00:00:00.341 --> 00:00:04.671
Well, hello and welcome to Connect, inspire, create.

00:00:04.671 --> 00:00:14.993
I'm your host, carol Clegg, a progress and mindset business coach, here to help you thrive and flourish and turn those challenges into opportunities for growth.

00:00:14.993 --> 00:00:16.263
I'm so pleased you're here.

00:00:16.263 --> 00:00:25.032
Join me for the discussions that I hope will not only encourage you, but also provide the dose of inspiration that you might just need today.

00:00:25.032 --> 00:00:39.627
This podcast is all about giving you your weekly dose of practical strategies, motivation and insightful conversations designed to boost your business skills, personal growth and happiness.

00:00:39.627 --> 00:00:41.423
Well, welcome here.

00:00:41.463 --> 00:00:58.152
You are listening to a Mindful Moments, and this one today is actually a time listening to a Mindful Moments, and this one today is actually a time-sensitive Mindful Moments, and I am going to be talking about part of what I use in my coaching program, which is supplied by Positive Intelligence.

00:00:58.152 --> 00:01:01.543
It's an incredible take with you for life.

00:01:01.543 --> 00:01:04.129
Foundational building blocks fund.

00:01:04.129 --> 00:01:29.055
Oh, there's just so many words that I want to use to describe it, but why I say this is time sensitive is we have had some really exciting changes within the what we call the pq app that we have available for clients to start with the foundational training, and these are an online app that has teachings, videos, et cetera.

00:01:29.055 --> 00:01:52.430
There's just so much more to explain than I can right now in this short podcast, but I have the availability for people to join me, literally tomorrow being Friday, because this episode comes out on Thursday or the last Friday of this month, and the reason for that is 2025 is going to bring about huge, huge changes.

00:01:53.132 --> 00:02:08.235
So the place where one wants to start and what got me into recording this was thinking of what gets in my way of taking action and my top saboteurs are one of them is the avoider.

00:02:08.235 --> 00:02:26.973
And the avoider really can play havoc when you try and hold yourself accountable within your business and trying to make steps, trying to make progress, trying not to be overwhelmed by something that just feels so huge that you don't even know where to start.

00:02:26.973 --> 00:02:37.104
But the joy and the pleasure when you can diminish the strength of the avoider and let me tell you that the avoider does have strengths.

00:02:37.104 --> 00:02:50.848
But what happens with our saboteurs is they know that they were our strengths but we tend to overuse them, and then, when we overuse them, we find that they get in our way of making progress.

00:02:50.848 --> 00:03:26.008
So my focus, I guess, just on this episode, is that avoider, that avoider that can be so loud and get in your way and stop you from taking action definitely can be quietened, and I myself stepped into a situation which I had been avoiding for a super long time and I moved myself into, before taking action, a space of mindfulness, a space of contemplation, a space of ease and flow.

00:03:26.008 --> 00:03:44.014
I'm a space to be confident in moving into that space that I was avoiding, and the feeling of actually having taken that action step and being comfortable in doing that is so rewarding in so many ways.

00:03:44.014 --> 00:04:05.794
So for myself, I have just found today the motivation to move forward and take action on other steps in my business, from marketing to reaching out to clients, to even just recording a video that I did for LinkedIn and then even coming here to record this podcast episode for you.

00:04:05.834 --> 00:04:38.665
Today happened because I felt the joy and the satisfaction of having taken the first step, and that is what we learn about through the PQ program is that, yes, we have these saboteurs and they have sage steps to counter them, and the avoiders sage step is taking that first step them and the avoiders sage step is taking that first step, so that initiate the action on what you've been avoiding, take that first step and then celebrate.

00:04:38.665 --> 00:04:39.769
Celebrate the progress.

00:04:39.769 --> 00:04:41.831
But I would love.

00:04:41.831 --> 00:04:44.418
When I talk about being a time sensitive offer.

00:04:44.418 --> 00:04:57.793
I have an opportunity to join the PQ program from now until the end of the year and allow yourself to just experience what a difference it can make.

