Description

This episode is all about the spaces we create in coaching and how we use them. Hazel and Rachael explore a myth of good coaching practice - that coaching should always be non-directive. They talk about the different approaches to coaching and how those approaches might see non-directiveness differently. They also explore how this relates to the development of AI coaching.

Hazel and Rachael talk about how in Acceptance and Commitment Coaching we might use normalisation, psycho-education and skill development with our clients. They also discuss what coaches might want to think about when they are being more directive with their clients.

This is the perfect listen for anyone interested in how we create coaching spaces.
