Atlanta Pratt, first time on Coast 13 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:48,680 Speaker 1: to Coast, Hi, Atlanta, Oh it's great to be here. 14 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:50,760 Speaker 1: Thank you so much for having me, Georgia. I'm looking 15 00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:52,720 Speaker 1: forward to this. What a tough time for a lot 16 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 1: of people. Uh right, Yeah, this lockdown is something else? 17 00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 1: And how do they coach? Yeah? The idea of all 18 00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 1: of this forced upon us. We used to think we 19 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 1: had control of our lives. Nope, right, this idea of 20 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:15,560 Speaker 1: like I need certainty on the outside to feel okay 21 00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:18,200 Speaker 1: on the inside, and that's been taken away. So we 22 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 1: have to find certainty safety on the inside now, and 23 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:24,720 Speaker 1: that's tough for a lot of people. I had mentioned 24 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,759 Speaker 1: that divorces are up, suicides are up. Can we blame 25 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:32,960 Speaker 1: COVID nineteen in the lockdown for that? It's a catalyst 26 00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:37,320 Speaker 1: of something I think was always going on under the surface. Anyways, 27 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:41,959 Speaker 1: it's certainly what I find in my practice that we've 28 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,560 Speaker 1: been able to just make it work with Facebook, just 29 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 1: go on Facebook and avoid my problems or or of 30 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 1: course there's a lot of other like obesity or drugs 31 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 1: or or you know, the list goes on. And when 32 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 1: there isn't a global pandemic, you know, we can sort 33 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: of cope with our avoidance mechanisms. But when something is 34 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 1: intent as COVID and the loss of life and jobs 35 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 1: and freedom, we can't escape anymore. So we have to 36 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 1: absolutely address the elephant in the living room, you know, 37 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 1: head on, and that requires we have to feel I 38 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 1: have to slow down and feel face you know, face 39 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,080 Speaker 1: our feelings, and most of us haven't been trained on 40 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,079 Speaker 1: how to do that, which leads to I'm out of here. 41 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,639 Speaker 1: Let's just get a divorce or I'm literally out of here, 42 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 1: off the planet. Yeah. Do you find that the couples 43 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 1: get divorced if they a little quicker, if they don't 44 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: have children. Well, I think that is an excuse to go, okay, 45 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,800 Speaker 1: well let's make this work more for the children. But 46 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 1: I grew up with parents that you know, I wish 47 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 1: they got a divorce, George, Really I did not. Well, yeah, 48 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:50,919 Speaker 1: I got taught all the unhealthy things about a relationship. 49 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:53,800 Speaker 1: So I wish they would have had the courage to 50 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,679 Speaker 1: bless and release each other and consciously uncoupled. Then I 51 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,920 Speaker 1: could have had like four parents who were kind and 52 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:04,080 Speaker 1: loved each other rather than two that fought all the time. 53 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 1: But I do think it is a bit of an 54 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 1: easier out if the kids aren't there. But I think 55 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 1: the main issue across the board is that people. People 56 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 1: haven't learned how to communicate with themselves, so they can't 57 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 1: communicate with another. You know, my parents were literally matched 58 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 1: together by their parents. They basically said, the Gabe and Georgette, 59 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 1: we want you to to meet each other and get married. 60 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 1: They went out and they had a good time, and 61 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 1: they got married, and they stayed married until my dad 62 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 1: died several years ago. Wow. You know it's interesting. Every 63 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 1: generation has its own pros and cons or challenges and 64 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 1: you know, easier, easier ways. We have independence, we have choice, 65 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 1: we have the vote. We you know, women can send 66 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 1: for themselves and have their own thriving careers and so 67 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 1: that's a positive. And yeah, I think the challenge comes 68 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: that we swipe left too quickly, you know, when something 69 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 1: gets a little tough, we're out of here and we 70 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 1: haven't learned to, you know, to really have perseverance and 71 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 1: resilience and grit because the structures aren't there to hold 72 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:19,600 Speaker 1: us in the marriage. You know, it's just easy to 73 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 1: move on. How did you get involved in this? Oh? 74 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 1: Because I was a hot mess. I had to go 75 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 1: to my own counseling, my own therapy. Really. Oh yes, 76 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 1: isn't it that we always need to teach what we 77 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,600 Speaker 1: need to learn. That's that's been my and you just 78 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 1: decided you want to do this for a living well 79 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 1: back in the day twenty years ago. I'm fifty now, 80 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 1: so about twenty years ago I was going through sound thirty. 