IT'S. ALL. DAY.

Alex's Show Notes: 

“In this episode, we’re sitting down with one of my favorite humans, Chris Page, for an incredibly raw and authentic conversation. Let’s just say…. We love a man who can admit that he cries sometimes.
 

But in all seriousness, Chris opens up about how he is currently navigating a toxic relationship and struggling to let go Something that he KNOWS no longer serves him. We talk about using Mirror Work as a tool, to heal our relationships with ourselves, and how profoundly the relationship with ourselves, and our inner child impacts relationship relationships with others that were navigating today.

What is casual life update between friends, ultimately turns into grappling with the spiritual aspects of self reflection, will learning how to embrace these very new and very scary phases of our lives.

Well, some of the things we discussed may seem “out there”, we hope to leave you all with actionable items of advice that you can begin implementing NOW, no matter where you are in your self development journey!
 

Let us know what you think!  :)”

• The reason I’m making this podcast is to share with you all that I’m not perfect. I may just be a couple steps ahead of you so if I can be that guide that helps you to the level I’m at right now then that’s what this podcast is for.
• I’m making this to share and connect with all of you and to push you to keep going even if 10 days in you found yourself going back to your old habits, today is a new day. 30 out of 60 40 out of 60 or 50 out of 60 is still WAY BETTER than 0 out of 60 and quitting completely.
• This may be your first attempt at making change, There will be lessons whether you succeed or fail so don’t forget to take notes and keep working your formula until you have the life you truly want.

• I’ve been gone for almost 3 months here’s what happened:
• I had 2 romantic relationships blow up around this time. They blew up because of me tbh and thinking I could manage both of them
• I tried to keep one of them alive but it was hurting me more than filling my cup up
• My best friends mom got diagnosed with Cancer
• My mom and her man got married and I officiated the wedding
• Soccer season ended and I had 2 injuries I had to overcome from the season
• I started my newest certification for OPEX which was 2 hours every Tuesday for 12 weeks and will take me a year to finish
• My dad’s wife had been sick for the last 2 years and she just passed away a couple weeks ago
• I let go of the relationship I tried to keep alive and that to me felt like someone in my life just died
• Health complications I’ve been dealing with all year were persistent during this time of high stress
• My business was slowly declining due to the fact that I was declining as a person
• The reason I’m making this podcast is to share my struggles with you all so that you can relate and know you’re not alone when shit gets hard
• But also made this podcast to share how looking back at these last 3 months; a lot of the pain I am going through now could’ve been avoided if I was able to forgo the immediate pleasure that most of my decisions gave me.
• The 2 relationships blowing up is really what’s taken me out for this long. I did tell both of these people I wasn’t looking for anything serious and that I would be talking to other people but the way I handled it was poor and as a result it caused me more pain and grief
• These relationships were great in their own ways but they weren’t serving me and helping me become the man I want to be or help my business because if my personal life is in turmoil, as a solopreneur that turmoil will effect my business so I have to be hyper vigialant of who I let in and if you’re out there trying to work on yourself then you need to be just as vigilant so you can avoid what I’ve been going through
• The reason I made this podcast is to share my fuckups but also to call out anyone listening who is trying to make improvements in your life and ask them “what remarkably stupid things am I doing right now that I could change, that I would be willing to change?”
• If you ask that question and really want to know the answer you’ll get some answers you don’t want to hear.
• I didn’t want to let go of this relationship, its one I’ve had over the last 3 years of my life (with me from the beginning of my own coaching business) but in order to be the guy who can lead others, make 10k months consistently, be in quality shape, and have positive habits, rituals, friendships in my life then I had to let her go and its one of the hardest things I’ve done
• I’m still hurting from it while recording and will probably still be hurting from it long after this podcast is posted but I’m making this now to share with you all that I’m choosing the harder choice now in life in the hopes that there is something better for me in the future and I urge you to do the same
• I’ve had to do this along my journey plenty of times; first it was giving up junk foods, then it was stopping drinking, then it was putting the weed down, now its let the relationship go….
• For you it might be a different vice but ask yourself is this vice getting me closer to my goal or just helping me think its okay that I’m never going to reach my targets I’ve set out?
• If your vice is only for the latter then this podcast was made for you as a challenge to stop your self destruction for 60 days and then evaluate and see if you want it back in your life or not.
• I’ve already started, now it’s your turn!

Today we sit down in person and talk with Dr. Natalie Jeffreys

Natalie is a chiropractor out of Port Orange FL where I currently live and she was introduced to me a couple months ago when I was invited to a breath work session. 

I right away knew Natalie was different, she was able to really tap into the moment and put on an incredible breath work session and that made me want to get adjusted by her next. 

