Confessions of a coach - I struggle to share my emotions

On this episode I share my personal struggles with emotions. Growing up never being able to express myself openly and vulnerably, as an adult I struggle to communicate with others at times. This happens mainly when I'm upset or if I've had an argument with someone. I go into myself and become very quiet. I struggle to speak and it really affects me and others around me too. Thankfully it doesn't happen often and I am always working on improving it. I wanted to share my recent experiences and shed light on a topic many struggle with communicating. I'd love to hear from you so please leave your comments and feedback. Please rate this podcast and share with your friends so we can help as many people as possible. Thank you for being part of the Happy As Larry family, be amazing, be fantastic and be phenomenal today. You can find us on iTunes, YouTube, Facebook and LinkedIn, as well as our website which is www.happyaslarrygroup.com.

In this incredible episode Tisha and I go deep into a very serious ongoing topic which is BULLYING. It has made headlines, the news, it has destroyed lives and it has also taken lives.

To parents, friends, teachers, co-workers, take the time to listen and help us raise awareness on this ongoing issue. Tisha is doing an incredible job with her company Bully Aware and I recommend checking it out on www.bullyaware.com, you can find her on Facebook and also on LinkedIn.
