Exciting news about a fun addition to the podcast this season.

First episode launches Thursday, November 4, 2021

This brief bonus episode talks a little about how perfectionism can keep you from being, well, you. 

Hello Listener!

While I'm taking a short break from publishing, I'm happily working on new episodes for Season 3.

This episode is making a reappearance and is one of the most popular from the 1st season. Enjoy and thanks for listening!

In this episode Krista shares what she's learned and been working on over the past year. Why now? It's her birthday month and she likes the opportunity to reflect and look ahead at this time.

We'd love to hear what you've been working on - feel free to email your experiences and learning to: krista@kristaoverlycoaching.com

Feeling urgency to make a decision? Or has overwhelm got you frantically making choices? 

Let's take a few minutes to talk about slowing down - just a little. 

In this episode I share something I've been noticing and working through in my life: the Either/Or Trap of cyclical thinking.

I explain:

• What the Either/Or Trap is and how it shows up for me and some of my clients.
• What typically keeps you stuck in the binary of only two answers to a situation or problem.
• How my clients and I have worked through the challenge of only seeing two answers and finding more possible options.
• The tool and process I use to help move out of the cyclical Either/Or thought loop and into more choice. 

The book I referenced: "Questions Are The Answer" by Hal Gregersen. 

If you want to let me know how this tool worked out for you, feel free to write me at: krista@kristaoverlycoaching.com

Trying the new, the different, or the unique often leads to seeking plans, advice, and input from others. But when you're creating a brand-new path you'll need to call up belief and courage.

In this shorter episode I share a recent experience I've been going through and how an article I happened to see helped me realize that "winging it" is my best option.

If you're currently "winging it" I'd love to hear how you're handling it. Feel free to drop me a line at: krista@kristaoverlycoaching.com.

Why do some of us still need 'permission' to wear an outfit, try a new hobby, stop coloring our hair, etc.?

Is this you now, or are you working through getting past wanting someone else's approval? Then this episode is for you.

I talk about:

Why needing permission may still show up for you.
Why you don't need anyone else's "permission" or approval.
And, how to start letting that need go with small experiments. 

**There's at least one swear word in this episode, hence the Explicit rating. 

Being 50+ years is often the moment when you realize you have an opportunity to move out of the groove and grow into a new version of you.

But what if you don't know exactly what you want that to be?

In this episode I share three questions that may help stir up some ideas for you.

I invite you to share your answers with me over on my Instagram post this week, @kristaoverly, or you can email them to me: krista@kristaoverlycoaching.com

I'd love to hear what you come up with for yourself! 

Last week at end of the episode i mentioned that I was going to share how to make being bold a bit more fun.

I wanted to share this with you because :

• I had my own ideas of what fun was, and it wasn't being bold
  
• My own definition of being a bolder woman wasn't very positive
  
• For a long part of my own life I was a people pleaser which,
  A. wasn't fun, and
  B, wasn't bold, and it kept me from being bold.

I'm also sharing a few tips to help with bringing more fun and enjoyment to experimenting with and taking bolder action.

Here's the link to the YouTube video I mentioned about the person dancing at a music festival: https://youtu.be/9_xIoJzZtKg

Want to share your experiences trying one of these tips? I'd love to read about it. Send me an email:  krista@kristaoverlycoaching.com

I look forward to hearing from you! 

As a woman in my 50s I've learned that designing my next 50 years is going to require more BOLDNESS. It's a quality that doesn't always come naturally, but when I show up with boldness my life feels more alive and satisfying.

I soon realized I wasn't the only woman challenged with being bolder, so I decided to share my journey with you. In this podcast I'll share the path I've been on, what I'm learning now, and conversations I'm having with other women who are living a bold life now and well into the years to come.

I invite you to join me in exploring and being part of the movement toward being Older and Bolder.
