    Episode 265: Opening the Doors to Coaching Men

    We're opening the doors to coaching men, and this episode is why. For years YGC has been a space for women to redesign their relationships and their lives. Today that circle gets bigger. We talk about why so many men struggle in silence, the societal script that tells them stoicism equals strength, and why the coaching industry has quietly left them out of the conversation. We're introducing our Trifecta for men: Relationship with Self, Identity, and Evolution. Not therapy. Not about tearing someone down to rebuild them. A real, structured space for men to figure out who they are and what one small action could move them forward. If you're listening on behalf of the man in your life, a son, a partner, a friend, this one gives you language for what he might be carrying and never says out loud. We cover: Why men are statistically less likely to seek helpHow identity gets tied to performance, and what happens when the ground shiftsThe gap in the coaching industry most men never saw themselves inWhat success actually looks like coaching a man through changeThe one decision every transformation starts with Follow along and share this one with a man who needs it.

    In this episode, Geo sits down with YGC co-founder Yvette Valdenegro to talk about the climb that changed everything. Yvette shares what it was really like to summit Mount Kilimanjaro's Lemosho Route, including the parts nobody warns you about: the exhaustion, the fear, and eventually an undiagnosed case of pulmonary edema she pushed through to reach the top. But this conversation isn't just about the mountain. Yvette walks Geo through the four levels of consciousness she moved through on the climb, and how that same framework shows up in the work we do with our clients every day. She talks about what it means to stop surviving and start actually living as yourself, not performing a version of yourself for everyone else.You'll hear about: What actually happens in your body and mind above 19,000 feetThe moment Yvette had to ask for help and what that taught her about controlThe four levels of consciousness, explained simplyWhy perfect peace was never something to chase, it was already there[Exciting announcement — details TBD] If you've ever felt like you're climbing toward some version of peace that's always just out of reach, this episode is for you.

    Episode 261: Summer, Slowing Down & The Truth About Rest Without Guilt

    🎙️ EPISODE 261 — Summer, Slowing Down & The Truth About Rest Without Guilt Summer has a way of making us feel like we should be doing more. More memories.More adventures.More productivity.More progress. And yet, for many women, summer arrives and brings something else entirely: exhaustion, overwhelm, and guilt for wanting to slow down. In this episode, we're having an honest conversation about rest, reflection, and why slowing down isn't something you need to earn. We explore: Why summer is not a performance seasonThe hidden guilt many women feel when they aren't constantly producingHow to recognize what is draining your energyThe importance of reflection before actionWhy information without implementation keeps us stuckHow to stop postponing the changes you already know need to happenChoosing alignment over pressure this season This episode is also a reminder that growth doesn't always come from adding more to your plate. Sometimes growth comes from paying attention. From listening. From being honest with yourself. And from finally responding to what life has already been trying to show you. Because you are not behind. You are in a season. And this summer may be inviting you to slow down long enough to hear what comes next.

    Episode 259: What is Happening with My Life Right Now? Honoring Your Capacity in This Season

    EP. 259: Honoring Your Capacity in This Season What if the healthiest thing you could do in this season… was stop expecting yourself to carry it all the same way? In this episode, we unpack what it truly means to honor your capacity instead of constantly pushing past it. From shifting priorities and changing routines to boundaries, guilt, and self-awareness, this conversation is a reminder that alignment looks different in every season of life. So many women are operating from old expectations, outdated versions of themselves, and survival mode—without ever pausing to ask:What do I actually have the capacity for right now? This episode is for the woman learning that slowing down is not falling behind, simplifying is not settling, and honoring yourself is not selfish. In This Episode, We Explore: • Understanding your current capacity without shame • Releasing unrealistic expectations and pressure• Why every season requires a different version of you • Simplifying routines, commitments, and mental load • Choosing alignment over overwhelm• Giving yourself permission to evolve guilt free Key Takeaways: Capacity changes—and that is normalBoundaries protect alignment, not just timeSimplicity creates clarity• You do not have to prove your worth through exhaustion A Quote to Remember: “You are not meant to carry every season the same way. ” If this season has been asking you to slow down, simplify, or reconnect with yourself, this conversation is your reminder to listen.
