43 - Trust Your Body

Let's talk about how necessary it is to listen to and trust our bodies. Growing up, I was often told by those close to me and who dearly loved me that I couldn't trust my body because it would lie to me or they understood the situation or life better than I did. This created a disconnect between my brain and body where I would avoid the signals everything below my neck was trying to send to me in order to help me survive and avoid people who didn't have the best of intentions for me. Have you ever experienced this? Let's look at how trustworthy our bodies actually are.

42 - What Is Normal?

Today let's talk about normal, or how normal isn't really much of anything in our lives and society. Who defines what's normal? It's often someone other than you. Is your normal wrong? It absolutely can be. With the people I work with, I often help them discover how harmful their normal is so they can break it down and construct a new, healthier normal.

41 - Hero Study: Taylor Swift with Kai Faith

Let's talk about a modern hero: Taylor Swift. Instead of trying to research all of this on my own and bumble my way through, I did the heroic endeavor of admitting I'm not qualified to talk about this individual and bring someone else in who could enlighten me of the work and personality of Taylor Swift. After reconnecting with my friend, Kai Faith agreed to come on and share their experience of Taylor Swift and how she impacted their life.

40 - You Don't Have To Be Great To Start

Let's talk about one of the quotes that has helped me take steps toward my life goals. It's a quote from Zig Ziglar: You don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great. Wow! I want that to sink in a little bit. Really hits me in the parts that want to do things perfectly. How about you?

39 - It's Normal to Question

Let's talk about asking questions and how normal it is to do so, yet many times our questions aren't treated with the proper respect that they should. I've been there many times before. I still ascribe to the belief that there is no such thing as a dumb question if you are genuinely curious and sincere in asking a question. It's how we learn about the world around us.

38 - Learn from Failures

Let's talk about learning opportunities. Not failures; learning opportunities. In a recent trip to Florida with some other coaches, I had a humbling experience facilitating a psychodrama in a group of other coaches. In this experience, I had a revelation on what I perceived as failures due to my perfectionist thinking at the time. Often times what we perceive as failures are more lessons on how we can grow and evolve as a person. When they become failures if when we fail to learn from them.

37 - Hero Study: Rocky Balboa

Let's talk about another hero. This month it's Rocky Balboa. I listened to music from the Rocky franchise whenever I worked out in high school, but it's not just the music that makes these movies memorable. It's the character of Rocky Balboa. He's another everyman character that most people can relate to who overcomes incredible obstacles in his life to reach the heights he does, only to fall from those heights and climb them again. Let's take a closer look at what makes this character so memorable and heroic.

36 - Healthy Harmonious Passions

Let's talk about healthy harmonious passions. Do you have any activities that you enjoy that you feel guilty participating in? Maybe you even call them guilty pleasures. What if these passions and activities were actually healthy for you to do? Today I talk about the difference between harmonious passions and obsessive passions, how we can apply this to our daily lives to improve our wellbeing, and how to notice when a healthy passion drifts into unhealth.

35 - Feed the Right Wolf

Let's talk about what's credited as a Cherokee parable. It's something I heard years ago and I love this story of what is going on in every one of us, that there are two forces within us and the one that's going to win is the one that we focus on, or the one that we feed. What a powerful message! We have more control over what happens in our lives than we give ourselves credit for.

34 -Adjust Your Expectations

Let's talk about expectations. Ever heard the saying that expectations are disappointments waiting to happen? I did years ago. The trick is to not keep expectations a secret or not expect anything, it's adjusting them so they are healthy and realistic. In my experience, I've had expectations that could fly to the moon and back and all I got in return was an outcome of a little hop. What can we do to change these expectations? Listen in for some ideas!
