How do you develop your unique content into a repeatable framework you can use with your clients? In today’s episode, I’m sharing how I created the REALIFE Process® as a framework I use with a variety of clients in different contexts, and how you can do the same in your business. This episode covers: How to map out your exact steps and process for helping people get unstuck Identifying the signature components that are unique to YOU What it looks like to test your content now and adjust as you go If you have content that is repeatable and there are consistent steps along the way, you have a process.

What would you give to have a tool you can take with you anywhere that helps you to notice your adaptive patterns and move to something more authentic? In this replay episode, we are sharing one of the key tools we use here at the REALIFE Process® called the N.O.W. Process Tool. Through the lens of the Enneagram and the N.O.W. Process, we've learned that thoughts produce feelings, feelings drive actions, and actions or behaviors lead to results. Both brain research and Biblical truth remind us that we have the ability to "renew our minds." We're so excited to share with you our N.O.W. Process Tool that invites you to name your circumstance, identify your adaptive thoughts, feelings, actions, and current results in order to realistically reframe the thought to something believable and authentic that renews your feelings, actions and eventually changes behaviors and results. Pull up a chair to this conversation as two of our REALIFE Process Coaches, Terri Johnson and Erica Vinson share: The components of the N.O.W. Process Tool Personal examples from REALIFE that display the power of renewing your mind Practical ways to identify thoughts and feelings that allow you to create new actions and results We hope this episode helps you in your own REALIFE and in the work you do to help others.

As we move into the last quarter of the year, what needs to shift for you? In this episode, I’m sharing a practice that helps me decide what to stop, start, and continue in my personal and professional life.   We’ll consider three areas: Prune: What do I need to remove or cut back? Plant: What is something new I want to begin? Tend: What do I need to give attention or care to?   By taking the time to identify what we want to grow in this next season, we can decide how to spend our time and what projects to focus on. I encourage you to set aside some time to reflect and name what you need to prune, plant, and tend to in order to flourish in your life and work.   Mentioned in This Episode: Episode 68: Exploring the REALIFE Process® - REALIFE Time Episode 82: Connecting Your Values and Your Time Episode 119: The Enneagram + Time Management + the REALIFE Process® Episode 117: Mind Mapping–A Tool for Discovery John 15:1-16 Romans 12:1-2   REALIFE Resources Mentioned in This Episode:If you’re ready to discover what matters to you, download our FREE REALIFE Needs and Values Assessment.
