Podcasts about live your courageous life

In this episode, Kate Swoboda and I discuss the four main fear-based patterns that we all have, how to identify them, and how to disrupt them so we can live a more courageous life. Kate Swoboda is creator of YourCourageousLife.com, Director of the Courageous Living Coach Certification, and author of The Courage Habit: How to Accept Your Fears, Release the Past, and Live Your Courageous Life. She helps individuals, teams, and companies see where old, fear-based habits have kept people stuck or started to limit what's possible for an organization, and then start creating more courageous lives by getting into “the courage habit,” a four-part process for behavioral and organizational change. Kate has appeared in MindBodyGreen, Entrepreneur, USA Today, Forbes, Lifetime Moms, The Intelligent Optimist, Business Insider, and more, and her website Your Courageous Life was named a top-50 blog for happiness by Greatist. She's spoken at conferences and seminars on the topic of courage as it relates to personal development, releasing overwhelm, business and marketing, money mindset, wellness, increasing emotional resilience, and healthy goal-setting using habit-formation techniques. In this episode, we discuss: ·      How courage can look differently for all of us and that it doesn't always live in big, flashy, actions. ·      Our tendency to see our patterns as part of our identity vs. learned behavior. ·      The cue-routine-reward loop and how it can build fear-based habits. ·      Which part of the loop we need to change in order to change our habits. ·      How to use discernment to identify which habit loops are out of integrity with who we are. ·      The four main fear routines – perfectionism, people pleasing, pessimism, and self-sabotage. ·      Different ways we can access the body and be present to help us disrupt a routine. ·      What it means to listen without attachment. ·      The importance of recognizing and releasing our emotions so we can get to clear thinking. ·      How involving other people in our life is more courageous than doing it on your own. ·      And finally, the importance of realizing discomfort won't kill you.

In 2012, Kate was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease and for the most part, doctors weren’t particularly optimistic about how she could improve her quality of life. Kate was living in the no-man’s land of having received a diagnosis, but nothing was relieving her symptoms.  It took her a few years to find out what the combination of things would be that that would get her system working again. In 2015, Kate began training for her first triathlon, following her fist success a few months, later she had set her sights on doing an half-Ironman! Training for Kate was really intense, and she often found it frustrating, because she felt sick and fatigued more often than other athletes, it was also taking her longer to recovery. Nonetheless, she persisted, and for Kate her goal of finishing a half-Ironman was her way of saying to the world that she was in charge of her body.  Kate made the decision that it was all about her mindset and deciding to make the conscious choices to practice courage even after setbacks. During this podcast, Kate will teach you how to change your old patterns of self-doubt and create new courageous habits, which is turn will help you lead a more courageous life. Kate will share more detail about the powerful principles of habit-formation, psychological courage and emotional resilience.

Oftentimes we try to deal with fear in three ways: (1) avoid or ignore, (2) please or placate it, (3) attack it.When we start to feel fear we usually resort to a habit that we've learned to try to cope for a short-term reward, whatever reduces stress. These habits are perfectionism, people pleasing, pessimism, and self-sabotage.With the work that Kate does, she helps you to rework how you respond to events that happen. Instead of a fear-based habit that gets you short term results, she helps her clients choose a courage-based habit that gets them long term rewards.

#073 — Building the Courage Habit There’s nothing wrong with fear in and of itself. The problem is when we respond with fear-based habits like perfectionism or self-sabotage and get stuck in our fear. Kate Swoboda has built her coaching practice on the principle that these fear-based habits can be replaced with courage-based behaviors, that we can be afraid and do it anyway. And responding differently to the fear is what facilitates real transformation.  So, how do we go about building this courage habit? Today, Kate joins me to explain how she created her coaching business and why she designed the Courageous Living Coach Certification program. She shares the inspiration for her book, The Courage Habit, outlining the 4 courage-based behaviors you can cultivate in daily life. I ask Kate about the frustrating time she spent working with a fertility specialist, and she speaks to her surprise at finally getting pregnant without medical intervention. Listen in for Kate’s insight on adopting a particular parenting philosophy and learn how to approach fear as part of the process—and foster the courage habit in your own life!  FULL SHOW NOTES Get the complete show notes with episode quotes, photos, and time stamps at http://www.startuppregnant.com/073.

