Life Lesson/Truth #1: Suffering is Self-Inflicted
As a life coach, I've learned that most pain and suffering -- emotional, mental, spiritual pain -- isn't due to the life event that hurt us. It's based on what we think about the thing that hurt us. In short, our thoughts can lead us to a state of suffering. I also explore past, present, and future, and the importance of present reality.
* CAVEAT: Some life events cause trauma, and that trauma should be worked through with a trusted therapist. Life coaching is not psychotherapy or counseling. Seek these or other professional services if needed.
Life Lesson/Truth #2: You Always Know if Something’s Wrong for You

Life Lesson/Truth #3: There’s No REAL Reason Why You Can’t, Only Excuses
Bringing in some truth tellin' in this life lesson. I hear so often from coaching clients that they REALLY want "x" thing to happen in their lives but they can't because they need to wait until "y" occurs first. In this video, I'll show you that that isn't actually true -- you're just approaching it from the wrong place.

Life Lesson/Truth #6: You’re the Boss of You (A.K.A. It’s Nobody Else’s Fault)
YOU ARE THE BOSS OF YOU! Which is amazing and so, so powerful when you finally embrace it. But it also means your life is your responsibility. In short: it's nobody else's fault. The easy way out is blame someone else or a situation that happened to you as the root cause of why your life isn't where you want it to be. The REAL way out is to understand that you -- and only you -- are the master of your own destiny. Being the captain of your own ship also means you might need to check yourself to see if there's a particular life story you've been hanging onto with a vice-like death grip. Just sayin'.
Life Lesson/Truth #7: Your Brain is Your Enemy

In this Life Lesson I've Learned That I Now Know to Be True, I will show you how you can learn to trust your decision-making, and offer you a type of lovingkindness meditation you can do that will help.
