270. Plan A Plan B: The Secret to Resolutions
I like to call this the most delusional time of the year because many of us use this time to make goals and resolutions for the coming year that are completely unrealistic for the people we are right now. No wonder many resolutions go unfulfilled; our goals are out of touch with reality. Tune in to this week’s podcast episode to learn one simple concept that will change your habit-making life, how this concept can keep your goal alive even when all hell breaks loose, and how you can tell whether or not your goal is really just a fantasy you’re chasing.Get full show notes and more information here: https://unfuckyourbrain.com/270Mentioned in this episode:Have you been secretly dreaming of becoming a coach?I've got something for you.

269. Creating My New Style Self Live on the Podcast with Judith Gaton
I love the way I dress, but lately I feel like there’s been some disconnect in my style. I’ve changed, and so has my business, and I want my style to evolve as well.

267. Being in Charge & Working Motherhood: A Conversation with Sarah Nicole of The Papaya Podcast
Why is it so hard for us to believe that we’re the authority? It’s because as women, we were socialized to think that way (shocking, right?) — to feel like we’re not quite adults and we’re just faking it till we make it. In this special podcast episode, you’ll hear an interview I did with Sarah Nicole on The Papaya Podcast. We’ll discuss how our socialization affects why we don’t see ourselves as adults, how women are taught to believe that our value fluctuates, and the conflict and tension inherent in being a working mom.Get full show notes and more information here: https://unfuckyourbrain.com/267Mentioned in this episode:Have you been secretly dreaming of becoming a coach?I've got something for you.

266. Personalization: Getting it Wrong v. Being Wrong
How do you treat yourself when you don’t get the result you want? Or when you’re wrong about something? Or when you act in a way that you don’t like? Do you have your own back in these situations or do you make it mean there’s something wrong with you as a person?Listen in as I discuss the difference between doing wrong and being wrong, how thinking you’re wrong can actually make you less likely to fix what went wrong in the first place, and how shame from being wrong keeps you from going after what you want in life.Get full show notes and more information here: https://unfuckyourbrain.com/266Mentioned in this episode:Have you been secretly dreaming of becoming a coach?I've got something for you.

265. Conversations with My Partner Part 2: Daily Life and Q+A
We often think romantic relationships have a natural progression, right? You meet the perfect partner, you start dating, and as things get serious you start talking about your future together — which usually involves moving in together, marriage, and maybe even kids. But the truth is, you and your partner always get to decide what your relationship looks like - even if it’s different from society’s expectations. This week on the podcast, in the conclusion of a 2-part series, the Gentleman Consort and I discuss getting to decide what our relationship looks like, how we’ve grown since we began dating, and what we love most about each other.Get full show notes and more information here: https://unfuckyourbrain.com/265Mentioned in this episode:Have you been secretly dreaming of becoming a coach?I've got something for you.

263. Agonizing Over Decisions and Preparing for Unhelpful Thoughts: Takeaways from Clutch College
Just a few weeks ago we closed out our last Clutch College Live for a while. Over the course of the 3-day, live, in-person and virtual event, minds were blown and breakthroughs were made. A lot of what I coached on had to do with goals — and I want to share some of the amazing takeaways that came out of that weekend.Tune in to find out the real reason you don’t set goals, what we’re actually afraid of when we’re agonizing over a decision, how to be prepared for the inevitability of your brain offering you an old thought that will not help you reach your goal, and how life is always 50/50, no matter what.Get full show notes and more information here: https://unfuckyourbrain.com/263Mentioned in this episode:Have you been secretly dreaming of becoming a coach?I've got something for you.

Giving yourself permission to want the things you want *and* to go out and get them is one of the most powerful decisions you can make in your life – and it’s also one of the hardest.

261. Socialization, Authority, and Owning Your Power: A Conversation with Brooke Castillo Part 1
What does it mean to have authority over your own life? When it comes down to it, having authority looks like having your own back, no matter what happens.