Over the last 2 months Natalie has adjusted me and got me back feeling 100% for soccer and for life. Her approach is like no one else I've seen and I'm very excited to have her on today to share a little bit about her story and her approach to chiropractic care! 

There was a lot about the history of chiropractic care I didn't know about which was so fun to learn about! 

Natalie believes that with the right chiropractor you don't need tools and gadgets to adjust, if you can regulate the nervous system you barely even need to push to get an adjustment, and I have experienced this first hand. 

On the other side of this coin, when she does get your nervous system regulated she can really do some incredible things with her hands to adjust what needs to be adjusted. 

We dive into how people these days are so out of alignment with stress, technology growing, self healing through chiropractic care. 

We get into how you speak to yourself and how you let other speak to you can cause the body to knot up and become misaligned. 

And so much more! 

I hope you all enjoy the show and if you want to schedule your first intro session with Dr. Natalie you can click this link and book your first assessment!

• What the difference with tro-calm vs just smoking weed?

Today we have Catarina on the podcast! 

Catarina is someone I've known in the coaching space for a couple of years now and I've noticed the shift in her coaching approach and wanted to bring her on today to share a little bit about why she's made the switch to a more holistic health based approach. 

A lot of the reasons for this were shared in the podcast by her story when she got done competing in college for track and after her bodybuilding career she pursued post college. 

Her athletic pursuits left her gut health in a lot of trouble and none of her traditional doctors could really help her. She had to go on a journey of discovering how to heal herself with the use of holistic based approach and as a result of this she now helps other women who are going through the same thing. 

We get into topics such as: 

• What does holistic health mean?
• Why isn’t this talked about more?
• Eastern vs Western Medicine
• Internal vs External
• Gut Health
• Our experience with our own western medicine
• Toxins for women
• Why everyone needs to detox but not what they think it is - we need to support our liver (the seed of emotions)
• Nervous system regulation
• You can heal yourself
• How to maintain a holistic lifestyle vs the new ages of technology; should be adapt or stay with the old school approaches
• How do we connect to that spirit and gut?

You can follow Catarina on instagram @catty_lee 

She also has a Masterclass going over holistic based health approaches you can reach out to her about!

Since last podcast about getting unexpectedly kicked out of my roommates house I have had a couple podcasts but then went silent for a little bit.

The truth is since leaving my old place I’ve doubled my business and don’t have to pay rent so I’ve made more while saving more. 3x the income all from a situation that at the time looked detrimental to my life and my business.

I wanted to make this podcast about moments in my life that looked like something terrible was going to come of it but ended up turning out to be some of the best things that could have happened to me looking back because they forced me to grow.

If you want an extraordinary life you have to realize that a life like this comes at a cost and the cost is usually a very painful and tough price to pay. Physically, mentally, financially and spiritually.

And if you’re not willing to pay these cost then you can’t expect to live an extraordinary life.

Sometimes the cost of that life means going through hardships that shape you into the person who’s made it through such hard times and as a result has come out stronger for it.

Maybe there are some stories in your life that you think are the worst thing that’s ever happened to you but in time they were pivotal points of growth. And that’s what these stories of mine are and how they’ve shaped me.

Story #1

Getting diagnosed with Adrenal Insufficiency at 9 years old

-At the time I didn’t know much about it, I’ve only learned more as I’ve gotten older but Imagine your son is completely healthy and then 7 years into his life he starts slowing down in sports, has no energy, secretly he can’t see when he gets up too fast and all the test you are doing are showing no answers to what’s going on for 2 years until you find out he’s got an auto immune disease that isn’t curable and it’ll effect the rest of his life…

(The story you tell yourself and how you respond to adversity is what truly matters. I remember as a kid just always saying “this isn’t going to make me any different than anyone else, if I have to work harder to get to the same level as another kid because my body isn’t at 100% so be it.”)

Looking back now, that drive to not want this to be a disadvantage for me has always driven me to want to work harder than others, one major issue was throwing up and needing a lot of meds to combat that stress on the body so having this disease actually prevented me from going out and drinking til I threw up and if I didn’t have that restriction I don’t know how my live would’ve turned out.

Story #2 - College Career not working out the way I thought it would

College did not go as planned. It took me 3 years to get some of my first consistent starts for my team. I almost left twice at that point. Almost gotten a DUI and went to hospital for over drinking in my first two years.

This was some of the hardest times of my life, alone at college and the one thing I could lean on being soccer was even gone so I struggled.

This ultimately led to me finding CrossFit and then ultimately my career though.

And throughout there were so many lessons learned with regards to confidence, mental toughness, self belief, and learning to not listen to criticism to name just a few. And these lessons wouldn’t have been learned if when I went to school I just started the entire 4 years I was there without having to fight for my spot.

