    Stop Starting Over

    If you’ve been trying to change your habits, your mindset, or your life—and you keep falling back into old patterns—this episode will explain why. Sustainable change isn’t about more motivation or willpower. It’s about identity. In this episode of This Daring Adventure, Trista shares how identity is created through the thoughts you repeatedly think about who you are, and why you can’t change what you’re doing without changing who you’re being. You’ll learn how to identify your current identity, choose a new one on purpose, and build evidence through small daily actions that make your change your new normal. This is a powerful taste of the work Trista is teaching inside Shift 2026 in her coaching community, You, Redefined. What You’ll Learn in This EpisodeIn this episode, you’ll learn: Why you keep “starting over” even when you want changeWhat identity really is (and why it’s not a personality trait or a fixed label)How your identity creates your results using the Life Coach School ModelThe difference between trying to change and becoming someone newHow to choose a new identity that matches the life you wantWhy discomfort is a sign of growth—not failureA simple 3-step identity practice you can use immediately Key TakeawaysIdentity is not who you are—it’s what you repeatedly think about who you are.Your results are a reflection of your practiced identity, not your potential.Sustainable change becomes possible when you stop trying harder and start becoming different.You build a new identity through evidence, not perfection.The discomfort you feel during change is often the signal that it’s working.

    Hard situations, strong relationships

    Hard situations are unavoidable — family stress, grief, shared responsibilities, conflict, holidays, work projects, or major life transitions. What is optional is letting those moments damage the relationships that matter most. In this episode of This Daring Adventure, we explore how to move through hard situations without losing connection, compassion, or yourself in the process. This episode offers a grounded, practical framework for navigating emotionally charged situations with intention and care. Rather than focusing on fixing others or controlling outcomes, this conversation centers on self-leadership: managing your thoughts, processing emotions, allowing discomfort, and choosing how you want to show up — again and again. This episode is for anyone who wants to build strong relationships, even when life feels messy, heavy, or overwhelming. What You’ll Learn in This EpisodeIn this episode, I share 10 principles to help you navigate hard situations while protecting and strengthening your relationships: Why setting an intention for the relationship changes everythingHow the story you tell yourself shapes your emotional experienceHow to choose how you want to show up — regardless of others’ behaviorWhy rehearsal and visualization help you respond instead of reactHow to release control over others and reclaim control over yourselfWhy discomfort is not a problem — it’s part of meaningful connectionHow processing emotions regularly prevents resentment and burnoutThe role of compassion for both yourself and the other personWhy this work must be practiced repeatedly, not onceHow to recover when you mess up and begin again without self-judgment Key Topics CoveredNavigating relationships during stressful or emotional situationsManaging family dynamics and conflictEmotional regulation and intentional livingPersonal growth during hard seasonsCompassion, boundaries, and self-leadershipHow to stay connected under pressure Reflection QuestionsWhat hard situation or relationship am I currently navigating?What do I want the relationship to look and feel like when this is over?What story am I telling about the other person — and is it helping me?How do I want to show up when things feel uncomfortable?li...

    The year doesn't decide. You do.

    Every year, we hear the same thing: “I hope this year brings you everything you want.” But what if the year isn’t bringing you anything at all? In this New Year’s Day episode, Trista challenges the quiet but powerful belief that time, circumstances, or January 1st will magically create change in our lives. Instead, she invites you into something far more empowering: ownership, intention, and agency. This episode isn’t about resolutions, pressure, or “new year, new you.” It’s about remembering that you are the creator of your life—not the recipient of it. Inside this episode, you’ll explore: Why hoping for the year to “bring you something” subtly gives away your powerWhat you actually do control—and why it’s enoughThe difference between intention and outcomeWhy the best year yet doesn’t mean an easy yearHow to stop waiting and start deliberately creating your life This is a calm, grounding reminder that you don’t need to feel ready, confident, or certain to begin. You just need to be willing. If you’re ready to stop drifting, stop waiting, and start creating— this episode is for you. Happy New Year. Let’s build it on purpose. Let's go! If this episode spoke to you, you’ll love the work we’re doing inside You, Redefined — my coaching community where we’re preparing for Shift 2026, a 12-week identity and mindset transformation designed to help you create real, sustainable change.

    The illusion of safety

    In this episode of This Daring Adventure podcast, hosted by mindset mentor and life coach Trista Guertin, the focus is on 'The Illusion of Safety.' Inspired by Tony Robbins' concept of human needs, especially certainty, Trista explores how our quest for external predictability often holds us back. She contrasts external certainty—control, comfort, predictability—with internal certainty—self-trust, confidence, groundedness. Highlighting that real security comes from within, Trista shares actionable tips through the three pillars of inner certainty: self-trust, emotional regulation, and intentional thinking. Additionally, she offers daily practices to help shift from fear to faith and from control to growth. Work with Me:If this episode resonated with you, it’s time to take the next step.
