MMany years ago, I had a discussion with my coach which started out with me bitching and complaining about how unhappy I had been in my life lately. After working through a handful of things, I became SUPER clear that my day in and day out life wasn’t reflective of the things I knew brought me joy and happiness. I wasn’t taking care of my health, wasn’t meditating, wasn’t connecting with like-minded spirits, wasn’t involved in creative projects… so NO WONDER I had hit a rough patch!

Was it that I didn’t know what would helpΒ me feel better? Nope. That was just the prob. I totally knew what lit me up, I was just not doing any of those things. I was involved in full-on self-sabotage and I had NO idea I was even doing it!

Perhaps you can relate? Maybe you want to embark on a new career, but instead of researching, you zone out on some rando’s vacation pics on Facebook. Or maybe you want to get healthier, but you continue to hang out with people who make it #supesΒ challenging to go for the kale over the burger. If you’re like most people, chances are you consistently get in your own way and have perpetual non-cohesiveness between what you SAY you want and what you actually DO.

In this episode, I untangle what-the-hell self-sabotage even is, why we do it (even without knowing it), and exactly what you can do about it (like, today!). Be sure to grab your cheatsheet [points to yellow button above] and get ready to make some shit happen.

This pod explores:

  • How our fear is directly related to our self-sabotaging behavior and the question that will get you to the root of your fear
  • The three main areas of your life you need to examine and alter to seriously set yourself up for success
  • How to figure out a game plan for the things you need to keep, stop, and start in your daily routine

EEver wonder why having difficult conversations causes soooo much anxiety, often leaving you tongue-tied, frustrated with how you’re getting your point across, and down-right bummed-the-fuck-out? It can be super stressful to approach a sticky topic with someone in your life, especially if you are anticipating a less than enthusiastic response. Believe it or not, there are actually a handful of things you can totally shift in your approach in order to get your message across in a MUCH more effective way. You know, without throwing your husband’s shoes at him.

This episode targets 6 steps you can easily employ to feel much more powerful when you tell your mother-in-law to stop trying to parent your kids. Or whatever other challenging topic you need to address. You’ll learn the most effective way to communicate your needs (and in turn get what you want) without feeling like a big ol’ asshole.

This pod explores:

  • What you need to do BEFORE you have a tough conversation in order to set yourself up for success
  • How to begin a conversation in such a way that the other party is totally willing to hear you out
  • How to get really clear on what you’re asking for or requesting
  • How to own your shit and feel good about what you’re expressing, even if the other person isn’t diggin’ it

IIf it’s not your kids who need something from you, then it’s your boss. If it’s not your boss, then it’s your partner. If it’s not your partner, it’s your neighbor… or your sister or bestie or whoever else. And here you are in a cycle of being a yes-man/woman, constantly putting everyone in front of yourself and doing, doing, doing for everyone else, leaving you empty AF. Not to mention exhausted. And HELLO, Irritability!

If you’ve found yourself in this cycle, let me just say that you are soooo not alone. Our society is constantly telling us that we need to do and be everything for everyone and that faulty cycle is damn-near always a recipe for burnout, exhaustion, and overall unhappiness.

But, help is on the way. In this episode, I cover off six specific tactics you can use to start making yourself important again. And, don’t worry, you’re not going to all of a sudden β€œlet everyone down” and be wracked with guilt. Have a listen and learn simple steps you can take TODAY to start making yourself a priority and, spoiler alert, you’ll actually be a way better person/sibling/parent/colleague/friend because of it.

This pod explores:

  • How your perspective around self-care may be costing you your happiness
  • How to use your voice in small ways that will dramatically increase your self-worth
  • One of my favorite tools for speaking up without β€œopening a can of worms”
  • Your number one source of support that you are likely overlooking

SSometimes communicating with your partner can feel like you’re trying to solve a Rubik’s cube with your feet… and with your eyes closed. And even though you feel like you are using all of the words and explaining yourself over and over and over, it seems like you are even farther away from solving this intricate puzzle. And, now somehow your partner is pissed at YOU. Wait, what? How did we get here?

This cycle is unbelievably common because, um, where exactly are we supposed to learn how to communicate effectively? School? Mom and Dad? Hell, no. Media? Uh, nope. Your last relationship? Probably not. So, cut yourself some slack and be compassionate. The great news is that EFFECTIVELY communicating with your partner isn’t that complicated and you can make huge changes in your relationship dynamic just from making a few subtle shifts.

If you tuned in last week, you heard me sound off on some of the most common ways we try to get through to our partner which often ends in nothing but frustration, freak-outs, and fuming. This week, I’m covering off five things you can do that will drastically change your ability get your message across to your partner.

This pod explores:

    • How to figure out what you role in the matter may be (even if you would rather make it his/her fault)
    • The one essential piece of communication you’re probably neglecting every single time you chat with your partner
    • How to present your β€œside” of the sitch to your partner in a way they can actually hear you
    • What to do if the two of you start raising your voices and get all heated

WWhen you are at odds with your partner, it’s highly likely that the two of you go over and over the exact same topic and get a shit-ton of NOWHERE. Perhaps you are discussing if the kids should go to public or private school or how much is reasonable to spend on new fencing for the yard or who’s responsible for taking the dog to the vet. Each of you have a strong opinion, yet it seems like you both aren’t making any headway with the other person.

Why does this happen? Like, over and over. I’ll tell you why: Because most of the time, we’re more concerned with being β€œright” than we are concerned about really, truly understanding our partner. But, they’re being so unreasonable! Um, yeah. So are you.

This episode is the first of a two part series which addresses communicating effectively with your partner. In this episode, we cover off the most common (and wildly unsuccessful) communication tactics that many couples employ to get their points across. This lesson is all about examining what hasn’t been working and calling it out so you can learn aaaall the effective tools next week. #yourewelcome

This pod explores:

  • How your lack of communication may be taking years off your life (Totally serious)
  • How your attachment to being β€œright” doesn’t allow your partner to hear you. Like, EVER.
  • When you should absolutely NOT try to have a serious convo with your partner
  • Two words you must eliminate if you want to start getting your point across
