You are listening to the Life Coach School Podcast with Brook Castillo episode number 148.

Welcome to the Life Coach School Podcast, where it's all about real clients, real problems, and real coaching.

And now your host, Master Coach Instructor, Brook Castillo.

Well, hello there my friends.

How are you? I'm doing amazingly well.

I am sitting at my desk in my cozy pajamas.

Every once in a while, I'm at home. One of the things I'd love to do in the morning is read.

I curl up, we have like this cheese lounge as part of our couch, and I put like six really soft blankets on it, and I lay there, and I read.

And today, I'm not supposed to be working at all today, but it's so quiet in my house for some reason that I just felt like, hey, I'm going to record my podcast.

Because I will love the topic that I'm talking about today, which is Mind Over Matter.

And it's the third part of my four part series on resilience.

And one of the things that I do a lot of is I think about my podcasts, I think about my clients when I'm on my walks and when I'm reading and when I'm just hanging out, I feel like there's so much time I spend preparing for my actual work that I've been really excited to do this podcast for you.

So I'm thrilled to be here.

This has been such an exciting time for us. We have involved our kids who are 15 Connors 15 in Christian 16 in growing our business really we have switched our business model.

And we now send out physical products. We send out a box as a bonus to anyone who signs up for self coaching scholars. And then we send out an envelope of books and goodies every month for all of our members.

And so it's been really cool to involve the kids in that process. There's an outsource program that we can sign up for that we just handle it all for us.

But I feel really strongly about us doing it. I feel like there's so much more opportunity for me to bring my kids into my business and to show them kind of how we earn our money and what goes into it.

And so that has been such a delight for me to incorporate them in. So last night we were all sitting here and Connor was printing labels and Connors friend Gavin was over and he was getting your letters ready to put into the box.

And Christian was out in our manufacturing site.

AKA the garage putting the boxes together and putting the labels on and I just feel like there's so much love that's going into these products and these packages that are going out to people's home. So that has really been such a thrill for me.

And my girlfriend Erica who's now my colleague working with me on the self coaching scholars came up and spent the day working with us. And so it just felt like a bustling little business that we have going on here.

So I'm just so honored and thrilled to own this company that is employing people and taking care of so many of our customers. So well.
