Mission Imperfect: navigating life with coaches Kirsty and Kathryn

We’ve all found ourselves in situations where we are waiting for the right moment. Problem is, will that moment always just arise and announce itself conveniently for us? Probably not!

Waiting can be wise, keeping us from potential discomfort, but it can actually create discomfort of its own – and the longer it continues it can get harder to stop waiting! 

We discuss why we play the waiting game, what we are actually waiting for (it’s often not the moment, it’s a feeling), and perhaps we build ‘readiness’ rather than find it.
(And stay tuned for next week’s episode in which we share some tips on starting something, even with doubt) 
Today’s question for you to mull over:
‘Is there something in your life that you have been saying ‘not yet’ to, but the ‘when’ part doesn’t seem to be getting any closer?
PS Kathryn is no longer waiting to get a cat – in between recording and releasing this episode, one year old Nellie has joined the family!

Making assumptions about what people are thinking and feeling based solely on our interpretation of nuances of behaviour and manner can lead to lots of wrong conclusions and misunderstandings.
So, following on from our episode on the perils of mindreading, this week - in a more or less bitesized episode - we’re offering you tips, tools and techniques to stop mindreading.

You may not think you have psychic powers, but the chances are that you’re doing a fair bit of mindreading.
Don’t believe it? Then join us for this episode to see if you recognise any of the ways of jumping to big conclusions on very little evidence - and the problems that doing so can cause.
As well as the important question “What the hell’s going on if Kathryn or Kirsty refuse a biscuit?”, we invite you to consider: 
In which area of your life are you most prone to mindreading - and how accurate is it?

“No” may well be a complete sentence, but it’s a hell of a lot easier to keep giving a fake “Yes” than to suddenly switch to just saying “No”, isn’t it?
Following on from our episode on Thinking No, Saying Yes, this week we’re offering you tips, tools and techniques for Thinking No, Saying No - when you want to.
