Climbing with Coach Kiah - 12. How I Became Coach Kiah - My Entrepreneurial Journey
play

10/06/21 • 55 min

In honor of October being National Women’s Small Business Month, I am dedicating the next four episodes to women entrepreneurship. I’ve found that whether it’s the journey of health or business, the underlying factor that determines our success is the same: mindset.

We’re kicking off this series with my own entrepreneurship story. The journey to becoming Coach Kiah has been anything but a straight path. Growing up I never intended to become an entrepreneur, but over time my heart (and homesickness) eventually pulled me in that direction. There have been lots of unexpected twists and turns along the way and in this episode, I share with you the story of how it all unfolded.

In this episode, we’ll chat about:

  • My first entrepreneurial endeavors in a one-room schoolhouse
  • The first full-time business I owned and why I pivoted
  • What the behind the scenes of Coach Kiah currently looks like

Climbing with Coach Kiah - 71. Tap Into Gratitude (& Whatever Else You’re Feeling)
play

11/23/22 • 11 min

I wanted to keep this week’s episode short and sweet, because I’d love for you to spend more time with yourself and the people that you love than with me. Let’s pretend this episode is twice as long, but the second half you just hang out with yourself in reflection, how does that sound?

This, of course, is the season of gratitude. If you’re listening to this the day it’s released, tomorrow is Thanksgiving. But before we get there, I just want to hold space for you to slow down and take a few deep breaths to tap into how you’re feeling today and in this season. Whatever comes up for you, allow it without resistance. Feel what needs to be felt.

In this episode, we’ll chat about:

  • Is gratitude overdone this time of year?
  • Focusing on gratitude while also not ignoring any hard feelings that come up
  • The power of observing your feelings, naming them, and feeling whatever needs to be felt
  • Rooting ourselves in gratitude and abundance

Climbing with Coach Kiah - 80. 7 Ways to Measure Health Without a Scale
play

01/25/23 • 23 min

I have broken up with my scale. Here’s the thing: scales aren’t bad. They are a hunk of metal and plastic, there is nothing moral about them. They are an inanimate object that’s job is to provide data. And that data isn’t even bad! Whether it’s higher or lower than you’d like, it’s simply a string of numbers measuring a mass. Now, all that said, our relationship with this totally neutral object may be anything but neutral. And I think our society has been conditioned to put more weight into what it says, pun intended, than is actually helpful for our overall health. Today I’m going to discuss 7 ways to measure health without a scale. So, if you are exploring the idea of breaking up with scale while also still wanting to focus on your health, this one is for you!

In this episode, we’ll chat about:

  • Weight obsession along with rampant diet culture is actually hurting us more than it’s helping
  • It’s not inherently BAD to want to lose weight but looking at weight as the sole measure of health is bad because there are so many other ways to do so
  • Health does not LOOK a certain way and weight is NOT the best indicator of health
  • The 7 ways to measure health without a scale
