Yes, of course I will help you! 

Yes, of course I can do this for you!

Yes, of course I can skip my workout and meditation today!

When you always say yes to everyone and everything, you end up feeling depleted with neither energy nor time for yourself. And you start feeling overwhelmed with all the life responsibilities you've taken on.

Time to reestablish some clear boundaries with yourself around when it's time for YOU to recharge and also stick to these boundaries yourself.

Catherine Lewis is on this episode for an on-air coaching session, where we will identify what the root cause of her overwhelm is, and what she can do to step out of it and take better care of herself.

Over the years, Cath has struggled with weight, PCOS and hormonal issues, high expectations of herself since she was a teenager, and never having time for herself, because she's either working, there for her husband, her dog, friends, and family, which has hugely impacted her mental health and stress levels. 

 

In today's on-air coaching episode, I'm coaching Catherine through

how to lower the high expectation you have of yourself that make you feel fuzzy in your head

what to prepare and not get overwhelmed when you have to go back to work after a long time in isolation

what happens when you're too flexible and too giving all the time (hint: not good!)

a powerful heart/emotion exercise to figure out why she's stuck with her self-care

how to prioritize yourself when you want to be the best in everything

how to set better boundaries with herself

the no. 1 (+ super simple!) thing Catherine needs to do now to decrease the overwhelm of life responsibilities

And so much more!

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
