E49: Motivational Interviewing & Caregiving


Listen Later

In this episode, we visit with Dr. Liz Barnett who helps individuals and organizations implement an evidence-based communication style called Motivational Interviewing (MI) to enhance their ability to engage and motivate others. Caregiving often challenges communication in a relationship, and that's where MI comes in. Dr. Liz helps us understand how caregivers can modify their communication tactics when working through behavior changes with loved ones. While the natural response to change is resistance, Dr. Liz helps us see how cooperation and careful discussion planning can take some stress out of this caregiver life.
