Beyond YOUR Comfort Zone

Why are triathlons a microcosm for my life? I share the lessons I learned on the day,  and then I discuss how I apply them to my life.

A few lessons learned:

• A good thing takes time, allotting for a learning curve and choosing patience. 
• Learning how data is helpful from a curious perspective vs a judging perspective
• Confuse cause errors 
• Learning to reset - deep breath
• Finding our silver linings 
• Trusting in the process - taking your next step forward 
• Checking in - honoring our body
• Seeing how you are loved
• Letting others push us further than we would on our own

I love learning more about myself as I race, and then taking the lesson into the other areas of my life.

It is an honor to have Corinne Crabtree on the podcast today. She is the host of the top ranked podcast -Losing 100 pounds with Corinne.  In the interview we dive into the three phases of her weight loss journey, the beginner, middle, and maintenance. You will hear what truly helped her get started and how she has stuck with it for the last 15 years.

She goes on to explain how she has used the thought of "I will figure it out" in so many areas of her life including exercise and her business. 

The most amazing transformation, including her 100 weight loss, was her ability to change her self-concept. As you listen to the interview, you will see her desire and her passion to share her tools with anyone and everyone.

I share an experience where I wasn’t ok with it in the beginning. I share how within the course of 2 years I got to it is ok, and I can look back and see all the ways I changed. I can see now how it is really helping me become the person I want to be. I share some of the lesson I have learned in those 2 years. 

If you aren't ok, how do you allow yourselves to go through the hurt so you can get to ok.

As you  learn that you can’t change reality, you can get to “it is ok” a lot faster.

When you start realizing you can only do your business and not others business or God business, you start realize it helps you get to inner peace. You start accepting it and figure out ways to move forward and not stay stuck.
Basically learning to accept reality helps us learn to live with less suffering.

On the podcast this week, I discuss how important it is to get Kale or in the big picture, how to get nutrient dense food in their diet vs calorie dense food. 

Another thing we discuss is what happens when we don’t get the nutrient dense food in our diet, and we “fail”. We discuss what to do when we get to “what the heck”. What do you do next?

The last thing I share is when we think “what the heck” this nutrient dense food doesn’t taste as good. There is a reason for that. The artificial produced food is more concentrated, so you get a bigger hit of endorphins than the nutrient dense food. I dive into well being vs false pleasure with our food. 

We get a chance every few hours to make a food choice, and we are the only ones who get to decide what goes into our mouth.

Are you trying to be perfect? How is that working for you? We often think we have to be perfect to achieve our goals. 

I want to help you see all the sneaky ways “perfect” try to pull us away from becoming excellent, which is the ultimate way to reach our goals.

1- setting unrealistic goals vs setting small realistic goals 

2- comparing with others vs knowing your strengths and weaknesses 

3- eliminates celebrating vs celebrating along the way

4- burnouts vs readjusting along the way

5-starting lines seem like a brick wall vs starting and learning as you go

When perfectionism secretly creeps in we find ourselves missing out on celebrating the small victories. We begin to miss out on the fun life has to offer us on our way to becoming our best selves. 

The book Finish by Jon Acuff dives deeper into these topics.
