Send us a Text Message.Hello Friend,You're probably not as much of a “hot head” as I am. I have times when my rage-o-meter goes from zero to one-hundred so fast that I don't know what happened. Not only do I scare myself in those moments, but I also upset others. I want to do better, but I haven't known how to change. Recently, though, I've been discovering some tools that are helping. So, if you ever feel like your feelings can yank the steering wheel out of your hands and swerve you around recklessly, let me share a few thoughts.Feelings themselves aren't good or badI used to think being angry meant I'd failed, feeling sad meant I wasn't tough, and jealousy meant I was immature. I'm learning that feelings (as opposed to the actions I take based on those feelings) are just helpful information.An event happens and then we have reactions to it in the form of thoughts and feelings. The emotions part of the equation gives us information. This is a cheat sheet someone shared. Happy = Life is goodSad = I'm experiences a loss (big or small, real or imagined)Angry = I want something to be differentGuilt = I feel I should have behaved differently Shame = I feel that I be different as a person (A dangerous feeling)I love this explanation of anger because seeing it as a signal that I want something to be different prompts me to ask “What do I want to be different?”. And it feels empowering to think about what I do want (rather than just what I don't like), and then to ask for it.Name it to tame itNaming a feeling engages the “advanced” part of our brains which helps us get back into control. I don't mean we need to control how we feel, but that it helps us respond choicefully to the situation. It sounds simple to name an emotion but many times I have no idea what I'm feeling. I just know I don't like it. A couple of things are helping. JournalingTo get more in touch I've been journaling for the last couple of years. It's been so helpful that my husband, David, can tell if I've been disciplined about it or not. (I get crankier when I haven't been consistently processing life in a journal.) AppAnd a friend shared a free app called “How We Feel.” The app prompts me to check in a couple of times a day and choose from a list of emotions. It also allows me to enter what I'm doing, where I am, and who I'm with. I am not only learning how many different emotions I have in a day but also starting to see patterns so I can make shifts. If you've developed greater “emotional regulation,” I'd love to hear what has worked well for you!And if you're still struggling, I hope these tools bring you as much encouragement as they do for me.

Send us a Text Message.Hi Friend,Sometimes I look in the mirror and focus on the deepening wrinkles across my face. Other times I notice that I move slower on the tennis court than I used to. I imagine the future and what it will feel like to ride the rest of this curve. If you're like me, you may occasionally feel “blue” when you consider how little time you have here. Even if we are very fortunate, it won't be long until we're looking back on our nearly-completed lives and taking stock. I know what I hope I will be able to say at that time. I have a great relationship with my Creator and feel peaceful about what will come next.I've used my unique combination of resources, talents, skills, passions and experiences to make life better for others (especially those I'm closest to).I've had beautiful relationships and reveled in the joy of the journey. When I start to feel sad about having finite days, I try to remember that until my last breath I can still be useful. Thankfully wrinkles don't prevent me from sharing an encouraging word with a struggling friend or from handing my jacket to someone living on the street in the cold. But right now I long for clarity on just how to be maximally useful. I think having a sharper definition of that would help me organize my time, find satisfaction in a focussed pursuit, and see the difference I might make.For that reason, I'm going into the locker room for “halftime.” In sports, halftime is that pause at the midpoint of the game to assess how it's going. It's a break to make plans for playing the next period even better than the first.In life, as I take time “off the field,” I'll be meeting periodically (through Halftime Institute) with a small group of people who are asking a similar question, “How do I use what's at my disposal to make the impact I'm on this earth to create?”I wanted to share because as I take this break I don't plan to podcast as frequently. And I may write to you a little less often. But with your permission, I'd love to stay in touch. At a monthly(-ish) cadence, I'd like to share my journey, hear about yours, and continue learning with you. In the meantime, I hope you are thriving!With love,LisaGet uplifting reminders wherever you hang out:Connect with the host, Lisa Liguori:Website:https://lisaliguori.comEmail me: Lisa@AdviceColumn.comConnect with us at Advice Column:tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@advicecolumnp...Website:https://advicecolumn.com/Instagram:@advicecolumnpodFacebook:
