You are listening to the Life Coach School Podcast with Brooke Castillo, episode number 450.

Welcome to the Life Coach School Podcast,

where it's all about real clients,

real problems, and real coaching.

And now, your host, Master Coach Instructor, Brooke Castillo.

Hello, my beautiful friends.

How are you today?

I am recording this after playing some crazy pickleball.

Are you guys into pickleball?

Tanya, my best friend and I are obsessed with pickleball right now.

All we want to do is play pickleball.

So we had 16 people here for Thanksgiving and they ended up staying longer,

literally, so we could all play pickleball.

So that's what we've been doing and it is so fun and I love it.

And I highly encourage you all to play.

We have here in Scottsdale at the place where I live,

we have a country club and the country club part of it is pickleball courts and being able to do pickleball.

So I do it weekly with my friends and Christine,

and I highly encourage you to try it out.

Tanya thinks she might join a pickleball league.

So that's what I have been up to and I'm actually incredibly sore and ready to chill and relax.

Everyone has just left.

And so I am relaxing now in a very quiet house.

My assistant Tori is amazing.

She literally came and put my house back together.

It was destruction.

16 people in a house is a lot.

And she came and like,

literally it's so beautiful again.

And so shout out to Tori.

I love you, girl.

All right, let's talk about embracing the negative.

Now I talk a lot about life being 50-50 and embracing the negative in the world.

But in this podcast, I wanted to talk about embracing the negative in you and the parts of you that aren't good.

Let's call them.

We are raised to believe and socialized to believe

that we should try to be good and that we will become more worthy

the better we get and the better well-behaved we are.

We will become more worthy of our own selves.

And I just want to be really clear that your worthiness is indisputable.

You cannot increase it and you cannot decrease it.

So any amount of effort to be good will not make you more worthy

and anything you've done that is bad will not make you less worthy, period.

I want to encourage you to adopt a belief system that includes being a human being,

which means you, as well as the world, are 50-50.

And there are many things that you have done in your life,

many mistakes, transgressions, regrets in your life that are part of your human experience.

They are part of being human.

They are part of being you.

And there is nothing wrong with you if you have done negative things

or if you regret things that you've done in your life because they were not good.

It simply means that you are a human being.

Now, this doesn't let you off the hook from apologizing.

This doesn't let you off the hook from making an effort not to do the things that you regret doing.

I'm not saying that.

I'm not saying you should just not care about those things.

I'm suggesting that you don't beat yourself up with shame and think there's something wrong with you because of those things.

Think of all the things in your past that you wish you hadn't done and take a deep breath and say,

oh, I'm human.

This is part of my human experience.

I have a human brain and I'm in the world and life is 50 50.

And I can sit here

and beat the heck out of myself for the rest of my life for things that I've done.

Or I can make peace with the fact that human beings make mistakes

and human beings do things that cause problems for other people and human beings do things that hurt other people, quote unquote.

And it's okay.

It's okay.

You're okay.

I also want you to ask yourself the question,

what is this life experience that you're going through?

How would you explain it as a ride at Disneyland?

Would include negative things?

Would it include hurtful things?

Yes.

And it's because you're not just a human.

You're interacting with other humans who also have very negative things,

who are also 50-50.

Now, here's an amazing thing to consider.

you can embrace inside of you the negative things.

Not just the negative things that you've done in your past,

but the negative characteristics that you have,

the negative thoughts that you have,

the negative feelings that you have,

the negative behavior patterns that you have.

Instead of resisting and fighting and trying to hide them,

I want to encourage you to embrace them as part of your human experience.

The parts of you that get angry or maybe even over angry,

The parts of you that are bitchy,

irrational, mean, ugly, sloppy, lazy, scared, worried.

I just saw this thing on Instagram and it said,

I could be a lot meaner than I am and I feel like I should get credit for that.

I'd love that.

But maybe for you it's different words that you need to embrace.

Maybe it's entitled and lazy and victim-y and complain-y.

Yeah, that's a word, complain-y.

Maybe it's manipulative or secretive or gossip-y.

What is it in you

that you don't like about you that's the negative part of you that you could start embracing as part of your humanness?

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.
