We’re a Match
By Irene Williams, JP Williams
—v1—
One pod, two peas
We got something special, you and me
We’re each others’ cup o’ tea
You’re my chamomile ‘n I’m your honey sweet
It is clear that we were meant be
—chorus—
In a world that’s full of fakes and filters
There’s no denying we’ve got something real
I knew right away you were a keeper
‘Tween the two of us, I got the better deal
Hip to hip, let’s attach
We’re a match
—v2—
Needle, haystack
Darlin’ you are really quite a find
They say opposites attract
But we’re birds of a feather and like mind
You ‘n me—we’re two of a kind
—chorus—
In a world that’s full of fakes and filters
There’s no denying we’ve got something real
I knew right away you were a keeper
‘Tween the two of us, I got the better deal
Hip to hip, let’s attach
We’re a match
Hip to hip, let’s attach
Hook to hook, what a catch
I got a plan; I’ll help ya hatch
Itchy itch, scratchy scratch
We’re a match

Get perspective for the journey on this Song Lyric Sunday: Listen in as Irene and JP share and discuss their song “Chop Wood Carry Water.” This tune is their fresh take on the age-old saying that holds lots of truth for all of us today.
You can find the song in its entirety on your preferred music streaming platform.** Just search the song title and mention “JP Williams featuring Irene Williams.”
Here are the lyrics; enjoy! Chop Wood Carry Water
By Irene Williams, JP Williams
V1
You could travel the planet
Dine with a king
Memorize the commandments
Won’t mean a thing
‘Til you roll up your sleeves,
Get your hands in the dirt
There ain’t a guru
No philosophy
Gonna come save you
Friend, you’re already free
As they say, the ball’s in your court
Get to work
—chorus—
If you’re searching for enlightenment
You don’t have to look too far to find it
Just spend today being a doer, not a talker
Chop wood, carry water
V2
You want transformation
To forever be changed
But the real revelation?
It all stays the same
Even the wisest of wise
Gets thirsty and cold
In the end, we all reap what we’ve sowed
—chorus—
—bridge—
Don’t let your quest be a big distraction
Teachings come in and out of fashion
It’s really addition by subtraction
The answer’s in the action
—chorus—
** At time of this episode release (10-29-23), the song is available on Apple Music, Spotify, YouTube and many other outlets but not yet live on Amazon Music.

What do you want? Would you want it if you didn’t know they have it? And would you want that if nobody ever knew you had it?
It’s shockingly difficult for many people to clearly know what they want and desire. It’s also shockingly difficult for many people to be content once they’ve attained the thing, the experience, the position, etc. We humans are wired to seek the reward of new, different, next, but, in our modern era of abundance and constant input, our wants can get out of whack.
Listen in for perspectives to align your wants and desires with your core values. When values are the guide, you may find it easier to remember that what you have now is what you once wanted and wished for. Also, you’ll be less likely to settle for a temporary want that works against your lasting core values.
Speaking of core values, click here to revisit this previous episode, “Let Core Values Be Your Guide.”

Types of alcohol are just beverages…so why are they often such big deals or even problematic? In this episode, JP opens up about his relationship with alcohol and the reasons and results of his decision to go a full year without drinking beer (or any other adult beverages).

Thanks for being here with us!
The saying goes “we don’t see things as they are; we see things as we are,” and it’s so true. When we react emotionally, are wrought with worry, or on the defense in situations, it’s often because we’re fueled by feelings rather than focused on facts.
Learning to ask “is this a fact or feeling?” is a powerful method for quickly finding perspective. By taking a moment to find the answer, we tap into our amazing human superpower to pause and choose a response rather than reacting on raw instinct, bias or emotion.
Listen in as JP and Irene discuss how they use the “fact or feeling” tool with coaching clients and for themselves.

Ready to go all in on your life? This #songlyricsunday episode is for you! JP and Irene share their original song, "Only Way Out Is In," interspersed with conversation on the meaning and takeaways from the message. Lots of people say "the only way out is through," but this podcast offers a fresh perspective that invites everyone to stay IN the river of life. When we stay in, we're always moving forward, no matter if the waters are choppy or smooth sailing.
Here are lyrics to the song, followed by the poem, "Fear" by Khalil Gibran that Irene mentions in the episode.
The Only Way Out Is In
by Irene Williams, JP Williams
— v1 —
There ain’t no getting around a river
You can build a bridge or paddle through
Going side to side won’t move ya forward
That’s like living life in deja vu
— chorus—
The only way out is in
And becoming one with the flow
The river leads to the ocean
And that’s where you want to go
Don’t camp on banks
Where you’ve already been
The only way out is in
— v2 —
Some days you’re cruising with the current
Others fighting just to hold on
Staying in the water makes you stronger
Cool and smooth as river stone
— chorus —
— bridge —
All in, all in and willin’
Sink or swimmin’
Yeah, that’s livin’
—chorus—
The only way out is in
And becoming one with the flow
The river leads to the ocean
And that’s where you’re meant to go
Don’t camp on banks
Where you’ve already been
The only way out is in
—tag—
There ain’t no getting around a river
The only way out is in
Fear
by Khalil Gibran
It is said that before entering the sea a river trembles with fear.
She looks back at the path she has traveled, from the peaks of the mountains,
the long winding road crossing forests and villages.
And in front of her, she sees an ocean so vast, that to enter
there seems nothing more than to disappear forever.
But there is no other way.
The river can not go back.
Nobody can go back.
To go back is impossible in existence.
The river needs to take the risk of entering the ocean
because only then will fear disappear, because that's where the river will know
it's not about disappearing into the ocean,
but of becoming the ocean.

Letting Go
written by JP Williams & Irene Williams
performed by JP Williams
v1
It’s such a rush to go all in without a plan B
Pats on the back from family and friends, you were off to chase a dream
Now it’s five years later since you moved from your hometown
Your only motivation is you don’t want to let them down
chorus
Letting go is the hardest thing to do
Letting go — when the dream has hold of you
v2
You opened up a part of you
No one had ever touched
It’s heavy on the heart
When you want someone so much
You dreamed about the future
And that future seemed so bright
Guess they call it ghosting
‘Cause it keeps you up at night
chorus
bridge
Life is what happens when you’re making other plans
What’s meant to be is what will be
Go on and open up your hands
chorus

Could denial of your limitations actually keep you from a life of limitless possibilities? Listen in as life coaches/humans with limitations JP and Irene Williams have a conversation about the empowerment that comes when we accept our limitations so we can work through and go beyond them. Turns out, it may not be the limitation that's holding you back but the denial of it.
Want to go deeper on this topic or maybe get coached on accepting and going beyond your limitations to reach your goals? Connect with JP or Irene anytime.
"Thanks for being here; we appreciate you!"
