Let's just keep it real
Let’s Just Be Real ~ Dec 15, 2009 from Kate Swoboda on Vimeo.
I wanted to make another video, but have had an idea for a different one floating around in the noggin for awhile and it wasn’t this one–not this topic, not this informal. So I thought I’d just “riff” a bit about what’s been up lately, and then somehow that turned into me talking about my dislike of the word “blog” and then when I started getting honest about a really shit day I’d had lately, I related a little vignette about the intersection of life coaching and four-letter words.
And that will have me writing something at some point about how much I also dislike the term life coaching, but how I stick with it because it’s the easiest thing to explain to someone. But that? That is for another day.
For now, enjoy. It’s ten minutes, but I think I chose some pretty appropriate background music!
Katrin, you were the winner of the most recent Keri Smith giveaway. Please contact me by Wednesday–I want to get things out to you before Christmas. If I haven’t heard by Wednesday evening, I’ll head to the random number generator and give it another go (kindly!).

I recall you saying “fuck,” and it made me love you more.
What is the video camera you’re using here?

kate – i’m so with you on the “life coach” terminology!! i used to workshop mental skills to athletes, and my boss at the institute of sport suggested that i should take it outside the realm of sports into what he called life coaching. i hated the term and so didn’t follow up on it at all. recently i’ve been thinking about what i used to do, and applying it outside the sporting world, but still do not like the title “life coach”… we need to come up with something else… looking forward to watching this video but it will have to wait til i’m at home in front of a computer that has sound
have a lovely day!
