    FACE vs Fight, Flight, Freeze, Fawn - With Just Amy!

    Fight, Flight, Freeze and Fawn. Such powerful survival mechanisms! They literally can save your life. But do you ever jump to those default reactions even when the situation is NOT life threatening? The problem is those automatic reflexes aren't always appropriate in daily life - they bypass the rational, strategic part of your brain. What if you could FACE the stressful moments instead - CALM, centered, strong, able to find fresh approaches. Let's expand your options for more thriving, not just surviving! SOLO EPISODE: Just Amy K! THE SCOOP: It happens to most of us - going into fight, flight, freeze or fawn for not so serious circumstances. A rush of adrenaline around a contentious political issue. Ducking out of the room when you see that person who owes you money. Freezing up when the boss blames you for the missed deadline. Trying to appease everyone when an argument breaks out at the dinner table. Here is a quick reminder of what each of these looks and feels like: Fight: your back goes up, you lean into aggressive, primed to push back Flight: you are ready to run, move away from the event or the person, avoid  Freeze: you get quiet, still, even go a bit numb Fawn: this one is less well known, but basically you move into please & appease mode "Face" is a new option. Think of it as a posture you select, literally & figuratively.  CHOOSING to lean in and orient towards what's triggering you, rather than being hijacked by reflex. Strong, grounded, relaxed and open. Breathing deeply and easily. Face is about looking forward! ALIVE, fully present and able to tap into your true superpower - your creativity, ability to consider a variety of ideas and experiment.  Listen in to dial up YOUR ability to FACE your challenges.

    78 - Life By Design, Not Default

    SOLO EPISODE: Just Amy K! THE SCOOP: Here are six examples of the switch - see if any of these speak to you or spark ideas. Default: random scrolling of what the algorithm serves up Design: prioritizing specific people to connect with or sources that truly inspire you   Default: meetings filling up your calendar and dictating your flow Design: questioning the whole premise & asking if there is a better way to deliver results   Default: friends that no longer fit who you are Design: contemplating what kinds of people you want in your life   Default: paycheck to paycheck  Design: taking a hard look at money in versus money out and making the smart decisions   Default: staying in a career just because it's where you ended up Design: believing that you CAN pivot & taking one step forward   Default: settling for really crappy communication with your partner, boss or friend Design: addressing the issue, describing how it could be better, inviting a change Are You Ready For Your Own GROWTH MOMENT?

    Why Are You Here? - With Just Amy!

    Why are you here on the planet? Let that sink in. Stay with it. Why are YOU here? What is your purpose? I often ask a client these questions - right in the first session. I figure - let's cut to the chase & get to the bottom line. Because I believe each of us has something vital and unique to offer the world. So, today's episode is only about that - pondering and perhaps answering - why ARE you here. If you're intrigued and eager to know what you have to say - keep listening.  SOLO EPISODE: Just Amy K! THE SCOOP: This is your opportunity to explore why you are HERE! We start the exploration process of clarifying your purpose so you can better understand and claim who you are. Here are a few examples of clients' statements of purpose over the years. I hope you will share yours! My purpose is to leave places & people I encounter better than I found them.  Be a beacon. Wander around & experience the world.  Help people through difficult spots in their lives.  Partner with smart, interesting people to push the world in the right direction. Save the oceans.   Create beauty. Tell the truth that others are too afraid to say. Work on the BIG problems.  Foster connection & community. Provide a safe & stable place for my family to grow.   And one of my all time favorites - bring relentless, uplifting, mischievous curiosity to those that want to know themselves. (that one is from a fellow coach) Are You Ready For Your Own GROWTH MOMENT? My purpose as a coach is to help unlock your full potential.

    Smarter, Not Harder - With Just Amy!

    How can it be smarter, not harder? That is a question I pose often to my clients. It's a favorite because it usually generates an immediate mindshift. Moving you away from the "suffer through and slog it out" part of your brain into the "wait a minute, I can see a better way!" SMARTER accesses your natural brilliance and human ingenuity. I want to give you a big dose of smarter for whatever is feeling harder in your life.   SOLO EPISODE: Just Amy K! THE SCOOP: Coaching is an art, not a science, so there is no set process. However, sometimes it's lovely to have a few tools in your back pocket. Here is a list of smarter, not harder ideas. See which ones jump out or speak to you for shifting into smarter: #1 Be Clear & On Purpose. Understand your "why" and align actions with your vision. Basically, get out of the weeds and into the bigger picture. Keep asking yourself, does this move me closer to my goal? #2 Leverage & Amplify. Collaborate, delegate & get help! Hand off some of the hard to someone who might be able to do it better, faster or cheaper so you can focus on what you love to do.  #3 Streamline, baby! Design a process that reduces the friction and prevents bottlenecks.  #4 Manage your energy and emotions. When you are hitting harder, you might need to dial up the self care. Your brain IS marvelous but runs out of gas - know when to rest and restore. #5 Experiment! Approach harder with curiosity and creativity. Ask yourself, what else is possible? Find a brainstorming partner or coach! Free to try things & toss what doesn't work. #6 Do It Your Way - full permission, your way or the highway. Forget about what everyone else says. Focus your time and attention on your unique strengths or zone of genius. Trust yourself. Are You Ready For Your Own GROWTH MOMENT? My purpose as a coach is to help unlock your full potential.