00:04:57.793 --> 00:05:19.360
But the starting point is actually doing the saboteur assessment, and by taking the saboteur assessment it'll take you maybe 10, 15 minutes to do that you can see what is playing up in your life right now and what is getting in the way of you making progress.

00:05:19.360 --> 00:05:22.649
And that can be progress in many different areas.

00:05:22.649 --> 00:05:30.613
It can be on your business, it can be in your relationships or it can just be on your health and your own overall well-being.

00:05:31.696 --> 00:05:37.177
But my invitation is for you to take that saboteur assessment, which you'll find on my website.

00:05:37.177 --> 00:05:44.940
It links you directly back to the Positive Intelligence site and they are the ones who will send you the final results.

00:05:44.940 --> 00:05:53.798
And then come on board and book a discovery call with me to just go through huh, what are these saboteurs that you're talking about?

00:05:53.798 --> 00:05:55.677
What is my assessment showing me?

00:05:55.677 --> 00:06:10.865
And I'll just walk you through some of those steps and then you can decide yes, I'd like to jump on board and take advantage of the powerful new PQ2 program before 2024 ends.

00:06:10.865 --> 00:06:12.240
I want to find some peace.

00:06:12.240 --> 00:06:17.961
I want to find some peace, I want to find some happiness, I want to find some ease and flow in my life.

00:06:18.021 --> 00:06:21.732
And just to touch on the strengths of the avoider before I leave you.

00:06:21.732 --> 00:06:25.040
The avoider loves to seek peace and harmony.

00:06:25.040 --> 00:06:29.735
Nothing wrong with that, both within yourself and for others.

00:06:29.735 --> 00:06:46.105
And the avoider can show tendencies of being so easygoing and with an even keeled temperament, flexible and adaptable and a tendency to be positive and relatively non-judgmental of others.

00:06:46.105 --> 00:06:48.177
Nothing wrong with those qualities.

00:06:48.177 --> 00:06:58.023
Those are the qualities we want to use, but when the avoider gets you stuck and you don't take any steps, then we don't even find access to these strengths.

00:06:58.423 --> 00:07:09.581
So I'll pop in the show notes, the place that you can take your saboteur assessment If you want to jump on board before 2024 ends and do.

00:07:09.581 --> 00:07:19.709
The reason I'm wanting you to do this now is it's a six-week training, and then I would love for you to still take advantage before the end of the year is upon us and busyness gets in the way.

00:07:19.709 --> 00:07:25.658
I will be offering this program next year, in 2025, but in a different concept.

00:07:25.658 --> 00:07:27.136
It'll be a 90-day program.

00:07:27.136 --> 00:07:29.476
So check out what's available now.

00:07:29.476 --> 00:07:39.639
But if this isn't the right time and 2025 is when you think it might be something you'd be interested in, I'd still love for you to take that saboteur assessment.

00:07:39.639 --> 00:07:57.497
I'd love to get on a coaching call with you, because it's always good to just meet somebody in person and talk to them and see if they're the right fit for you, if the vibe is right, if the connection is right, and I'd just love to be a safe space for you to talk and I'm happy to listen.

00:07:57.497 --> 00:09:09.988
So until the next episode, thank you.

00:09:10.969 --> 00:09:21.503
If you are looking for tools to build powerful habits around a lifelong positive mindset, then I'd love to explore what results you are looking for in your life and your business.

00:09:21.503 --> 00:09:23.765
Every coach needs a coach.

00:09:23.765 --> 00:09:25.114
I'm sure you've heard that before.

00:09:25.114 --> 00:09:36.072
As a mindset and accountability coach, I work with women coaches in midlife to find balance in their business endeavors and prepare their foundation for a positive mindset.

00:09:36.072 --> 00:09:58.573
By blending my personalized accountability and mindset coaching along with the powerful Positive Intelligence program, you'll learn about saboteurs and sage powers and gain lifelong tools to create a shift in all areas of your life, from personal to professional, and reduce the negative self-talk and discover more self-love.
