I did a thing this week. I tested into and attended the annual training conference to become a member of the MINT (Motivational Interviewing Network of Trainers). MI is a collaborative coaching approach that helps people find their own motivation to make positive changes. It’s not about fixing, convincing, or lecturing someone about making changes, it’s a science-backed way of guiding my clients to help them discover WHY making the change is meaningful to them. There are over 2500 studies on MI. It’s the real deal.
Why does this matter to me as a Board Certified Health and Wellness coach? Because women navigating midlife feel overwhelmed, lost, different, uncomfortable, unseen, unheard, and, well, just crappy.
There are so many IG influencers, some doctors, who continuously TELL, DIRECT, and THROW information and reasons why she should do x, y, and z. She may leave her doctor’s office with a list of what to do, and as she re-enters her real life, she is paralyzed by overwhelm. We know that doesn’t work.
I’m proud of this achievement. It’s been a 2-year long road to get me here, with the support of key MI trainers. To the health coaches who follow me here, consider the possibilities. To the women I help on their menopause journeys, you have everything you need to do the hard work. I’m your Sherpa using a language and skillset, that’s evidence-based, to support your growth.
If it was easy, we’d all be doing it. Xoxo
