Go Coach Yourself!
Welcome to Go Coach Yourself!, a podcast to help you get unf*cked and build the incredible life you deserve. We’re Vic and Ryan, two certified coaches trying to change the world one conversation at a time.
In our respective practices, we’ve noticed common experiences or themes that come up again and again with clients. We started Go Coach Yourself to share our thoughts, experiences and tips with more people, giving you tools you can use to navigate your own way through any of the topics we cover. Through these examples and deep dives on coaching topics we hope you’ll gain a greater understanding of what working with a coach can involve. We believe everyone deserves to have a coach in their team, so whether you’re still exploring to find the right coach for you or you are ready to get started, we’re excited to give you an inside look at how two coaches see the world. We’re going to have a ton of fun along the way, and welcome you to join us on this journey!

Summer Shorts: Letting Go of Landers
Let us know what you think about this episode or send us an idea!
In this summer short, Ryan shares the story of a 400-square-foot cabin in Landers, California that became an unexpected stepping stone to something bigger. What started as a real estate investment and side hustle turned into a transformative experience that ultimately led Ryan and his husband to make an even bolder leap to Spain.
Main Takeaways
- Dreams can evolve and serve as preparation for bigger opportunities
- Sometimes the bravest thing is to thank an old dream and step into a new one
- Ask yourself: Is this dream still serving your growth or has it become a constraint?
- Letting go doesn't diminish what something meant to you—it honors it
- Trust that your dreams are allowed to evolve just as you do
Reflection Questions
- What dream are you holding onto that might actually be a stepping stone to something bigger?
- If you're feeling torn about letting something go, ask yourself: Did it already give you what you needed?
- Is holding on keeping you from saying yes to what wants to emerge next?
Next Episode Preview The hosts return next week with a full-length conversation with Sue Brisbois about kindness—don't miss it!
Note: This marks the final summer short of the season as the show transitions back to longer format episodes.
