You are listening to the Life Coach School Podcast with Brooke Castillo, episode number 450.
2
Welcome to the Life Coach School Podcast,
3
where it's all about real clients,
4
real problems, and real coaching.
5
And now, your host, Master Coach Instructor, Brooke Castillo.
6
Hello, my beautiful friends.
7
How are you today?
8
I am recording this after playing some crazy pickleball.
9
Are you guys into pickleball?
10
Tanya, my best friend and I are obsessed with pickleball right now.
11
All we want to do is play pickleball.
12
So we had 16 people here for Thanksgiving and they ended up staying longer,
13
literally, so we could all play pickleball.
14
So that's what we've been doing and it is so fun and I love it.
15
And I highly encourage you all to play.
16
We have here in Scottsdale at the place where I live,
17
we have a country club and the country club part of it is pickleball courts and being able to do pickleball.
18
So I do it weekly with my friends and Christine,
19
and I highly encourage you to try it out.
20
Tanya thinks she might join a pickleball league.
21
So that's what I have been up to and I'm actually incredibly sore and ready to chill and relax.
22
Everyone has just left.
23
And so I am relaxing now in a very quiet house.
24
My assistant Tori is amazing.
25
She literally came and put my house back together.
26
It was destruction.
27
16 people in a house is a lot.
28
And she came and like,
29
literally it's so beautiful again.
30
And so shout out to Tori.
31
I love you, girl.
32
All right, let's talk about embracing the negative.
33
Now I talk a lot about life being 50-50 and embracing the negative in the world.
34
But in this podcast, I wanted to talk about embracing the negative in you and the parts of you that aren't good.
35
Let's call them.
36
We are raised to believe and socialized to believe
37
that we should try to be good and that we will become more worthy
38
the better we get and the better well-behaved we are.
39
We will become more worthy of our own selves.
40
And I just want to be really clear that your worthiness is indisputable.
41
You cannot increase it and you cannot decrease it.
42
So any amount of effort to be good will not make you more worthy
43
and anything you've done that is bad will not make you less worthy, period.
44
I want to encourage you to adopt a belief system that includes being a human being,
45
which means you, as well as the world, are 50-50.
46
And there are many things that you have done in your life,
47
many mistakes, transgressions, regrets in your life that are part of your human experience.
48
They are part of being human.
49
They are part of being you.
50
And there is nothing wrong with you if you have done negative things
51
or if you regret things that you've done in your life because they were not good.
52
It simply means that you are a human being.
53
Now, this doesn't let you off the hook from apologizing.
54
This doesn't let you off the hook from making an effort not to do the things that you regret doing.
55
I'm not saying that.
56
I'm not saying you should just not care about those things.
57
I'm suggesting that you don't beat yourself up with shame and think there's something wrong with you because of those things.
58
Think of all the things in your past that you wish you hadn't done and take a deep breath and say,
59
oh, I'm human.
60
This is part of my human experience.
61
I have a human brain and I'm in the world and life is 50 50.
62
And I can sit here
63
and beat the heck out of myself for the rest of my life for things that I've done.
64
Or I can make peace with the fact that human beings make mistakes
65
and human beings do things that cause problems for other people and human beings do things that hurt other people, quote unquote.
66
And it's okay.
67
It's okay.
68
You're okay.
69
I also want you to ask yourself the question,
70
what is this life experience that you're going through?
71
How would you explain it as a ride at Disneyland?
72
Would include negative things?
73
Would it include hurtful things?
74
Yes.
75
And it's because you're not just a human.
76
You're interacting with other humans who also have very negative things,
77
who are also 50-50.
78
Now, here's an amazing thing to consider.
79
you can embrace inside of you the negative things.
80
Not just the negative things that you've done in your past,
81
but the negative characteristics that you have,
82
the negative thoughts that you have,
83
the negative feelings that you have,
84
the negative behavior patterns that you have.
85
Instead of resisting and fighting and trying to hide them,
86
I want to encourage you to embrace them as part of your human experience.
87
The parts of you that get angry or maybe even over angry,
88
The parts of you that are bitchy,
89
irrational, mean, ugly, sloppy, lazy, scared, worried.
90
I just saw this thing on Instagram and it said,
91
I could be a lot meaner than I am and I feel like I should get credit for that.
92
I'd love that.
93
But maybe for you it's different words that you need to embrace.
94
Maybe it's entitled and lazy and victim-y and complain-y.
95
Yeah, that's a word, complain-y.
