I'm excited to share this conversation with you. My guest Phil Goddard and I are taking a deep dive into the topic of love. Phil is a romantic at heart and has written a couple of books about love and I was intrigued to hear more about his journey and why love and how he brings that into his coaching practice.
In this episode we talk about:
- Why Phil embarked on a journey to understand love;
- What self-love is and what it is not;
- Why life is more enjoyable and fun when we stop searching; and
- The innate wisdom within every human being.
Here are a few thought bomb takeaways:
- What would love do? It is a great question to ask yourself when you are stuck, struggling or unsure of something, reflecting on this question can bring more clarity about the situation. It’s the type of inquiry that brings out the best in us;
- Love is something we define through our own personal lens. That lens changes from moment to moment. Knowing that love is an idea allows us to approach it in a lighthearted and fun way;
- When we are feeling stuck, heartbroken, depressed, etc., it is a gift to share that this moment and more so the feelings are transient and will pass; and
- When you are searching or embarking on a journey of self-love it is really a denial of accepting or embracing the love that is innate and lies within.
Until next time: Be well. Be inspired. Be You.
