Coach SG & Friends: Recent Episodes
Coach SG
This podcast is all about relationships. Research shows that thriving relationships positively impact our mental and emotional health. Coach SG is a relationship coach who helps people create their most amazing love story and master their emotional health. She has invited two friends - Janessa Rose, who is an author, speaker and CEO of a non profit that helps people in the urban community with emotional health. Lisa Miranda is an actor, producer and someone who has benefited from hiring a life coach. Every week we discuss topics that will help you have a better relationship with yourself and those you love.
The relationship with yourself is one of the most important relationships you will have, so you should honor and nurture the relationship with yourself. In this episode I discuss what it means to take care of your mind, body and spirit.
We have been conditioned to believe that love is supposed to be painful and the longer we suffer, the more value the relationship has. I want to help you change that narrative. Relationships can be joyful and inspiring, we just need to adopt the skills necessary to experience it. This episode is talks about how we can have a happier love and life story.
The only way to get relationship experience is to be in a relationship. Every relationship gives you a great deal of feedback regarding personal desires, boundaries and standards, so each relationship you engage offers value to all involved, if you approach it from that perspective.
We focus on the ending or we keep score of what is going wrong, instead of allowing it to teach us more about who we want to be, what we want to draw from others and how well we can collaborate with those we love.
Don’t be so hard on yourself. Give yourself ease. You are learning and growing. Let the experience provide you with information and empower yourself to move towards what you desire.
We all the know the feeling of frustration and dread when we realize a relationship has come to the end of it's cycle. In this episode we talk about our experiences of navigating a break up with the hopes that it will offer you some solace to move towards the type of relationship you need instead of holding onto one that no longer serves you.
Why is sisterhood so important? In this episode we discuss our journey to Cape Verde for our co-host Lisa Miranda's birthday celebration and how the trip was an expression of our sisterhood. We discuss why having a sisterhood is important to your mental and emotional health. And also how this trip inspired us to coordinate an annual retreat there for women who want to not only want to have an amazing vacation, but be a part of an empowering sisterhood.
If you have not had great luck in relationships romantically or otherwise, in this episode we discuss our perspectives on what it means. It doesn't always mean it has to stay that way, nor does it mean you are broken in some way.
Also if you have any relationship challenges you would like to discuss on our podcast, please submit a question via video or DM on instagram. If you want your submission to be anonymous, we can make sure that happens as well.
The pain of a break up is sometimes what makes us overly cautious about falling in love and getting into another relationship. This episode will give you more insight into how to navigate letting go of an ex or someone who may soon become an ex.
How do you know if you need to rewrite your relationship rulebook? If you have one and it needs refreshing or you have never had one and want to write one - this is the podcast episode for you. We discuss our reasons for creating one and what's great is we all have different perspectives.
"Should you take your ex back?" If this is a question you have been pondering, then this is the podcast episode for you. No one should tell you what is right for you, but if you are still unsure, this episode should help you with your decision making.
Life is meant to be enjoyed, but often times we don't know how to experience more joy because we are responsible for so much or we are waiting for a certain situation in our lives to get better, before we can move towards joy. The joy journey looks different for everyone. In this episode we discuss 8 ways we personally experience more joy.
- Engage in joyful activities
- Practice gratitude
- Become masterful at what gets your focus
- Move your body/change your physiology
- Create daily rituals that condition you in a positive way
- Invest in your personal growth
- Become aware of what you feed your mind, body and spirit
- Surround yourself with people, places and things that fill your spirit.
Curiosity deepens connection and creates a space for interest instead of judgement. When two people come together in a relationship, they are creating more than a union, they are creating a dynamic in which they can thrive and be vulnerable in. When we maintain curiosity in our relationships we are more mindful of what we are drawing from each other with every engagement.
Many people are suffering in their relationship in silence because they are too embarrassed to share about their issues, or they don't know what to do to make it better. Relationships are difficult because we are changing and growing, we don't know what we need and have a hard time communicating it, we don't have a vision for our relationship and we don't have to skills to get through disagreements. This episode is focused on giving you some tools to empower yourself and to help you identify how things break down. We also answer an "asking for a friend" question that we think many people can relate to.
Suicide statistics continue to rise and depression is typically the catalyst to suicidal thoughts. Since depression looks different for everyone, so it is hard to know who is going through it until it becomes critical. In this episode we discuss our personal experience with suicidal thoughts and how we have moved through it. We want to give people a place to go for mental health resources. Here is the link to the resource document Janessa discusses in the podcast https://www.motivationalmonsters.org/programs
There are so many things we wished we knew when we were younger in relationships. In this episode we discuss what those things are and how some of us still struggle even though we "know" better than our parents did. Most often it is our mindset and habit of thinking we get stuck in. Hopefully this episode will help you move through those obstacles.
Our environment is our ecosystem and it should support our well being. Most times people are not assessing their environment and thinking about creative ways on how to improve it. Many times we are disappointed by our environment and fighting against what we don't want. We often don't even give ourselves permission to create the space that is most aligned with our desires. We want to give you permission.
Create a better life and love story for yourself for 2022. Don't just set a resolution or make a list of goals. We go through a comprehensive list of things to do to make this year different than any other year. You can't just make a list of new goals, without new habits, new emotions, new mindset, new tools, a support system, ideal environment and a support system.
Now that the year has come to an end, it is VERY important that we take stock of our wins and get prepared for the things we want to manifest in the new year. It is habitual to focus on what didn't happen and it takes practice to retrain yourself to focus on the progress you made. In this episode we share how we do it.
How does one reach for bliss when life doesn't feel all that blissful? This is the million dollar question and we answer it in this episode. There are some things you can do improve your emotional state and we share our personal experiences. You have to adopt some new beliefs, pick up some new habits and have more fun.
In this episode of "Asking for a friend" we discuss how to navigate a relationship where someone is suffering and you are trying to help, but all your help is met with hostility. We also discuss holiday traditions and how to empower yourself to chose your own traditions.
We know that dating can feel tricky and sometimes you just want a little guidance, so we would like to share some guidelines (8 to be exact), not rules, we believe will help you through the dating process. We often end up with the same type of people and believe it is because the pickings are slim, but we want to help you stand in your power in this dating space. We believe this episode (this is PART TWO, so check out PART ONE first) will help you understand alignment and how to choose a person that is most aligned with who you are.

