Not only do we have seasons of the year, but there are seasons in life as well, whether it’s growth, shedding, or healing. People may come into our lives for a season or our perspective in life or for projects may evolve depending on the season we are in. Whether personal or professional, Audra and Coach Margaretrose take this episode to ask you to evaluate your life through the looking glass of seasons. Is your current endeavor, relationship, or lifestyle healthy? Is it growing? Is it coming into fall? What season are you in?

KEY POINTS:

- What season are you in?

- Personal and professional seasons

- Are there any bad seasons? 

- Understanding that seasons have a cycle

QUOTABLES:

“I know that as a coach, my job is to only be in a person's life, generally, for a season, for a season of learning.”

“Have a goal in mind. Introduce that to your life during the season of working on your mindset or working on your self-love or your confidence or whatever it is that you need to work on. But have a goal.”

Burnout is real and not talked about enough. Rather, you are praised and even admired when you run yourself ragged and can’t function anymore. It seems like the American dream translates into how much you can work, achieve, and acquire. But Audra and Coach Margaretrose are here to remind you that life is not all about getting more and more “stuff” and ask you to examine why you are feeling so burnt out. Are you trying to keep up with the Joneses, or are you trying to evolve and level up to a better version of yourself?

Tune in and don’t miss The Goldfish Affect's tips for stepping back, preventing burnout, and how to cope when you feel left to ashes. 

KEY POINTS:

- Is burnout normal?

- What is the American dream, really?

- “I’ll sleep when I die” culture

- Are there two sides to burnout?

- Why burnout exists when you are not aligned with your dream  

- How to prevent burnout - coping mechanisms

QUOTABLES:

“There's two sides to burnout, right? There's one side that's very unhealthy. That is, you're pushing yourself through stress and anxiety and almost to a breaking point to attain something that's not worth it. And then there's burnout that happens when you are leveling up. And you are pushing yourself into your most uncomfortable position in an effort to learn and grow and evolve.”

“Life isn't just made up of making a whole lot of money and capitalism. It's about enjoying the process of living in life and relationships.”

When it comes to goal setting or things we want to accomplish in life, we often get so wrapped up in how long it takes or doesn’t take. Then there are the moments when the clock feels like it is moving too fast or too slow, depending on the task. In reality, it is all according to our perception of time, a literal figment of our imagination and something that can not be controlled as Audra and Coach Margaretrose explain in this episode. 

Listen in as The Goldfish Affect dives into the relativity of time and why we need to understand that everything happens in the exact time it is meant. So how do you perceive time? Do you want it to be your enemy? Do you want it to be your teammate? Or maybe you want to ask for more! 

KEY POINTS:

- Time is simply a figment of our imagination

- What is Einstein Time?

- Temporary defeat versus failure 

- Is it not coming in time or are you not welcoming it?

- Where your focus goes, your energy flows

- How do you perceive time?

QUOTABLES:

“When you set a goal, and you put a date on it, and it doesn't happen in the timeframe that you want it to, chill. Stop putting all the pressures on it. It’s going to happen as long as you keep doing the action to get there. Don't let temporary defeat become your ultimate failure.”

Wrapping up the month of love, Audra and Coach Margaretrose talk commitment, and not just in the romantic sense. Commitment to your dream, business, or even buying something, are all promises we make ourselves. It’s an obligation on our side, not from another person. So take a moment to reevaluate your commitments, and the most important one of all - to yourself.

KEY POINTS:

- Have you ever broken a commitment?

- Be wise about the commitments you make and the ones you keep

- Why labels can be triggering 

- “Love is an emotion. Love is not an action.”

- Commitment is something you give, not receive 

- Stop breaking your commitments to yourself!

QUOTABLES:

“You put your own oxygen mask on first because you cannot help a single person until you help yourself to become the person you're meant to be and all of the commitments, meaning your business, your personal relationships, your friendships, family, all of it. You have got to commit to yourself that you are willing to become the person you're meant to be.”

What are you willing to compromise? What are you willing to sacrifice? These are the two keys in today's episode all about compromise versus sacrifice and what each means to you. Tune in as Audra and Coach Margaretrose share where they are unwilling to compromise and what they are willing to sacrifice, and for whom. Leading us to ask the real questions: do you really know what you want and what is worth fighting for?

KEY POINTS:

- What does compromise mean to you?

- The difficulty but necessity of communication in compromise 

- Do you know what you want?

- Where are you unwilling to compromise?

- When have you sacrificed?

QUOTABLES:

“The whole concept is creating those scenarios to have the conversations that sometimes seem difficult but are necessary in order to get to 100% win. And so when you do that, you find out that really, you can both win.”

Coming off of Valentine’s Day, in this episode, Audra and Coach Margaretrose talk relationships. Whether romantic, professional, or friendly, tune in as your hosts discuss why the road to healthier connections is communication. Let go of expectations and start having those sometimes difficult conversations, even when that communication is with yourself. Because after all, the biggest relationship you need to foster and repair is with yourself. 

KEY POINTS:

- Is it romance or expectation?

- Should your partner just know or do you have to ask?

- Why communication is the foundation of any relationship

- Cocktail versus toothbrush conversations 

- What are you attracting?

- Developing a relationship with ourselves

QUOTABLES:

“We cannot expect people that don't think like us, especially when we decided on our complete opposite to be our person, for them to get it, for them to pick up on nuances and subtleties. Because guys don't do that, and we have to be able to say, this is what I'd like.”

“You need to know that you have to fill your own cup. When you learn to fill your own cup, they will just show up. Stop looking for somebody else to fill your cup. You are enough.”

When manifesting what you want into your life, you either have absolute faith that it’s going to happen, or you have fear. And that struggle is real. Whether it's relationships, business, or pushing yourself to the next level, we often get so afraid that we hold tight to the decision-making rather than allowing faith to take over. 

In this episode, Audra and Coach Margaretrose share their greatest moments of fear and their journey of opening their arms to faith and allowing universal guidance to come through. Fear, after all, is not real. So change your perception and choose you!

 KEY POINTS:

- Is fear the absence of faith? 

- What is stronger in your mind - fear or faith?

- Why fear is not real!

- Living in absolute faith that everything will work out

- How faith is the opposite of control

- Learning to let go and have faith in the process

QUOTABLES:

“We try to control it because we're afraid of what the outcome is going to be if we don't control it. But faith is the opposite of control. Faith is releasing that control to a higher power - to the universe, to God, to whatever - and allowing that entity to help guide the process.”
