path. At 27, I was searching for purpose. No matter how much success I had, I felt empty. That’s when I turned to self-discovery and personal growth. I eventually became a certified life coach and have never looked back.
Lesson: Sometimes, the life you think you’re “supposed” to live isn’t the one meant for you. You have to listen to your inner voice.
The Habit-Stacking Secret to Success
BIWE: One thing you talk about a lot is habit stacking. Can you share what it is and how it helps?
Randy Spelling: Yes! Habit stacking is a simple yet powerful way to build new habits by attaching them to existing ones.
Example:
• If you drink coffee every morning, do your affirmations before your first sip.
• If you want to start working out, commit to exercising before checking your phone.
Why it works: Your brain already expects the old habit—so by linking a new habit to it, you increase your chances of success.
Action Step: Think of one habit you do daily—can you add a small positive habit before it?
Overcoming Addiction & Finding Purpose
BIWE: You’ve been open about your struggles with addiction. How did you overcome it?
Randy Spelling: At one point, I was lost in addiction, numbing myself with substances. It wasn’t until my father passed away that I had a wake-up call. I realized I had been chasing success for external validation, but what I really needed was internal transformation. I went into treatment, got help, and started rebuilding my life from the inside out. That was the beginning of my journey as a life coach.
Lesson: You don’t need to hit rock bottom to change. But if you do, know that transformation is always possible.
How to Build Self-Confidence & Overcome Fear
BIWE: Many people struggle with self-confidence. What’s your advice?
Randy Spelling:
Confidence isn’t about being perfect—it’s about trusting yourself.
The reason people lack confidence? They break promises to themselves.
Start small—set a goal and follow through.
Example: If you tell yourself you’ll put your phone away before bed but don’t, you weaken self-trust. The more you follow through on small promises, the stronger your confidence becomes.
Action Step: What’s one small promise you can make—and keep—to yourself today?
How the Environment Affects Your Success
BIWE: What if someone wants to change but is stuck in a negative environment?
Randy Spelling: Your environment matters, but it doesn’t have to define you. If you can’t physically change your surroundings, you must double down on changing your mindset.
Create a mental escape—practice gratitude, visualization, and positive self-talk.
Limit exposure to negativity (news, toxic people, distractions).
Surround yourself with positive influences—even if it’s through books, podcasts, or online communities.
Lesson: Change starts from within. Don’t wait for your environment to improve before you do.
Final Thoughts: Your Transformation Starts Now
BIWE: If someone is feeling stuck, what’s the first step they should take?
Randy Spelling: First, acknowledge that change is possible. Many people stay stuck because they don’t believe they can change.
Take Action Today:
Pick one small habit and commit to it for 7 days.

Remember: Your transformation begins with one decision.
