- 0:10be a farmer. This is my chicken coop and I
- 0:12come out here every day to record a podcast to teach
- 0:16distinctions, possibilities, new ways of thinking, and just bring
- 0:20some joy. Into the.
- 0:21World. So welcome to the coop and let's
- 0:23start your day off in a fantastic way, hey?
- 0:27Everybody, good morning. Yesterday I had a client ask me
- 0:32how I don't get thrown from person to person.
- 0:36Like if you're coaching and someone's in a horrible state
- 0:39and then you have to go to the next person, how do you do that
- 0:42without getting thrown? And the, and the question came
- 0:45up because he manages a very large team and there are lots of
- 0:51emotions flying because he manages humans and it's that
- 0:55time of the year and it's stressful and there's lots of
- 0:57things happening. And he said it's just, it can be
- 1:01daunting. And I said, yes, it can be
- 1:03daunting for sure. But the question is, how do you
- 1:06go into it? What are your beliefs around it?
- 1:09And as he asked me, I was in a very he this is a person that I
- 1:15coached for a very long time and we have very deep conversations.
- 1:20And I wanted to impart on him the absolute truth.
- 1:25So I paused and I was like, OK, I have to source this because
- 1:29it's something that happens automatically for me of how I
- 1:32manage these things because I don't take something from one
- 1:36session to another to another. And how do you leave something
- 1:39and then go on. And I went on to explain that in
- 1:42my work, it's much easier than it is in my personal life.
- 1:46In other words, if I have an argument with my husband, it's
- 1:48harder for me to leave it behind because I'm not in that space.
- 1:52I feel like when I am off, I can be my like completely be myself
- 1:57and be present. And if I'm emotional, I can let
- 2:01that emotion sit with me. Right or wrong, that's how I
- 2:03feel. And that's just truth.
- 2:05Can I get rid of it? Sure.
- 2:07Do I put them aside? Yes.
- 2:09But often it takes harder. And it's also in align with
- 2:12what's the depth of the offense that I've I've made something up
- 2:16in my head. Where is the meaning in it?
- 2:18So as I dug into this, I realized in order to explain
- 2:23this to him, I had to explain to him that I am.
- 2:28I don't feel like I ever coach alone.
- 2:30I feel I'm a very spiritual person, very spiritual person.
- 2:35I don't believe I'm separated from anything.
- 2:38I'm part of, you know, the energy of this planet when you
- 2:41really study and and read in terms that I can understand
- 2:46because I am not a scientist. Let me be very clear about that.
- 2:50But I love reading that stuff and understanding how quantum
- 2:53physics works. Energy is everything and just
- 2:56because we can't see it or process it or are guys can't see
- 3:01all the different colors in the nuances.
- 3:03We see lots of them, but we don't see them all.
- 3:05And we can hear all frequencies but we can't hear them all.
- 3:09And there are parts of us that are, we can't deny are connected
- 3:15to everything. So to me, that is a sign that
- 3:19the universe lives within me. So therefore I am tapped into
- 3:22everything that is the universe. So therefore I am not doing
- 3:26anything by myself. And I can stay centered and stay
- 3:30calibrated because I believe that the universe constantly
- 3:33conspires to have my back. I think it constantly conspires
- 3:37to set me up. And if I wasn't supposed to be
- 3:39doing this job, I wouldn't be given these tools and it there,
- 3:43it's a part of me. And no matter where I was in my
- 3:46life, even at the down times, those things provided stuff to
- 3:51me that helped me be the person I am and and coach the way that
- 3:57I coach and the patterns that I'd coach.
- 3:59So as I'm explaining this to him, he says, wow, that is a
- 4:05distinct difference. So you really never believe
- 4:07you're like an island. And I was like, no.
- 4:11And he really had believed that he was an island.
- 4:14He was having this experience and this experience was it was
- 4:20putting him in this isolated bubble and he felt lonely.
- 4:24So his frustration as much as it was, he thought dealing with
- 4:27people, which and and getting, you know, the funk off in
- 4:30between sessions of talking to people on his team, It was
- 4:35really a sense of loneliness too.
- 4:37And I said, when you take this, this part and you entrench it in
- 4:42you, you soak it up and you own it.
- 4:45And you know, you're not alone. It eliminates so many other
- 4:50parts of us. And it was like a light went
- 4:53off. It was like something happened
- 4:54in that moment for him. And you could feel it.
- 4:57You could actually feel it. And he was like, wow.
- 5:00So all I have to do is pause and recognize that when I'm in that
- 5:04state, I can be present for them, not feel like I have to
- 5:11take that to the next person. I'm not doing it by myself and I
- 5:16can feel better. And I was like 100% if you tap
- 5:19into it. So the question is, do you feel
- 5:22like you're by yourself? And if you do, are you doing
- 5:26that because you're just not tapped into the faith that you
- 5:29may say you have? Now?
- 5:30Some people may say I don't have the faith and some people may
- 5:32say I don't believe that. And that's cool.
- 5:34Everyone is a can believe whatever they choose.
- 5:37I'm sharing what I believe and what works for me and has worked
- 5:41for me brilliantly for years. So whether it's made-up or real,
- 5:46I don't know. My friends, I'm in the sense of
- 5:48saying I certainly feels very real to me and I live a very
- 5:54like very centered life where I just feel so entrenched and good
- 5:59in it. So it's a possibility for you to
- 6:01think about that. All right, my friends, I hope
- 6:05this helps and I hope you have a fantastic day.
- 6:07Bye.
