Welcome back to the podcast!

In today's episode, we talk to Alina. Alina is 29 and got a Bachelor's degree in international business. Every job she has tried that fits into that degree leaves her feeling unaligned and like there is something missing. Currently, she is working in health and benefits consulting as an analyst.

I know that a lot of you listening have been sold the college, 9-5, retirement, American Dream story from the people we love. Alina describes it as "you have to do what you hate so one day you might be able to enjoy your life". Her situation completely resonates with where I was about 5 years ago. This coaching conversation was such an important one to be having as the age of college/9-5 dies out.

I believe work is a sacred act that should be meaningful and dare I say it, even enjoyable. I really want you to consider that belief for yourself for a couple of minutes today. Here are some questions to help you dream:

-What would your work life look like if you could actually have/do what you really wanted?

-What emotions would you feel about your work/career if you were creating work from your heart?

Allow yourself to daydream about that question today.

-Then ask yourself the question "why can't I have exactly that?

You will find that the only reason you think you can't have what you want is because of fearful beliefs that others have taught you to believe. The good news? These beliefs are ONLY true if you decide they are.

In today's episode, I talk to Ashley about her relationship that ended abruptly about 8 months ago. Although Ashley is genuinelly okay on her own without a partner, she finds herself feeling stuck and feeling emotionally attached to her ex.

During the episode, we get to the root of why she feels stuck and then we go over some actionable steps that Ashley can take to move forward while still honoring the past.

In today's episode, I coach Ashley (name changed for privacy). Ashley is a 29 year old mom who is experiencing intimacy issues in her relationship with her husband. She feels like she is being put on the "back burner" in her relationship.

During this episode, I help Ashley seperate out the facts of her relationship with how she is thinking and feeling about them. This is a foundational coaching tool that I teach all my clients. At the end, I wrap up by giving Ashely some further resources and exercises to help her with her marriage.

I'm your host, Andrew Cipriano, and I created this podcast to give people access to real life coaching from the comfort and safety of their own homes. Each episode will be a real coaching session with a real person with real problems who have agreed to be vulnerable enough to get coached in order to help others. Please respect my guests. They deserve to be honored for their courage and vulnerability. Without them, this show would not be possible.

In today's episode, I introduce myself, I go over the differences between coaching and therapy and let you know what to expect from this show moving forward. *I will be releasing 2 episodes per month, every other Wednesday, and I will eventually have guest episodes with coaches in different niches so you can get value from other coaching perspectives as well.

I am so glad you're here. This podcast is going to provide you with such an incredible amount of value. If you'd like to check out my other resources or apply to be on the show, you can do so at andrewcipriano.com/links.