96
Maybe it's manipulative or secretive or gossip-y.
97
What is it in you
98
that you don't like about you that's the negative part of you that you could start embracing as part of your humanness?
99
We need all the parts of us that make us human to have this human experience,
100
to go on this Disneyland ride.
101
We have to have the opposites.
102
We can't have the positive,
103
amazing, beautiful, kind, lovely experiences without having the contrast that define them.
104
We can't appreciate kindness in a human being if we don't appreciate meanness.
105
because meanness is what helps define kindness.
106
We know kindness when we see it because we've seen meanness.
107
We know kindness in ourselves because we also know meanness in ourselves.
108
What does it mean to truly experience all of life,
109
all of the nooks and crannies of our own mind,
110
of the world, of relationships,
111
of other people, of ourselves,
112
truly the true parts of all of us.
113
If we deny and push away and pretend,
114
we don't fully experience what it is like to be us.
115
There are times when I am just cranky.
116
There are times when I am frustrated.
117
There are times when I make really big,
118
frustrating mistakes in my life.
119
And it doesn't mean anything's gone wrong.
120
It doesn't mean that I'm bad.
121
It doesn't mean I should hide or that I should be in shame.
122
It simply means that I'm a human being having a human experience.
123
How can we be here for all of it by taking chances,
124
by trying things, by showing up,
125
by failing, by exploring ourselves.
126
One of the teachers of this,
127
Debbie Ford, I studied years ago and she has a book all about the shadow
128
and embracing your own shadow parts of yourself.
129
And it really helped me change my life.
130
You know, many, many years ago,
131
it helped me find the acceptance to be who I really am.
132
Her book is called The Dark Side of the Light Chasers.
133
And it's actually a very good read.
134
It's an old book, but it's a very good read.
135
And unfortunately, Debbie has since passed away,
136
but her work definitely leaves a legacy and stands the test of time.
137
And one of the things
138
that I talked about a little bit in Life Coach Live from the stage was
139
when we really do this shadow work on ourselves
140
and we really explore the parts of us that are dark
141
and that other people don't like and that we get criticized for
142
and we really embrace those things and love those things about the human experience as part of the contrast,
143
we find a deeper sense of love and acceptance of ourselves.
144
But not only that, we have the ability to then translate that love,
145
that unconditional love that we develop for ourselves into other people.
146
And when we see within ourselves that there is this balance between good and bad,
147
and that that's normal, then we start to understand that it's normal in other people.
148
And that doesn't mean we put up with terrible behavior or let people treat us terribly at all,
149
but it also means that we get it.
150
We understand.
151
It's humanness.
152
We don't get as horrified by the small transgressions throughout our days
153
because we understand that we need all of the things to provide all of the contrast.
154
You've heard me say it a million times.
155
If everything were good, we wouldn't know anything was good.
156
If everyone was happy, if everything was happy,
157
if we were happy all the time,
158
we wouldn't even be able to define happiness.
159
We wouldn't even know what it is to be happy
160
because the only reason we know what it is to be happy is because we're unhappy too.
161
The only reason we know goodness within us is because we also know badness within us.
162
So for some of you,
163
this may be challenging to embrace the parts of you because you want to pretend that they're not there.
164
You want to work to overcome them.
165
And I actually think that's a beautiful thing.
166
I think trying to be the best human being you can be is amazing
167
if it's for your benefit and not at your expense.
168
And if you're trying to be better than you are,
169
and in the process of doing that,
170
you are bathing in self-loathing and bathing yourself up
171
and hiding from the world because You don't want anyone to see those dark,
172
icky parts of you.
173
And you aren't showing up to express the possibility of who you are.
174
You will miss the opportunity to know yourself.
175
You will miss the opportunity to fully experience life because you will be hiding.
176
And I will say I've been running into so many people lately that I've been coaching who are hiding.
177
hiding behind a false facade of goodness,
178
pretending that they're better than they are instead of being who they really are.
179
Misery is trying to always be right,
180
trying to always be good,
181
and trying to always be better than we are.
182
It is out of integrity when we do this.
183
One of the main ways that we do this is with people pleasing.
184
We pretend to other people to be better than we are.
185
We pretend to be nicer than we are.
186
We do things we don't want to do.
187
We do things that manipulate other people into thinking that we're kinder than we are when it's completely ingenuine.
188
And I want to encourage that there's a way to be honest and truthful and in our own ickiness
189
and also in love.
190
To be crabby and complainy and frustrated and mad and angry
191
and also to love all of that about us
192
and to have other people behave the same way and love
193
that about our humanness and stop trying to pretend that it isn't there.
