The Life Coach School Podcast With Brooke Castillo

This week, we explore what depression is all about, why so many people get stuck in it, and why it’s so difficult for them to get out of it.  I also explain how you can use The Self Coaching Model to better navigate this difficult time of your life.

On this episode, I share some new insights I’ve had about emotions. I talk about how having a broad emotional vocabulary can help you live from the future and practice being who you most want to be. And I share several great exercises for expanding your emotional toolbelt so that you can deepen your relationship with yourself, relationships with others, and experience the full range of emotions that life has to offer.

Today, I want to share my experience of the success that I have achieved through applying The Model in all areas of my life and business. Join me as I talk about my money mindset, dealing with advice from others, the reason why we should always continue growing, and other important lessons I learned from my personal success.

Today, we take an in-depth look at the five main neurotransmitters – dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin, endorphin, and cortisol – how they evolved over time and how they affect our brain. I explain how this “software” happens to be programmed in a way that often makes us think that there’s something wrong with us. Tune in to find out exactly how neurotransmitters affect you and how you can utilize them for your benefit.

Some of the most painful experiences that we endure in our life happen when we resist the pain and create a lot of unnecessary suffering in the process. This week, I want to talk to you about thinking about pain in a different way to make it much more manageable. Join me as I show you what you can think to help accept the physical pain you’re experiencing get better at processing it.

Chances are, if you’re an entrepreneur, you will have to fire someone. Same goes for managers and executives. And if you’re neither, there’s a chance that you may be fired. I think this process is a great metaphor for life and how we handle relationships and people. From figuring out whether someone needs to be fired to managing your mind through this process, you’ll learn everything you need to know about letting them go for the right reasons in a way that serves you and your business.

On this episode of The Life Coach School Podcast, I’m talking about the power of the compound effect and the incredible results you can expect from consistently adding small wins under your belt. Whether you’re trying to lose weight or build your business, this episode is for you. Don’t miss this inspirational episode about the power of compound effect and how you can create incredible results in your life.

On this episode, we talk about the thoughts that prevent you from getting from where you are right now to where you want to be, where these thoughts come from, and how to become aware of them. Join me as I show you how to properly set goals and lay out a process for managing your insidious obstacle thoughts so they don’t stop you in your tracks and cause you to produce undesired results in your life.

This week, we’re talking about a concept that will help you rapidly get the results that you want in your life. Today, I want you to consider the difference between wanting to believe something and actually believing it. Join me on this episode to find out exactly what you need to do to make yourself strong enough to keep setting bigger goals and keep making your life so much more interesting…

Of all the things I teach, a concept that I get the most pushback on is “acceptance vs. indifference.” On this week’s thought-provoking episode, I want to explore this concept in depth and talk about accepting “difficult” things and circumstances, like past childhood abuse and rape, as well as the idea that life is 50% positive and 50% negative.

Over the course of this podcast, I’ve talked about The Self Coaching Model a lot. I’ve talked about applying The Model to any situation in your life to achieve a desired result. However, a lot of people still struggle to fully understand exactly how to bridge the gap between the circumstance and a wanted result. On this episode, we dive in deeper and talk about an advanced concept that I call The Aligned Model – The Model where the circumstance matches your result and how exactly to get there. I talk about the problem with attempting to live in a Model where you’re trying to get a result versus living in a Model that already has that result and how that difference can help you achieve your goal.

On this episode, I talk about the paradigm shift that needs to happen in order for you to become a person that you haven’t been before, the person that you imagine being. Join me to discover the process you can use to make this happen and get the results you’re looking for.

Today, I am excited to share with you teachings of one of my favorite authors, Jim Collins. Jim’s book, Good to Great has had a huge impact on my own life and business, and I want to share some of the lessons from this book on this episode. Join me as we look at topics like becoming great vs good, the power of having the right people in the right places in your life, how to examine and deal with raw facts, and how exactly you can become great.

When we think about making a decision about something, we are creating alternative futures. On this episode, we take a deep dive into the process of looking at making decisions and explore how you should consider analyzing your alternative futures. I also explain why you should never choose a negative future and how you can choose the future that will best serve you in achieving your goals and dreams.

This week, we take a deep dive into the topic of unconscious negativity that plagues so many of us and explore how labeling others as “negative” actually cultivates this insidious quality in ourselves. We also take a look at the importance of noticing the judgment you impart on others and how that affects your ability to enjoy more positivity-filled thoughts. Join me to find out how to gain an awareness of your unconscious negativity and how to navigate the tricky environment created by having that awareness in a way that actually serves you.

On this episode, I want to bring your awareness, from a different perspective, to how you treat yourself on a regular basis in order to help you uncover what ‘things’ you’re using on yourself to be the villain, or the predator, in your own life. Join me to find out how you can identify the villain within you that treats you terribly; learn to love that part of you and, at the same time, set clear boundaries.

This week, I revisit the concept of believing the thoughts that a future you, who already has what you want, would be thinking in order to reach any goal in life. I explain why it’s more important to commit to believing something than it is to actually achieve it and why so many people have trouble with this distinction. Listen in to discover how you can visit your future and create an unshakable commitment to believing in your dreams and getting to them no matter what.

Many of you ask me about the thoughts that I believe and practice on a regular basis. So today, I share ten new thoughts to believe and give you some background on why I think they are useful.

I share my thoughts on the lies most of us are taught on the topics of getting your feelings hurt, the results of hard work, earning money, negative emotions, winning, and many others, so you can hopefully begin questioning them in your own life.

On this episode of The Life Coach School, we take a look at three different ways you may be sabotaging yourself on a regular basis and how you can figure out exactly why you’re doing it. Listen in to find out how you can kick self-sabotage to the curb and take control of your life and your future.
