Have you ever tried feeling grateful, and it just felt so forced?
In our 11th episode of Coaching With Mastery and Elegance With Tijen Genco, we discuss cultivating authentic gratitude.
Many believe gratitude is about using tools such as gratitude journals, affirmations, and positive thinking, but Tijen sees it differently. She sees it as welcoming, invoking, and appreciating what is and the value an experience can offer us.
Tijen calls out what she sees as “positivity bullying” and calls for the grace and spaciousness to go into the depths of our emotions, which she sees as an invitation to know yourself more deeply, to develop more strength and resilience, and to experience a more holistic way of being human.
We also discuss how to go from losing power or victimization to self-sovereignty without the judgment attached to our cultural norms.
Tune in to this episode full of real-life examples illuminating this powerful journey!
In our 12th episode of Coaching With Mastery & Elegance With Tijen Genco, we welcome the new year by discussing resolutions. Year after year, we’re bombarded by “new year, new you” messaging that promotes resolution-making, goal-setting, and buying programs that promise to fulfill these goals.
Tijen offers a different approach based on self-reflection that helps us tap into our intrinsic motivation, which she calls a “re-solutioning.” She invites us to consider our relationship to our goals and question whether they align with our values.
As we discuss feedback, the conversation takes an unexpected turn: What makes it difficult to give our clients feedback, and how Tijen gives feedback? Hint: it’s not the “feedback sandwich.”
Tijen also offers a beautiful way to cultivate more compassion, so be sure to tune in to our first episode of 2023!
