The Life Coach School Podcast With Brooke Castillo

Join us on this fun interview as Natalie shares her journey of weight loss and pulls back the curtain on what it’s like to be a weight loss coach. We also explore some of the biggest struggles Natalie’s clients deal with when it comes to losing weight and what you can do if you find yourself in similar situations.

We take a look at the importance that self-love plays in the weight loss process and why recording what you ate and planning what to eat is a part of that equation. I also show you exactly how to talk to yourself when you come face-to-face with a decision to eat or not to eat something in a way that serves you.

When you tell yourself that you’re doing everything you’re supposed to and still not seeing the result you want, you’re most likely lying to yourself. The Model never lies. On the other hand, our brains are great at believing things that aren’t true. On this episode, we take a look at what you may be doing wrong with your models and explore what you can do differently to ensure you’re getting the exact result that you want.

Join me on this episode of The Life Coach School Podcast, as we talk about the detrimental effects of taking responsibility for the models of others as well as pushing our models onto them. Listen in to discover the power of taking responsibility only for our own actions and returning the models of others, back to where they came from.

On this second part of our two-part series on the topic of underearning, I have a special treat for all of you. I am talking to two of my students – Bev Aron and Deb Butler – about money, the mentality that keeps us stuck, and mastering the skill of outearning yourself. Bev and Deb started out in their careers as chronic underearners, although most people would never categorize them as such because they had "plenty of money." After becoming Master Life Coaches with The Life Coach School, they weren't able to break the six-figure mark for some time, until recently.

On the first part of this two-part series, I’m talking about underearning. I go exactly into what underearning is about, what causes it, and how to recognize it. We also look at the detrimental effects of underearning and explore what you can start doing today to stop the vicious cycle of not earning as much as you’re truly capable of. Make sure to tune in next week as I talk to two of my students who were chronic underearners who are now earning well into the multiple six figures.

One of the things that I notice about my students is that they have a lot of thoughts about their thoughts. They create models about their thoughts – they have models about their models. By doing so, they resist their original model and can’t allow it to be in order to change it. Join me in this episode as I teach you a meta-skill that will help you avoid the issues you may be having with your models that are keeping you from creating anything you want in your life.

On this episode, I am talking to my sons, Christian and Connor Castillo about being teenagers in the Castillo household, and growing up in today’s world. In this episode, we pull back the curtain on what kids go through from middle school to high school and explore what parents can do in order to build a better relationship with their children.

This week, we’re talking about self image – the way you interpret and think about yourself. Not how others think about you. You. Join me to discover how a positive self image can not only enrich your own life but also the lives of those around you and what you can do to start cultivating one today!

Reaching a certain level of success (and having those results in your life) is a good problem to have. However, many of us constantly sabotage those hard-earned results, often immediately. Why does this happen? On this episode, I answer this important question and coach on how you can establish your capacity to have the abundance that you created for yourself on any level of this evolution without sabotaging it.

Join me as I give you a behind-the-scenes look at what’s it’s like to have a coaching session, how you can benefit, and how oftentimes, one coaching session is all you need to get started.

On this episode, we explore the topic of why the change is difficult and how to make sense of being uncomfortable on purpose. Tune in to find out why the 50/50 (of negative vs positive emotions) of growth is tremendously better than 50/50 of beating yourself up and seeking false pleasures.

I am excited to welcome my friend, our CFO, and bookkeeper Mark Butler to talk about the ins and outs of entrepreneurial bookkeeping. In this wide-ranging conversation, we cover topics from business vs personal debt to the power of marketing. We also give you a behind-the-scenes look at the new Entrepreneurial Bookkeeping program Mark and I have developed and show you how it can help you not only get your books in order but also plan out your future finances.

Combining two ideas – consumer debt and not making decisions – I had an epiphany that when we prolong decisions or procrastinate, we end up with a bunch of unmade decisions hanging over us that are nagging at us in the back of our mind. I call this “decision debt.” Join me this week as we explore the reasons why we leave decisions unmade and how it zaps the energy from our brain and keeps us stuck. What is YOUR decision debt costing you?

Join me on this episode as I re-visit my three main concepts of weight loss to make sure you’re up to speed on those tools. Then, I share a process that utilizes what we know about the brain, neurotransmitters, and the human body to hack our decision making and reward system. This powerful tool will help you recognize anything that’s not in alignment with what you want for the long term.

On this episode, I talk about my personal evolvement through the process of using the Model in my self-coaching and the results and revelations I've experienced along the way. Then, I break down what exactly it means to really believe in this powerful tool based on the universal truth and show you what you can do in order to stay faithful to your desired Model no matter what to achieve any result you want.

This week, I’m excited to share with you a webinar that I recorded on the topic of throwing away your to-do list in which I show you exactly how you can create more time and get more efficient in every area of your life.

Today, my husband Chris and I talk about our journey from becoming business partners to scaling our business to its current iteration, as well as the role hiring the right coach has played in this process. We also go into the most valuable investments we’ve made in our business, the balance between generosity and not sending the wrong message, what material possessions mean to us, some of our splurges and more…

As you may know, assets are resources with value that give you a positive return on investment. This week, I’m talking about the three most important assets (resources) that produce abundance in your life – your brain, your time, and your money. Join me as I show you how to prioritize investing in these assets to help you create financial abundance in your life more quickly and create the exact life that you want.

To talk about selling and why it’s so important, I’m joined on this episode by Stacey Boehman. We discuss why it’s so important for life coaches (and everyone else) to learn how to sell well. We talk about separating the benefits the seller gets from sales from the benefits the client gets from sales, why you should focus on the latter, and why you have to really believe in what you’re selling.