This week on the show, I’m exploring the 4 pillars of joy: Inspiration, Mindfulness, Action, and Fun. If you’ve been listening awhile, you know that I think of joy as a wayfinding emotion. I have seen joy dance with people, reach out for people, even when they are in their darkest times or most difficult times. Joy can look like a tiny inkling of hope, a little nudge to call a friend or a doctor; joy looks like that second in your life, like several guests and so many of my clients have sited - that you know that there is “more” to your life than whatever your current crappy circumstances are. That you know you want more, desire more, that you personally are meant for more than what you’re experiencing right now.   This week we’ll look at one of the quotes that inspired my show, and I’m going deeper with it around HOW to find more joy. What I’ve seen in the fact that joy is a choice is that there’s more to it. Joy can be lived out in multiple ways. I see that there are patterns in how I’ve danced with joy in my life, and how I’ve seen joy be jump started in other people’s lives. That part is fascinating. I’m focusing on my favorite four patterns today, the ones I’ve started calling the four tenets or four pillars of joy. The four pillars are: 1. Inspiration 2. Mindfulness 3. Action 4.

When I first started my business as an entrepreneur I quickly learned there were A LOT of fears I would encounter. Everything from being seen, presenting and teaching, to looking at my relationship to money, charging from my services, leading a webinar for the first time ~ there was so much that made me want to run away and hide.  If only I had Kate's new book,The Courage Habit, when I started this wild journey of following my heart...!  But luckily, I did have the support of people I loved, and I was able to call upon my courage, and face many of my fears. In this conversation Kate shares about the research behind our fears and what holds us back from living courageously. She also shares a four part process for courage, and the fears she still faces today.  This is a great episode for all you entrepreneurs, coaches and writers, as we both share our experiences of growing a team and publishing a book. In this episode we discussed: Kate's personal journey with perfectionism, change, and creating her business What Kate has learned about courage and fear The common places Kate sees people get stuck Kate's four-part process for courage More about her newly released book, The Courage Habit The journey of releasing a book (we both share our stories) and Kate's current growing edge "Your fear is a wound and it just wants to heal. The more you can offer opportunities for healing to your fear instead of trying to push it away or telling it to shut up, the more it heals. And the more you will see that it just says things when it's afraid."  Stay in Touch with Kate: Web Instagram FB Community Kate Swoboda is creator of YourCourageousLife.com, Director of the Courageous Living Coach Certification at TribeCLCC.com and author of The Courage Habit: How to Accept Your Fears, Release the Past, and Live Your Courageous Life.

Episode Summary: Courage isn’t a topic that I’ve talked about a lot on this show, but after learning a little more about the work that Kate Swoboda is doing, I was excited to invite her on the show. One of the things I really want to do on the Working Parent Resource Podcast is pull back the curtains on what’s REALLY motivating our behavior as working parents. I see a lot of solutions out there to help overwhelmed working parents, but a lot of them only address the surface level of the complex issues that parents are facing. Today Kate and I are diving much deeper into what really holds people back from pursuing a life that feels really GOOD for them. We talk about the reality of establishing new habits, and how our habits really are the foundation of the life we live. Kate not only offers some really interesting insights, but she also offers very practical action steps for you to take as you begin to implement these things into your own life. Kate Swoboda is the creator of YourCourageousLife.com, Director of the Courageous Living Coach Certification at TribeCLCC.com, and author of the book, The Courage Habit. Her work has appeared in USA Today, Forbes, Entrepreneur, MindBodyGreen, and more. The Courage Habit discusses the connection between the psychology of courage and the neuropsychology of habit-formation, and the tools can be used in leadership, parenting, with creativity, and more.  Show Notes:  http://workingparentresource.com/54 Resources & Links Mentioned in this Episode: Kate Swoboda Website Kate Swoboda Facebook Kate Swoboda Instagram The Courage Habit: How to Accept Your Fears, Release the Past, and Live Your Courageous Life by Kate Swoboda Avoid These Risks of Being a Perfect Parent When Things Fall Apart: Heart Advice for Difficult Times by Pema Chodron Burnout Rescue Plan Deliberate Life Challenge Working Parent Resource Website About the Working Parent Resource: Welcome to the Working Parent Resource Podcast.

