Tell them! đź“ž

Hi friend, Do you struggle to show the care you have for others? Maybe you assume people already know how much they mean to you, or you're waiting to find the perfect words. You could create moments of connection, but instead, they pass you by, and you tell yourself you'll say the important things later. Instead, let people experience more of what's already true. Try this: 1. Notice.When someone crosses your mind, pay attention to it. Maybe you remember a conversation you had with them. Maybe something reminds you of them. Maybe you simply wonder how they’re doing. Instead of letting the thought pass, send them a text. It takes less than a minute, but it reminds someone they’re not forgotten. 2. Say the thing they can’t know.Don’t assume people already know what you’re thinking. Tell your friend you admire them. Tell your sibling you appreciate how they’ve shown up for you. Tell your partner what they did that made you feel loved. Tell your coworker the way they made your day easier. The thoughts that stay in your head can't become part of someone else’s experience. 3. Keep it simple.Your message doesn't have to be perfect or profound. Just share it! The goal is letting people experience just a little bit more of what's already in your heart. You might make someone’s day—and deepen a relationship at the same time. If you’re here to practice showing up more fully in your relationships, welcome. I’m glad you’re here. Coach Jose 💛

Hi friend, You're probably familiar with this feeling: You've made plans. You said "I'll be there," but then that I-do-want-to-go feeling hits. Maybe the work week was more draining than you expected, or your mental health is at a low point. And now you have a decision to make: to go or to stay. But I want to remind you that the decision doesn't have to be black or white. Because you're a complicated human. It's normal to be tired and still want to see your friends. You can stay home and...
Hi friend, If you're one of those people who feels like you always have to be doing something, we might have a problem. However, I don't want you to swing the complete opposite direction. Don't do nothing! Instead, give yourself a little bit more room before your automatic habit to be productive takes over. Here are the two questions you can ask yourself when you have the urge to be productive for productivity's sake: What happens if I don't do the thing? What am I working toward? Take a...
Hi friend, Here's some hard truth: Sometimes we mess up, and sometimes other peoples' feedback about us is right. We were late. We got defensive. We weren't listening. We hurt someone else. We need to own these mistakes. But, at the same time, be careful not to let, "I fucked up," become, "I'm a fuck up." ...becuase you're not!Talking about 1) what happened and 2) who you are are very different things.You can fuck something up, take responsibility for it, apologize, learn something, and still...