While we were recording our last podcast "social media and relationships", the topic on exclusivity and dating took about 60 mins of our time, because my cohosts and I could not agree on what it means to be exclusive when dating. Take a listen to our discussion.
Exclusivity is a conversation that must be had in the early stages of dating, and not just assumed because you have been intimate with one other. It is interesting how many of us take these beliefs for granted.
In this episode we discuss whether social media is harmful or helpful to your relationship.

All the messages we receive state that we can never truly love another, until we love ourselves, but we have only been shown how to love others, not how to love ourselves. Besides, how the heck do you love yourself? We are clear when we are engaging in behaviors that don't feel like self love, but what does self love look like? Join us in a discussion of what that looks like to people who didn't get a great deal of nurturing growing up.

We often use guilt, blame and revenge in our relationships when we don't know how to ask for what we need and make the decisions that are right for us. That method of operation doesn't allow us to grow and problem solve together. It keeps us codependent and reactive. In this episode we discuss how paying attention to mastering your own energy can provide you with more peace.

The term Equally Yoked is used often, so we wanted to have a discussion about it. Equally Yoked is a biblical term that basically says to not marry someone who doesn't have the same religion or beliefs. It also has an agricultural meaning when a yoke joins two oxens together then they need to be the same to work together. Otherwise, they can't accomplish the goal of farming.
In this episode we discuss what it means to us. Janessa's perspective is about the power of exchange. Lisa's perspective is about similarities in love and vision. My perspective is about alignment of beliefs and values.
Take a listen and tell us what you think of this episode.

Finding an ideal mate can be hard. We just want to link up with someone we mesh with easily and live happily ever after, but unfortunately it is not that easy. Truth is it can be easier if we get better at knowing what to look for early on. We have to know ourselves well in order to truly know who the best match for us is. We have to be taking care of ourselves as well, so we are also looking to add value to the relationship. We can't add value if we are mentally, emotionally and spiritually exhausted. You are coming in with a deficit.
When we feel ready to date because we have done our inner work, we want to offer some tips that have helped us personally. We should be looking for shared beliefs, values and life philosophy, instead of just chemistry and external things. Look for someone with more high level qualities.
When things get rough, do they lean in or turn away? When you argue, do they want to be in the solution or more than the problem? Do they seem excited about you and desire quality time with you? Do they support your dreams and goals? Do they support you emotionally? Do they support you in being more of who you are, or do they want to control and change you?
These are habits you need to look for when asking yourself HOW DO I FIND MY IDEAL MATE?
