Jill takes the gloves off and gives us bare knuckles coaching on:

• Pretending we don’t know what to do

• Not admitting we aren’t willing to do what it takes to get what we say we want 

• Being ask-holes 

• The lies we tell ourselves about weakness and strength

• Blaming everything outside of ourselves for the life we have

• Why quitting is sometimes the bravest act

Show Notes:

[1:27] - Let’s chat about the lie we share that we don’t know what to do.

[2:48] - Our brain craves safety. But safety isn’t safe. It’s just what is familiar.

[4:20] - Some of us are genuinely unwilling to do what it takes. That radical honesty is fine.

[6:18] - Some people will continue to complain about not knowing what to do, even though the solutions have been provided.

[9:33] - We can’t pretend to not know what to do. If we really don’t know what to do, we can find the answers.

[11:03] - You need to do the work, read the books, find the information, take the courses, and do it all yourself. You can’t rely on someone else to give it to you.

[12:18] - Some people will not only complain about not knowing what to do, but will come up with lists of reasons why they can’t do it.

[14:17] - Being a people pleaser is actually a form of control.

[16:02] - We’re married to our story. We’re married to the excuses. What if we decided to propose to the answers?

[19:54] - We don’t know what we don’t know.

[21:08] - Are you willing to become the student?

[24:51] - Things will change for you when you realize you are the director of your own theater.

[27:23] - No one is coming to save you. You are your own hero.

[32:26] - There’s a difference between rest and weakness.

[34:03] - Functional freeze is when you are able to function, but inside you are stuck.

[37”25] - Are you going to heed the advice?
