You don’t want to miss this one! Join us for this passionate and spirited discussion about the perils of positive thinking. What do you do when things are hard? As coaches in our profession, it can often be about ‘looking at the bright side’ and ‘the power of positive thinking’. Today we talk about the bypassing of negative emotions that goes on in the world and a case against positive thinking. Bad thoughts get a bad rap…but is it their fault? This might be our most interesting and stimulating conversation to date.

Join us this week while we discuss the balance of boundaries and finding that goldilocks-like sweet spot between too many vs not enough. We will break down what boundaries can look like and offer examples of extremes of too many or too little and how they impact our daily lives. As with all episodes our goal is perspective not prescriptive.

Welcome to a continuation of last week’s episode where we take difficult conversations further by exploring the difference between ‘Agreements’ and ‘Expectations’.

We dive into how they impact relationships, communication, and our experience within the world around us. They are often the source of difficult conversations and a clear understanding of their nature. Notice how they allow us to navigate talks with more clarity and create stronger outcomes.

Having uncomfortable and difficult conversations is …well….difficult and uncomfortable. Sometimes these conversations find us. Sometimes we find them. We have all had to engage in them either as the instigator or the receiver. In today's episode, we discuss what comes up during these experiences and how we can grow through them and create outcomes that serve all parties. How can we be both understood and understanding?

This is part 1 of 2. Part 2 will drop next week!

You are the sum of the people you spend the most time with. They are often a reflection of who you are and how big you get to live.

Join us in conversation as we recount how people have changed our lives over time and what we have learned in different seasons of life and what roles our tribes play.

Emotions are here to stay and they get many labels both good and bad. Our culture often dictates what is acceptable in terms of how we express them and when we express them.

In this episode, we unpack what this culture calls ‘negative emotions’ and how they have tremendous power to serve us and heal us just as much if not more than what gets labeled as ‘positive’ emotions.

Join us while we explore the giving of permission to feel all of our emotions and honor what each has to offer without judgment.

Have you been holding on too tightly?   The more tightly we try to control things the more stressed and anxious we become.  When we can loosen our grip we can find more joy and ease and wellbeing. Joins us while we find a sense of direction and connection in all the unlikely places of perfectionism and comparison and expectations in a world that sometimes causes us to ‘white knuckle’ our way through the day.

If you are on someone else’s expected journey for you, you are not on YOUR path. In this episode, we explore how your path is YOUR path and you are exactly where you need to be. Sometimes our paths overlap or travel alongside those of others. It’s time to take back our own authenticity to walk on our own path… in our own time; without comparison or judgment.

Listen and remember with us, how to let go of what does not serve you and embrace your own power. We can be the example or we can be the warning…there is wisdom and healing in both. It’s time to let go of comparison and live free of the expectations of others.

There are so many things going on in the world that are ’stealing normal’. It may be more important now than ever to ask ourselves: What is normal anyway? What do we want to keep? What needs to go? How can I cultivate an experience that most represents the life I want to live? In this episode, we open the door to these questions and the idea of ‘micro’normals and how there are gifts in the chaos and uncertainty if only we are willing to explore the edges.

In this jam packed episode we explore our edges and the concept of ‘balance’. What it is, what it is not, and permission to carve your own path. Who says you can’t have your cake and eat it too?

We are here to help you find your new ‘normal’ and create harmony between being a human ‘doing’ and a human ‘being’.
