Owning Your Process

215: Owning Your Process

This is our final episode in our Unrelenting Ownership theme and in it I talk about what it means to:

=> own your motivation
=> own your strategy
=> own your failure
=> own your success

Have a listen and let me know if it helps!

Listen Now!

It doesn’t matter why you think you can’t.

You absolutely CAN.

This is not just health coaching—it’s a personalized road map to the prime of your life.

It’s coaching that will make today feel like the best days of your life are ahead of you, no matter where you’re at right now.

Let's get to work.

If you have spent even an ounce of time researchin

If you have spent even an ounce of time researching “how to change habits”, you have likely bumped into the book Atomic Habits by James Clear.

Well… Grace & Grit is hosting its very first book club called, Study It w/ Grace & Grit, and Atomic Habits is the first book on deck!

Claire Schulz Bergman, an avid athlete, wellness professional, and licensed therapist will be facilitating this book club so I have invited her to the Grace & Grit podcast to have a conversation about her personal journey with behavior change and some of the key principles she will be diving into with book club participants from Atomic Habits.

Regardless, of whether you are interested in joining the book club or not, this is a podcast you won’t want to miss. So many great reminders and insights in this podcast!

We become a product of what we practice. Not just

We become a product of what we practice.

Not just WHAT we practice but HOW we practice.

You can be angry, resentful, and annoyed along the path to change but...

The energy you create change with is the same energy you will use to try and sustain that change.

If you want to live in a space of peace, joy and self-compassion THAT is the energy you need to practice with NOW. That energy doesn't magically appear once you reach a goal.

What is the energy you are currently bringing to the change process? Is that energy you want to sustain for the long term?

I made the move to shift my entire business online

I made the move to shift my entire business online a decade ago, but truth be told, I was ready 5 years prior to actually doing it. So why didn't I do it sooner?

So. Many. Reasons.

🤔 Other people didn't seem to understand. I was successful doing what I was doing. Why change?

😬 I was scared. Online business wasn't as common as it is today, especially in my industry, so if felt hugely risky.

🤦‍♀️ I was "should-ing" all over myself...

I should be content with the way things were. (except I wasn't)

I should make everyone comfortable with my decisions. (impossible!)

I should just work harder at what I was already doing. (hello burnout)

And despite ALL the reasons that paralyzed me from taking action, perhaps none was greater than my fear of letting go of the familiar and of what was no longer nourishing me.

Eventually the discomfort of staying the same became greater than my fear of letting go, so let go of the familiar ... I finally did. What I discovered was...

💥 Letting go of what was not longer lighting me up made room for what actually did.

💥 Betting on myself, trusting that I would land on my feet, infused me with a level of confidence I had never really known.

💥 Following the breadcrumbs of what brings me alive doesn't just nourish me, ultimately it nourishes everyone around me.

I don't know what has been pulling on your heartstrings for years that you have been avoiding taking action on.

What I do know is that you are worth betting on and that following the breadcrumbs of your own aliveness is something that every single person you interact with with benefit from.

I hope you give yourself permission to follow the breadcrumbs:)

Remember the Great Outdoors with John Candy and Da

Remember the Great Outdoors with John Candy and Dan Ackroyd? (I am definitely dating myself here)

Well... the waterski scene is a GREAT example of how I see a lot of my clients going through life. They are very clear on what isn't working for them AND they refuse to let go. GAH.

It is really hard to rise to the occasion of your life when you are constantly being pulled around by things that no longer serve you (and maybe never did). And…
Letting go of the familiar and stepping into uncertainty can feel so damn hard.

In this week's of the Grace & Grit podcast, I share some of the most common things I see my clients clinging to, to the detriment of their own well-being, including identities, beliefs, jobs, and relationships that they have long outgrown.

More importantly, I share powerful ways to reframe letting go, so you can do it with more grace.

25 years ago I was teaching Butts & Guts classes at 5 am for the University of Michigan rec center. Today I help women all over the globe improve their well-being by helping them to improve their relationship with themselves.

I’ve come a long way, baby!

In case, you are new to my tiny particle of internet real estate called Grace & Grit, here are a few tenets of the work that I do these days.

💥⁣⁣Health is Multifaceted

Our culture has boiled it down to a physical pursuit consisting of diet and exercise, but health is SO MUCH MORE than that.

Health is a relationship. The most intimate, long-term relationship you will ever have.

It is the relationship you have with yourself and the world around you.

And like any relationship… there are a lot of moving parts to consider.

Trust, honesty, consistency, communication… and so much more.

💥Grace AND Grit are the REAL superfoods.

To live a fully expressed and authentic life, you will need to learn how to accept, heal, befriend, love, and extend GRACE to yourself.

AND…

You will have to lean into discomfort, risk disappointing some people, set boundaries, and show up consistently to do the work you have called yourself to do:)

💥Self-Leadership Is the Secret Sauce.

While mentors, teachers, and coaches can give you some directions in VERY specific areas of your life to develop skills and get closer to particular outcomes - YOU are responsible for taking into consideration how that advice fits into the rest of your life.

And the honest to God truth is… a lot of “wellness” advice you get may not make any sense to your life. Only YOU can decide that.

💥 Life is Transformation
I do not help women create once-in-a-lifetime transformations. ⁣
⁣
I help equip women with tools that will allow them to lean into a life of transformation because life IS transformation.