81 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 1: By the way, see see it again, you sound thirty? Oh, 82 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 1: you can just talk to me like that on that. So, yeah, 83 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,719 Speaker 1: I was in my first marriage and it wasn't going 84 00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 1: very well, and I started to go to therapy and 85 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,280 Speaker 1: workshops and I was sort of cast I was brought 86 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 1: to the side. They're like, hey, you're good at this. 87 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,720 Speaker 1: People tell you things they haven't told other people, sometimes 88 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:10,160 Speaker 1: things they haven't even told themselves. What's going on? And 89 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 1: I said, well, I have a great deal of love 90 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:16,040 Speaker 1: for humanity. I don't think there's any good in judging 91 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 1: people or rejecting them. I'm just a safe place for 92 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 1: them to be real. So that started me on my 93 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 1: own becoming a coach and going through my own It 94 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 1: was two divorces and a custody battle. I've been through 95 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: some interesting experiences, but it makes me real and safe 96 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:36,839 Speaker 1: for people not to feel ashamed of their own path, 97 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 1: so that we can get to the core and heal 98 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 1: that shame and guilt. You know, that's the lowest vibration 99 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: on hawk and scale of consciousness. I'm sure you know, 100 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,840 Speaker 1: is that shame and guilt, and it holds people stuck. 101 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 1: But when you can transform that, integrate that heal that 102 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:57,360 Speaker 1: it can turn into your superpower of like compassion, strength, 103 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:02,040 Speaker 1: speaking up so I learned through the School of Hard 104 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 1: Knocks as well as a lot of different certifications, etc. 105 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 1: And I think it's just one of the greatest blessings 106 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 1: to be that safe place for a person to land 107 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,360 Speaker 1: and not be judged and sit in the fire with 108 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,159 Speaker 1: them and get through to the other side. Are we 109 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:21,159 Speaker 1: blaming COVID nineteen for all these mishaps that people are having. Oh, 110 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: we're always blaming something, aren't we. Yeah, so this COVID 111 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 1: is the flavor of the data, blame for everything. But 112 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 1: I see life as your point of view creates your reality. 113 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 1: So if you want to see the glasses half full, 114 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 1: and so it is half empty, and so it is. 115 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: So COVID's the blame it all fine, But we can 116 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 1: also look at the blessings that COVID is brought. And 117 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 1: that's my point of view. I get to choose my 118 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 1: point of view, So that's my point of view. I 119 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:49,840 Speaker 1: think COVID is an invitation to slow down, feel our feelings, 120 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:53,720 Speaker 1: face what we have been avoiding in ourselves and been 121 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:57,159 Speaker 1: avoiding in our relationship. Well, I mean, it is true 122 00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:01,920 Speaker 1: that COVID nineteen with the lockdown kind of forced us 123 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: to do things or look at things in a different way. 124 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 1: That's happening. Yeah, I love that it's forced us. We 125 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 1: often go along on an autopilot with life, with work, 126 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 1: with kids, with marriage, with the whole thing, and then 127 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 1: we're dead and then that's the end. And this has 128 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 1: given us a chance to wake up and go, Hey, 129 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 1: is this actually what I choose? Am I actually in charge? 130 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 1: Or am I going to be a big old victim 131 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 1: of my circumstances? How can I pivot? What else is possible? 132 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: I'm not going to let this stop me. So what 133 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 1: inside me is ready to emerge? That only because of COVID. 134 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 1: That's the catalyst to wake something up in me and 135 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 1: lean in to the discomfort, ask more questions, hang out 136 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 1: with more positive people, and see it as a gift. 137 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 1: We should have. You talked to some government leaders though, 138 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 1: because some of the things they've implemented are just so 139 00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 1: outrageously crazy. I mean, here's an example. You can go 140 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 1: into a restaurant. You must wear your mask, but as 141 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 1: soon as you get to your table, you can take 142 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 1: your mask off. Now it doesn't exist when you sit. 143 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 1: That's right now. You cannot have a live piano player 144 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 1: in the restaurant that used to have, but you can 145 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 1: hear piped in music that's okay. Now is the piano 146 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 1: player going to give you COVID? Is that why they're 147 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 1: not there anymore? I just don't get it. No, I 148 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 1: think there's so much chaos and fear based decision making 149 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:43,439 Speaker 1: that these crazy behaviors. I've heard of other ones at 150 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,200 Speaker 1: the beach. You can stand at the beach but not sit, 151 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 1: or sit but not down. You can't sit at a bar, 152 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 1: but you can sit at a table right right. I 153 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 1: think it's a sad time for people trying to create 154 00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:00,319 