Solve Your Problems With The Model

The Model has changed everything in my life over the past four years. I’ve become much healthier physically, improved my relationships, grown my business (even during the pandemic), felt so much better emotionally, and much more. So, I’m passionate about sharing it with anyone who could benefit, even if only half as much as I have.

Life will continue to present each of us with unexpected, sometimes unwelcome surprises, challenges, and losses. It’s not always easy to understand what the underlying cause of a problem is, which is critical to identifying and implementing a long-term solution. Also, we often think that if we simply take decisive action to fix things, all will improve. But the truth is that if we don’t change our underlying mindset and engage in coaching on causes rather than symptoms, even if it is self-coaching, the change is not likely to stick.

I’ve spent many years studying Zen Buddhism, Stoicism, cognitive behavioral therapy, countless spiritual traditions and personal growth teachers. Then I finally found one model, one tool, that brought everything I had absorbed together in a framework I could use and apply daily to identify the root cause of my problems and to take action that creates lasting change. And now, I’m able to use it with my coaching clients to support them in transforming their lives in whatever ways they choose.

In this episode, I offer an introduction to The Model, also known as The Self-Coaching Model, which was developed by Master Certified Coach Brooke Castillo, founder of The Life Coach School, where I proudly hold a life coaching certification, in addition to my certification with the International Coaching Federation. We delve into and analyze the five steps of The Self-Coaching Model and learn how to apply it to our daily struggles. We also explore why mere circumstances can turn into negative results in our lives, even though they don’t have to, and we discover how Castillo's model can help us be far more intentional, present, and peaceful in our lives.

Tune in and listen to Episode 2 of Growth & Gratitude to discover this powerful tool that can help you get a different perspective on what's between you and your growth.