Send us a Text Message.When Michaelangelo was asked how he created his Statue of David, he answered, “I just saw an angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.”And in From Strength to Strength, Arthur C. Brooks says you are thinking about it wrong if you view your life as an empty canvas on which you need to create. Instead, he says you are already a complete work of art. Your life's masterpiece emerges as you chip away everything that is not the essence of you. You may have a bucket list. And I'm a collector of experiences, too. I view life as a treasure hunt for new places, special people, and neat experiences. I believe in pursuing our dreams now. So I'm not ready to completely toss out my bucket list.But Brooks makes the point that if we think we have to add things to a bucket that starts out empty in order to have a fulfilling life, we can become frenzied. In that state we risk missing the joy of the journey we're on. Beyond that, we miss seeing that there's an angel inside already. YOU have been there all along. Today I'm reflecting on how I might differentiate between what part of my life is sculpture and which part is stone that I can chip away. How do you filter opportunities? How do you know when you've hit bedrock on who you are at your core? How do you slow down to enjoy the journey? Whatever your methods, here's to hoping you can always see a clear vision of the masterpiece that you are!Get uplifting reminders wherever you hang out:Connect with the host, Lisa Liguori:Website:https://lisaliguori.comEmail me: Lisa@AdviceColumn.comConnect with us at Advice Column:tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@advicecolumnp...Website:https://advicecolumn.com/Instagram:@advicecolumnpodFacebook: / theadvicecolumnpodcast YouTube: / @advicecolumn1
Send us a Text Message.Hello Friend,I once visited my doctor, Lee Rice, who is as much a mentor as my physician. I told him I felt like pieces of my life were falling apart. I was going through a romantic break up, I had eaten more pounds of french fries than produce in the preceding six months, and I felt lost career wise. One of Dr. Rice's best qualities is the way he listens; and his empathy alone is therapeutic. He let me explain my pessimistic outlook and then shared an encouraging observation that has stuck with me ever since. “In my years as a physician I have seen many people rebuild their lives from seeming ruin,” he said. “And it didn't take that long, either,” he added. “For example, one man had to declare bankruptcy, was going through a divorce, and was addicted to narcotics. He turned his life around and In just a few short years he was growing a new business, enjoying a strong relationship, and living sober. It is never too late.”From time-to-time I feel like I've dug myself into a hole. And every time I think about what Dr. Rice told me. I think to myself that if someone can completely remake their life in just a few years, I can certainly reverse the course and get on a better track. Friend, If you find yourself feeling hopeless about any aspect of your life today, I hope you will be encouraged that change is fully possible.With love,LisaGet uplifting reminders wherever you hang out:Connect with the host, Lisa Liguori:Website:https://lisaliguori.comEmail me: Lisa@AdviceColumn.comConnect with us at Advice Column:tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@advicecolumnp...Website:https://advicecolumn.com/Instagram:@advicecolumnpodFacebook: / theadvicecolumnpodcast YouTube: / @advicecolumn1
Hello Friend,In 2019 I visited Yellowstone National Park with my parents and sister. We hired a tour guide who had encyclopedic knowledge about its geysers, mudpots, bears, bison, and other marvels. At a scenic overlook where we hopped out of the car for a photo op, he nonchalantly said something surprising. Forest fires are good for nature.Pointing out the pinecones on a nearby tree, he told us they were “serotinous cones.” That type of cone can hang on a Pine for years, but the seeds won't be able to be released because the cones are encased in a resin. To be released, the material has to be melted away. That only happens when there is a forest fire. So there is a mechanism for rebirth triggered just when it is needed most. Our guide also explained that forest fires have many benefits. They clear away old brush to make room for the new. They remove the build-up of kindling, preventing a much larger blaze in the future. And they deliver nutrients back to the soil through their ashes.Have you ever felt a desire for something new to come into your life? I have. And I wonder if we can make room for that “new growth” by clearing out some of what is ready to be “upcycled.” Whether it's removing physical clutter, pruning an overly full calendar, or releasing burdensome expectations of ourselves, I have a sense that burning down some old growth will create fertile soil for something fresh while simultaneously nourishing what should stay. This spring(summer), I hope you enjoy a sense of roominess and ease.Get uplifting reminders wherever you hang out:Connect with the host, Lisa Liguori:Website:https://lisaliguori.comEmail me: Lisa@AdviceColumn.comConnect with us at Advice Column:tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@advicecolumnp...Website:https://advicecolumn.com/Instagram:@advicecolumnpodFacebook: / theadvicecolumnpodcast YouTube: / @advicecolumn1

Hello Friend!This is a bi-weekly episode of the newsletter!Do you sometimes sit with a group of friends as they trade tales of their big adventures? And do you ever think to yourself, “My life is not that splashy?”I've always loved listening to great speakers. When I was a kid, my dad would take me for a long drive every Saturday morning in his little red Alfa Romeo convertible. On the way he'd play cassette tapes of inspirational keynote speeches by world-class orators.Many times those people had dramatic stories of overcoming enormous odds or achieving great feats. The drama of their circumstances made their points powerfully. For a long time, I believed that without something like a near-death experience or achieving a world record in base jumping, I lacked compelling stories and the authority to share them.Then, on a whim one afternoon, I took a storytelling workshop. A woman named Ann marie taught it in a small, crowded, room at a downtown club with a speakeasy vibe. (Yep, you actually had to pull a hidden lever that opened a trap door to get in.) At that class I got to listen