    🎙️Ep7 Off-Topic but On-Point: The Rooms That Remind You Who You Are
    Oct 2 2025
    🔥 Why This Topic Hits Right Now and why you should be apart itWe are in a post-digital burnout era. Zoom fatigue, algorithmic isolation, and the illusion of connection through vanity metrics have left coaches, teachers, and leaders hungry for something deeper: real, in-person transformation. The trend isn’t just nostalgia—it’s a recalibration. Because if the last few years taught us anything, it’s this: screens scale your voice, but rooms shape your vision.More and more thought leaders are realizing: “If I want to grow, I need a room where I’m not the smartest person.” And in the coaching and consulting world, the future doesn’t belong to those who only master technique — it belongs to those who can build ecosystems of trust, alignment, and embodiment. And those ecosystems are being built offline again. 10 IN10TIONAL Minutes with Janine is a reader-supported publication.

The Re-Rise of the RoomThere’s a noticeable shift happening — from webinars to workshops, from funnels to fireside conversations. In-person masterminds, curated boardrooms, and private learning circles are back. Why? Because transformation travels faster through trust.We answer:“What’s the most powerful in-person room you’ve ever been in — and what did it unlock for you?”2. Why Coaches, Consultants, Teacher, Entrepreneurs & YOU Must Be in the Right RoomYour proximity affects your perception. Your vision expands in the presence of aligned people. And let’s be honest — no mirror is as honest as a trusted table of peers.“Online gives you scale. But in-person gives you substance.”“What does a great room do for your identity, not just your brand?”3. What’s Changing in 2025 and 2026Remember I have been tell you COMMUNITY IS THE CURRENCY OF THE FUTURE.. well here we go and this is how it is going to look like!We’re not just seeing collabs for content — we’re seeing collaborations that prioritize character and growth.Real alliances are being built around legacy, integrity, and long-term vision — not just launch calendars.More than ever, people are craving:* Safety to be seen* Synergy of thought and purpose* Strategy rooted in humanityThe coaching industry is evolving — facilitation is no longer enough. The real edge? Community curation.“Why do you think people are willing to invest more now to be in curated rooms rather than free webinars or public online groups?”4. What to Look for in a RoomThe best rooms aren’t the biggest. They’re the most aligned. Look for:* Trust over trophies* Curated over crowded* Legacy over ego* Story over strategy“If the room requires you to perform, it’s not your room. If it helps you return to who you are, stay.”5. If You’re Not in a Room Yet… Here’s Where to StartStart with resonance, not recognition. Don’t chase the room with the most followers — go where your becoming is safe.* Join circles that reflect your values, not just your goals.* Start small. A monthly peer group, a local coffee table, a trusted triad.* Remember: You don’t need 100 people. You need 10 honest ones.Are you looking for a room like this? We each run our own:* Dr. Janine and Gustav Gous – The Leadership Boardroom - Randburg, JHB, South Africa* Christo – The Collective - Boksburg, JHB South Africa * Odette – SustainHer - Adelaide, AustraliaThese aren’t marketing funnels. They’re transformational rooms. DM us or comment to learn how to join.“What’s the room that changed you — and how do you make sure you’re now creating that kind of space for others?” Get full access to 10 IN10TIONAL Minutes with Janine at janinedocabo.substack.com/subscribe

  • #Ep60 Automate with Soul: How This Techpreneur is Rewiring the Coaching Industry

    #Ep60 Automate with Soul: How This Techpreneur is Rewiring the Coaching Industry
    Aug 15 2025

    The Myth: You Need to Do Everything Manually to Stay Authentic.

    The truth?Authenticity is a system.One that runs in the background while you lead, sell, serve — and live.

    This week on 10 IN10TIONAL Minutes with Janine, I sit down with Tuli, a quiet force in the tech world who’s helping coaches, consultants, and creatives build systems that don’t just work — they win.

    Tuli doesn’t believe in automation for the sake of it. She builds tech that respects your brand voice, protects your peace, and creates bookings in your sleep.

    If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by tech, lost in your CRM, or stuck duct-taping platforms together — this conversation will recalibrate the way you think about systems.

