You are listening to the Life Coach School Podcast with Brookestio episode number 281.

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 Brookestio.

Well, hello there, summertime friends, or whenever you're listening to this might be winter. I don't know.

But here in Texas, it is hot today, my friends. It is hot and humid.

My friends, Hawnley, tells me to stop talking about the weather.

And so I continue to talk about the weather and every time I do, and she listens to the podcast, she sends me a text.

So this one's for you, Tawnley.

By the way, French Kiss Life.

Amazing. That is her business. She's fantastic.

She completely changed my life, working with her for about a year.

But she taught me by the way she lives her life.

So check out her stuff. It's a nod to my friend, and also a nod to the weather.

Okay. Today we are talking about gifts to my future self.

And I'm going to talk about this in a very personal way, as well as teaching it to you.

One of the things that I have been doing a lot lately is really trying to study my own success and to study the tools that I use regularly and how much they impact my life.

I was having a conversation with some of my students and friends, and we were talking about how we think that there are quite a few teachers, quite a few gurus out there, teaching and proclaiming things that they're not actually doing.

And I don't necessarily think that's a bad thing.

I know people are like shocked by that, but I don't think you have to do what you teach.

There's a lot of people that teach things that educate people that don't necessarily do the things.

But for me, as it applies to life coaching, as it applies to working on my mind, I teach this stuff that I use.

And I use it on the regular, and it's funny because even with my friends, we're always quoting my work to each other.
