I have been hearing a lot of people complaining about being single lately and approaching their relationship status as some kind of disorder that needs to be treated. I observe so many single people, especially the ladies out there, consistently working on themselves to find their “soulmate.” In today’s Coaches Corner I encourage you to be grateful for whatever your relationship status is – single, dating, divorced, engaged, married or it’s complicated – and embrace it because there is tremendous growth, love and even FUN that comes with each one. I also share some of the perks I have found from being single. I also share about a new program my husband, Stefanos, and I are facilitating for single women who are ready to call in a relationship.  It is called “Be the Queen” and you can learn more about it www.christinehassler.com/bethequeen.

CC: Drama Free with Nedra Tawwab

This coaching call is about breaking habitual patterns that are no longer needed. Today’s caller, Jenny, is having completely different reactions to different situations. She asks for guidance on how to be consistent in all areas of her life and change her attachment style. Christine discovers that it is not so much about her attachment styles but about the story she tells herself in different situations.   [For show notes, go here: Christinehassler.com/episode447].   For those of us who experienced a trauma, or when the worst happened or we got in trouble for something, a neural pathway in our minds created a belief that expecting something bad to happen at any moment prepares us for future traumas and the accompanying shock. The shock is what makes trauma stay in our bodies because when we think everything’s fine, and something happens, our system is surprised. It becomes an imprint in our psyche, subconscious, emotional body, and our nervous system. Neural nets create unconscious patterns. When we are triggered we are hijacked by our subconscious.   As we grow and develop we have to update our survival strategies. So many of our survival strategies were formed when we were young. They are outdated. We have updated almost every other tool we use in our lives, yet we haven’t updated our survival strategies. When you have a habitual reaction to something, interrupt the pattern.   If you have a situation where you are bracing, expecting the worst, or getting nervous, do whatever it takes to regulate your nervous system. Take deep breaths and pause to break the habit.   Consider/Ask Yourself:   Do you feel like you’re a different person in different situations?   Are your reactions sometimes much bigger than a situation warrants?   Do you often prepare yourself for the worst even though usually the worst doesn’t happen?   As a kid, was there a part of you that felt like you were in trouble, and that you didn’t get things right?     Jenny’s Question: Jenny would like guidance about why her reactions are different in different situations.   Jenny’s Key Insights and Ahas:   She feels she reacts differently to things at work, in relationships, and when with friends and family.   Her relationship with her parents has changed since childhood.   She often gets anxious at work and feels that she will be in trouble.   She remembers getting in trouble with her father when she didn’t do something right.   She wants validation and love from her father.   She doesn’t feel good enough at work.     How to Get Over It and On With It:   When triggered, regulate her system by putting a hand on her heart and her belly and saying “I’m not in trouble. I didn’t do anything wrong.”   Where is she telling herself she isn’t enough?   Give herself compassion and commitment. Don’t give up!     Takeaway:   When you have a habitual reaction to something, interrupt the pattern and update your survival strategy.     Sponsor: Air Doctor — is an air filter and air purifier that creates the healthiest environment in your home.

CC: The Autoimmune Cure with Dr. Sara Gottfried

This coaching call is about giving ourselves the love we deserve. Today’s caller, Nicole, is struggling to give the love and acceptance she gives to her child, to herself. She feels something is missing in her life because she didn’t receive love from her parents. Christine offers guidance on how she can change her story and start loving herself.   [For show notes, go here: Christinehassler.com/episode446].   Is it possible to give ourselves unconditional love 100% of the time? Is it possible to be loving to ourselves most of the time and catch ourselves when we are not? When we don't get the love we want, or need from our parents we can flip into the victim archetype easily. It is the subconscious way we try to get love for ourselves.   The challenge with loving ourselves the way we love other people is so pervasive. There is an epidemic of people who don't feel that they are enough in some way. Whether the feeling came from inside our childhood home or outside of it, it reinforced that limiting belief.   Love is our essence. It's naturally who we all are. But we move out of love and more into fear and judgment as we age. A practice we can do to be unconditionally loving to ourselves is to keep trying and keep showing up for ourselves. When we notice that we're not being loving to ourselves, when we're in judgment, fear, criticism, or shame, we can acknowledge it and bring ourselves back to love.   Press your hand on your heart and say “I am loved.” Press your hand on your belly and say “I am safe.“   Are you interested in meeting Christine at a live event in Austin? Go to ChristineHassler.com/LiveEvent answer a few questions and offer feedback about your interest in attending. The event will be introvert AND extrovert friendly.   Consider/Ask Yourself:   Did you feel unconditionally loved as a child, and if you didn't, are you sad and angry about it?   Did you find it hard to give yourself the love you so easily give others, especially a child or a partner?   Do you struggle with being kind to yourself?   Do you wish that you could have had the childhood that other children have or that your children have?     Nicole’s Question: Nicole is struggling to give the love and acceptance she gives to her child, to herself.   Nicole’s Key Insights and Ahas:   Her son is autistic.   She gives her son an abundance of love and affection.   She believes her son chose her.   She feels sad.   She was not given unconditional love as a child.   She feels anger toward her parents for the love she didn’t get.   She feels there is a big missing piece in her life.   She has worked hard to not be a people pleaser and not to seek validation from others.   She shares her mother’s love for nature with her son.   She wants to nurture a spiritual relationship with her parents.     How to Get Over It and On With It:   Grieve and release feelings of rage or sadness.   Embrace the love she is getting.   Take the opportunity to parent herself as she parents her child.   Feel gratitude in place of sadness.   Step out of victim and into integration and application.     Resources: Christine Hassler — Take a Coaching Assessment Christine Hassler Podcasts Including Coaches Corner Christine on Facebook  Expectation Hangover, by Christine Hassler @ChristinHassler on Twitter @ChristineHassler on Instagram @SacredUnionCouples on Instagram Assist@ChristineHassler.com Jill@ChristineHassler.com — For information on any of my services Get on the Waitlist to be coached on the show.
