Leslie Smith Coaching

Lots of time to reflect and go inward over the past few months, and this continues to come up for me.

Am I actually living my life?
Am I being true to myself?
Am I being honest with myself?
Am I being the person I want to be?

Asking the hard questions and being honest with the answers... no judgement, no beating myself up... just real, honest answers and choosing to love myself.

Take this time to go in. Is there room for change?

Adapting to life at a much slower pace, and we are loving it ❤️ Something I’ve been preaching to my clients (and myself) for a long while has been SLOWING DOWN 🙏🙏🙏. When we slow down, we get to learn about our truth... the things we truly desire, the people who feel good, what we really want our lives to look like.
I read an article yesterday with recommendations to keep your life as “normal” and structured as usual. While I appreciated the article and the aim to help people maintain mental health and sense of normalcy in the crazy, I also see room to ask some bigger questions. Was your “normal” life working for you? Were you happy? Are you enjoying things in quarantine that you didn’t expect to enjoy? Just get curious and see if you can use this time as an opportunity to make some changes that fear or doubt or “x” may have been holding you back from making.

I have clients working toward permanent 3 day weekends, job changes, serious health growth, creating more time for family and adventure, healing relationships, and so much more. They are taking time to slow down and use this gift of time to create something new! ❤️🙏❤️ I currently have 2 openings for weekly coaching. DM or call to see if we are a good fit!

Happy Wednesday!

As Optimistic Prime says... “everything is probably going to be okay.” 😘

So far, we’ve survived 100% of our crappiest days! Keep going ❤️❤️❤️

A lot of my clients talk to me about motivation and where to find it...

The truth is motivation comes from taking action first!

I’m a true believer in baby steps. One right action leads to the next. Changing daily habits, over time, leads to massive change.

If you’re feeling stuck, give me a call and we can find the right action for you!

Xoxo,

Leslie

Have you thought about your goals for this year?

I know I have, and I know the anxiety and doubt that can come along with thinking about change.

What are your goals?

How can you break these goals down into small steps that not only don’t feel overwhelming, but make you excited?

One of the best lessons I learned in 2019 is that often times we confuse excitement with fear and anxiety.

What are you afraid of and could this fear actually be excitement?

Anyone else?! 😘😘

I’ve got a group for that 💪 Send a message and I’ll add you to the fun.

January 2, 2020 - January 31, 2020 ❤️

Hi friends!!

It’s been a hot minute since I’ve posted, so I’ll just acknowledge that I’ve been away 😘

I’ve been up to a lot of things!
Traveling, visiting family, spending a lot of quality time with my kiddo, friends, and partner, etc...

I’ve been taking the time to unapologetically fill up my own cup and connect with what I really want to share and teach. It’s been challenging and equally rewarding to let go of some ideas, people, and expectations so that I can give in a way that feels true and good in my bones.

So, you’ll be seeing more of me here! More writing. More experiences. More reflections. More opportunities to work with me. Just more ❤️

I’ve created a free and private group for people who experience anxiety on a pretty regular basis. If you’d like to join, you can comment below or send a message. I’ll send an invitation your way.

Happy Monday 😘

When you smile at the world, the world smiles back at you.❤️🙌😇 I found this on my car after taking a walk on the river trail. I made a conscious and committed decision to love myself and the Universe gave me a nice little pat on the back 😘 Thank you Random Fisherman Guy for the kindness 🙏

From Sawyer’s spaghetti bowl to you ❤️❤️❤️

Good morning, lovelies ☀️❤️❄️ This morning’s meditation brought me back to my shadow... the parts of me that I’ve disowned or made wrong. I’ve made myself wrong for a lot of reasons, experiencing anxiety being one of them. I’ve had anxiety since I was a child. It’s been a part of my life since I can remember. I’ve learned to work with it over the years, but for a long time I thought it made me a person who was “less than.” I tried to cope with it in many ways. I over exercised, drank too much, zoned out watching television, made myself really busy, overworked myself, etc. It wasn’t until I learned to approach it with love and curiosity that it began to dissipate. I learned to ask it questions, to make it my friend, to work with it and not against it. I still experience anxiety from time to time, but I don’t make myself wrong for it. I thank it for all that it teaches me about myself and for all of the compassion it has allowed me to experience for others. I’m grateful for my shadows. I can be with the anxiety and it lets me be ❤️❤️❤️

