136: 3 Tips for Coaching Yourself

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In today's episode, I want to talk about three key traits we all need to become our own best coaches: flexibility, self observation, and support.  As a woman who wears many hats, namely those of mom, entrepreneur, athlete, and host, it’s important to me to support others and myself.  And what I’ve learned is that giving yourself advice is more often than not the hardest thing to do.  At the end of the day, we are our harshest critics.  So that’s why today I want to talk about listening to our minds and bodies, balancing flexibility and discipline, and most importantly, supporting ourselves.  </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">I discuss small and big changes you can make in your daily life to help you grow and glow.  From writing plans in pencil and honest reflection skills to the pitfalls of positivity and disciplined flexibility, I speak very candidly about self-coaching, because I know how challenging it can be.  So listen in today, not only to learn about how you can become your biggest ally, but also about a very special program starting in January. </span></p> <p> </p> <p><strong>The Finer Details of This Episode: </strong></p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">The value of flexibility with discipline</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Writing plans in pencil</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Self observation</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">The importance of honest reflection</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Being supportive </span></li> </ul> <p><strong><br /> Quotes: </strong></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I want you to be the coach you need, because inevitably, we are usually better to others than we are to ourselves.”</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Because when w