    Key Moments You Don’t Want to Miss

    * Why systems are the soul infrastructure of any coaching business

    * The 3 mistakes every coach is making with tech — and how to fix them

    * What Tuli learned inside Marketing Cosmetics™ — and how it helped her scale smarter, not noisier

    * How to use AI without losing your voice

    * Why the backend of your business reflects the belief system of your brand

    * One thing every founder should automate this month — no matter what

    What You’ll Walk Away With

    * A mindset shift: from managing tech to mastering it

    * Real insight into tools that talk to each other (not just exist on your laptop)

    * A strategy-first approach to automation

    * Permission to scale without losing the human connection

    * A real-world example of what happens when you combine Marketing Cosmetics™ with systems thinking

    Listen to the Episode

    Great businesses don’t just attract leads. They manage momentum.

    Tuli’s work is a reminder that you don’t need more hustle — you need smarter highways.

    If this episode spoke to you, reply to this post and tell me:🛠️ What’s one thing you need to automate — but haven’t?Let’s make it make sense.

  • 🎙️Ep6 Strong minds don’t come from TED Talks—they come from squats.

    🎙️Ep6 Strong minds don’t come from TED Talks—they come from squats.
    Aug 8 2025

    Friends,

    We just wrapped a 🔥 new episode of Off Topic but On Point, and I have to tell you — it hit different.

    We weren’t talking about strategy. Or scaling. Or even social media.We were talking about something more primal, more personal, more powerful:

    👉 Your body.👉 Your strength.👉 Your ability to lead, build, and endure — starting from the inside out.

    Because here's the thing:

    You can’t show up sharp in your mind if you’re falling apart in your body.

    In this episode, I’m joined by Odette de Beer (The Alchemist) and Christo (The Expander) as we break open a truth many leaders overlook:

    🔥 Fitness is not about how you look. It’s about how you last.

    Thanks for reading 10 IN10TIONAL Minutes with Janine! This post is public so feel free to share it.

    💥 Why This Matters

    Inside my book IN10TIONALITY, there’s a chapter called “Intent for What Makes You Stronger.”

    It’s not about hustle.It’s not about muscle.It’s about mental resilience, spiritual alignment, and emotional durability — and how your physical body plays a massive role in all three.

    “When you strengthen your body, you send a message to your soul: I’m here for the long haul.”

    That’s why fitness matters.That’s why movement matters.And that’s why I stopped trying to fit someone else’s routine — and found my own.

    🚴‍♀️ My Journey: From Forcing It to Finding Flow

    People told me to run.

    I tried.

    And I hated it.

    I hated every step, every breath, every guilt trip that came with it.

    But then… I found cycling.Then I discovered strength training.And I realized: movement doesn’t have to be a punishment — it can be permission.

    Permission to clear your mind.To build discipline.To prove to yourself that when you want to quit — you won’t.

    Those reps? They’re not just for your body.They’re rehearsals for the resistance you’ll face in real life.

    🎙️ What We Talked About in This Episode

    ✨ The mindset shift that turns exercise into a leadership tool✨ How your daily discipline in the gym mirrors your mental grit in business✨ What Christo teaches about capacity and stewardship✨ Odette’s take on alignment and emotional regulation through movement✨ Why intentional strength is one of the 10 pillars of a rewarding life

    🧠 My “MOVE” Framework for Building Intentional Strength

    You don’t need a 90-minute gym session.You need rhythm, purpose, and consistency.

    Here’s how I approach it:

    * M – Make it joyful. If you hate it, you won’t do it.

    * O – Own your rhythm. Morning workouts aren’t holy. Consistency is.

    * V – View it as mindset training. Push your limits here, expand them everywhere.

    * E – Energise yourself daily. Movement creates mental momentum.

    💣 Truth Bombs From the Episode

    “Fitness isn’t selfish. It’s foundational.”

    “Mental resilience is built in the reps no one sees.”

    “Your body is your first assignment. Steward it like your life depends on it—because it does.”

    💬 Before You Go…

    If you’ve been struggling to stay focused…Feeling stuck or sluggish in your business…Or wondering where your motivation went…

    Check in with your body.Because your breakthrough might not be waiting on another mindset tip —…it might be waiting on your movement.

    🎧 Listen to the full episode here:

    👇And if it hits you like it hit us — share it with someone building something big who needs to be reminded:

    Your body isn’t separate from your calling.It’s the vehicle for it.

    If this hit home — don’t just listen and leave.

    * And if you’re ready to turn your potential into a plan, and your goals into GRIT-fueled results — come join the next intake of the Marketing Cosmetics Program.