It ended extremely well my last season with a scholarship increase and a great run of games during my last season. But the biggest thing I got out of it was pride for not quitting even though I fucking hated it for the majority of the time I was there. I didn’t quit when the going got tough.

Story #3 - Tearing my knee last year

Last year I wanted to challenge myself by making on a team as a field player to show people that with the proper training and nutrition you can be whoever you want to be and so at my first tryout after preparing for it I get into a tackle where me and this player collides…and this collision results in 4 tears in and around my knee; and I’m out for a year..

At the time this was very tough, I had hiking plans paid for and ready to go on a week after this tryout I had to cancel. As a personal trainer I use my body to move around the gym and help others but now I can barely walk, and moving my body is one of my loves and outlets for stress and now I’m going to be stuck on a couch a whole bunch resting as this knee heals for what I thought would be a year.

But this injury turned out to be one of the best things that could’ve happened to me. I got to use stem cells for my knee and to prove to my ortho that I could comeback from  this injury without surgery. I was already learning kneesovertoes training and getting certified to help others heal their knee and I got to be patient 0 when it came to implementing these techniques and principles so I know they work and now because of my injury I can relate to my clients way more because I went through the same thing they did and they also gives them hope that they can comeback if they see me playing again.

So I turned an injury that people dub as a “career ender” into a business opportunity that is 70% of the work I do today and I wouldn’t have as much success as I do right now if it wasn’t for this injury.

I hope after hearing this podcast you can believe there is hope for you during your hard time that later on as you reflect you will see how this "terrible time" was a gift for you to grow and upgrade your life!

Talk with you all next week! 

Today's podcast is a short 7 minute episode. 

It's more of a question for you to ponder; what cycles of choices, habits, beliefs and values am I currently spinning in? 

If you're not happy with where you are and you're like me and you want to grow and level up year after year than answering these questions and bringing awareness to them is vital! 

Once you can start asking these questions you will start to see the cycles, and if you can see the cycles than you can begin to break them in order to create the new cycles that will take you to the next best version of yourself! 

I hope you enjoy today's podcast, if you don't already please subscribe for more content like this and feel free to reach out to me on IG @chrispage_coach if you have answers to these questions you want to talk through! 

-Chris Page 

In today's episode I talk about something that has been at the cornerstone of my personal growth in all areas of my life! 

Before I couldn't put words to it in the way I'm able to now looking back over the last 5-7 years of my life. 

Today's podcast is all about the power of compounding growth over a long enough period of time to achieve the results you're truly after. 

The struggle most of us face in today's day and age is that waiting for something to happen seems foreign in this instant gratification world we live in. 

Today I'm going to share a story I had with a fellow coach who was struggling with balancing her career and her soon to be first child. She was questioning whether she should even still coach or not and comparing herself to other lady coaches in the industry who had children and went straight back into work and whether that's something she truly wants or is it something that she is getting pressured into doing from society and the fitness industry. 

I shared an example of how people wanting business success at all costs is the same as someone wanting to get jacked in the gym as fast as possible so they resort to steroids but don't realize the ramifications that come with a choice like that. Much like most people don't realize the true cost of rapid business success or success in any area for that matter. 

So I talk about in this podcast the same answer I gave her which was to expand your time horizons and focus on 1% gains and recognize how much the power of compounding will get you what you want without costing you all your energy and life in your early and mid 20s. 

I hope you enjoy the podcast and if you did please follow this channel for more episodes like this and share on your social media so your friends and family can take these lessons with them as well!

Today we have Craig Coles on the show! 

Craig is a mindset and fitness coach I met at a conference in Arizona a couple months back. I heard his story at the conference and spoke with him and knew two things: 1) His energy is infectious and 2) His story is incredible! 

Craig was an athlete growing up, he was raised with a chip on his shoulder, a "F**k it" mentality that propelled him in life until he met his first battle with life....cancer. 

Craig was diagnosed with lymphoma and had a 20% chance to live. I love Craig's approach to combating the diagnoses which we speak about in the show. It really highlights his belief in the fact that no matter what it will all work out but you can't quit! 

It was during his recovery from cancer that Craig had an out of body experience that opened his eyes and his mind to a level of self awareness that hasn't gone away since! 

Craig's battles don't end there either; Craig talks about how he's been shot and how he was diagnosed with Cardio Myopathy. This ultimately led to him having to close down his facility, go through a serious depression and have to fight against his own heart to come back to alpha! 

Craig brings an energy, a clarity, a truth to how he lives his life and this is how he defines a masculine man, a true alpha, someone who can live in their truth. No matter the consequences. This is what he instils in his clients and the message he will instill with you today! 

I hope you enjoy the podcast!
