In this episode we will be talking about an intervention that represents a bridge between medical consultations and the coaching world: Motivational Interviewing (MI).

MI is a technique that most medical professionals will have some awareness of, as it has its origins in the treatment of alcohol addiction.

We'll be exploring what it is; what are the potential benefits; and how it might be seen as a step towards taking a coaching approach to behaviour change. We'll also be discussing MI's limitations and how it might be improved upon or integrated with other coaching approaches.

We will regularly be devoting a podcast episode to discussing some widely held coaching beliefs, common coaching practices and coaching challenges that are often pondered and debated.

In this episode we will be exploring emotions, and asking the question, Do they belong in the coaching room?

Some people worry about what to do when a coachee becomes emotional, or have concerns that it might a need for therapy, but we believe that emotions will always be present in the coaching room. So, what can you do to prepare for times when emotions bubble to the surface, and how might you handle emotions when they show up in the coaching space?

Are you a people pleaser? It's a topic that definitely comes up in the

coaching room and many in some cases, be getting in the way of our

coachees' growth, development, career, wellbeing, and even possibly

happiness.

In this episode we explore what people pleasing is, how it might impact

individuals and how we could work through it with clients to help them

find a new way of being?

In this episode we introduce Cognitive Behavioural Coaching or CBC. It's

an approach that brings together the practice of coaching and the

concepts and methods that underpin Cognitive Behavioural Psychology.

CBC offers a number of distinctive models and techniques that help

coaches to understand the barriers that coachees may be placing in

their own way.

Engaging with CBC allows coaches to support their coachees in

increasing their awareness of their limiting beliefs and unhelpful

thinking and looking at ways in which they can overcome and change

them.
