    76. Soulful Straight Talk: Stop Waiting, Start Living

    76. Soulful Straight Talk: Stop Waiting, Start Living

    I've been trying something new. When a theme keeps popping up in my work that I want to share with you, I am doing this thing called Soulful Straight Talk. This is where I talk straight up with you - but with a big dose of compassion.

    Today, we are about exploring the waiting game we all play. We hold back. We don't do what our soul has been trying to get us to do because of fear. Well, today is about stop waiting and start living.

    Come join me.

    74. Soulful Straight Talk: Why You Are Weary & What You Can Do About it

    74. Soulful Straight Talk: Why You Are Weary & What You Can Do About it

    I'm starting something new. I take the themes (challenges, issues, energies) that are showing up - in coaching and therapy with clients, in conversations, and in the world - and talking straight up about how you can clear out that old energy or habit, make soulful shifts, and lead a life you deeply love.

    Today, we are exploring why you are weary, stuck, overwhelmed, numbing out -- and I'm talking straight up about why and share several practices that you can start using today to make a shift.

    We go into two reasons why you are weary and I cover the "I can't" excuses, all or nothing thinking, the power of micro, what to minimize and maximize, putting yourself first, "nope," the givens, and trade-offs.

I’m Delighted!

I’m delighted to write this review. See how I did that…delight is all around us and at times it may be overshadowed by our own worse critic…ourselves. I’m one of the lucky ones that gets to work with Lisa as my coach. I found her one evening when I was searching for ways to love myself while still meeting other people’s needs. I was mistaken in my approach and didn’t know this until Lisa helped me to have self compassion. I learned very quickly what self compassion meant, what I had a hard time doing was practicing it. Now, as a result of this podcast, Lisa can accompany me anytime I want. I see her face/podcast across my Apple play every time I enter my car and it is an instant reminder to take a deep breath, smile, and settle into myself.

If you haven’t listened yet, please consider doing so. Her messages often make you think. Her thoughts and sentiments, while not in your face, gently guide and lead you to consider other ways to self love and therefore love others.

Thank you Lisa for all the ways you gift compassion and delight to all those that are aware of you.

Sound advice

I like to listen to Lisa’s podcast when I’m driving for an hour or so by myself. She is interesting. She gently gives her perspective. She bases her work in scientifically derived evidence. I know I will learn from her. I know there is a higher power and we are in agreement on this. I’m comfortable considering to her advice because I know she respects the divine in our lives, whoever/whatever that is. I trust her to give sound advice on issues I struggle with.
In today’s podcast Lisa discussed setting boundaries. It’s so helpful to know how to do that. It’s not an intuitive thing, some of us have habits engrained that we always put ourselves last. Knowing how to set boundaries in a way that is consistent and respectful to others is heartwarming and empowering to me. Thanks Lisa for all of your work, for opening up to us, and making a difference in my life.