to one story from each participant. Those stories were not about epic experiences like escaping an erupting volcano or getting invited to dinner with the Dalai Lama. They were descriptions of the everyday experience of being human. They were about the regret of letting a friend down, the guilt of stealing a five dollar bill from a father's wallet as an eight-year-old, and the teacher who helped a woman realize that she had talent back when she was just a little girl. They were about normal life and they were POWERFUL!Think of a story that has shaped you. It's likely it was simple, and yet it's become an important part of you. Hearing someone tell the truth about their experience is an honor, isn't it? Today I hope you're encouraged that your stories are valuable gifts with which you can impact other people in special ways. Your experiences, your learning, and your very being make a profound difference in the world. Thank you for that!With love,LisaThe purpose of Advice Column is to share uplifting reminders to connect with the best in yourself, others, and the world.Let's Stay connected:Subscribe to our written newsletter to receive bi-monthly inspiration directly in your inbox: AdviceColumn.com/SubscribeConnect with the host, Lisa Liguori:Website: https://lisaliguori.comConnect with us at Advice Column:Website: https://advicecolumn.com/Instagram: @advicecolumnpodFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheAdviceColumnPodcastYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChYmoafMFOeL7HCNWrXPkJQ Advice Column is a nonprofit, 501(C)3 and through our podcast and newsletters, my mission is to help you connect with the best in yourself, others, and the world.
Welcome to the Audio version of the newsletter 'Listening is Honoring'!Have you read The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe? In one scene of that wonderful book, four children are living with a professor they've only just met. The siblings were sent to his home in the English countryside during Operation Pied Piper which relocated kids away from cities being bombed during World War II.Two of the children, Peter and Susan, are concerned that their little sister, Lucy, has lost the ability to discern reality from imagination. They go to the professor to ask him what they should do. What transpires is a masterclass in honoring others through listening. “So they went and knocked at the study door, and the Professor said “Come in,” and got up and found chairs for them and said he was quite at their disposal. Then he sat listening to them with the tips of his fingers pressed together and never interrupting, till they had finished the whole story. After that he said nothing for quite a long time. Then he cleared his throat and said the last thing either of them expected: “How do you know,” he asked, “that your sister's story is not true?”Is the professor a class act, or what? I reflect on what he did. 1.He made time for them. The professor invited the children into his study, welcoming them with his words and actions. I imagine how special the small children must have felt when the professor found chairs for them. 2. He allowed them to speak. The professor listened intently, giving the children his focussed attention. He did not interrupt. I picture the way all of us, and especially young kids, can ramble when we are sharing something excitedly. I can imagine the kids doing this and the professor not rushing them, but allowing them to completely finish. 3. He paused. The professor didn't jump in the minute it was his turn. He was thoughtful and patient. 4.He asked a thoughtful question.The professor showed respect to the children by asking them a question rather than telling them what to do. He also honored the little girl whose mental health was being questioned, by giving her the benefit of the doubt that she was telling the truth.I want to be more like the professor, don't you?Make time. Listen carefully. Take it slow. Ask thoughtful questions that respect all who are involved. That's a beautiful model. Name, what is one of your favorite lessons from a real or fictional story in your life? I'd love to hear about it!With love,Lisa Get uplifting reminders wherever you hang out:Connect with the host, Lisa Liguori: Website:https://lisaliguori.com Email me: Lisa@AdviceColumn.comConnect with us at Advice Column: Website:https://advicecolumn.com/ Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/advicecolumnpod?igsh=OGQ5ZDc2ODk2ZA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/74960330/ Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/TheAdviceColumnPodcast YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChYmoafMFOeL7HCNWrXPkJQ TikTok:
There was a frog who dreamed of becoming a prince. He'd imagine THE kiss, the transformation, the people he'd rein over when he had legs, and the glory he'd enjoy. One day a princess finally laid one on him, and BINGO!, he got his wish. In a swirl of sparkling dust he transformed into a regal human housed in a royal palace.But there was a problem.That frog ended up hating his new life. The palace air was dry compared to his old pond. The royal robes were itchy. The crown was cumbersome, and the job was bor-ing. Worse yet, the princess was a kind of a “pill.” All day long that poor frog just longed to be back playing in the mud. This twist on the ending to a would be happily-ever-after fairytale was the gist of an amusing poem I read a long time ago. I've never been able to find it again, but I've thought back on it often. You probably believe there's truth in the concept that “the grass is always greener,” but doesn't the frog story vividly bring it to life?Today I'm reminded of the gloriousness of my own “muddy pond.” I hope you're loving yours as well!What is your favorite thing about your current life circumstances?

