Laughter Yoga Teacher and fellow life coach, Erica Buchholz, is all about play nowadays but that's only because she she got sick (quite literally as well as metaphorically) of living the uptight academic life.

In this episode Erica tells us how she was able to transform from a rigid life to one of laughter and play.

We also teach you a fun tool that you can use on yourself to access your subconscious mind and solve limiting thought patterns that keep you stuck.

In between we take pit stops at:

- Getting more play into your life

- What is this whole life coaching thing anyway

- What you need about finding the right coach for you

Key Nuggets:

Getting more play into your life:

Erica shares her story of living the uptight life and how getting ill from it led her to find a life that’s light, flexible and playful. She teaches us the benefits of laughter and how to easily get more play in our life with practices like laughter yoga.

What’s this whole life coaching and why get one?

Life coaches seem to be popping up everywhere and for good reason - life coaches can help you get over hurdles that are currently keeping you from living fully or achieving the goals that you’re striving for. Erica and I both had coaches and it immensely helped us with our growth.

It can be confusing to understand what life coaching is though. There are so many kinds out there. This confusion might be causing you to miss out on getting the help that you really need.

We discuss what life coaching is in hopes that it will give you a better idea of it so that if it’s exactly what you need you can start taking action right away.

  • Life coaches help you take your life to the next level no matter where you are

  • They challenge you against the things that keep you stuck

How to find a life coach that’s right for you:

Just like how you wouldn’t go to just any random hairdresser to do your hair, you want to do some due diligence when finding a coach. If you want to turn your black hair to blonde, you’re going to look for a hairdresser that knows how you do that. Otherwise, you might end up with orange hair (trust me, I’ve been there). If you need help improving your relationship, you’ll want to find a coach who specializes in that. If you have a ton of self-doubt and want to start a business or become a yoga teacher, you’ll want to find a coach who specializes in that.

We give you specific pointers of what to consider when looking for a coach.
