How many times have you asked yourself, “what’s my purpose”? If you’re like most of us, probably too many times to count. As we get older, the question seems to get a little louder. Today’s guests on the Run Your Life Podcast are just the dynamic duo you need to provide you with proactive, intentional tools to help you along that journey. Charles Feltman and Ila Edgar are both executive and leadership coaches offering a distinctive twist on finding your purpose and creating meaning in your personal and professional life. They achieve this through Charles’ trademarked model described in his book, The Thin Book of Trust and their growing podcast, Trust on Purpose.

In today’s episode, expect to hear many things that are sure to provide you with a fresh perspective that you probably haven’t considered before. This fresh perspective allows you to look at your current situation differently and thus move you in the right direction. Both readily admit they don’t have all the answers and they are by no means perfect. They are human just like the rest of us. What they have is experience, expertise, empathy, and the courage to confront!

Mind shifting truths to listen for in today’s episode:
1. Trust is foundational
When your team or family is built upon trust, you will outperform your wildest dreams and performance objectives.
2. Boundaries and self-expression are okay
Many of us learn from our families of origin to suppress feelings, not express our needs, or not set boundaries. Charles and Ila help us realize that all of this is okay and is vital in establishing trust in our homes and workplaces.
3. Life knocks
When we fail to do what’s mentioned above, it can have damaging repercussions later in life. Learn how to develop resiliency and better manage adversity when it occurs.
4. WAIT
“Why Am I Talking?” We all have heard that the “good Lord gave us two ears and one mouth for a reason”. However, using Charles’ WAIT model is the master’s level for listening.
5. You DO have a choice
Oftentimes in life we tell ourselves we don’t have a choice. Charles fundamentally disagrees and believes you can unleash incredible personal power by simply recognizing that you always have a choice.
6. Perception is reality. But is it really?
Ila stresses that we need to withhold our personal judgements when we interact with our world. Or examine why we are judging and how we got there. Many times, it’s not what people are doing to us, it’s simply how they are behaving that is worth exploring more.
7. Who we are is how we lead
Self-awareness and authenticity are keys to great leadership. We as humans, all bring our own unique life experiences to everything we do. Those who excel as leaders recognize this and invest great amounts of time and effort in better understanding that so they can maximize their own effectiveness as well as the effectiveness of those around them.
