| 0:00.0 | You are listening to the Life Coach School Podcast with Brook Castillo episode number 357. |
| 0:07.8 | Welcome to the Life Coach School Podcast, where it's all about real clients, real problems, and real coaching. |
| 0:16.4 | And now your host, Master Coach Instructor Brook Castillo. |
| 0:21.2 | Hello, my friends. We have been having some fun in scholars. My boyfriend and I taught a class last week. |
| 0:33.8 | We didn't actually teach a class. We're doing what we call conversations about relationships. |
| 0:38.1 | So we're doing a series of calls in scholars where we're basically having back and forth conversations. |
| 0:45.4 | And during these conversations, we are answering any questions that anyone has of us and our relationship and what's it been like for us since we started dating and what it was like for us to get divorced and in between divorce and dating and this week, we're going to talk about dating and we have like a whole series of topics that we're going to be talking about. |
| 1:06.5 | One of which is the 90 day relationship, which is a concept that I created in my mind, basically, and that we did the first three months that we were dating each other and it was so awesome and powerful that we've had so many people ask us about it that we want to teach it. |
| 1:25.4 | We want to teach a class on it. |
| 1:26.9 | So we're doing these conversations about relationships in scholars to get your insights on relationships, to get your experiences on dating and being a new relationships and on divorce and on being married and we want to create the 90 day relationship so you can go through this process with someone that you are currently in a relationship, you can do a reset and start this 90 day process with them. |
| 1:54.5 | Or with someone that you're newly dating or use this process to find someone to date to have the 90 day relationship. |
| 2:02.7 | I found my 90 day relationship on an app on the Bumble app and so we're going to talk about how I did that how he did that how we were on the apps, the dating, we're going to talk about all the things. |
| 2:16.0 | So it's fun. It's exciting. We're talking just having conversations right now, getting input from everyone, loving it. |
| 2:24.2 | One of the things that we did because there were so many people on the call and so many questions as we printed out all the questions and went through each of them and we're just having the time of our lives. |
| 2:35.0 | We're having so much fun. It's so exciting to be able to do this kind of work and just love it so much. |
| 2:41.0 | And so as we're reading through the questions, one of the questions that came up the most is, brook, why did you get a divorce and the curiosity around my choice to get a divorce. |
| 2:51.8 | And even though I've explained it on the podcast and I'm going to, you know, obviously explain it and answer that question as many times as I need to within scholars. |
| 3:00.6 | People seem to be very unsatisfied with my answer. And so I wanted to address it in a podcast. |
| 3:07.0 | My answer is because I wanted to. I got a divorce because I wanted to get a divorce. |
| 3:14.6 | Why is that hard to accept for people? |
| 3:20.1 | I've been thinking a lot about it. I've been thinking about why is it hard for other people to hear that I did something very significant, very life-altering to me and to my family because I wanted to. |
| 3:37.1 | And I think that it reveals so many of the issues that we deal with in life coaching and that we deal with in our lives and that we deal with in society. |
