Have you ever wondered if maybe your challenge or problem is just too big for coaching? Maybe it requires something more clinical, something different. Well, maybe it does, but also maybe not. Maybe coaching is the thing you’ve been looking for. Or maybe coaching in addition to some other tools and resources can really get you the transformation you’re seeking. 

Today’s episode is one I’m so delighted to share with you. My long-time client and friend and now fellow coach, Becky Garner has the most amazing transformative story to share with you. This is episode 479, From Addicted to Empowered with Becky Garner.

This is Better Than Happy. I’m your coach, Jody Moore. And on this podcast, my objective, just so we’re clear, is to change what you’ve been taught and have likely believed about yourself up until now. Here’s what I believe about you. I believe that what you think is real is mostly imagined And what you imagine is actually creating what’s real. I believe that in the ways you desire to achieve, you 100% have the capacity to succeed.

And finally, I believe that joy, love, and miracles are your God given natural state of being. And any time you feel far from them, the way back is much simpler than you think, but that’s about to change. Are you ready? Let’s do this.

All right, so I’m very excited to share with you this discussion I had with Becky. She’s going to tell you all about herself. She’s a coach. She is a mother. She’s a member of the LDS church. She is a beautiful woman and I’m so appreciative to her for coming on and sharing this story. This is extremely vulnerable for her to open up and share all of this.

I know you’ll recognize that when you hear her story, but she’s doing it not to try to show off or promote anything specifically of her own, but simply to try to help each of us with whatever might be going on for us. I want you to take Becky’s story and translate it to whatever’s going on for you. You may not be able to relate to her specific challenge, but I guarantee you have an area where you’re stuck, or you have an area where you just believe that it’s hopeless for you, that you’re not capable of changing, or that what you want is not possible in your life. 

And I want you to listen to how Becky changes and evolves through this trial to get to an entirely different place, and I want to invite you to do the same. If you want some help doing it, we are going to be offering a complimentary coaching workshop that I’d love to have you join me for. You can head to jodymoore.com/freecoaching. I’d love to provide you some free coaching if you’ve never experienced coaching before.

Becky Garner is a master certified life coach who empowers women who feel stuck to create lasting change by kicking anxiety, worry, self-doubt and self-loathing to the curb and creating a life they love living. After overcoming 30 years of anxiety, depression and a love affair with self-loathing, Becky knows how to help her clients break free from what is holding them back.

She believes that everyone deserves a big full life they love living and that everyone can change. Her most impressive feats include running in the heat of the scorching Las Vegas desert, dressed as a member of Motley Crue, skydiving over the North Shore in Oahu, and learning to love herself unconditionally.

Jody: Becky Garner, welcome to the podcast. I’m so excited to have you here today. 

Becky: Thank you. I’m so excited to be here.

Jody: Becky is here in a couple capacities. So Becky is a coach, an amazing coach, who has extensive training and experience, but also Becky has been one of my clients and friends. So I really want to begin with your story. You have such an amazing, powerful story about how coaching helped you. 

And I think it’s helpful for people to hear whether they’re struggling in the ways that they can relate to you, or in other ways, I think sometimes understanding the application of the tool helps us then apply it. So let’s just dive right in. Tell us a little bit about how you found coaching and what changes you’ve seen and I might interrupt you and ask other questions as you speak.

Becky: Totally interrupt me because I can drone on. 

Jody: Me too, girl. This might be a really long episode, everyone. No, just kidding. We’ll edit it down.

Becky: Yeah. So I came across coaching when I – gosh, let me think about this for a second. So it makes sense to me to start a little bit at the beginning, we’ll get into all the dirt here. But when I was about 11, 12 years old, I just started noticing that I was really different than my friends.

I remember sitting on my couch one night and my friends were running around and having so much fun and they were laughing and like really hyper. And there was cute boys over and everyone was having a great tim
