To kick off season 2 of the podcast, I am beyond grateful to introduce this community my first guest, my own coach, Eileen Joyce.  When I created this podcast, part of its inspiration was to help people learn how to better understand themselves and to discover lots of pathways for growth. Essentially how to face the hard stuff, your inner work, or, as I like to call it -- the work of you. People love to say that humans don’t change, or can’t change. I beg to differ. The main reason I continue to be empowered to offer this podcast (and the content within) is because I’ve done nothing but lean into my inner work over the last 15 years. I don’t just talk the talk; I walk it. And wow have I changed.

There is only one person, one witness, who's had an intimate front row seat to my growth and that’s my own coach, Eileen Joyce. Eileen is a Hudson Institute Certified Coach and Certified Grief Recovery Specialist. Her background includes a successful career in advertising/marketing and over two decades of experience working with people dealing with devastating loss and changes resulting from death, divorce, or serious illness, along with any of the over 40 major losses. 

Eileen’s mission is healing broken hearts through the Grief Recovery Method, and having the critical coaching conversations for identifying forward moving actions and ongoing support. This combination creates daily living with more aliveness, productivity, and joy. 

Episode Topics:

  • How Eileen approaches her own inner work
  • How decades of coaching has helped Eileen evolve, especially with trust
  • A pivotal growth moment for Eileen and her grief
  • Learning about the Enneagram and what was insightful for Eileen 
  • After nearly 15 years of coaching Jen (me), what stands out and how have I changed?
  • Eileen's favorite resource for doing the work of you.
