Transcript
- 0:00Kathie: Hi there, it's Kathie Owen, and today I'm going to share something with you that can change your life.
- 0:06Kathie: But before we dive in, let me tell you why I created this calendar.
- 0:11Kathie: It all comes down to one word that can bring tears of joy, shatter procrastination, and demolish plateaus.
- 0:20Kathie: That word is consistency.
- 0:23Kathie: And that's what we're talking about today.
- 0:26Kathie: You're listening to Kathie's Coaching Podcast.
- 0:29Kathie: And today we're talking about consistency.
- 0:32Kathie: You know, as an entrepreneur, I have danced with self doubt, wrestled with the unknown, even just recently, and faced moments where I felt like giving up was the only option, but you know what kept me going?
- 0:47Kathie: The word consistency.
- 0:50Kathie: And so every month I create a calendar for my community inside Kathie's Coaching.
- 0:58Kathie: And that calendar I also distribute throughout the campus at the place where I am the Corporate Wellness Director.
- 1:06Kathie: And here we talk about whatever I see my clients struggling with the most at the time.
- 1:13Kathie: And so last month, or October, was all about setting goals and helping those goals go through.
- 1:22Kathie: Well, what makes those goals go through is consistency.
- 1:27Kathie: By the way, our analytics show that most of you just watch the video but don't subscribe to our channel.
- 1:33Kathie: Guess what?
- 1:34Kathie: When you subscribe to our channel, you make a difference in the logarithm and it puts this video out there for more people.
- 1:43Kathie: And that's what we want to do.
- 1:44Kathie: We want to help more people.
- 1:46Kathie: If you found this video helpful, please give it a thumbs up and...
- 1:51Kathie: Subscribe to our channel, hit that little bell so you never miss a video from me.
- 1:59Kathie: So procrastination, I see it happen so many times as an entrepreneur, including within myself.
- 2:06Kathie: And recently I hit a little bit of a bump, I would call it, in procrastination.
- 2:13Kathie: Because if you noticed, I did not release a video last week.
- 2:17Kathie: on my YouTube channel and this kind of, I kind of struggled with this, but part of it was kindness to myself and just taking a break because I hit something where I was working on MailerLite and I upgraded it to the new MailerLite.
- 2:36Kathie: And when I did this, I ran into all kinds of technological glitches and bumps, but I needed to upgrade this service as.
- 2:46Kathie: Part of my business, because that's where I have been going and growing.
- 2:51Kathie: This happens to all of us inside every aspect of our lives.
- 2:57Kathie: And it's how we deal with it, that we want to shift.
- 3:02Kathie: So notice how I said I was practicing kindness to myself by taking a week off from my content creation because that was super important.
- 3:12Kathie: So when I created this month's calendar about being consistent, I kept in mind that kindness was a value that I hold in my business and in my life as well.
- 3:28Kathie: You know, I am a fitness trainer and a life coach certified for 20 plus years, and I spend most of my coaching time with individuals who grapple with their inner critics, battle relentless plateaus, and fight to reignite their motivation.
- 3:50Kathie: But what lit their path?
- 3:52Kathie: I coached them on the fact of consistency.
- 3:56Kathie: And consistency hits where you celebrate that you were consistent and you celebrate consistency.
- 4:03Kathie: When you stick with something for a period of time.
- 4:08Kathie: It's funny because in the gym I have, um, people who've been working out with me since January and February.
- 4:17Kathie: And they've gotten to where they call themselves, I'm Ms.
- 4:20Kathie: January, I'm Ms.
- 4:22Kathie: February.
- 4:23Kathie: But that right there is a celebration of consistency.
- 4:28Kathie: By calling themselves that, they know that they have been consistent.
- 4:33Kathie: Have they fallen off a few times?
- 4:35Kathie: Absolutely.
- 4:37Kathie: That is part of being human.
- 4:39Kathie: Just like me falling off from committing to my daily, weekly content creation.
- 4:47Kathie: It's part about being kind to yourself because you're going to hit problems where you need to take a break or you need to sit back.
- 4:56Kathie: And sometimes that's what gets you over the plateau.
- 5:01Kathie: So that's why I poured my heart and soul into creating this November calendar.
- 5:06Kathie: It's all about taking action and being consistent.
- 5:10Kathie: And it's not just a calendar.

- 5:33Kathie: And that is what...
- 5:35Kathie: I love about this calendar and love about creating this calendar.
- 5:39Kathie: So at my office, where I am the corporate wellness director, people print this calendar out, put it up at their desk, tell me they take it home, hang it up at home.
