100% Awesome Podcast

The hardest battle we all face is the one inside our own heads. But most of us think it should be easier in there than it is. We think we shouldn't have to fight so hard to feel good about ourselves or positive about our lives.

But once we understand that the opposition our brain creates is there on purpose, and that nothing has gone wrong, then we can stop resisting our brain's opposition and start doing in the work that is required to overcome it.

In today's episode I'm showing you why thought work is supposed to be work and then what you can do to keep doing the work you need to do to take care of your brain and manage your thoughts, so that you can fight the good fight and get the most out of your life.

We are all capable of way more than we believe. To tap into our true potential and create new possibilities for ourselves, we have to allow ourselves to dream big and we have to know how to keep going.

Because even though we each have unlimited potential and are capable of creating anything we want in our lives, we aren't capable of it all at once. We only open new possibilities to ourselves one step and one choice at a time.

Today I'm sharing a special interview I did with my endurance coach, Mario Minnaert, who recently completed Ultraman Florida, a 3-day, 321-mile ultra-triathlon and is the perfect example of doing the impossible one step at time. We talk about how to take the first steps, challenge your identity, problem solve along the way, grow your possibility, and how to do it all with love.

Usually, I'm against any kind of self-doubt, but in this week's episode of the podcast, I'm inviting you to start doubting what you think about yourself and questioning the conclusions you've drawn about yourself.

When it comes to figuring out who we are and what we're capable of, most of us are using an incomplete data set and our conclusions are holding us back. We have to start doubting what we've decided to believe about ourselves if we are going to progress.

In today's episode I'm telling you why doubting what you currently believe about yourself is the key to creating something new, and I give you five important tips to help you question your conclusions so you can start doubting what you think about you.

The way we think about ourselves is so important because our thoughts about who we are is directly correlated to what our life looks like. Our personal identity dictates the choices and decisions we make, the actions we take on a daily basis, and those actions build our lives.

Who do you think you are?

The answer to that question is creating your life.

Everything you do is because of who you think you are.

On today's podcast, I'm offering you four identity shifts to help you change the way you think about who you are and what you're capable of. For anybody who wants to change their life or get more from themselves, it all starts with the way you think about yourself.

We have officially reached 200 episodes of the podcast! And if you've been listening to the podcast for any length of time, you've probably heard me say many times that you and your life are 100% awesome.

But how can that be when your life contains both good and bad, as much that is difficult and challenging as enjoyable and fulfilling?

And how can you be 100% awesome when you are also 100% human which means that you are both good and bad, amazing and terrible, and that you are going to make at least as many mistakes as do things right?

On today's episode of the podcast we get to hear from some of you in the audience about how the podcast has impacted your lives and I'm sharing why I think the wholeness of you and the wholeness of your human experience makes you and your life 100% awesome.

On this special bonus episode of the podcast, I'm sharing a brand new way to work with me and the three words that are the driving force behind everything I do in my business.

Whenever my brain thinks what I'm doing is too hard or too scary or when it points out my inadequacies, these three words remind me of the reason that I'm doing any of it in the first place and they help me to keep doing my work in the world.

I also invite you to think about your own contribution in the world—what you are creating for yourself or others—and the words that guide and motivate you. When you find your why and the reason you do what you do, it makes it so much easier to create the things you want even when your brain tries to stop you.

Most of us have a desire to be great, for our lives to matter, to make the most of our time here on earth. But at the very same time, we're all just trying to survive. We're full of dreams and desires for more, but also inundated with fear and self-doubt and insecurity. We all want to live our best lives but also, life is hard and we experience real suffering.

How do we navigate this experience? How do we reconcile our desires for more with the realities of just trying to get through the day?

Coaching gives us powerful tools to be able to do both of these things—to push our personal limits and handle the pain and vulnerability that comes with being a human. In today's episode, I'm sharing why I think coaching gives you everything you need to deal with the trouble of being human and get the fullest experience from your time here on earth.

Sometimes it feels like our life just exists, as it is, without any say from us and we spend most our time reacting to it. But the reality is that you are always creating your life. Even when you don't know it!

Our lives are created one decision, one choice at a time. And most of the time those choices are being made unnoticed and unexamined inside our own heads. But when you truly understand the creative power of choices, and the built-in, unchanging power you always have to make any choice, then you have the ability to alter your reality in any way you want.

In today's episode of the podcast, I'm sharing the three keys of creation and how to use them to get what you want.

What gets your attention? What are the things that your brain returns to again and again, day after day? Are the things you are giving your attention to creating the results that you want?

When we aren't paying attention to our attention, our brains can focus on things that are unproductive, distracting, and even detrimental to creating the things we really want.

Your attention is your most powerful resource for creating your life, but it the amount of attention you have is a fixed quantity. You only have so much of it to give and if you are spending your attention in ways that don't line up with your priorities, it may be time to reevaluate what's getting your attention.

In this week's episode of the podcast, we'll evaluate whether the things we give our attention to are really creating the things we want and how to shift our attention when they're not.