Speaker 1: laws that give a sense of safety for people when 155 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:04,960 Speaker 1: it's just insanity. So I agree, total craziness out there, 156 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 1: insanity out there, and again we get to choose how 157 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:11,679 Speaker 1: we react or respond to it. Are we going to 158 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 1: just have a good laugh, look at the bright side, 159 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 1: make the best of it, or complain all day long? 160 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 1: I mean, I've got a precious, finite amount of energy 161 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 1: every day, and I choose to not allow another to 162 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 1: get my goat. I choose to not even let crazy 163 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 1: laws even though it takes a couple of deep breaths 164 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 1: to take me off my center. And I see it 165 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 1: as just ten more pushups, just more spiritual practice, and 166 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:40,680 Speaker 1: we're all being invited into a lot of deep breathing 167 00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 1: these days. But we can do it. We can rise, 168 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 1: and we can't do it alone. I don't think we 169 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 1: can do it alone. So thank you for this program, 170 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:51,560 Speaker 1: and thank me for showing up for my community, and 171 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:55,959 Speaker 1: thank everybody who's willing that together together we can get 172 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,440 Speaker 1: through it. But alone, go in there and help those 173 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 1: people that are avoid or distancing, because that can be 174 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:04,680 Speaker 1: a very scary place. We're going to take calls with 175 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 1: Alanna next hour. Those of you that are feeling the 176 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:12,959 Speaker 1: lockdown issues, share your stories with us. I feel sorry, Atlana, 177 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,199 Speaker 1: I always have for homeless people, but more so now 178 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:21,200 Speaker 1: than ever before. I mean, especially in the LA area. 179 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 1: You see them under bridges, living in cardboard boxes and tents, 180 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 1: and yeah, it's not easy, no, and it's easier for 181 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 1: people to shut their hearts and look the other way. 182 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 1: So thank you for your bravery to feel and face that. 183 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 1: And what can we do about that? What would you 184 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:44,280 Speaker 1: say is the biggest issue with this lockdown today based 185 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 1: on what you've seen, it's the lack of touch, the 186 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 1: lack of connection, the lack of being in another space. 187 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:55,480 Speaker 1: I mean I do all because of masks. Does that 188 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:59,320 Speaker 1: contribute to it? Yeah? I think it does. Like I've 189 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 1: even noticed myself. I'm a happy, connected, you know, vibrant chick. 190 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 1: When my mask is on, I stop making eye contact. 191 00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 1: It's weird, even though that's all you can see. I know, 192 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 1: I know, but I've noticed I've I've lessened my degree 193 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 1: because I can't. They can't see me smiling. They can't 194 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,200 Speaker 1: see that. I'm like, I like to smile at everybody. 195 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 1: I'm a Canadian. That's what we do. Oh are you are? 196 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: We love our Canadian neighbors. I'll tell you that, thank you. 197 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 1: I do too, And I'm noticing because I can't smile, 198 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,440 Speaker 1: there's a part of me that feels defeated. So I 199 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:32,840 Speaker 1: just don't even look anymore. So I think even the 200 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 1: masks create distancing between us, and I think that's the 201 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 1: most harmful problem with all of the distancing, and in 202 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: order to keep our heart open and stay connected when 203 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:50,840 Speaker 1: we can't be around people, that's that's the trick. Well, 204 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 1: with COVID nineteen, I've learned the masks work to prevent 205 00:11:56,600 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 1: people who are sneezing from getting you. If you've got 206 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 1: one and they've got one, but I'm not sure just 207 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 1: talking or anything like that is going to really get 208 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 1: anybody infected. I agree, I don't really think they do. 209 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,200 Speaker 1: They work terribly well, but they work for the sneezing 210 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 1: because sneezing you can hit somebody from ten feet. This 211 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 1: is true. This is true. Yeah, but it annoys me. 212 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 1: It still annoys me, and I have to deep breathe 213 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 1: for sure. But yeah, the idea that we could use 214 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 1: another technology like zoom, even though it's not the same 215 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,480 Speaker 1: as a hug, nothing's the same as a hug. What 216 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 1: I do love about the brain is the brain doesn't 217 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 1: know any different if you tell it, okay, right now, 218 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:41,839 Speaker 1: see it, think it, feel the emotion, and feel the 219 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 1: body sensation, and give yourself that time to imagine. I 220 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 1: know it's not as fun as a real hug, but 221 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 1: even imagining it starts to help the brain to emit 222 00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 1: those hormones to help you feel that sense of connection 223 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 1: again in the meantime, before we get to know hug 224 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 1: each other all over again.
