In this episode of the Decide Your Legacy podcast, we dive deep into the transformative world of coaching, comparing and contrasting it with counseling. Reflecting on my personal journey, I share how the evolution from a controlled, teaching-centric approach to a more liberating, coaching-oriented mindset has brought immense joy and fulfillment into my life and the lives of those I work with. We are joined by Adam, also known by the affectionate nickname 'Lloyd', a valued team member of Decide Your Legacy, to explore the significant impact of coaching through storytelling and real-life experiences. As a host and a seasoned professional with 25 years of experience in both coaching and therapy, we discuss the four main differences between coaching and counseling: the coach's role as a partner, coaching's emphasis on thriving and future potential, its action-driven approach, and the self-improvement and accountability it fosters. Together with Lloyd, we discuss actionable insights for listeners to embrace change, face their fears, and pursue a life of purpose and transformation. This episode is not just about listening; it's an invitation to step into uncomfortable territories that promise growth, learning, and ultimately, living a legacy today.00:00 Journey to Joy: Embracing Coaching Over Counseling01:25 The Essence of Coaching: A Personal and Professional Transformation02:51 Facing Fears: The Path to Personal Growth04:34 Coaching vs. Counseling: Unpacking the Differences12:07 Introducing Adam Lutes: A New Chapter in Decide Your Legacy15:29 Envisioning the Future: Setting Goals and Breaking Habits24:03 The Unforgettable Diet Story24:33 The Onion Lunch: A Diet Disaster26:13 Exploring Coaching: Goals and Growth27:23 Drumming Dreams: Setting Personal Goals28:06 The Art of Drumming: Expression and Problem Solving32:04 Coaching vs. Counseling: Action and Accountability32:20 Shatterproof Yourself: Steps to Mental Health33:25 The Essence of Coaching: Action-Oriented Growth35:31 The Power of Courage and Confidence in Coaching41:27 Insights and Actions: The Coaching Difference44:49 Taking Emotional Risks: The Path to TransformationBe sure to follow me on Instagram @adamgraggResources:Choosing a Great Coach (or Counselor) (blog article)Why I Started Decide Your Legacy (blog article)If you found this information helpful, SUBSCRIBE TODAY and you'll receive our Free Video & Workbook Shatterproof Yourself: 7 Small Steps to a Giant Leap in Your Mental Health. Get free content to start your legacy journeyDecide Your Legacy Corporate & Group WorkshopsThanks for listening, be sure to subscribe and leave us a review!Be sure to follow me on Instagram @adamgragg Connect with Decide Your Legacy! Adam Gragg is a Legacy Coach, Blogger, Podcaster, Speaker, & Mental Health Professional for nearly 25 years.

Today we are going delve into the often misunderstood concept of life balance. We are going to challenge the common belief that life balance is unattainable, proposing instead a realistic approach to achieving it. We will discuss the seven essential areas of life: spiritual, family, health and self-care, intellectual, social and fun, career and business, and financial. By sharing personal stories and engaging with the struggles I face, I aim to demonstrate the importance of assessing and intentionally adjusting these areas. This episode not only provides practical tools for self-assessment but also encourages setting achievable goals aligned with the legacy listeners aspire to leave. It's a call to action for listeners to face their fears, embrace uncomfortable growth, and ultimately seek a balanced life that reflects their true values and aspirations.02:02 Personal Struggles and the Power of Self-Assessment03:09 Facing Fears and Embracing Uncomfortable Growth05:02 The Essential Life Areas for a Balanced Life12:05 Practical Steps to Assess and Improve Your Life Balance18:34 The Legacy You Leave: A Guide to Self-Assessment22:04 Overcoming Enemies of a Successful Life Assessment24:38 Closing Thoughts and Next StepsBe sure to follow me on Instagram @adamgraggResources:12 Life Balance Tips (post) by Adam GraggDYL Tree & Life WheelIf you found this information helpful, SUBSCRIBE TODAY and you'll receive our Free Video & Workbook Shatterproof Yourself: 7 Small Steps to a Giant Leap in Your Mental Health. Get free content to start your legacy journeyDecide Your Legacy Corporate & Group WorkshopsThanks for listening, be sure to subscribe and leave us a review!Be sure to follow me on Instagram @adamgragg Connect with Decide Your Legacy! Adam Gragg is a Legacy Coach, Blogger, Podcaster, Speaker, & Mental Health Professional for nearly 25 years.
