FEAR - False Evidence Appearing Real!

I want you to meet Ted, my Coaching Client, a real hero, a loving father, hard-working, real estate agent, servant leader, in the community, who came to this country as a young boy from Russia, and has literally worked his way up in life to create the American dream.

When Ted came to me to start working together, he told me about his fear of driving on the freeways. And living in San Diego as a real estate agent, one of the largest counties in the country, I realized the amount of precious time he was losing every day, literally, by driving on back roads getting from appointment to appointment, from one side of town to the other, taking two hours in transit, for what? Otherwise would have been a 20 minute commute. All day. Every day. He was literally letting fear ruin his life and get in the way of what he loved - spending time with his daughter and friends. Ted was stuck in his car, wasting time, money, energy, and resources. I fear that was keeping him playing small, stuck, overwhelmed, without agency or freedom in his life. 

Ted and I started to work through, not around, his fear of driving on freeways. We faced it head on. We uncovered the false evidence appearing real. I would literally be in the car with him, every week, as we broke through this limiting belief that was ruining his life, family, job, and everything he had worked so hard to build. He’s slowly gained more confidence, self-esteem, and empowerment which translated into every other area of his life. Together we created a plan that allowed Ted to be the hero of his own story and overcame his biggest fear. Gradually the fear lost its power, and Ted was able to create a new story around, driving on the freeways. A new truth that aligned with his values and highest good. A story in truth that serves, supports, and empowers his goals and vision of the future to be his best self. 

Ted now enjoys a new freedom, a new happiness, a new life perspective, a new possibility for what Ted can create in his life – one of maximum success, significance, and fulfillment. Maximizing his true and full potential. Saving tons of money in gas, saving tons of time he now uses with family, friends, new work, projects, and travel.

In fact, Ted started taking road trips up and down the coast of California with his daughter visiting places that before were not accessible. He also started flying on airplanes around the world. This is relevant, because Ted also had a fear of flying before we started working together. In fact, he hadn’t been on an airplane in many many years. And because of his work, overcoming his fear of driving on freeways, Ted had the courage and confidence and empowerment to overcome his fear of flying. It’s all connected. Ted’s love of world travel has taken him to countries he thought wasn’t possible because of his fear. not anymore. Ted got his life back. His freedom. Because he had the courage to face is fear head on and ask for help.

My question to you, what is your greatest fear, and how is it holding you back from living the life you were meant to live. A life of abundance, health, prosperity, wealth, freedom, and wholeness. You were meant to not just survive, but thrive!

You get to create your own story as the hero just like Ted.

"The first thing we do when we come into the world as newborns is inhale - our first breath. The last thing we do before we die is exhale - our last breath. Yet some many of us don't have a relationship with the one thing that gives us and sustains our life. The breath!"

In this episode, Andrew tells a story of working in the corporate world 10 years ago and numbing out trying to deal with the high-stresses of his job. And hitting rock-bottom and finding his way into a drug and alcohol detox center. And on day #1 of his new sobriety feeling so overwhelmed, anxious, and not having alcohol or drugs to turn to like he had done every day to help cope with life. And forcing him to focus instead of his breath. "Fucking breath Andrew" he had to tell himself.

Andrew walks you through and demonstrates three different types of breathwork, along with the physiological benefits of each, including box-breathing, physiological sighing, and holotropic (Wim Hof). Andrew shares the positive impact breathwork has has on his own life and how Andrew empowers all his coaching clients with the same tools to create breakthroughs and transformation.

"I want everyone to know it's okay to not be okay. But you've got to raise your hand and ask for help." -Randy Grimes

WOW! An epic interview with Randy Grimes talking about his journey from NFL "Man of the Year" to living in an abandoned house with no utilities. We discuss  his intention for writing his book.

Some simple questions to ask when reflecting and choosing your "Word of the Year":

1. This word is meant to make you take action in the direction of the person you deserve and want to be
2. This word gives you a feeling that you love and inspires you to be a better version of yourself
3. This word should trigger a positive and enthusiastic response in your entire body, viscerally
4. This word should be an activation word that inspires decisive action towards the best version of yourself
5. This word should align w/your intentions, values, thoughts, words, and actions and the highest good
6. What emotions do you connect with this word?
7. How do you feel when you think about this word?

AND, it's important we release and let go of 2022 before we create our word, intentions, and goals for 2023. 

In this episode, I lead you through a powerful visualization to, both literally and figuratively, let go and release the constraints of the past year and everything that you associate with it.

“I haven’t been able to look at myself in the mirror for the last five years, and today I like what I see.”

Most of my clients are at war with themselves. This is how I help them. 

This was an actual quote from one of my coaching clients. The majority of my clients have one thing in common: They are at war with themselves. They’re dominated by negative self-talk, limiting beliefs, stress, and fear.

So the first thing I do with all my coaching clients is uncover what is getting in the way of them becoming their highest selves and maximizing their potential: those limiting beliefs, the old stories we bring to the present, the unhealthy patterns, and overwhelming stress, fear, and anxiety. 

“Uncover, discover, and discard.”

The second thing we do is discover the negative impact that these things are causing on my clients’ lives and the lives around them. 

Finally, we discard. We let go of the past, the negative beliefs, and the worn-out stories. After that, we create new ways of being, positive habits to replace the old ones. 

Uncover, discover, and discard. 

With that framework, I empower my clients to find new possibilities in their lives. You can get what Paul got, a loving and compassionate relationship with yourself. You deserve it.
