    Episode 30: Should I stay or should I go now? Sunk Cost Fallacy and Loss Aversion: Why do we tend to stay with something maybe longer than we should? How do we decide if it really *is* time to go? Doesn't the fact that I've already devoted a lot of time, money and energy to something mean that it's worth staying?

    Episode 26: It's part of the process

    The world is full of advice about how we should do things. Frequently that becomes a recipe for beating yourself up if what works for one person doesn't work for you. We've all been there - been offered a "system" or a collection of steps that if we follow them, we'll get the results want. We try it out for ourselves, only to find that it just doesn't work for us. And we make it mean that we are somehow flawed, rather than the system being a bad fit for us. Claire suggests practical tips to actually feel better and make progress on your goals. You can let go of the pressure to fit into someone else's "solution" by acknowledging that wherever you are, it's all a part of your process. I really is okay if what works for one person doesn't work for you. #midlifelesbian #lesbianlifecoach

    Episode 25: An interview with accomplished lesbian distance runner and activist, CC Tellez

    Episode 25: An interview with accomplished lesbian distance runner and founder, organizer and coach for Philadelphia running group Lez Run, CC Tellez. CC is also the  Associate Director of LGBTQ+ Programing at Students Run Philly Style and has served on numerous boards and in volunteer leadership roles in the Philadelphia area and nationally.   Originally from La Paz Bolivia, CC’s story is one of both lifting people up through the power of running, and also addressing inequality, inequity and exclusion, especially for nonbinary and transgender runners who have not been able to participate in runs and races in a way that aligns with their gender identity. Her story is one of making the world expand and be more inclusive, rather than accepting the status quo.   I the podcast, CC tells a delightful story of her personal challenge and connection to an icon in the women’s running world: Kathrine Switzer, who in 1967 was the first registered woman to run the Boston Marathon.  Here’s a link of CC with Kathrine after her 2017 Right To Run 19K race, and you can see Claire, CC and others from their races and Saturday morning runs on Instagram and Facebook. If you would like to support LezRun with a financial contribution, contact Claire at Claire@clairebakerOK.com.   If you are a midlife lesbian, you are invited to join the private Facebook group “A Group of Our Own.” And you can follow Claire and Practical Change Coaching on these social media platforms: TikTok Instagram Facebook YouTube And at www.practicalchangecoaching.com
