Description
The Focus Coaching Show: because what you focus on matters for your work/life balance success.Life is short, focus hard! In this podcast we will focus on personal and professional development to achieve the next stage of growth for you. You will learn what it takes to truly be successful at work and life. Stress is the paramount issue of our time, and we need to combat it wholeheartedly with dogged focus on what matters to us most. Each one of us is a work in progress and the ultimate aim of the Focus Coach is to get so deeply balanced and rooted, so our well-being gets stronger over time. More well-being and balance lead to better outcomes. Lack of balance and stress leads to many negative health outcomes, none of which we really want.I will be exploring skills, mindsets, and strategies over time in areas such as stress management, goal setting, confidence, work/life balance, motivation, living from strengths, mindfulness, and many more. I will have a steady stream of incredible guest speakers, whose credentials and expertise and passion will get you pumped up to change. I will equip you with a ‘small toolbox for big change’ over time so you can immediately go from the podcast and into your life to implement things I talk about. By listening to this podcast you will become a better person. You will become more focused on your well-being as well as others’ well-being. You will decrease your stress and increase your peace of mind. Your intentional focus on what matters to you most will take your positivity and success to another level. You will be able to handle your strong negative emotions with more ease and turn them into productive service to your end results and outcomes that you truly want. Your engagement and change is my primary aim.