Welcome to the audio version of Lisa Liguori's Advice Column Newsletter. If you're like us, it's sometimes easier to listen to something than to read it. In this recording Lisa reads the following newsletter.There is a group of well-dressed people at a grand banquet hall. The decor is gorgeous and there are bountiful plates of delicious food in front them. The scent of savory dishes floats through the air and there are decorative plates with sweet treats piled high.But upon inspection there is a problem. The guests seated at the table all have their wrists bound to the table with heavy steel cuffs. They have enormous long spoons at their fingertips, but with their arms pinned down they cannot pivot the long instruments at an angle to pick up food from their plates. They cannot eat. They are frustrated and hungry, in a form of hell.There is another table in what might be conceived of as heaven. The same type of well-coiffed revelers sit at a table loaded with culinary delights. The strange thing is that these men and women also have their hands shackled; but somehow they are eating and enjoying themselves. There are warm sounds of conversation and laughter rising up.How strange, you think, wondering how this could be. You draw further into the scene to investigate and you see that in this second group each person is using his or her long spoon to feed the person across the table from them. By feeding one another they can make the long spoons work. I had forgotten about this story, attributed to Rabbi Haim, until I was setting the table for Thanksgiving this year. Today I'm pondering it. It's such a neat dynamic that when we give, we cannot help but receive. I hope in this season of gifting, the emotional and physical gifts you send out return to you many fold and fill you with joy.With love,Lisa
You may have seen hypnotherapy on a stage or heard about its use for smoking cessation. But how does hypnotherapy really work? Could it help you? Is it safe? Why are some religious traditions opposed to it? We dive into all of these topics with one of our very own panel in this episode. Delve into Brad Tunis' unique profession as we unpack preconceived notions about hypnosis, learn tools for deepening our own connections to our mental state. In this conversation we also discuss how to manage anxiety, bolster personal growth, and even enhance performance.

Standing outside the East Gate of San Quentin Prison at 9:22 a.m. on November 16, I was shivering and impatient for my tour to start. I was dressed in all black because I wasn't allowed to wear denim, gray, blue, lime green, or orange. I couldn't bring any electronics or wear jewelry, either. Along with several other business leaders in a group called Young Presidents' Organization (YPO), I was getting checked in when one of our guides shouted excitedly. “The man coming out right now is being released after twenty-seven years in prison!” She motioned to a woman standing about 50 yards from us. “That's his wife and she has been here since 5 a.m. waiting for him to come out.” The guide had barely finished her sentence when a van pulled through the gate and an officer guided out a man in a baggy, light-gray sweat suit. The guard removed his handcuffs. The man in gray walked toward his wife as she leaped toward him in giant ecstatic bounds, hands waving back and forth over her head, hooting in celebration. They kissed and hugged. Our group was silent. Tears welled up in my eyes as I thought about how it might feel to be on this side of the wall after twenty-seven years of being confined. During part of the prison tour, I listened to the stories of about a dozen men who went through a program called the Victim Offender Education Group (VOEG). During those conversations I sat next to a convicted murderer, our elbows touching. As he shared the sadness and regret he feels for the woman whose life he took, he cried. He also shared about his own childhood traumas and spoke about his hopes for the future. As I listened to the men's stories, two things struck me. The process they went through in the program - meeting consistently, for years, with a trusted circle of peers to bravely do deep work on themselves - is remarkably similar to the small group work we do in YPO in small groups of C-Suite executives. I could easily be the one who is behind bars. I like to think that I'm nothing like the person who committed a violent act while in a rage or the one who chose to drive drunk and kill someone. But I have lost control in anger and I have done foolish things like texting when I was driving. Those situations could have ended in a disaster if I was less fortunate. I am left with the feeling that there is a thin wall between the outside and the inside of a prison. I feel lucky that I'm on the outside. And I admire the brave people inside who choose to do the work daily to become better versions of themselves. Their accountability reassures me, and their hope inspires me. Please don't hear this as me wanting to minimize the horrific pain caused by the violent choices people make. We can each decide, in every moment, how we will act. There is no explaining away decisions that harm others. My realization is just that I believe hope and growth can happen anywhere. I want to be humble like the men I met in the prison so I can experience it. Earlier this month the Advice Column team shared some ideas for practicing gratitude during the month of Thanksgiving. In my household, we decided to fill out a sticky note each day with something we're grateful for. The night I came home from San Quentin, my sticky note had just one word, “Freedom.” | I hope this email finds you reveling in your freedom. With love, Lisa
