Lisa Russell: Understanding Your Life's Story
What’s your story? It’s a valuable when in a setting where you're meeting new people. You’ve obviously got to be careful about tone but when asked in a genuine manner, it opens the door for the story the other person wants to share, in the way they’d like to share it rather than the traditional – and tired – “so what do you do?” Perhaps more importantly, tuning into your OWN story may be far more important.
Welcome to the Catalyst Health, Wellness & Performance Coaching Podcast. Our story – the narrative we tell ourselves ABOUT ourselves - plays a critical role in the way we live our lives, the journey we’re willing to explore, and our interpretation of what happens along the way. Today’s guest, Lisa Russell, will be our guide on preparing for that journey. Lisa is a trained Storywork Counselor who specializes in narrative focused trauma care and bringing a message of living into our true selves and breaking free from false narratives. She’s seen that once we become aware of the narrative of our lives, it shines light on our current lens of how we see ourselves and the world around us. Lisa is one of our featured speaker at this year’s Rocky Mountain Coaching Retreat & Symposium in glorious Estes Park, CO and we were thrilled when she agreed to join us on the podcast.