194
Because the truth is sometimes our best isn't good enough.
195
It just isn't.
196
And sometimes we don't do our best.
197
And sometimes we don't do our best on purpose.
198
And sometimes we procrastinate and we're lazy and we sit around and we do hedonistic things.
199
We overeat and we overdrink and we do drugs and we watch porn and we get on social media too long.
200
And we can use all of that to put ourselves down and beat ourselves up,
201
or we can let ourselves off the hook and just indulge in all of those indulgent emotions,
202
or we can simply decide on purpose what we're going to aim for and not beat ourselves up for any reason.
203
Continue to decide, continue to grow,
204
to continue to show up,
205
continue to put ourselves in harm's way,
206
embrace the negativity in the world and embrace the negativity within our own selves.
207
So the exercise that I did at Life Coach Live,
208
and I want to encourage each of you to do it,
209
is to write down the three things about yourself that you most are ashamed of,
210
or that you don't like, or that you regret.
211
And then when you're done with that,
212
write down the three things in other people that you don't like.
213
Those things that really, really get to you.
214
When people, maybe it's when people are lazy or when people don't think or when people lie.
215
And then when you have those six things written down,
216
the three things that you don't like in yourself and the three things that you don't like in other people,
217
I want you to look at those six things
218
and I want you to embrace them in any way that you can as part of the human experience.
219
Take each part and see how it benefits you in some way.
220
how even maybe just the contrast experience of it makes you appreciate its opposite.
221
But also how having that in your life maybe has helped you take care of yourself
222
or get something done or rest or motivate you.
223
How has those things that are so annoying in other people,
224
how have those things served you in your life as well?
225
And you may be tempted to be like,
226
well, they have it and it's not good and I don't like it and I'm not going to,
227
you know, pay attention to it, that sort of thing.
228
But, and you can, of course,
229
but I just want to recommend that you look at all of those things,
230
all the negative things in other people and within yourself
231
and you take a deep breath and you recognize that it's all okay.
232
It's all good.
233
And it all serves our human experience.
234
One of the things that I have done in my journal is written down the three things about myself,
235
the things I most don't like about myself.
236
And for each one of them,
237
I wrote how each of those things that I don't like about myself has served me in my life.
238
And it was really incredibly powerful
239
to see that mostly I don't like those things about myself because I have been taught that those things are bad.
240
They hurt other people's feelings or offend other people or frustrate other people.
241
right and i've seen how they've actually benefited me
242
and helped me get the things
243
that i want for myself for my friends for my kids for my life
244
and one of the pieces of work that i have done
245
that i think is so that was the most profound life-altering work
246
that i did was the work of byron katie and it's interesting
247
when i first got a hold of her work i was obsessed i read all of her books,
248
listened to all of her tapes,
249
practiced all of her work.
250
And I did the four question work that she teaches a lot and the judge your neighbor worksheet.
251
And one of the things she has you do is write down judgments of other people
252
and then turn those judgments back on yourself.
253
So you can understand that whatever it is, is probably a projection.
254
And I'll tell you how incredibly truly freeing that was for me to do that work,
255
for me to truly understand that whatever anyone says about me is probably true.
256
So this is why my kids are always so mad
257
because they said I can't get offended because they'll say things about me and to me and I'm like,
258
yeah, that's true.
259
I can see it.
260
I can find it.
261
I'm not like, no, I'm not.
262
How dare you say that?
263
That offends me or that hurts my feelings.
264
I'm like, no, I can see how that's true for me in my life,
265
in myself, in my character.
266
And as soon as you embrace it,
267
you get authority over it.
268
And when I'm really frustrated at someone else,
269
I can say to myself,
270
huh, how do I have that in me?
271
How do I make peace with that thing that is in this other person,
272
but is also in me and in the world and in the human experience?
273
And she would say, when you fight with reality,
274
you lose, but only 100% of the time.
275
And so when we look at reality and we look at what exists and we look at,
276
oh, these things are supposed to exist.
277
Shame and frustration, meanness and ugliness and, you know, fury.
278
They're all supposed to exist within us.
279
We don't need to argue with them.
280
They're all part of this experience.
281
We can breathe a little easier.
282
We don't have to condemn ourselves.
283
We don't have to beat ourselves up.
284
We don't have to hide.
285
Everything within you and everything within me is okay.
286
Have a beautiful week, everyone.
287
Talk to you soon.
288
Bye.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
