117, Part 1: How the feelings + self-talk we choose can propel us forward or keep us stuck

Today we're shaking it up and sharing something very special with you: an exclusive listen inside an Incubator mastermind Q&A session. 

In Part 1 of this recorded conversation, we're diving into the concept of choosing our feelings (yes, choosing), and how the self-talk we opt for based on those feelings — whether it's positive self-talk or negative self-talk — correlates directly to the actions we take and the outcomes we experience in life and business. 

We often don’t think of our feelings as things we choose. Rather, we think of them as things that kind of just happen to us. 

But I was listening to The Life Coach School podcast with Brooke Castillo, and she made a really powerful distinction inside of this concept of choice that I think will be really valuable for our listeners. 

So have a listen and let me know what you think!  

What you’ll learn in this episode:

• What it means to choose our feelings
• How feelings our feelings and the resulting self-talk affect outcomes
• Why you have to let go of perfectionism if you’re going to make any progress
• Why I think it’s great to get honest about your disappointment
