Every single one of us have the choice to feel happier on a daily basis. This is not about feeling happier 100% of the time or experiencing a big shift. This is about choosing to make little and seemingly mundane things we do more enjoyable by shifting our perspective or actively finding ways to have more fun every day.

We're always chasing a feeling. And growing our awareness of what feeling it is that we are chasing, will help us to understand and justify our actions and also behave more purposefully than just coasting, unaware, throughout our day… and consequently our lives.
Next line in this episode you'll learn:

• The role dopamine plays and why the different ways dopamine spikes is important for our overall wellbeing
• Why identifying what we're feeling in a given moment can be challenging and takes practice
• Questions to ask yourself to see whether you're ready to have more fun, and where you can bring more play into your day

Would you believe me if I told you that everything you believe isn't true? Would you fear the thought? Or would you be empowered by the thought?

One of the best things about working with a certified coach is that the beliefs you have that guide you through your life are challenged. Every coaching client experiences the Big Shift. It’s the moment when you decide a belief you’ve had for a long time is no longer true for you, and this change in belief sets you free. Often the beliefs that we hold, guiding our behaviours and our emotions, are beliefs we've been ingrained with since we were children. They no longer serve us in adulthood and things stop working as we want them to. They're beliefs we've never stopped to question to make they serve us and to make a conscious choice as to whether we want to believe that, or not. 

Your empowerment comes from your next decision. And when you're clear on the beliefs you have that do or don't serve you, you can make decisions faster and take action to get to where you want to be. The necessity of working with a coach, is that you can bring these beliefs to light faster and have support as you question them, interpret them and choose to discard them to move forward. Your coach will be there with you every step of the way as you discover what beliefs you want to have, and how those beliefs determine who you want to be.

A recent experience with loss allowed me to feel immense discomfort that I couldn't run from. Feelings of vulnerability and sadness that made me feel sick to my stomach. We've all experienced loss. And most of us feel discomfort of some kind on a daily basis. It comes in various degrees, but it's there.

We can choose to numb those feelings. There are many ways to do that, but when it comes to loss or grief, the options are limited, because no amount of skirting around the discomfort will keep it at bay for long. At some point, we will have to sit in the discomfort, allow it to be there and process it somehow. 

There are no lessons in this episode. Just a girl, telling you her story with the hope that it reminds you you’re not alone.

The pain of staying the same has to be greater than the pain of change. Where are you experiencing pain right now? How much focus is that pain taking out of your each and every day? Expanding our comfort zones is the road to personal growth. And by withstanding discomfort and persisting anyway we learn things about ourselves and discover things within ourselves that we didn't know were available to us. When we remain in our comfort zone we become unaware of our possibilities and our ability to achieve our dreams.

Expanding our comfort zone can look very different depending on the pain we're experiencing. When did you last expand your comfort zone? What can you be doing differently to be moving forward and not be living a life dictated by fear or discomfort that often arises from staying in your comfort zone for too long?

 You'll discover:

• The neuroscience behind expanding our comfort zone and why change is hard
• Why finding an emotion that gives us fire can get us moving in the right direction
• Why most of us think it’s just ‘life’ and don't recognise subdued discomfort as a comfort zone / growth opportunity

Bonus content for coaches
This episode contains bonus material for coaches working with clients on expanding their comfort zones.

The stories we tell ourselves have a monumental impact on the results we get in our lives. Whether that's financial, relationships, happyness, or other ways you may personally define success, the story you tell yourself matters. Because the story we tell ourselves affects us on a subconscious and an emotional level which is what we omit to the world, and in turn what we get back. 

The accuracy of the story is of secondary importance than how that story makes us feel. In this episode we discussed emotional bandwidth, emotional intelligence, and the steps to understand the intricacies in the different emotions you experience and what story you have around them. From there we can begin to rework the stories we tell ourselves to free us up emotionally and get better results.

The concept of emotional maturity has been increasingly relevant in my life, particularly as a mother raising two young children. Balancing the demands of parenting has highlighted moments when my inner child surfaces in response to my children's behaviour. Transitioning to a leadership role in business, the topic of emotional maturity takes a different form. As a leader, projecting professionalism often requires suppressing my emotional responses and maintaining a composed demeanor.  Embracing emotional maturity requires mindfulness, allowing us to respond thoughtfully instead of impulsively, thereby harnessing the strength of emotions for positive outcomes. Emotional maturity is a vital skill for navigating the complexities of relationships we experience in all areas of our lives.

What motivates you? Are you someone who seeks validation from others? And relies on things outside of yourself to feel good about what you're doing, decisions you’re making and things you're achieving? This episode we discuss intrinsic end extrinsic motivation, what drives our behaviour and how we can use whatever motivational strategy we have to help us, instead of hinder us.  To use what drives us, in ways that helps to put us in a state of being happier, to achieve more, and to feel better.

In Episode 51, Rhiannon discusses how you give and receive feedback, and how to establish a solid foundation on which to exchange feedback honestly.

We discuss who should give you feedback, and why; when you should ask for it; and for what purpose.  What are you looking for?  We also discuss the need for boundaries and how you can work out what you need from a relationship to feel balanced and fulfilling, and what you are not willing to accept.

"Whether you think you can, or think you can't, you're right." - Henry Ford.  We don't know what we don't know. And what we think having or achieving will give us at the outset, can ultimately lead to us feeling disappointed. On the flip side, the things in life we're forced to fight for, are the things worth having. But how do we know?

Navigating the road to goal attainment is a personal and tricky road. When we can’t see around that next corner but that’s where we’re travelling at full speed, what can appear may surprise and derail us (and often does!).  How we deal with the emotional highs and lows as we undertake our quest for what we want is so strongly linked to our ‘why'. Our purpose.  Therefore knowing our purpose and the impact we expect from having the 'thing' is the reason we fight. And more often than not, that impact is self-fulfilment, a deeper connection with ourselves, or with others.  Nothing more.
