The Transformational Coach - Thoughts from my Sofa episodes
- Episode 18 - Passion
Be careful what you search for online! That was my mistake when researching this episode!
- What do you do for play? When do you have the most fun?
- What thrills you? What takes you out of yourself? When do you lose all sense of time?
- How could you give the world something of yourself?
- What will it take to bring more passion and enthusiasm into your life?
What is stopping you from embracing the things you love to do?
Give me a call or drop me an email ([email protected]) to find out how we can work together to release your inner passion.

Cowardly Lions Listen Up! This one's for you!
This week it's all about Courage. Have you been acting the the Wizard of Oz's Cowardly Lion when it comes to your confidence and courage?
Here's some thinking of you:

- Where in your life would being more courageous bring you greater peace?
- What's stopping you??

10 min - Episode 15 - Gremlins & Critics
In this week's episode we're looking at our overall topic of Confidence and start out with those pesky little voices in our heads that are our inner critics or gremlins.
Sometimes we just need those nasty little chit-chatters to BE QUIET and let us be our amazing selves!
So ask yourself these:
- Where are you too hard on yourself?
- What do you need a pat on the back for? (Make a list!)
- Where does your inner critic get in the way of you living your best life?
- How are you holding yourself back fro being a unique and distinctive human being?
- What support do you need so that you can feel magnificent about yourself?

13 min - Episode 14 - Happiness & Joy
Welcome to another week of thinking!
How are you doing during Lockdown?
Have you been feeling the pressure to learn something or focus on self-improvement in some way?
I have been loving getting caught up with things on Netflix (and other streaming channels) and just chilling out with some good books.
Right, this week we're thinking about happiness and joy. Are they the same thing?
I really like the explanation that Rachel Fearnley (https://www.rachelfearnley.com) wrote about in a 2015 article for Psychologies magazine (read it here: https://www.psychologies.co.uk/joy-vs-happiness). What are your thoughts?
Here are this week's questions:
- Whom do you love to spend time with and what do you love to do?
- What are you thankful for?
- What has deep meaning to you?
- What fills you with joy? (make a list and look for patterns!)
- How do you get in the way of your own happiness?
Contact me on [email protected] or via the links to my social media and websites (www.rbalimited.co.uk & www.rhonabarton.co.uk) to let me know how you're doing!
Talk to you next week!
15 min - Episode 13 - Handling Rejection
We're another week into our "Move Towards Happiness" topic and today it's all about Handling Rejection.
I had to reject my first attempt at this podcast because I didn't plug the microphone in! LOL
- What does rejection mean to you? Is it simply a sign you need to keep looking?
- How could your rejection be an opportunity to wake up and get to the next level?
- How is this rejection a symbol of your courage, determination and grit?
- How does it feel to let go of the outcome you were hoping for?
- No-one can make you feel inferior without your permission. Tell me how you are wonderful? Make a list!
Drop me a note to let me know what makes you amazing?
Like always, feel free to share this podcast with your friends and family.
Until next week!

13 min - Episode 12 - Make Your Own Luck
Hello & Welcome Lovely Listener!
Do you think we make our own luck? That's something I explore with you in this episode.
Here are today's questions:
- What do you want? What do you really, really want? Make a specific list.
- When you succeed, what is your success usually attributable to?
- What should you be on the lookout for to achieve the vision you have for your life?
- What do you need to say "Yes" and "No" to and create more space in your life for your goals? (2 lists needed here!)
- How will you recognise a good opportunity to achieve your goals or achieve them faster?
I've also spoken about the dreaded "N" word - Networking! Have no fear though, I also mention a networking group that for non-networkers. Here's the link: https://bit.ly/31xyvoO - this will take you to the pre-launch page where you can find out more information! I've signed up and I'm excited to get started!
As ever, feel free to share this podcast and spread the word or just drop me a message to let me know what you think!
See you next week!

9 min - Episode 11 - Procrastination
In today's episode, you learn a little more about my love for a deadline (and the whizzing noise it makes as it rushes past!) and my habit of putting things off! Surely I'm not the only one?
I've posed some questions for you again this week:
- What are the costs of procrastination in your life?
- When you procrastinate, you are avoiding or afraid of .... (make a list!)
- How does it feel to get difficult things done? What do you say to yourself once they're complete?
- Commit! Try asking yourself, "If I don't do it now, when WILL I do it instead?"
- How would your life be different if you stopped procrastinating and felt the rush and satisfaction of "Just Do It"?
Also, a shout out to the fabulous Jayne at https://msktherapyandsportsinjury.co.uk - she's an inspiration, a list lover and someone who doesn't let procrastination stop her!
Let me know your thoughts!

About The Transformational Coach - Thoughts from my Sofa
From the publisher's feed
The many mindful musings of a Transformational Life Coach who hasn't quite got everything figured out!
I love working with people who want to be inspired to start their own businesses and reclaim their financial freedom.
I also enjoy working with companies who find themselves with Accidental Managers - people who have been promoted but who have not necessarily been given the personal or professional development to feel 100% comfortable in their new role.
If this is you, or you know someone this description fits, get in touch and double down on your competence with confidence! 😊
