And What Else?

Send us Fan Mail

This episode is aimed at a person in a certain part of their life. I know I've been there, and I'm pretty sure you will have been too - the person who says they want to make a change, has studied and researched how to make that change, talks about the change... but hasn't yet actually made the change. I'm not talking to people who have social, economic, time or any of the other pressures that mean the change is much harder to make - but to those who are feeling comfortable in their lives, would like to make the change, but have honestly got to a point where they are tired of their own shit. This episode might hit home a little, but that's where we like to go on "And What Else?"!


Today I'm breaking down:

• How your discomfort isn't quite uncomfortable enough
• Are you all talk & research but no action?
• What loose language will cost you
• The questions to ask yourself about the bridge you'll build to where you want to go
• The true worst case scenario of change

In last week's episode, we covered the topic of authenticity and how our values, what we want to grow about ourselves and how we can be honest with ourselves to ensure we aren't hitting the point of burnout. For today's episode, we're going a little deeper and discussing the layer of authenticity surrounding emotional authenticity in particular. If you ever feel like there's a disconnect between the things you say, how you behave and how you feel about things, this could be because you aren't fully doing the work on all aspects of authenticity.

Today we'll be covering:

• The link between natural overachievers and accidental leaders
• Internal conflicts between what you say, do and feel
• Why your external and internal authenticity might not match up
• Why you need to focus on personal AND professional development, not just one or the other
• What imposter syndrome might actually mean for you
• The biggest cause of inauthenticity

Today we're diving deeper into a topic I touched on in episode 3 - authenticity. It's become a bit of a buzzword recently and often we're made to feel as though if we don't share all of ourselves, we're being inauthentic, untrustworthy and fake. Does this mean that as a personal brand, we should share every moment of our lives in order for people to trust us and buy from our brand? You can listen to all of my thoughts around this topic in today's episode.

We'll be discussing: 

• The language that you use around authenticity
• Reframing the question of "how authentic am I?"
• The different filters we naturally take on day-to-day
• Honesty vs authenticity
• Truly understanding your values
• Your personal brand and the difference between you and your business
• How chasing authenticity can lead to burnout

Building on our discussion from last episode, false benefits are protective behaviours that feel good in the moment, but won't help you in the long term. The effect of these can range from inconvenient and time wasting (scrolling) to downright destructive (addictions). That's why it's so important to address these and to ask the right questions that will help you to understand why you carry out these behaviours which will enable you to move forward.

Today we'll be discussing:

• What false benefits are and why our behaviour causes them
• Why we behave in that way in the first place
• The false benefits caused by procrastination and perfectionism
• What authenticity is and isn't

The name "The Completion Coach" was inspired by my own frustrations of things that were never started, desires and dreams that people didn't get around to and things that were left unfinished. I've been coaching for over six years now, and in the beginning I found myself noticing that my clients' commitment to completion dropped off after the coaching ended. Why was this? After analysing the data, I realised that if we don't deal with the emotional side and the subconscious, my clients couldn't achieve long lasting change as this fundamental piece of coaching was missing. Today's episode dives into this emotional side of human beings with curiosity and compassion.

I'll be talking about:

• How to find what activates you
• Assessing your boundaries and who is taking advantage of them
• Self-development vs self-learning
• All or nothing behaviour
• Showing up for the bare minimum
• Why identity tags prevent us from changing our behaviour

Welcome to this first episode of the "And What Else?" podcast with me, Wendy O'Beirne, also known as the Completion Coach! In this episode, I'll be sharing why I've chosen the name "And What Else?" for this podcast, and as part of that I'll be exploring how the generalisation of deep topics in today's world affects our abilities to understand our true needs, express ourselves authentically, and pursue more of our true passions.

I'll be sharing with you:

• The problem with generalisations and how they can reduce massive topics into sound bites
• The importance of going deeper than surface-level concerns and understanding what motivates us and holds us back
• Going back to basics and thinking about whether our fundamental needs are being met
• The need to reconsider what we think of as "success"
• Why we should stop thinking things are either right or wrong and how this helps us to ask "And What Else?"
