When ordinary people share the authentic backstage truth behind their success, the doors of possibility open for all of us! Many years ago I came across a lady who had not graduated from college until she was almost 30 years old. By the time I had found her, she was a college professor and on the verge of changing millions of people s lives. This woman is Brené Brown, university professor/researcher/NYT best selling author, famous TED speaker with over 25 million views, and CEO of the Daring Way.

Today I am bringing back one of the three interviews I have done with Brené Brown to get you ready for her latest book Rising Strong.

In this interview with Brené, we talk about the idea of being enough, love + belonging, worthy pre-requisites, our shame gremlin of never good enough, the things in our life that keep us small, and our triggers. Every time I listen to this interview I learn something new or am reminded of something I want to remember and I did the interview with her.

Worthiness is a birth right.

~Brené Brown, on How She Really Does It

In this conversation we discuss:

Transcript:

WHO AM I?

Hello + Welcome. This is Koren Motekaitis, and I am a certified life + weight loss coach along with being a Daring Way facilitator, and the reason why I host this show is because, I believe there are many ways to live life. I believe there are many journeys for us to take. We can learn from others to see what is possible for ourselves. I believe there are possibilities for all of us. It s not limited to only those who have acquired great success, but including those of us who have stumbled, lost our way, or only saw closed doors. In this podcast you will find out that this is the true pathway to success. Instead of accepting your life as good as it gets you can find out how others have created great lives so you can too.
About the show

When ordinary people share the authentic backstage truth behind their success, the doors of possibility open for all of us!

I have weekly conversations with guests who represent their own unique version of success. They too have had their own struggles and uncertainty yet they have found their way. My guests + I are an example of what is possible when you show up in your life, when you go all in, fall down, and get back up and continue to practice.

Since 2006 and over 440 shows, I have interviewed thought leaders and researchers like Brené Brown, Daniel Pink, Martha Beck, Danielle Laporte, Simon Sinek, Carol Dweck, Harriet Lerner, Byron Katie, Geneen Roth, Gretchen Rubin, Todd Kashdon, Kristin Neff and Heidi Grant Halvorson as well as ordinary people doing extraordinary things. In hearing their stories, I invite you to ask yourself, if that is possible for them, what is possible for me? Really, ask yourself that…

In between each week s shows I take all this talk + research, and help my clients integrate it into their actual life. My lovely clients are high functioning, over-achievers who come to me feeling like a fraud. They believed their next achievement would finally make them good enough. Instead they are stressed and frustrated that all their achievements did not create this Great Life and self-confidence they desired.

Exhausted and settling in their life created a hunger so deep inside of them for something more. While they tried to convince themselves daily that this is as good as it gets + that s okay, they decided to change things. They work with me so they can stop feeling like a fraud, being stressed, angry/frustrated and live a GREAT, meaningful real life.

When I am not on the airwaves or coaching clients you can find me near water (my life necessity) coaching the local youth swim team, the AquaMonsters, playing games with family + friends, or enjoying delicious coffee with a good friend.

So there you go. Now you know who I am, Koren. And now we can get started on helping you create a GREAT meaningful life + career!

WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU?
And if you re listening to this, clearly you are interested in personal development. Maybe you have read a lot of books, gone to conferences and you re looking to take your life to the next level. Maybe you re too busy to read and love podcasts as a portable medium you can take everywhere, to help you create a great life.

Either way, I promise you this podcast is going to be for you. You will realize you are not alone. You will receive nuggets of insight in each show. You will learn cutting edge research as I am a bit of a nut over other people s research. You will hear insightful, real + authentic conversations to help you move through the as good as it gets life to a great one!

In this interview with Brené, we talk about the idea of being enough, love + belonging, worthy pre-requisites, our shame gremlin of never good enough, the things in our life that keep us small, and our triggers.

Today I am bringing back one of three interviews I have done with Brené Brown to get you ready for her upcoming book Rising Strong which comes out August 25th, 2015. In the last show I showcased my interview with Brené and our conversation about worthiness. In this podcast I am sharing the first interview we ever did together. We were supposed to talk about letting go of perfection. And quite honestly we had a bit to do ourselves to get through this interview.

Thanks for listening.

Practice loving yourself so you have the ability to love others. Let go of perfection as it is one of the things that makes you small.

And practice being mindful of the things that make you small or when you make others small. This will allow us all to show up be seen and live brave.

Are you ready to let go of the perfection that is strangling your life.

You can’t give people what we don’t have.”

~Brené Brown, on How She Really Does It

LISTEN HERE

In this conversation we discuss:

• Letting go of perfection
• Loving ourselves
• Why we can only love others as much as we love ourselves
• Concrete examples of how to practice loving oneself
• Parenting from a place of compassion
• Belonging
• Connection
• Worthiness
• The takeaways two specific practices to help you believe in your worthiness

You dream of obtaining your dream job. But what happens when the dream job is no longer your dream and you leave without knowing where you are headed?

Tess Vigeland recently wowed the crowd at WDS (World Domination Summit hosted by former guest Chris Guillebeau).

Tess speech at WDS, What the Hell Are you Doing?! A Serious Stare Down the Barrel of an Ordinary Life. was raw and ripe with vulnerability.

She talked about her dream of being a host of a national radio show Marketplace Money, obtaining her dream job and leaving when she still had too much self respect to stay.

Unlike the movie story endings we so often like to watch, Tess left her dream job without a safety net and without knowing what was next. On the WDS stage, Tess, let down her armor and shared with us her real journey.