  • #Ep59 🏋🏽‍♀️ Why You’re Not Finishing What You Started — And How to Fix It - Fast!!

    #Ep59 🏋🏽‍♀️ Why You’re Not Finishing What You Started — And How to Fix It - Fast!!
    Jul 23 2025

    “Let me say it straight: talkers don’t change the world — finishers do.If you’re always setting goals but rarely hitting them, you might be stuck in Flaker mode.

    Today, I’m calling it out — and calling you up — to become the kind of person who doesn’t just dream it, but actually delivers it… on purpose.”

    Free Entry and Peek into my paid Sessions….

    Hey IN10TIONALIST,This is Dr. Janine Do Cabo, your growth strategist and The IN10TIONALIST — and today we’re talking about a conversation that might sting a little… but it could also shift everything for you.

    Let’s talk about the two kinds of people in every room — and in every mirror:

    The Flaker and the Finisher.

    We all start off as dreamers. We have goals, vision boards, ideas. But somewhere along the road, most people get caught in a loop of trying instead of doing, of talking instead of finishing.

    Let me break it down…

    The Flaker

    This is the person who means well. They’re full of plans, promises, and post-its.

    They:

    * Set deadlines, but never meet them.

    * Make commitments, but always have a story.

    * Fill the room with noise, but rarely with value.

    * Talk more than they take action.

    They’re the masters of overexplaining and underperforming.They say they’re “working on it” — but months go by, and nothing’s shipped, launched, or lived.

    Let me be clear: flaking isn’t a character flaw. It’s a clarity flaw. It’s the result of a life misaligned with IN10TION.

    Now, The Finisher

    The Finisher isn’t necessarily the loudest, smartest, or most gifted — they’re just the most consistent.

    They:

    * Set a goal and reverse-engineer the how.

    * Align their priorities with purpose.

    * Show up when it’s hard — not just when it’s convenient.

    * Don’t chase applause. They crave alignment.

    Finishers don’t need hype — they have habits.They don’t just have dreams — they have direction.And they finish not just because they can — but because it’s who they are.

    Thanks for reading 10 IN10TIONAL Minutes with Janine! Subscribe for free to receive new posts and support my work.

    So What’s the Difference?

    One Word: IN10TIONALITY

    IN10TIONALITY is the power that makes finishing possible — and purposeful.

    When you align your time, energy, and effort with what truly matters, the results aren’t just “done”…They’re fabulous.

    That’s what happens when the Finisher steps up with focus.

    Your IN10TIONAL Moment:

    I want you to reflect — are you spending more time explaining why it’s not done,or intentionally building the life and business that actually aligns with your vision?

    Because here’s the truth:You don’t need more goals. You need more follow-through.

    If this hit home — don’t just listen and leave.

    * Share this episode with someone you know is stuck in Flaker mode and needs a nudge.

    * Subscribe for more IN10TIONAL moments — where strategy meets soul.

    * And if you’re ready to turn your potential into a plan, and your goals into GRIT-fueled results — come join the next intake of the Marketing Cosmetics Program.

    Where we don’t just talk about strategy…We implement it. We finish it. We win with it.

    You can find the link here — and remember,You were never called to be average. You were called to finish.

    This is Dr. J — signing off as your Finisher-in-Chief.

    Stay IN10TIONAL. Stay in motion. Stay on mission.

