E258: “Plants Don’t Worry if There’s Going to Be Sun Tomorrow.” – Tara Chatzakis Interview

Tara Chatzakis has always been a free spirit. Born in Yorkshire, she was married and raising a family in Greece when she had an epiphany: she could leave her dysfunctional marriage if she wanted and create a new life for herself. She relocated herself and her three daughters to the Isle of Wight, and shortly after, realized she wanted to help other women to empower themselves. She began to take accreditation to become a business coach and entrepreneur; due to her love of people and her extroverted nature, she also found a niche in podcasting and motivational speaking. In this episode of the show, she and Mighty Pete discuss what it’s like to wake up one day and decide to take your life in your own hands. How the smallest of decisions can be pivotal, and how courage can be found along the way.   KEY TAKEAWAYS We only have one life, so it’s worth it to take chances on big dreams. Tara can help isolate the root causes of her clients’ insecurities and give them an action plan on how to move through them, thus releasing the obstacles holding them back from achieving their highest potential. The first step in achieving professional or personal goals is to be honest with yourself and what truly is motivating you. There is only one of each of us – so one of our life’s missions must be figuring out who that person is and being brave enough to let that person out – and a life coach can help. We all need mentors and will use them at different points in our lives. Training your brain through neuroplastic techniques and affirmations can help us reset the negative soundtracks we may not even be aware that we are playing. BEST MOMENTS “Everyone has so much potential within them to do great things, but you just get used to living every single day like the Groundhog Day movie, every single day is exactly the same (but it doesn’t have to be).” “The more you speak about what you’re doing, the clearer you become on what you’re doing.” “The ego, bless it, is there to protect you, isn’t it? It wants to keep you safe. If it’s unknown, it’s going to question whether you need it, whether you it’s important, whether it’s expensive, whether it’s right for you, and all these things because it doesn’t understand what the outcome is going to be because it’s new and it’s scary. But you must let that go, and trust.” “You could spend your whole day worrying about something, and worrying that you’re not going to be able to do something, and then when you get to that point it’s all well and good anyway, so why did you waste all that time getting anxious about it?” ABOUT THE GUEST Tara is a certified Law of Attraction practitioner and Robbins-Madanes coach, who works with women entrepreneurs who want to manifest their careers and lives into the next level. She has been working in this field for over a decade, and recently has also started her own podcast, (Happy, Inspired, Motivated) which is in the top 5% of motivational podcasts globally. She lives in the Isle of Wight with her daughters Kalls, Andi, and Gabby, and their cat and dog.    CONTACT METHOD Website: https://www.tarachatzakis.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/tarachatzakis YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3ekoKlqtzKrGRTYEVBMdtg Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tarachatzakiscoaching   ABOUT THE HOST The ‘Mighty Pete Lonton’ from the ‘Mighty 247’ company is your main host of ‘Fire in The Belly’.
