Practising What You Preach: Embrace Personal Growth

Episode Overview

  • Take your own medicine for authentic growth.
  • Reflect on whether you follow your own advice.
  • Understand emotional biases in self-guidance.
  • Set micro-goals for personal alignment.
  • Treat yourself with compassion and wisdom.
"When you give others guidance, it usually comes from a place of experience or education."
In this episode of Encouragementology, Kendell Boysen, a professional life and recovery coach, flips the script on self-growth by urging us to practice what we preach. We've all been there – giving out stellar advice while our own life seems to be running on autopilot. Kendell takes us on a journey to explore how taking our own medicine can lead to genuine personal growth.
It's about aligning our actions with our beliefs and making sure we're not just cheerleaders for others but champions for ourselves too. Kendell shares her own realisation that guiding others is often easier than applying those same lessons to ourselves. She encourages listeners to slow down and reflect, asking, "Am I living in alignment with what I believe?" This isn't about perfection but honesty and willingness to grow.
The episode introduces a self-reflection quiz that invites listeners to evaluate whether they truly follow their own advice. It's a light-hearted yet profound exercise that nudges us towards self-awareness without judgement. Kendell also discusses the emotional biases that can cloud our judgement, making it difficult to take our own advice. She highlights the importance of self-awareness and intentional reflection as tools for bridging this gap.
With humour and empathy, Kendell encourages listeners to play the best friend role for themselves, create self-coaching scripts, and set micro-goals for alignment. It's about treating yourself with the same compassion and wisdom you offer to others. So, if you're ready to show up for your own healing with the same grace you offer others, this episode is your call to action. Dive into the exploration of self-accountability and discover how taking your own medicine can lead to transformative growth.
