Golden Sphere Coaching Show

I am warmly welcoming you to the tenth episode of the Golden Sphere Coaching Podcast, this is your host Anda and for the next few minutes I would like to invite you to explore together a very powerful coaching tool which has helped me personally gain a broader understanding on just how happy or sad my life really is, when analysed day by day along a whole year. I would like to share this tool with you, in the hope that will also help you get this view about your own life!

Every digital picture is made up tiny individual pixels. If you were to look at each separate pixel individually, and isolate the rest of the neighbouring pixels, you would probably not gain a high enough level of information so that you can draw meaning from this single pixel. Only when we look at the combination of pixels together, we understand the message that is transmitted by the entire picture. By combining the pixels together, meaning is created at a broader scale. 

Similarly, our lives are made up of individual days, which combine into weeks and months, and usually at the end of a year some of us like to draw a line, look back at the year that passed and try to draw more meaning from it or we also try to understand better if it was a good or a bad year, judging by our own individual standards. Think of one year of your life as a digital picture made up of pixels, where each individual pixel represents a day.

If you would like to work together on an accountable digital picture of your year starting from right now, contact me and let’s start! Also, if there is any area of your life that you want to improve or if there is anything that you need support with regarding setting goals, developing plans to reach your goals, overcoming obstacles or maximising your potential in different areas of your life, I would be more than happy to help you as a Life Coach. 

Therefore, I warmly encourage you to drop a line at [email protected], and we can schedule a complimentary session to get us going!

We probably all have a job, a side hustle, a business or an activity that provides us the financial means to live our lives.  But is this really the job that we dreamed of, is this what we wanted to do ever since we were little, is this something in line with our principles and values and are we generating value by this job? 

If you answered 'no' to any of the questions before, then I would like to invite you in this episode on an imagination trip through several areas of life,  to see how should these ideally look like,  to compare them with their current state and to see what we can do about it to close the gaps! 

Listen to the episode to enter the imagination journey! 

I am warmly welcoming you to the eight episode of the Golden Sphere Coaching Podcast, in which I invite you to discover together what your current state of wellbeing!

In order to improve our lives, we first have to see where we are currently at. The more specific we are with our assessment, the easier it will be to derive goals that we want to achieve and also action plans that could help us reach our goals. 

So if I were to ask you, what is the current state of your wellbeing, what would you say? And how would you be able to determine this? 

My suggestion in this episode is to go through each aspect of our wellbeing and see how we can estimate for each one of them where we are at. Wellbeing can be defined by the satisfaction that we have in our life, which of course can be very subjective and depend on a different series of factors, from person to person, and that is why YOU are the only person that can accurately estimate this for yourself, since only YOU know what is really important to YOU. 

Wellbeing can also depend on standing behind that what we do on a day to day basis, and wether this is a job, a study, volunteering, or anything else. The activity in itself is not important, what is important is if we stand behind it and that this is an extension of the expression of who we are and what we stand for. Spending our days doing something which we believe is not in line with our being, is just precious wasted life time. Wellbeing also depends on the quality of our relations, on the quality of our self care, and on the clarity regarding our goals in life. Let’s get more specific on each of these aspects. 

Listen to the episode to get more insights on how YOU can asses your level of wellbeing today! 

I am warmly welcoming you to the seventh episode of the Golden Sphere Coaching Podcast in which I invite you to an interactive self reflective episode!

Unlike other episodes, in this edition I would like to ask you a few self reflective questions. Why? Well because moments of self reflection are like a very welcome break from our increasingly hectic life and they are an invitation for us to asses where we stand today. They are also an invitation to re-visit the things or the moments which we sometimes take for granted. So I hope that I am catching you in a good moment, in which you would be open to think about yourself and try to find honest answers in the next couple of minutes. 

Enjoy the episode!