  • 🎙️Ep5 Off Topic On Point - When Saying Yes Breaks You First

    🎙️Ep5 Off Topic On Point - When Saying Yes Breaks You First
    Jun 11 2025
    In this unapologetically raw conversation, we continue where we left off—moving between the tension between staying grounded and staying open. Last time, we challenged childhood beliefs, unlearned silent rules, and cracked open that powerful line:“Strong convictions, loosely held.”But this time… we go deeper.Because conviction is one thing. Obedience? That’s where it gets real.Today’s episode dives headfirst into the cost of obedience—especially when the outcome isn’t clear, the reward isn’t instant, and the journey feels invisible to everyone else.We ask the hard questions:* What happens when conviction calls you… but it costs you more than you expected?* How do you keep showing up when your vision doesn’t match your current reality?* Where is the line between faithful waiting and spiritual procrastination?This is about the gap—between what we know and what we see.Between obedience and outcome.Between trust and the truth we’re living right now.🧠 What We Explore in This Episode:* The unseen cost of obedience: emotional, financial, relational* What to do when clarity feels like a curse—because now you can’t unsee your vision* How to respond when obedience feels invisible or misunderstood* The lonely space of being in-between: not who you were, not yet where you're going* How to discern between divine waiting… and resistance disguised as comfort💬 Key Conversation Prompts & Questions:* “What’s one moment where obedience felt invisible—or even misunderstood?”* “Dr. J, you mentioned that obedience often has a cost. How do we hold onto purpose when the price feels personal?”* “Apostle Nicky always says the blessing is in the instruction, not the outcome. How do we live that out when nothing seems to be working?”* “There’s this weight that comes with clarity—how do we keep faith when our current season doesn’t reflect our future vision?”* “How do you know when you’re waiting in faith… versus avoiding a necessary shift?”🛑 Truth That Landed:* “Obedience is the bridge between revelation and manifestation.”* “Clarity isn’t always comforting—it’s often confronting.”* “What you’re calling ‘waiting on God’ might actually be God waiting on you.”* “Fruit follows obedience, not the other way around.”* “The gap is proof you're in motion.”👂 Why This Episode Matters:This one is for the leaders, the risk-takers, the visionaries……the ones who said yes but are still waiting on the fruit.The ones who obeyed in faith but are walking through silence.The ones who are questioning if they heard right—or if they’re just tired.This episode is your reminder:Obedience is not about optics. It’s about alignment.And alignment always precedes breakthrough.Thanks for reading 10 IN10TIONAL Minutes with Janine!

  • 📢 Off Topic on Point. The Power of Becoming – Friendship, Faith & Finding Your Voice

    📢 Off Topic on Point. The Power of Becoming – Friendship, Faith & Finding Your Voice
    May 26 2025
    In the latest episode of Off Topic, But On Point, we went deep – not by design, but because that’s what happens when truth meets trust. This week’s conversation, led by the ever-insightful Pastor Christo Pretorius, turned into a heartfelt reflection on identity, influence, and what it really means to become.Joined by Odette de Beer, Dr. Janine de Cabo (aka The Intentionalist), and her brilliant friend and co-host Pastor Christo, we explored the beautiful tension between growth and grounding. Here's a glimpse of what went down—and why it matters.Why This Podcast Is DifferentUnlike our individual shows, this space is sacred. It's real friends having real conversations—raw, unscripted, and rich with shared experience. Here, there's no need to perform or posture. It's about showing up, saying the truth, and listening deeply.As Odette put it, “This is my favourite conversation. It challenges me. Sometimes I hold back tears. But I always leave better.”The Becoming: What Shapes UsThis episode was titled The Becoming of Odette de Beer & Dr. Janine de Cabo—and for good reason. Pastor C asked questions that opened doors into our formative moments: from career-defining promotions to life-altering moves across the world.For me, my parents’ contrasting influences—my mom’s corporate precision and my dad’s entrepreneurial fire—shaped my leadership style and grounded my approach to business. A pivotal moment? Being promoted to Marketing Manager early in my career, and my mom's less-than-thrilled reaction. At the time, I didn’t get it. Now, I do. She saw the weight that title would bring. And she was right. - Dr. Janine Do CaboOdette’s story echoed a similar theme. From watching her dad pursue academic excellence to her mom’s quiet strength and resilience, her roots run deep. One defining moment came at 21, confidently declaring over dinner in Kenya, “I’m destined for greatness.” That conviction never left—despite the challenges of rebuilding a life (and business) from scratch after relocating internationally. - Odette de BeerWhat We Leave BehindOdette shared the heartbreak of leaving behind sentimental things—like her kids’ handprints in clay or her wedding album—but reminded us that the real essentials aren’t tangible. Knowledge. Grit. Relationships. Those travel with you.The hardest part of the transition? Letting go of identity. “In South Africa, I worked hard for my reputation. Here, I was a nobody.” That vulnerability gave birth to new strength. She started a women’s networking group that’s already changing lives. One woman came up after an event and said, “Your words made me feel like I belonged. I relaunched my business today because of that.”That's impact.From Overwhelm to IntentionAs we shared our struggles, a common theme emerged: the tension between where we are and where we want to be. Whether it’s yearning for greater influence or feeling the weight of time, we’re all navigating the gap.For me, that meant simplifying. Out of overwhelm, intentionality was born. I asked myself: What 10 things can I focus on to grow? I named them. I lived them. And I shared them. That framework became the heart of what I now teach.Odette’s challenge?
