Coach Angie C

Scene:  It's dinner time.  You are frantically trying to get something quick, easy, and somewhat healthy on the table for your family.  You are snacking mindlessly as you're prepping because you're so hungry.  You scarf down dinner while holding a baby who is trying to pull your hair, grab your fork, or put their fingers in your mouth.  Dinnertime is cray-cray.  Sound familiar?  Or am I alone with the crazy dinnertime routine?   As a coach, I've had many conversations, about the scenario I described.  Dinnertime is sometimes out of control.  And to be quite honest, I think women feel really sad about it.  Especially, since they don't always have this picture-perfect sit-down dinner with everyone at the table at the same time.  And, I think women feel bad because this is a mealtime that isn't as mindful as others.  Are any of them really mindful?  Mindful eating is a very important skill that is so worth cultivat...

Are you working on a goal that's important to you? When you share it with others, does it feel like they don't get it?  Or, have you in the past, had an area in your life you wanted to improve, and someone told you it would be a good idea to improve it, then you started to have success in that area, and they started to "hate" on you?  What I mean by hate is that someone starts to speak negatively towards what you are working on.  For example, "You think you are better than everyone else," kind of attitude.  Following me? This "hate" is very common when it comes to any goal you are working on.  Especially in weight loss, or even starting a business. When you don't get the support your need, it can be very discouraging to move forward.  I think as humans, we want to please others.  We want people to like us.  We want to feel included.  We want to belong.  Brene Brown has a lot to say about "belonging."  A big part of a healthy journey...
