Today I’m doing something a little different: I’m sharing an episode of my friend Marie Forleo’s show where I am the guest!  She asks me about my own origin story, shares a listener question, and we talk about finding the courage to express preferences, desires, and dealbreakers– And how you might express them differently in close vs. distant relationships.  I hope you enjoy today’s episode, including the chance to see me as the interviewee rather than the interviewer.

I am so excited to have my pal and award-winning podcast host, John R. Miles, on the show to talk about his new book, Passion Struck: Twelve Powerful Principles to Unlock Your Purpose and Ignite Your Most Intentional Life.  I'm excited because intentional living is how I live my life, and I teach all of my clients and students to do it, too. There is nothing quite like harnessing the mind-blowing power of our own intention.  But what does that look like in practice? John is here to break it down with examples from his own life and case studies from the book. I hope you enjoy this conversation with John as much as I did.

You are not alone, my friend. I am not a big fan of Valentine’s Day myself.  What if we did something different? What if we focused on the power of self-love this year? What if you fell wildly in love with yourself this Valentine’s Day?

Welcome to a super special edition of The Terri Cole Show where I am doing something I've never done before: interviewing my husband, Victor Juhasz, along with bestselling author, Steven Pressfield.  Vic and Steven collaborated on Steven's new book, The Daily Pressfield, which is an excellent companion for anyone giving a creative endeavor their all. (Currently me, writing my second book!) Vic provided the illustrations and the book is filled with Steven's wisdom from the many years he's spent in the writing trenches.  In this conversation, we talk about how the book and illustrations came together, our experiences with resistance and creativity, imposter syndrome, fear, self-sabotage, inspiration, and so much more.  You can get a signed copy here: https://sassmediallc.com/products/the-daily-pressfield-hardcover-signed-copy Read the show notes for today's episode at terricole.com/581

Welcome to part two of a two-part series I am doing on high-functioning codependency.  In part one, I talked about the high price we pay for over-giving, over-doing, and over-functioning. I also share my personal and professional experiences with it. If you missed it, read it here. In this part, I break down the 6 archetypes of high-functioning codependency and give you tools and strategies you can use to free yourself from it.  When you raise your awareness of these disordered behaviors, you can change them. You do not have to live in the endless exhaustion of high-functioning codependency. Read the show notes for today's episode at terricole.com/580

Are you endlessly giving and doing for all the people all the time? Do people come to you when they need something because they know you’ll get it done, no matter what? If you are nodding your head, you might just be a high-functioning codependent, and this episode is for you. I am covering what high-functioning codependency is, the considerable cost of being a high-functioning codependent (on you, your relationships, and others), and sharing my own experiences with these disordered relational behaviors– both personally and professionally.

I don't know about you, but the title definitely resonates with me! In this conversation, Farnoosh shares how she shifted from being limited by fear to constructively responding to fear. She also offers a few tips you can use if you struggle with fear around money and reveals what we can learn from fear if we allow it a chance. Read the show notes at terricole.com/577

Do you think true love is never having to say you are sorry? Do you think boundaries are unnecessary with real love? How do you feel about unconditional love? Do you believe it exists? Or that it is something to aspire to? Many of us were indoctrinated to believe in these myths about love, but from my 25 years as a psychotherapist and my own experience, I believe real, epic, healthy, and amazing love is boundaried and conditional. Read on to discover why. I also cover questions you can ask to unearth your downloaded blueprint around unconditional love and I’m sharing some concrete steps you can take toward better, healthier love in your relationships.
