Life Is Coaching You: Stop Taking It Personal, Start...

On Everything with Jay Floyd ·

2025/09/18

We talk about mentors, coaches, and leaders shaping us—but what if life itself is your coach? In this episode, I break down why you need to stop seeing everything as “happening to you” and start seeing it as feedback for you.

Think of it like a people-mover at the airport: step on, let it carry you forward, and learn what it’s

I share how my upbringing gave me a PhD in survival, how it built my career, and how it nearly cost me in leadership — and most importantly, what I had to
