Wake Up and Pay Attention

Ready to change your narrative? Let your internal dialogue work for you

Did you know that your internal dialogue affects your emotional state and your body language? Have you ever noticed that negative self-talk leads you to slouch and even hide, but positive self-talk leads you to an open and confident posture?
That’s because language, emotion, and the body are interconnected. 
And so, whatever we tell ourselves, also shows in our mood and becomes evident with how our body reacts. 
That’s the three circles model that I talk about in this episode.
I also discuss how powerful our language is, and we often don’t see that. Language shapes our perspectives and human behavior, the impact of internal conversation, and how effective communication can make or break relationships.
Ready to change your narrative? 
Tune in to this episode to discover the impact of communication on our personal growth.

Feeling stuck? Discover how self-awareness can drive your personal growth

Have you ever wondered why you see yourself differently than the way other people do?
Truth is, we are all unique observers. 
No one sees or observes the same way. So, for us to become better observers of ourselves, our starting point is self-awareness. For us to change, we have to first notice that we need to change, looking deeper into our behavioral patterns.
In this episode, I start with the foundational ideas that are important to create change for personal growth and self-improvement. 
As we go along, you may find your “aha moments”, or the paradigm shifts that will lead you to change the way you see things, how you act, and the outcomes of your actions.
This is just the start of our journey towards personal transformation. Tune in as I share insights about mindfulness and self-awareness, and how those lead to personal growth.

The art of self-awareness: Mastering ontological design for personal growth

What has been the most powerful thing that has happened in my life?
This question prompted me to decide what I wanted to do in life. And this can help redefine your life too.
I am Mark Robertson. I provide Executive and Personal coaching for personal development through ontological design. 
Growing up as a military brat with a difficult family background, it took me three decades to work on self-improvement while examining my way of being - my thinking and beliefs, my emotions and moods, and my body posture.
And with the birth of this podcast, “Wake Up and Pay Attention,” I want to share how this practice that brought my personal transformation could also help you and significantly reshape different areas of your life. 
It’s time to get off living your life on autopilot. Join me as we explore the power of personal growth, self-observation, and the importance of being present. Change is not yet too late. Let’s embark on this transformative journey together!

Welcome to Wake Up and Pay Attention!

Welcome to Wake Up and Pay Attention - the podcast that helps you create powerful, sustainable change from the inside-out.
 
I’m your host, Mark Robertson. I’m an Executive Coach with over 25 years of experience in Leadership Development and Professional Coaching. 
 
If you've ever felt like you'd really like to make life changes but you’re stuck, you’re bombarded by the noise of the world around you, and struggling to find your footing, you're in the right place. 
 
Together, we're going to explore new frameworks and tools that will have you see your life in a new way and awaken you to the possibilities of your life.
 
This show is about having honest, open conversations about the authentic, human experience – the kind where you'll find yourself thinking, "yeah I do that, but I've never shared that with anyone". It's a space where you won't be judged, but rather, understood and validated. Trust me, you’re not the only one who might be wrestling with this issue!
 
In each episode, we’ll tackle topics like how to really change, or sometimes accept, yourself, enhancing self-awareness, designing the life you want, lessening or eliminating your fear of what others think of you, improving your communication skills, and mastering the art of relationships. If you want more power to shape your life, but you’re struggling to make long-lasting small or large changes, professionally or personally, there's something here for you.
 
So, are you ready to wake up and pay attention? 
 
Join me as we embark on this adventure together.
