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.

Hey friends.

Woo! I just got home. I've been traveling. I've been working. I've been celebrating with my family.

It's been amazing. I had an incredible Christmas in Colorado at my home in Colorado with my amazing ex-husband, my two kids,

and my new boyfriend, and my friends, Tanya, and her daughter. And it was just a beautiful time.

And I'm going to talk much more about all of that and some of the work that I've been doing that I want to share with you all.
