In this episode of the Help Me Understand podcast, JK welcomes back Gillian Bennett to discuss the evolution of nutrition coaching, focusing on the importance of developing nutrition coaches through her Confident Coaching Mentorship program.

They explore the shift from a solely macro-focused approach to a more mindful and values-aligned coaching style, truly putting the client at the core of what coaches do.

Gillian shares insights on the importance of understanding client motivations, the role of ambivalence in goal setting, and the necessity of effective communication in coaching.

The conversation emphasizes the significance of mentorship and the need for coaches to build confidence in their practice while promoting a process-oriented mindset.
