Talking To Change - A Motivational Interviewing podcast
The Talking To Change - A Motivational Interviewing podcast is a phenomenal resource for both practitioners and enthusiasts of Motivational Interviewing (MI). Hosted by Glenn Hinds and Sebastian Kaplan, this podcast delves into the world of MI with the help of renowned guests who provide nuance and depth to the topic. As someone from a learning and organizational development background in healthcare, I stumbled upon this podcast later in my career but have been devouring past episodes ever since.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is the breadth and diversity of topics covered. From self-compassion to specific applications in various fields, each episode offers valuable insights that go beyond what is typically covered in base trainings on MI. The hosts themselves are veteran clinicians who skillfully guide the conversations, modeling MI techniques throughout. This makes for a rich and engaging learning experience for listeners.
Another great aspect is the quality of the guests featured on the show. These experts bring their unique perspectives and experiences, providing practical examples and real-world applications of MI. As a healthcare professional focused on patient experience, I find myself constantly thinking about how I can apply these concepts to better serve my patients and customers. The discussions also extend beyond professional contexts, as I often find myself considering how these principles can be applied to my personal life as well.
While it's difficult to find any major flaws in this podcast, one potential drawback could be that some episodes may delve into complex topics that require prior knowledge or familiarity with MI. However, the hosts do an excellent job of making even advanced concepts accessible to listeners at different levels of expertise.
In conclusion, The Talking To Change - A Motivational Interviewing podcast is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in MI. Whether you're a seasoned practitioner or just starting out, this podcast provides deep insights and practical applications that can enhance your understanding and skills in using MI techniques. The hosts' commitment to helping others find inspiration in MI shines through in every episode, making this podcast a true gift for those interested in this approach to communication and behavior change.
