As someone who's battled a lifelong fear of rejection and anxiety, we’ll discuss how curiosity and meaningful inquiries have shaped my journey as a coach and therapist. There is great value in stepping outside your comfort zone, engaging with others, and building connections through open-ended questions. Learn how these questioning techniques not only reduce stress and anxiety but also provide transformational clarity and strengthen relationships in both personal and professional settings.

Reflecting on my personal journey, I share how the evolution from a controlled, teaching-centric approach to a more liberating, coaching-oriented mindset has brought immense joy and fulfillment into my life and the lives of those I work with. We are joined by Adam, also known by the affectionate nickname 'Lloyd', a valued team member of Decide Your Legacy, to explore the significant impact of coaching through storytelling and real-life experiences. As a host and a seasoned professional with 25 years of experience in both coaching and therapy, we discuss the four main differences between coaching and counseling: the coach's role as a partner, coaching's emphasis on thriving and future potential, its action-driven approach, and the self-improvement and accountability it fosters. Together with Lloyd, we discuss actionable insights for listeners to embrace change, face their fears, and pursue a life of purpose and transformation. This episode is not just about listening; it's an invitation to step into uncomfortable territories that promise growth, learning, and ultimately, living a legacy today.

These decisions range from focusing on dreams, choosing an outward perspective, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, and learning to cope with discomfort, among others. Adopting such choices will contribute to one's overall mental health, personal relationships, and overall sense of happiness. Practical actions are recommended throughout to help implement these decisions. The importance of embracing change and discomfort, and not going in alone are emphasized. By doing so individuals are encouraged to live a life they would want to be remembered for.

In this episode of the Decide Your Legacy Podcast, I explore the idea of reaching out to new people and turning them into friends or contacts. We delve into how we can view new faces as interesting people and opportunities for growth. I share experiences where I did something uncomfortable, which resulted in forming deeper connections with others. We will also discuss how individuals can use a 'how can I help?' mindset to build connections. Moreover, I explain how viewing conflict as positive can be beneficial to creating new relationships. Through personal anecdotes and insights, I emphasize the importance of taking action, challenging personal mindsets, and helping others to facilitate transformation and personal growth.

  • The one phrase I often preface statements with is…
  • What are you currently avoiding
  • The impact of avoiding things
  • Lower your expectations
  • Stop giving your emotions power (but be aware of them)
  • Peace comes after courageous action
  • Avoidance will end up destroying your life
  • Live the life you were meant to live
  • When people show you who they are, believe them
  • Be willing to identify the red flags
  • Happiness is not something you can find
  • Delayed gratification is the name of the game

  • What is the big challenge you struggle to take responsibility for
  • The cost of giving your power away
  • Focusing more on the solutions
  • The freedom that comes from taking responsibility
  • You can own your thoughts and perspective
  • How addiction is driven first by habit of thought
  • Owning the emotions that you experience
  • Model to yourself how you feel
  • Power to own the actions you take

  • Who or what do you give your power away to?
  • You have power over your thoughts (but not control)
  • Staying productively busy
  • How neurofeedback works
  • You have power over your emotions (but not control)
  • Figuring out the root of your emotions
  • You have power over your response to others
  • Just try your best when you get flustered
  • Asking clarifying questions
  • Create an intentional or planned response
  • You have power over the actions that you take
  • Actions are your own responsibility

Summary/Abstract


Adam Gragg begins by encouraging listeners to rate and review the podcast to help it grow organically. He then introduces the topic of today's episode: how travel can improve mental health and transform one's life. To illustrate this, he shares two risks he has taken recently: playing at a men's golf club and not having enough money to pay for his round of golf. Despite feeling embarrassed and the eye-roll from one of the players, Adam had a great time. He believes that taking risks and doing new things is a great way to improve one's mental health. Adam Gragg is a legacy coach.


The speaker is a mental health professional who helps people find clarity that allows them to face their fears and live out their desired legacy. He encourages listeners to think of themselves as both students and teachers and challenges them to describe a goal to a six year old. He then introduces two special guests: his sister Erica, who has traveled to over 85 countries and is rated by Conde Nast as one of the top travel experts, and his 16 year old daughter Emerson, who has been to Europe twice and all over the US. The speaker wants listeners to think of a place they want to travel to and write down their biggest fears about it. He and Emerson recently went on an RV trip around Utah.


The conversation between the hosts and Erica Gragg began with them discussing her travels over the past year. She has now visited ninety countries, the most recent being Egypt. She was captivated by the culture and history of the country, particularly the pyramids of Giza. They then discussed Colorado National Parks, and how she had trouble packing light for the trip. She mentioned she will have to do that for her school's trip to Ireland, Scotland, and Great Britain. They then talked about how they were currently in Venice, enjoying their stay at the Centurion Hotel, and their plans to also visit Verona and Milan before flying back to the U.S.


Erica and Adam have a conversation about the most exotic places Erica has visited. She has been to Egypt, Morocco, Turkey, Greece, Italy, and Tanzania. She has plans to go to Bhutan, Rwanda, Botswana, and some new islands in Greece. She also recently visited the Dolomites in Italy. Adam jokes that the longer he is in Italy, the more his accent becomes Italian.

  • What it looks like to be a jerk (but nicely)
  • Assertiveness and honesty
  • Taking risks in your own life
  • Maintaining your values
  • Being willing to express your passions
  • Red flags to avoid
  • How others expectations can negatively influence us

]]> I’ve been single for a few years now.  And as I have started dating again I became acutely aware of some things that I was doing that would make me more or less attractive to others.  Whether looking for a romantic partner or a great friend, the things we discuss today can serve to draw others to yourself.  On this episode we discuss:

  • Being you as your best self
  • What it looks like to be a jerk (but nicely)
  • Assertiveness and honesty
  • Taking risks in your own life
  • Maintaining your values
  • Being willing to express your passions
  • Red flags to avoid
  • How others expectations can negatively influence us
