Play to Win
Go ahead… fail! And fail like a champ! Try it. Don’t take the results personally, and figure it out. The more willing you are to fail, the more likely you are to achieve your “impossible goal.” We’re going new places in this episode, exploring the emotional intelligence skill of self-actualization. Lots of ahas to take in, to help you manage the mindset around failure. And of course … a story that’ll bring it all together.
Just rollin’ on by the cheese shop for the win! In this episode, we’re talking about taking the kind of approach to our goals that kicks obstacles to the curb. It’s about being connected, making decisions, and holding to them. Despite the craving, it’s about commitment and taking action. We share a couple of fun stories … and a totally cheesy example to illustrate our point.
Shout out to James Clear and his book Atomic Habits (and members of our Inner Circle) for inspiring this week’s episode. We’re talking about identity-based habits, the skills, and the mindset needed to achieve what we really want. We promise it’ll be enlightening. If you’ve already scrapped this year’s resolution, listen in and you’ll probably learn why.
What does the Ab Dolly have to do with Self-Actualization? You’ll see. It’s time to grow and strive. So, this week, we’re talking about how fulfillment means different things for different people. Yep… we’re all over the place. You’ll hear about what goal setting looks like for us personally, and we’ll give you some emotional intelligence snacks to nibble on… like being able to recognize the emotions tied to your goals (because that’s what they’re all about).
Holy cow, it’s 2022! New year, new you? Ugh, that sounds sooo cliché. Even more cliché are “resolutions” (got some?). Instead, in this episode, we’re talking about setting goals and the emotional intelligence skill of self-actualization. When we look at goals, we need to separate the “should” from the “wants.” As a coach, what questions are you asking yourself and your clients? We’ve got some good ones. Listen up.
Let’s wrap this up! Before we close the door on 2021, we’re asking some key questions for reflection on the year that was. Play along, Coach. In this episode, we’re talking about our lessons learned as the pandemic stuck around and impacted everyone’s lives. There’s some big insight wrapped up in here. And yes, we confirmed we like Zoom (it’s great), but in-person (real people!) is better.
Feeling a little tense with all the expectations around the holidays and the end of the year? Let’s put the focus where it should be and watch what happens to your stress. In this episode, we’re talking about honoring our values, traditions, and maybe flipping the script on those situations which tend to make us tumble down holiday stress mountain. Hint: It’s all about perspective and thinking about why you’re really making the cookies.
Yep. It’s your thoughts. That crap swirling around in your head is what’s dictating your stress level. Even though you really want to blame the thing, the person, the timing… it’s not the situation at fault. In this episode, we’re showing you what YOU can control. We’re connecting the emotional intelligence skill of stress tolerance with what you’re thinking so you can improve your relationship with stress.
Holidays … they always bring out our best, right? Family, friends, food, and lots of plans … They can make a hella-good time or a whole big ball of angst. How do you navigate the waters? In this episode, we’re talking about the emotional skill needed to surf the waves of stress instead of avoiding them altogether. Hang ten, Coach. You got this.
P.S. Thank you, Kenya!
