Are there parts of you, physically or your personality, that you just don’t like? Maybe they are self-appointed, or other people have criticized you about them or made fun of you for them.

When you think the not-so-great parts are a problem that needs to be fixed, you create so much unnecessary pain and suffering for yourself.

In this episode, I offer new ways to you approach those not-so-amazing parts.

WHAT YOU WILL DISCOVER

The questions that we ask ourselves are most often the most powerful tools we can use in our lives. By asking the right high-quality, empowering questions, we get inspiring and creative answers.

This week, I will explain how to start asking the right questions that will give you the answers to help you live the life you crave. I will also help you take control of your thoughts by equipping you with some actionable steps to follow. 

I have created a deck of what I call Thought Starters and they are powerful questions you can ask yourself every day. When you continue to ask yourself thought-provoking questions and your brain searches for answers, you're deliberately building new ways of thinking. 

I am giving away 10 sets of Thoughts Starters to my listeners.  Post on Instagram that you listened to this incredible podcast and tag me  @core_healthcoaching and I’ll send you a deck of Thought Starters that can help you start taking full responsibility for your life and the way it turns out!

Do you have so many diet rules in your mind that you can't keep them straight?

Let's burn those old rules and create something that is manageable and doable and created by YOU.

Here are three things you NEED to remember

1. The food isn't why you gained weight, it's your reason for eating it

2. All foods are approved. 

3. Make it simple. 

When we let go of apps and hacks and calorie counting, we can focus on what's important. 

Listen to the podcast and find some common sense rules you can do any time and take anywhere to lose weight.

Drop the drama and drop the weight.

In today's podcast we break down the reasons you find yourself eating at 8pm witching hour

When you're eating all the things in the evening, that should be a bull horn of a signal that you've got work to do about how you're thinking about yourself and your life throughout the day. 

This episode helps you flip the script and changes the "I have to's"  so you can be proud of yourself at the end of each day and make choices that are in alignment with your goals.

Listen in and I'll explain why it's happening and how to solve for it.

Too often, we get stuck in consumption. We consume massive amounts of information on a daily basis. But all that consumption does not lead to achieving our goals.  I love learning! It's essential to growth. And while this is action, it is not Dynamic action. Dynamic action can be hard, but it's the only way to reach our goals.

In this episode, we talk about dynamic action and how to commit to continuing to take action until we reach our desired result. Discover that obstacles in our journey, do not mean that we are doing anything wrong, or that we have failed, but that we must keep going, now armed with the knowledge of what doesn’t work. Get comfortable failing...because when you are failing, you are doing it right!

Your beliefs create your results. If you truly believe that you can do something, you will do it. If you don't believe you can do something, you absolutely won't do it. That's just the way it works. I'm not simplifying anything. That's just the truth.

You have a thought and you know it doesn’t serve you.  In fact. it’s stopping you or slowing you down from achieving your goal. You know you have to believe something different, but all your brain comes up with is,  “I don’t know what to think”?

But that’s okay. Brains like to be efficient, and coming up with new thoughts requires them to expend mental energy, so of course, they will provide a little resistance.

But despite your brain’s protests, it actually is capable of coming up with new thoughts if you learn not to take “I don’t know” for an answer.

That’s why a thought ladder is a great tool for getting your brain to generate new and different thoughts that you can learn to think

A thought ladder is how we go from thinking one thought to thinking something new. It creates the pathway for you to achieve your goals.

A big part of what I teach is that our thoughts are creating all of the results in our lives, our thoughts are the thing that we have control over that impacts us more than anything else. Sometimes our thoughts get in the way of achieving our goals. Today, I'll teach you why you may believe your thought is a fact, how to give it some space and believe that it's possible that it could be fiction and how to create a new thought that will put you on the right path to living the life you crave.

Episode 2 is about the thought, "What if I fail?".  We want to learn to become aware of how often we say this ourselves and take action from that place.  We want to create awareness and then give equal space to its opposite  -  "What if I succeed?" If we go through life only considering options like, If it doesn't work, if I fail. if this bombs, if I let myself down again, or I can't get this wrong again, then you are setting yourself up for a very scared and miserable life on top of never achieving your goals.

As a health and life coach, I talk all the time about the fact that life is 50/50.

2021 has been a year of wins and losses,  joy and pain, calm and chaos, holding on tight and letting go.

It has been a year of you kicking butt and it is time to CELEBRATE it all!  You deserve to relish in the delight of all that you have accomplished and remember how amazing you are. Let's take the time to make a list and be our biggest cheerleader!

Listen to the Intro to my new Podcast Hungry for Health where we will clean up our thinking about ourselves and our ability to live the life we crave!
