What did Sanford say to me when I was four to make me contemplate a future as a guard at Buckingham Palace? Listen to find out. This call hit me hard. Our caller today starts out by talking about a difficult job search during the pandemic, after an extended absence from the working world. But why the absence and what makes it complicated? F'ing patriarchy. Our caller has an abundance of resilience, and we get to help her with some of the other things. We know she is going to realize her dr...

How do you change your life but totally stay in control of everything? Doesn't work. Our caller is feeling a bit stuck but he is not willing to make any decisions because he can justify putting it off. It's amazing how easy it can be to justify stalling to ourselves. Will our caller make a decision and move out of his parent's place or will he stay put until his parents sell it? --- Toronto Alignment Life Coach Stephanie J. Marshall coaches an anonymous stranger!

Which is creepier, leeches or ticks? If leeches creep you out, why not move to Greece where you can swim in the leech free ocean? Problem solved. And what if you also really want amazing abs for the beach in Greece and every week you promise yourself that you will eat perfectly, but then chips and ice cream happen? Our caller is stuck in the "trying to try" cycle and can't find the right motivation. Lucky for us, he is much more interesting than someone who only cares about his abs, and iro...

Have you ever gotten so caught up in hating your job that you forgot to focus on what's next? If your day to day is draining it can be a real struggle to break free, and sometimes you can't even see great options that are right in front of you. Focusing on what you do want is going to make it so much easier. Our caller realizes that it is time to start looking beyond this gaggle of straight white men, because she is already in the process of making big changes. We identify a thought pattern...

Would you take the easy route if it was boring? Our caller is suffocating under the weight of other people's expectations and judgements, but she wants to break free. The thing is, the quest for autonomy is much more difficult when you aren't sure what you would do with the autonomy if it was suddenly granted to you. We discuss how she can reframe her thoughts when she is feeling self-conscious and insecure, and I try to convince her to push a little more out of her comfort zone and try rec...

Dating after divorce, the impact of overcoming unanticipated health emergencies, road rage, self-image, this episode has it all. He didn't know it was going to be on a podcast and he didn't expect to be coached so we meandered a little.

Our caller with the great laugh has been procrastinating on some boring but critical work forms because things might not turn out so well. She has forgotten to consider that things might turn out really well, and there are things that she can do to increase the likelihood of this. Our caller is able to easily apply the new approach to her attitude about dating, as she notices what she is focused on, and what narrative she is creating. Our minds look for evidence of what we believe to be tru...

If you don't actually want your goals all that much what's the point? Our caller begins the call with the "right" answers, and apparently her super-power is telling people what they want to hear, but it's obvious in her voice that she isn't really connecting with her goals. She is intelligent and driven and we want to help her figure out what she actually wants. Listen to our call as we uncover what might matter more to our caller than travelling, tea, or learning French. If your goals seem ...
