Get ready for a transformative conversation with my guest, Ted, who has turned personal tragedy into a driving force for coaching others. As we peel back layers of Ted's journey, we uncover the essence of coaching; listening intently, meeting individuals where they are, and seeing past external motivators to the core of what makes us tick. This isn't just about numbers or metrics, it's about tapping into the human spirit and sparking inner motivation.We then shift gears to the psychology behind our behaviors, exploring the intricate network of our habits. Beginning with small, achievable goals can create a snowball effect, culminating in significant, lasting change. Yet, it's not just about the actions we take, but also the emotions and drives behind them. As we expose the pull of pleasure and the push of pain, we challenge you to break free from entrenched routines and construct healthier patterns. Finally, we turn the spotlight on the power of mindset and the value of a supportive community. Ted's story unveils the cathartic role of exercise in emotional management and challenges the traditional narrative around health habits. We're not just talking about looking good, but about feeling good and thriving. The conversation culminates with an emphasis on consistency, the backbone of enduring success. So, prepare to be stimulated, inspired, and motivated to change your life, one small action at a time.(00:02) Coaching & Personal Transformation(14:00) Starting Small and Overcoming Habits(21:06) The Power of Mindset and Support(34:44) Importance of Consistency in Achieving Goals