Why would we even set LIFE GOALS  in the first place?  Let’s think of a goal as a destination or a state of being that we want to get to, it can be anything from loosing weight to wanting to change the world. Setting a goal means that we just want to change the way things are to how we envision that things should become. In order to efficiently set a goal, we need to know three things. 

First of all, we need to know where we are at. If we do not know where we start, how can we even know in which direction to change or improve something and to what extent. 

Second of all, we need to know where we want to get and we need to be crystal clear about the outcome, the more specific we are about the desired outcome, the easier it will be to craft a plan to get there. 

And third, and maybe the most important of all, we need to know WHY we want to change something. The WHY is the fuel that will drive us to pursue our goals. If we have a strong enough reason, then will we have a strong enough energy and ambition to go get it. 

Efficient goal setting  tools like SMART exist, to assist you in setting your goals as practical as possible so that you can immediately start moving towards them. 

Join me in this episode to find out more! 

This edition is dedicated to you and we will explore a use case proposed by you, in order to help you gain new insights on the matter. The question which we will explore today is from a Golden Sphere listener who would like to know how could he know if he is good enough? 

How many times have you asked yourself this question? Or can you recall a recent situation in which you were trying to prove to yourself or to others, that you are good enough? Have you ever been concerned about the fact that you might not be good enough? Good enough to be accepted, to be acknowledged, to be taken in consideration? Good enough so that other people look for your opinions and your insights? Or have you ever found yourself in situation in which you were acting in a competitive manner, just to prove that you are better than others, or better than everyone, to prove that you are the best?

Listen to the episode to gain more insights on the matter!

This is an edition that we will have once a month, so in case you found this helpful, I warmly encourage you to drop a line with your proposed topic at [email protected], and I will schedule your topic for one of the next editions.

We can't physically lash out at every person or object that irritates or annoys us; laws, social norms, and common sense place limits on how far our anger can take us.

People use a variety of both conscious and unconscious processes to deal with their angry feelings. The three main approaches are expressing, suppressing, and calming. Expressing your angry feelings in an assertive—not aggressive—manner is the healthiest way to express anger. To do this, you have to learn how to make clear what your needs are, and how to get them met, without hurting others.

In this episode we will explore 5 ways to better deal with the feeling of anger. 

Today for the "Enrich your life" Monday edition, I picked a famous self development book for you and we will discuss the key learnings throughout the episode.

Today’s nomination goes to Greg McKeow’s book about essentialism, the disciplined pursuit of less! This is an essential read for anyone who wants to regain control of their health, wellbeing and happiness, at least according to Ariana Huffington’s review. 

Therefore, I invite you for the next 10 to 15 minutes to explore this book together!

Hello everyone, 

in this edition of "Emotional Monday" we will explore different strategies to better deal with the feeling of frustration. 

In the first part we will explore the root causes and the triggers for frustration and afterwards we will pass to the solutions part. 

Especially in these times of world wide restrictions, how often are you experiencing this feeling and how well can you deal with it? Listen to this episode, to get a few extra hints that you can immediately apply. 

Here are a set of questions you can use, to help you re-asses the way in which you perceive a situation to be frustrating: 

• Are things really as I perceive them? Is there anything that I might be missing here?

•How does what happened today matter short and long term? Will it still matter in a day, a week, a year?

•Is there any way that I can express my concerns without hostility?

•Am I as interested in seeing the situation clearly or am I rather interested in being “right”?

•Am I at all interested in the other person's needs or expectations? Is there a chance that we could cooperate?

Listen to the episode to find out about more ways to deal with frustration!

What is one of the most frustrating experience that you had and how did you overcome it? Would you like to share that with me and the listeners? You can never know who it might help, your lesson learned can be a lesson learned for someone else, too. Drop a line at

[email protected]

Or is there a frustrating situation in which you find yourself now and do not seem to be able to perceive it in a different way or you cannot think of any possible solutions? Describe this shortly in an email and we could pick it for our next “Your Coaching Monday” episode, where we are solely discussing about your concrete challenges and how to overcome these.
