Episode 5  Season 5CS Life: Choosing Your Thoughts With Shane HarleHost Bobby K, a comedian and mental health advocate who lives with Tourette syndrome, which comes with a triad, OCD, ADD, and Anxiety, introduces episode five, season five of “What’s In Your Toolbox?” and longtime friend Shane Harle, a former teacher and coach. Shane describes starting a private ski school at Mount Washington called Podium of Life, focused on helping students reach their own “life’s podium,” and notes several athletes from his program, including his son Teal, became Olympians. He explains his C’s of Life coaching: positive C’s (celebrate, cheer, compliment, congratulate) versus “crippling” C’s (complaining, criticizing, comparing), emphasizing that choosing thoughts affects emotions and performance, supported by tools like goal-setting, accountability, meditation, visualization, and mantras. Shane shares influences from his mother’s outlook during cancer, growing up with 47 foster children, and nature-based wellness, and credits support from his sister Shawnee Harle and brother Shannen. He now lives a life of Celebration with his life-partner Stacey, who reflects the beauty of all the things around her. Together they pass along the Cs of Happiness to everyone they come in contact with.00:00 Welcome to the Podcast00:37 Meet Shane Harle03:27 How We Met04:31 Podium of Life School06:17 Choosing Your Thoughts08:35 Applying It to Mental Health12:25 Mom’s Example of Positivity15:11 Teaching and Hyperactive Kids17:35 Tools Meditation and Mantras21:25 Nature Based Wellness25:07 Support Team and Advice29:06 Closing Reflections and Next Episode  A disclaimer notes Bobby is not a doctor and speaks from lived experience.LinksCSLifehttps://www.cslife.net/Shawnee HarleShawneeharle.comSubscribe to What's in your Toolbox? http://nomagicbullet.org/24/7 Crisis Support 1-888-893-8333
