Wake Up and Pay Attention

De: Mark Robertson - Executive Coach
  • Resumen

  • Welcome to Wake Up and Pay Attention - the podcast that helps you create powerful, sustainable change from the inside-out. I’m your host, Mark Robertson. I’m an Executive Coach with over 25 years of experience in Leadership Development and Professional Coaching. If you’ve ever felt like you’d really like to make life changes but you’re stuck, you’re bombarded by the noise of the world around you, and struggling to find your footing, you’re in the right place. Together, we’re going to explore new frameworks and tools that will have you see your life in a new way and awaken you to the possibilities of your life. This show is about having honest, open conversations about the authentic, human experience – the kind where you’ll find yourself thinking, ”yeah I do that, but I’ve never shared that with anyone”. It’s a space where you won’t be judged, but rather, understood and validated. Trust me, you’re not the only one who might be wrestling with this issue! In each episode, we’ll tackle topics like how to really change, or sometimes accept, yourself, enhancing self-awareness, designing the life you want, lessening or eliminating your fear of what others think of you, improving your communication skills, and mastering the art of relationships. If you want more power to shape your life, but you’re struggling to make long-lasting small or large changes, professionally or personally, there’s something here for you. So, are you ready to wake up and pay attention? Join me as we embark on this adventure together. Let’s connect: https://www.linkedin.com/in/markrobertsonpcc mark@coachmark.com www.coachmark.com

  • Returning to Wholeheartedness: Realigning my Career and Personal Commitments
    Mar 6 2025

    For the past two months, I’ve been in deep self-reflection, questioning all of my career and personal commitments, and whether I’m truly living in alignment with what matters most. I had to ask myself: Where did my wholeheartedness go? Where am I out of alignment with what I care about most at this stage of my life?

    In this episode, I open up about what this period of reflection has taught me about living a wholehearted life, and how I gained clarity on what truly matters to me - my health and authentic connection with myself and others. Realizing I was out of alignment, I stepped back to rethink my commitments, particularly my career commitments and what those were producing.

    I also explore how feeling unmotivated, a bit flat or even disengaged often stems from saying yes to things that don’t align with who we are and what we care about. That’s why I’m shifting away from being an Executive Coach full time to taking on more Life Coach-like commitments – to focus on deeper, more meaningful, and transformative work. A work rooted in authentic conversations and connected relationships, where all parties are wholehearted and personally fulfilled – the crucible for sustainable change!

    If you’ve been feeling disconnected, flat, stuck or even unmotivated, this episode is for you. Let’s talk about what happens when we stop, reflect, and finally start listening to what we truly care about it.

    Let’s wake up and pay attention together.

  • Endings, Beginnings, and Transformations – Reflecting on a Life-Changing Journey
    Dec 20 2024

    As the year comes to a close, I invite you to join me for a heartfelt reflection on a year filled with personal growth, change, and adventure. In this episode, I take you through the final leg of my transformative 33-day road trip. A journey that stretched across breathtaking national parks, reconnected me with my military upbringing and reminded me of the profound beauty of human connection.

    I’ll share stories from the Grand Teton and Yellowstone, encountering wildlife and marveling at nature’s majesty, as well as revisiting my roots at Ellsworth Air Force Base after nearly 50 years. These experiences gave me new perspectives on my past, my relationship with my father, and the ways nature grounds me spiritually.

    This episode also dives into the lessons I’ve learned from embracing conversations with strangers and how this trip has reshaped my view of life, community, and even home. Along the way, I’ll reflect on how longer vacations offer opportunities to disconnect to reconnect with what truly matters, providing the clarity and perspective needed to embrace life more fully.

    If you’re seeking inspiration for your own journey, whether physical, emotional, or spiritual, or just need a moment to reflect on the beauty of life’s twists and turns, this episode is for you.

    Let’s wake up and pay attention together.

  • How a 33-Day Journey Through Nature Taught Me to Slow Down, Trust My Gut, and Find Balance in Life (Part II)
    Nov 29 2024

    Nature has this incredible way of reflecting back on what we need to see if we’re willing to slow down and listen.

    In this episode, I take you with me on a leg of my 33-day journey through the breathtaking landscapes of Sequoia, Kings Canyon, and Yosemite National Parks. But this isn't just a travel story—it's about what these towering trees, sweeping vistas, and quiet moments taught me about presence, intuition, and finding balance in life.

    You'll hear about my connection to El Capitan (or “the Chief”) and how it helped me reflect on my own journey and connect to something bigger. We’ll talk about why slowing down, embracing spontaneity, and showing up fully are so important—not just on the trail, but in our everyday lives. I’ll also take you through some meaningful conversations with fellow travelers and how they reminded me of the power of connection and curiosity.

    I believe life is always teaching us—if we’re willing to pay attention. Whether you’re navigating your own transitions, looking for clarity, or just need a reminder to slow down and trust your intuition, this episode is for you.

    Let’s wake up and pay attention together.
