Join Me for a Week of Transformation: Because Who Doesn’t Love Happy? 😄
Ready to kick off a week of transformation?
Today, we're diving into a super fun and enlightening coaching journey right here on the Choosing Happy Podcast!
🎉 Yep, it's International Coaching Week, and we’re all about helping you break free from those pesky patterns that keep popping up like an unwanted game of whack-a-mole. I’m inviting you to get cosy, close your eyes, and think about that one behaviour or situation that just won’t take a hint and leave you alone. We’ll explore your feelings, your thoughts, and even how that little voice in your head likes to play the rerun game.
So grab your metaphorical popcorn because this week, we’re flipping the script on those repeating patterns, one episode at a time! 🌟
Our first day is all about awareness. We’re diving deep into the heart of our habits and behaviours that seem to cling on like a stubborn sock in the dryer.
Heather invites us to visualise the last time we encountered one of these patterns. Who was there? How did we feel?
It’s like a personal spotlight on our lives, helping us see things clearly. We’re encouraged to become aware of our thoughts and feelings, and even to notice what’s happening in our bodies—because let’s face it, our bodies often have a lot to say!
And here’s a fun twist: Heather reminds us that our version of events is just one of many. Just like in a movie where different characters see the same scene in totally different ways, our perceptions can shape our reality. So, let’s take notes, folks!
Tomorrow, we’ll dig into how we can reframe these experiences and start shifting those patterns for good. It’s time to choose happy and embrace the journey ahead!
Takeaways:
- In this episode, Heather encourages us to dive deep into our repeating patterns and recognise their presence in our lives.
- We embark on a seven-day coaching journey to shift those pesky patterns that seem to haunt us like a bad sequel.
- Today's focus on awareness helps us identify those stubborn behaviours that just won't quit, no matter how hard we try.
- Heather reminds us that our perception is just one version of reality, so it's time to explore new perspectives on our issues.
- Writing down our patterns in detail can help illuminate the feelings and thoughts tied to them, giving us a clearer path forward.
- Tomorrow, we're diving into reframing our thoughts and changing the lens on these repeating patterns, so stay tuned for the fun!

Transcript
Hello and welcome to the Choosing Happy Podcast.
Speaker A:Well, first, apologize for my absence.
Speaker A:For the last couple of weeks, I've been really busy with some coaching and I just did not find the time to record the episodes.
Speaker A:And I'd rather record a quality episode than do something in a rush.
Speaker A:So to make up for that, I am recording seven days of a coaching journey.
Speaker A:It's International Coaching Week on the Choosing Happy Podcast, and over the next seven days, I'm going to guide you through a powerful coaching journey designed to help you break free from a repeating pattern or problem that's been holding you back.
Speaker A:And yes, choose a biggie if you want to, and let's get that stuff shifted.
Speaker A:So stay tuned today and for the next seven days on the Choosing Happy Podcast.
Speaker A:Hello and welcome to the Choosing Happy Podcast and day one of the International Coaching Week.
Speaker A:And today we're focusing on awareness.
Speaker A:And I'd invite you to think of a situation or behavior, behavior that keeps repeating in your life, something you seem like you can't shift.
Speaker A:It doesn't matter what you want to do, it seems to stick.
Speaker A:And today is about identifying it.
Speaker A:Just taking a moment to close your eyes and picturing the last time this happened and just notice where you were, who else was there, and how did it make you feel.
Speaker A:I don't want you to stay there too long.
Speaker A:It's just to become aware of it and to become aware of the situation.
Speaker A:And when you look, when you're feeling into your body, just notice where it is in your body, whether you get a picture as well.
Speaker A:If you get the picture, what does it look like?
Speaker A:Is it bright?
Speaker A:Is it dark?
Speaker A:Do you get heavy feeling with it?
Speaker A:Is there a sound that you associate with it?
Speaker A:Just before that pattern happens, before you go into that repeating pattern behaviors, ask yourself, what do you believe about yourself or the world when that pattern happens?
Speaker A:And if it's a pattern that happens over time, just take a moment to notice the process, notice the strategy that you're running for yourself in terms of allowing this to happen.
Speaker A:What's the repeated thoughts?
Speaker A:What are the repeating feelings?
Speaker A:Do you spiral downwards?
Speaker A:What happens within your mind and then what happens outside?
Speaker A:Just remember the map is not the territory.
Speaker A:And what we mean by that is that your perception is just one version of reality.
Speaker A:So, for instance, example I love to use is if there's a robbery in a bank, for instance, or a big sort of event that happens in the world, three different people will possibly have three different versions and three different opinions on what happened, you know, at a football match or a rugby match that if there's a foul, there are multiple versions of what actually happened.
Speaker A:And that's why we have the the video now to show what really happened.
Speaker A:The video, if you like, is the territory.
Speaker A:The our interpretation of what happened without the video is the map.
Speaker A:And this week we're going to explore how to shift that map.
Speaker A:Write down your pattern, describe it in detail.
Speaker A:Notice how it feels in your body.
Speaker A:Notice any pictures, sounds, tastes, anything that's related to it.
Speaker A:Even when you're picturing it, does it have a frame?
Speaker A:Notice whether it's dark or light, whether the feelings are heavy, is there colour?
Speaker A:Note as much detail as possible without getting too caught up in the event.
Speaker A:And tomorrow we'll start to unravel it.
Speaker A:And I'll see you again tomorrow for reframing and changing the lens on that repeating pattern.
Speaker A:Bye for now.
Speaker A:Thank you so much for taking the time to listen to this episode.
Speaker A:If you enjoyed it or think it would be valuable to others, please do share.
Speaker A:And if you really enjoyed it, please leave me a review.
Speaker A:It really helps the podcast.
Speaker A:All of the links are in the show notes and I look forward to seeing you next week on the Choosing Happy Podcast.
