Part 3-Coaching Solutions to Live By: Look INSIDE, not OUTSIDE

Coaching Solution Part 3: Be With Your Own Mess & Love It

 

Look Inside Not Outside: If I had a dollar for every time someone asked me if this pill, this supplement, or this diet would be the golden ticket to their transformation, I would be wealthy! When something isn’t working inside our bodies, as in the case of lifestyle related diseases, many folks begin a frantic search outside of their bodies for a solution. When change is necessary, vital, and even life-threatening the first place many people turn for solutions is outside of themselves, when in fact the most valuable tools for change already exist inside of you.

 

Sit with the Discomfort of Your Pain: Being inside yourself, looking for answers, means spending time with yourself and sitting with the shame, pain, loss, and discomfort that you’ve been numbing for so long. Embracing your messy parts and being with them, doesn’t mean you’re broken—it means your human.

 

Part of our shared humanity is embracing the mess, our own mess, without beating ourselves up with shame and judgement. Working with a therapist to heal past trauma while working with a coach to create a vibrate future is an amazing way to start feeling alive again and embracing what it means to live and be human.
