20 JUN. 2019 · Sarah Normandin is a life coach for women and a recovering perfectionist. She used to be my own most enthusiastic critic. Nothing she did met her high expectations and she had the emotional wounds to prove it. At best, she was your typical frenemy, whose backhanded comments lingered in her mind long into the wee hours. At worst, her own self-doubt was so debilitating that she wasn't sure she could ever escape it.
Sarah isn't alone in this. Women often struggle with perfectionism and low self-esteem. When prompted, they can hardly manage to think of a neutral thing to say about themselves, let alone something positive.
Self-criticism affects more than just our self worth. Our high standards are often reflected in other areas of our lives. This can lead to stress at work and in relationships. It is exhausting to try so hard and constantly feel disappointed in ourselves and everyone else.
23 ABR. 2019 · There is a general perception in our culture that it's normal for couples to fight. The pervasive belief is marriage and relationships are hard work. You hear that all the time. So, it's no surprise that many people think if you're going to commit, you need to roll up your sleeves and get prepared to battle your way through a lifetime of togetherness. That sounds like no one's idea of a good idea and it sets us up to believe that unhappy, dysfunctional relationships are normal. And yet, lots of people decide to do it anyway. It's a mystery.
So we couple up, and hope for happily-ever-after but prepare for the worst, because you know, it's going to be hard work. And after the new car smell wears off it starts. Maybe it's not much in the beginning, but we fight and we think that fighting is normal, if not actually healthy.
However, over time, conflict and resentment start to color how we perceive our relationships and our partners. In fact, eventually, conflict and resentment change the way we think about ourselves. The truth is a lot of fighting in a relationship, while it might be normal, is not healthy at all. The long-term prognosis for a couple that's fighting a lot isn't good, no matter how normal fighting might or might not be.
We are going to talk about 1 strategy that will help you keep your relationship out of the conflict zone and keep you relating to your partner in real-time where it's actually happening.

10 DIC. 2018 · The bottom line is, what we all want is to be happy. We think we want other things. However, we only want those things because we believe they are going to make us happy - and we might be right, for a minute, but not much longer than that because external circumstances don't actually anchor happiness.
We've all been there. You think you want the thing so you can be happy and when you get it the new car smell wears off and before you even settle in you're wondering what's next. Life moves on and the thing we thought would fix everything isn't that exciting anymore. That's because happiness, joy, satisfaction, and all of those kinds of things we really crave and a decision, not an endpoint.
So, how do you make that choice and get happy?
You decide to quit allowing yourself to wallow anyplace else.

Often the approach to dealing with bullying is to try to stop the bully. However, that approach often leaves children less empowered and still at risk of being bullied again and again.
What if we took our focus off the bully and instead taught our children to be bully-proof? By empowering our children to be confident we can teach them skills that last a lifetime. Bully-proofing our children can be done. The skills are teachable.

15 MAR. 2018 · Lisa Cavallaro, coach, author and creator of Bully Spin sees the epidemic of bullying differently. What she has to say might be surprising to some. Lisa believes the best way to deal with the bullying crisis isn't to try to fix or change the bullies themselves.
Lisa believes that bullies can't bully if we don't let them. We can choose what behaviors we accept from others. While that might seem like a tall order for a child who's getting pushed around at school and online, learning the skills and the confidence it takes to be bully-proof might be a required survival skill we can teach children and use in adulthood.
Lisa's revolutionary approach to helping children and adults navigate their way through bullying interactions empowers parents and children when nothing else seems to work.
You're not going to want to miss this, because let's face it, everyone knows a bully.