Back at it! ... slowly... 🤓 45 minutes with 😎 Just enough movement to wake up my body and sweat after being in bed with “the sickness” 🤢 The sickness is real, folks. Take care of yourselves and take care of each other 🙏🙏🙏

Day 2 of being in bed with croup 😷🤒🤧 It’s so hard to see my rambunctious little man so sick. I’ve enjoyed the snuggles and the rest. I’ve enjoyed just reading and writing and napping. I’ve appreciated all the support from my fam and friends in bringing us food, and blessings, and fancy humidifiers. Old Leslie would have tried to do it all alone and felt inadequate for accepting help. I would have felt unworthy of the love and support. Leslie of today is learning how to receive without criticizing myself. It feels so good to receive without all the judgement. It feels good to recognize the growth and connection in being vulnerable and asking for help. It feels good to be loved. ❤️❤️❤️

Part of what I teach in my coaching is setting healthy boundaries with technology and social media, which I get to practice. I’m human, so sometimes I fall back into old habits at times and I’m cool with that. Sometimes taking a step backwards gives you momentum to move even more powerfully forward. Everyone has setbacks, just don’t stay set back. Keep moving forward. There’s a lot to be learned in the setback. There’s humanity and relatability in the setback. The setback is a natural part of intentional personal development.

Stepping away from the phone for the day ❤️🙏❤️

Best part of not going to Snowdown... the entire theater to ourselves to be Knight of the Round Table 🤪😎👍

That’s it ❤️❤️❤️
..and if someone speaks that to you, let yourself receive ❤️

Sometimes we just have to be in it. We have to not run away from the hard stuff. This weekend I got to go back home to Indiana and spend time with my family. There were some really beautiful parts and equally difficult parts. I feel pulled to be in two very different places at once. I took yesterday off from work, social media, my phone to just be “in it”. To feel all the things I needed to feel and not run away to the places I normally run to (work, exercise, “busying”) and I’m so grateful for the people who support me while I’m in it. Also, a big thank you to for being vulnerable and encouraging us all to do the same.

Leaving Indiana today is bittersweet. I’m excited to be back in Colorado with my boy, my friends, and my clients and I’m going to really miss snuggling these babies and laughing with family ❤️❤️❤️

So many snuggles ❤️❤️❤️

Teaching class remotely today!

A new day, a new sunrise, a new name 🙏❤️🙏 Coming home to Indiana is about more than seeing family, it’s about coming home to myself and what I share with the world. I love what I do, it’s my calling, my passion, a big part of my purpose and I want to share more of what I do with you!
I’ll be sharing more workouts, nutritional bits, info on my spiritual practices, inspirational and motivational shenanigans, funny s**t, and lots more!

Happy Friday, friends!!!

Made it!!! Still no luggage, but none of that matters when I get to snuggle these nuggets ❤️❤️❤️

Getting to practice my practice at the airport today 🤪 First flight was delayed an hour, so I’m missing my connection in Dallas... hopefully getting to Louisville tonight 🙏 I’m looking forward to meeting some new people and making some connections during my looooong layover ❤️❤️❤️

One of my meditation spots today... in my car, in front of Grease Monkey 😊 There’s no wrong way to meditate. There’s no wrong place to meditate. I don’t meditate to look good or to check it off my “to-do” list. I meditate to bring myself back home, back to my authentic self. It’s a practice I can take anywhere and everywhere. Thank you for your guidance today!
