Fire in The BellyBe Bitter or Be Better - Interview with Christopher Rausch
In this episode, Pete speaks to Christopher Rausch a speaker and coach from southern California who inspires people to be different. Christopher spent most of his life trying to be someone he wasn’t and found that being unique is the best way to live your life both authentically and happily.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- After starting working in personal development Christopher didn’t feel like he had the right fit. He joined a mastermind group and they inspired him to just be himself. This felt so much more natural to him and although he had criticism to begin with now he wouldn’t have it any other way.
- One of the biggest regrets in life for many is that they spent their time pleasing other people. Christopher encourages his clients to stop doing this and set themselves free to live a life where they are authentic and happy.
- Christopher has found it astounding the amount of people who are self-sabotaging their lives and happiness for reasons they don’t even know or understand.
- Fire in the belly to Christopher means you have grit, passion and you are willing to do what is right and what is fair. He also believes that recognising your fire in your belly allows you to pursue your mission in life and have an impact on what you care about.
- Christopher spent most of his adult life working in a corporate environment, but when he was made redundant at his job he decided to use it as an opportunity to really become himself and create the legacy he wanted. He performed well in all his corporate roles but he never felt like he was existing as his true self.
- Growing up in a poor neighbourhood in LA with an alcoholic mother with various psychological issues meant that Christopher grew up being very independent and lonely as a child. It led to him to attention seeking behaviour and having to grow up much quicker than he should have.
- Life is like a book, it has chapters. When a chapter is done that is it, a chapter is created for a purpose and this chapter bridges a journey to another. We are here in life to have multiple experiences, we aren’t supposed to do the same thing our whole lives.
