    Ep #139: How to Be Less Scared

    In this episode, I address the fear and anxiety many of us are feeling due to current events. I discuss the power of language and how the words we use can either escalate or ease our fears. By being more mindful of the language we use, practicing self-compassion, and taking small, intentional actions to reduce fear, we can create a greater sense of calm and control. I offer practical tips for using language that soothes, taking comforting actions, and focusing on one small thing each day that can lessen our fear and help us stay grounded. ************************************************* Connect with me * ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up for a free one-hour midlife magic consultation call ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠to discover what you most want for the second half of your life and how coaching can help *⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up to receive my mindset shifts, right in your inbox⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ * ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Check out my website ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ * Email me at rachel@coachingwithrachel.com

    Ep #138: The Good List

    Do you start your day with the news and then find yourself feeling down? Or would you just like an easy way to feel stronger, more resilient, less stressed? If so, The Good List is one simple but powerful tool. By intentionally naming what is good in our life, right now, we can train our brains to focus on the good, build emotional resilience, and bring more joy into our daily lives. I share simple ways to start your own good list, either alone or with a friend, to add positive emotional fuel to every day. ************************************ Mentioned in this episode: Tahini Chocolate Challah Buns recipe (from Smitten Kitchen) Connect with me * ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up for a free one-hour midlife magic consultation call ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠to discover what you most want for the second half of your life and how coaching can help *⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up to receive my mindset shifts, right in your inbox⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ * ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Check out my website ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ * Email me at rachel@coachingwithrachel.com

    Inauguration Day '25 Special episode

    In the United States, today is Martin Luther King, Jr Day. May his memory inspire each of us to work for social justice. It is also the inauguration day of a leader whose words and actions evoke great anxiety and anger for many of us. I made this special episode to say that I see you and am with you -- and also to highlight the importance of mindset, especially now. We don't need to deny what we're feeling, but we can remind ourselves -- actively and regularly -- that other emotions are available to us, and will be useful to us -- emotions such as courage, conviction, confidence, and connection.

    Ep #137: Experiment Your Way to Less Stress & Overwhelm

    Do you want less stress & overwhelm? Me too! In this episode, I share a strategy for lowering stress and overwhelm -- not meditation, baths, or exercise, but maybe all of them or something else entirely. Rather than providing a single "right" answer, we're going to experiment together to see what helps. Just the thought "I'm working on this" lowered my stress level and the feelings of dread I was having about returning work after vacation. By running small, personal experiments like adjusting my routine, sketching, and practicing self-compassion, I aim to discover what works best for me to reduce stress and I hope you'll join me with experiments of your own. Take a listen and let me know what you're experimenting with! ************************************ Mentioned in this episode: Martha Beck, Beyond Anxiety: Curiosity, Creativity, and Finding Your Life's Purpose Connect with me * ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up for a free one-hour midlife magic consultation call ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠to discover what you most want for the second half of your life and how coaching can help *⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up to receive my mindset shifts, right in your inbox⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ * ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Check out my website ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ * Email me at rachel@coachingwithrachel.com

    Ep #136: Relentless Love

    What would it mean if we showed up for ourselves with relentless love? What if rather than a relentless self-critical voice, we asked every day, What does love want today? This may seem like a head-in-the-clouds kind of pondering, but actually, relentless love is how we get things done and how we welcome in real change. In this episode, I explain and also offer four guiding questions that you can use as a daily practice to keep focused on what really matters to you. ************************************ Connect with me * ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up for a free one-hour midlife magic consultation call ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠to discover what you most want for the second half of your life and how coaching can help *⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up to receive my mindset shifts, right in your inbox⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ * ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Check out my website ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ * Email me at rachel@coachingwithrachel.com

    Ep #135: Rewriting Your Life Story

    In this New Year's episode, I talk about using storytelling to shape our lives, focusing on how imagining our future—even writing our own “obituary”—can help us see a bigger picture. Rewriting our life story, especially during challenging times, reminds us that our story isn’t finished yet, and allows us to look at life and ourselves with compassion. In this episode: ➡️ Understand how storytelling can shift your perspective on difficult times and help you see your life in a more empowering light. ➡️ Learn practical ways to imagine telling the story of your life as an older version of yourself ➡️ Discover the power of reframing “failures” and difficult times to change the power they have in your life's story ➡️ Gain tools for writing multiple versions of your story, looking for your core values as through lines. ***************************************** Mentioned in this episode: List of core values (James Clear) Connect with me * ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up for a free one-hour midlife magic consultation call ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠to discover what you most want for the second half of your life and how coaching can help *⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up to receive my mindset shifts, right in your inbox⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ * ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Check out my website ⁠⁠⁠⁠ * Email me at rachel@coachingwithrachel.com

    Ep #134: Hold Hope for Yourself and Create the Future You Want

    Inspired by the holidays and just in time for the new year, this episode is about hope. I explore the power of holding hope for ourselves, even when our current reality feels far from where we want to be. Hope isn’t about imagining a perfect future, but about recognizing that what we see now is not the only possible reality. By developing a relationship with our future self, we can gain clarity, guidance, and curiosity about how to move forward, even when we don’t have all the answers. I encourage you to be curious about your future self, learn from them, and take small steps toward the future you desire. This episode shows how to: ➡️ Hold Hope for Yourself: Hope is about believing that your current reality is not the only possibility—both in personal and collective contexts. ➡️ Get Curious About Your Future Self: Instead of self-judgment, approach your future self with curiosity and ask questions to uncover how they figured things out. ➡️ Set Realistic Goals: Develop a healthy relationship with your future self, focusing on small, actionable steps rather than a perfect vision. ➡️ Move Beyond Stagnation: Use hope and curiosity to fuel your next steps, even when things don’t go according to plan or past strategies have failed. ***************************************** Connect with me * ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up for a free one-hour midlife magic consultation call ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠to discover what you most want for the second half of your life and how coaching can help *⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up to receive my mindset shifts, right in your inbox⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ * ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Check out my website ⁠⁠⁠ * Email me at rachel@coachingwithrachel.com

    Ep #133: Make the Holidays Easier

    Are you feeling overwhelmed with the holidays? Do you want to focus on the things that really matter? Me too. In this episode, I focus on this simple question: "How can I make my holidays easier?" While we often focus on what we can do, ease often comes from how we think. Through positive self-talk and focusing on what matters most to us (and letting go of the rest), we can create holiday experiences that feel more like a gift to ourself -- even if we struggle at the holidays. Having your own back and speaking kindly to yourself is truly the greatest gift you can give. ***************************************** Connect with me * ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up for a free one-hour midlife magic consultation call ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠to discover what you most want for the second half of your life and how coaching can help *⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up to receive my mindset shifts, right in your inbox⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ * ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Check out my website ⁠⁠⁠ * Email me at rachel@coachingwithrachel.com
