Simply Resilient - A Podcast For Military Wives

Hello everyone! Welcome to the Simply Resilient Podcast. My name is Jessie Ellertson and this is life coaching from a military wife who is in the trenches of life with each of you. This is a podcast for military wives who know how to handle the challenges of deployments and frequent trainings, but want to stop feeling mentally miserable in the process. You know what to do and you’re doing it, all while holding down the fort at home, but you are weary from living in survival mode and battling with your brain. You are ready to thrive and you are in the right place!

Overcoming the Motivational Triad - In this episode we discuss the motivational triad and how as humans we are designed to prioritize these three things: seek pleasure, avoid pain, conserve energy. By making these a priority it helps us stay alive, but the problem is if we're not careful it leads to a very small life. When we learn to overcome the motivational triad by doing hard things, getting out of our comfort zone, seeking gro...

This is something I think all humans struggle with, but women tend to be afflicted by this issue more than men. We speak to ourselves (or think to ourselves) very negatively. We tend to be very judgemental of ourselves, criticize ourselves, and hold ourselves to an impossible standard. We treat ourselves in ways we would never treat our family members or friends. And unfortunately because we've been doing it for so long, it feels ...

One of the most exciting concepts that I have learning since becoming a life coach is my ability to increase my capacity in any given area. It is incredible to understand how mind management can be such a powerful tool that you can use it to increase your ability to handle the ups and downs of life as well as increase valuable resources in your life like time and energy that used to feel finite to me. Enjoy!

In this episode we’re going to get into people pleasing so we can understand it better in ourselves and in others. Doing this will help us in our efforts to indulge in this behavior less, if that is what you are trying to accomplish.

We often know where we are and where we want to get to, but we don’t always know how to get from here to there. In thought work this can look like understanding your current thoughts about a situation that you are not ok with and how they are making you feel and how they are not serving you, then deciding what you want to be thinking and believing about this situation, but then not knowing how to get yourself from what you are cur...

Have you ever heard the phrase “Hindsight is 20/20”? It’s describing what happens when we can look back on something and see it more clearly than when we were in the middle of it. It can be so much easier to think and feel the way we want to think and feel about something (especially hard somethings) when we are looking back at it and it’s over and resolved and typically you have some distance from it and probably even some healing...

I know this is shocking coming from a life coach who teaches people every day that what you are thinking is everything and that your life is a result of your thoughts. However, there is a scenario where focusing on the thought can get you pretty stuck and I’m here to teach you about it and to give you permission to not worry about what you are thinking about some...
