True Confessions - Yes I relapsed - Episode 252
In episode 252 of the Doing What Matters podcast, host Teresa McCloy opens up about her recent struggles with feeling overwhelmed and living with her hair on fire. She discusses the pressures she has been facing in her personal and professional life, including the purchase of another company, team adjustments, and the birth of her grandchild. Despite feeling disheartened, Teresa shares her journey of rediscovering balance and finding hope in the form of a 90-day reset. Teresa walks the listeners through her process of resetting and regaining control of her life. She emphasizes the importance of reconnecting with one's core values and needs, and taking the time to reflect on what truly matters. By getting in touch with her being, Teresa is able to create a solid foundation for her actions and decision-making. She discusses the concept of a rule of life and shares her experience of deviating from it, leading to her current state of overwhelm. The second part of Teresa's reset process involves the doing aspect. After reconnecting with her being, she revisits her real life view document, in which she has captured her true self and her values. By reviewing this document, she gains clarity and is able to prioritize her actions based on what aligns with her vision and goals. Teresa encourages listeners to take this opportunity to pause, assess what is working and what isn't, and make intentional choices for moving forward. Throughout the episode, Teresa highlights the transformative power of a 90-day reset. She shares her own personal growth and the positive impact it has had on her life. By taking the time to reset, listeners can break free from the cycle of living with their hair on fire and find ways to live from a place of rest rather than rush. Teresa's vulnerability and hope provide inspiration and practical advice for those who may be feeling overwhelmed and seeking a way out. In the conclusion of the episode, Teresa expresses her renewed sense of purpose and determination as she embarks on the next chapter of her life. She encourages listeners to embrace their own 90-day reset and discover the clarity and peace that come from aligning their actions with their core values. Teresa's true confessions serve as a reminder that everyone faces challenges and setbacks, but with intentionality and a commitment to self-care, it is possible to overcome them and thrive.

Can I really Change Behavior? The answer is Yes! - Episode 251
In this episode of the Doing What Matters Podcast, hosted by Teresa McCloy, we delve into the profound concept of the rule of life and its integral role in behavioral change. Teresa begins by defining the rule of life as a commitment to living life guided by patterns of behaviors, routines, and rhythms, shaped through discernment in collaboration with one's values and divine design. This rule of life serves as a dynamic framework, assisting individuals in making life decisions and aligning their daily activities accordingly, emphasizing the shift from a human "doing" to a human "being." The journey toward behavioral change is a key theme explored in the episode. Teresa explains that the transformation process starts with recognizing the need for change and then progresses through stages: behavior, routine, rhythm, and spiritual rhythm. It is a thoughtful shift from managing behaviors to establishing new routines and, eventually, embracing these behaviors as practiced rhythms in daily life. Over time, these rhythms become a spiritual practice that fosters a deeper connection with God in the everyday moments of life. Teresa provides personal examples to illustrate these principles. She shares her journey of turning a seemingly selfish desire for a hot tub into a spiritual practice. The daily ritual of enjoying her hot tub became a sacred moment, allowing her to notice the extraordinary within the ordinary. Another example she offers is her practice of capturing everyday moments as extraordinary moments, which has now persisted for nearly 1,900 days. The podcast concludes with practical takeaways. Teresa encourages listeners to reflect on areas in their lives where behavioral change is needed and emphasizes the importance of a rule of life in guiding positive behaviors and rhythms. She reminds us that transformation is an ongoing process, and we must remain vigilant in nurturing our spiritual rhythms. Listeners are invited to join the podcast community and explore further, including information about the coach certification program. Teresa leaves us with a powerful message: "Every ordinary day has an extraordinary moment. You just have to look for them." The Doing What Matters Podcast continues to offer valuable insights and practical guidance for those seeking a life of purpose and rest over rush. [00:02:12] Talking, enlightening, invitation to share journey, discovering rule of life. [00:06:10] What matters, what doesn't; finding balance.

From Coach to Entrepreneur: Embracing the E-Myth
In this episode of the "Doing What Matters" podcast, host Teresa McCloy dives into the valuable insights offered by Michael Gerber's book, "The E-Myth Revisited." She reviews the book's significance in helping individuals (especially those in the coaching profession) understand the critical factors that contribute to the success or failure of businesses. There is a common misconception that expertise in a particular skill automatically equates to effective business management. Teresa introduces the three pivotal roles every business owner should embrace: the Entrepreneur, the Manager, and the Technician. "The E-Myth Revisited" highlights the importance of balancing these roles within a coaching business. The Entrepreneur, characterized by visionary thinking and future-oriented planning, sets the direction and possibilities for the business. The Manager, on the other hand, focuses on creating systems and processes, often resisting change to maintain stability. Finally, the Technician thrives in the present, engaging directly with clients. Teresa breaks down the ideal time allocation for each role, offering practical guidance for coaches looking to effectively manage their businesses. She also introduces the concept of the REALIFE Process's 90-day reset approach, emphasizing the need for visioning and planning to ensure long-term success. Furthermore, Teresa underscores the necessity for coaches to embrace all facets of their business, not solely focusing on client interaction. She invites listeners to explore the upcoming REALIFE Process coach certification program, highlighting the value of joining a community of like-minded individuals dedicated to personal and professional growth. The episode concludes with a reminder that building a coaching business takes dedication and effort but ultimately leads to fulfilling work that aligns with one's values and goals. Teresa provides a glimpse of the exciting developments on the horizon for the podcast and the REALIFE Process community in the upcoming fall season.

245: How a Project Mindmap Moves You From Dreaming to Action
What is the difference between a project and a goal, and how might shifting your mindset lead to more action? In this episode, I’m sharing about the second component of the REALIFE Process®–REALIFE Action–and how you can move from dreaming to taking action on what matters to you. We’ll talk about: Why a project mindset will help you do more than dream about what you want How using the tool of the mindmap helps you get your thoughts out of your brain and onto paper Why mindmapping a project can eliminate decision fatigue How pre-deciding action steps can give you focus during chaotic seasons Having dreams for our life is important, but it takes breaking those down into actionable steps if we’re going to make progress and move forward. This episode will give you tools and ideas for how to do just that.