"Like - this is my life and I got shit to do...like good shit to do. Good, awesome, amazing things that I'm excited to do and I'm doing them and that's that." ~ Kate Courageous Meet Kate Kate Swoboda is creator of YourCourageousLife.com, Director of the Courageous Living Coach Certification at TribeCLCC.com and author of The Courage Habit: How to Accept Your Fears, Release the Past, and Live Your Courageous Life.

She’s spoken at conferences and seminars on the topic of courage as it relates to personal development, releasing overwhelm, business and marketing, money mindset, wellness, increasing emotional resilience, and healthy goal-setting using habit-formation techniques. My fave moments from this conversation: I mean...first of all, Kate Courageous was my very first life coach EVER and she taught me a personal growth lesson having to do with tight pants and I've got to tell you...I've carried that lesson with me years later still! And I am SO STINKING EXCITED + PROUD of her on the release of her very first book, The Courage Habit. How fear-based behaviors become fear-based habits and what we can stop that shit and practice courage-based habits instead. Kate's journey through an auto-immune diagnosis all while thinking...I'm doing the right things SO WHY AM I SICK? The hard-won courage and knowing when you're able to say - it's ok - I'll get to the other side. How the shadow side of working on our 'stuff' can show up in relationships and boundaries. The four predominant ways fear shows up for us. I especially love that Kate takes us through a super practical and relatable example of how to practice The Courage Habit when needing to have an uncomfortable conversation with a close friend. How short-term "rewards" like a decrease in stress is a fear-based way of how we can self-sabotage our long-term goals and desires. (

Kate Swoboda is joining me today to celebrate the release of her brand new book, The Courage Habit: How to Accept Your Fears, Release the Past, and Live Your Courageous Life. Kate (who is also known as Kate Courageous) is a life coach, the founder of Courageous Living Coach Certification, and Your Courageous Life. And, I’ve had the pleasure of working with her previously as a mentor in her coaching certification program. Kate’s work has been multifaceted around courage and fear, and her path to becoming a published author is inspiring. After having her book proposal accepted, she came to the realization that she wanted to go deeper on the questions of how we develop courage, and what holds us back from acting courageously. She asked her publisher if she could change up the focus of the book (they said yes!) and she created a book that brings in neuroscience, behavioral psychology, and other fields to develop the framework for The Courage Habit. In this episode, Kate Swoboda and I talk about: Her new book, The Courage Habit  Her road to becoming a published author, along with her advice to anyone wishing to get a book published (keep trying) How she proposed a new angle on the book, after the proposal was accepted How to start practicing courage based behaviors and get “unstuck” Experiencing fear, and practicing mindfulness to recognize that you’re experiencing fear, while also stepping back to observe your own “stress responses” The Inner Critic, and the ways that the Inner Critic counteracts courage: o Perfectionism o People Pleasing o Sabotage o Pessimism That we need to work with (instead of against) the Inner Critic, by meeting him/her with unconditional love and acceptance The role of community in developing courage The question of “what if courage could be easy.” Resources The Courage Habit: How to Accept Your Fears, Release the Past, and Live Your Courageous Life by Kate Swoboda on Amazon Courageous Living Coach Certification - CLCC Kate Swoboda’s site: Your Courageous Life Kate Swoboda on past Jump Start Your Joy episodes: Kate Swoboda on “Courage as a Path to Healing (Episode 8, Season 1) The Crossroads of Courage and Creating Habits with guest Kate Courageous (Episode 80, Season 2) Season Two Finale: A Roundtable on Joy, Finding Inspiration, and Self Care in Difficult Times (Episode 101, Season 2)
