E128: What Makes Your Heart Sing - Interview with Doreen Ritchie

Today Pete speaks to Doreen Ritchie, a life and executive coach born and living in Belfast. A serious accident changed how Doreen viewed her life and started her off on a road of self-discovery. Pete and Doreen talk about why this was as well as coaching, change, mindset and more.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Doreen often helps people who are at a crossroads in their life. People who may be under stress or have just undergone major life events or changes. She helps them process these things and helps cultivate next steps for them to succeed. Doreen also creates workshops for businesses around stress, often as part of wider events around wellness.
Change is often the answer to many problems. Doreen helps people change their lives.
Individuals often think they are going to a coach to solve one or two problems. But usually these problems are a symptom of something bigger. A side effect of fixing some areas of your life is a transformation of your life entirely.
 We are on autopilot for a lot of a life. And unless we are conscious we are doing something then we can’t change it.
Live your life, this is not a dress rehearsal. All we have is the now and the present.
Doreen suffered in a bad car accident which changed her life direction forever. She realised she hadn’t been ‘living’ her life for the past ten years, she had just been existing. It began her journey of self-realisation and discovery.
Doreen’s background is in business but after leaving her job after the accident and not knowing what to do she assessed and reflected on her strengths. She recognised she was great with people and problem solving. This lead her to becoming a life coach.

BEST MOMENTS 

“I’m not doing the thing for them I’m just guiding them to where they need to be in order to solve this problem and move forward”

“Always, always, always the answer is change”

“Why are you telling yourself the story you aren’t worthy of love?”

“Most of it goes back to your childhood because that’s where we’re programmed”

“I just want to connect with people”
