Bron is joined by Shane (Community Psychologist) to chat about reflective practice groups and how they can be a great tool for preventing burnout in early-career clinicians. We chat about what reflective practice groups involve, how they can reduce feelings of isolation (that "I'm the only one experiencing this" feeling), and how you can implement reflective practices in our workplace, supervision group, or regular peer consultation. Thanks Shane for opening up the conversation about this great tool for staying well while we work in mental health! ✨

On this episode of The BRAVE OT Podcast, I get to sit in the interviewee seat as OT student, Jacqueline Buhler, asks me questions about being an OT business owner! Jacqueline brings her entrepreneurial spirit and curiosity as we discuss my experiences and reflections on choices I made and ways I adapted at different phases of my OT career and business. We draw some parallels between the transition from OT student to emerging clinician and from OT to OT entrepreneurship, revealing how different traits and skills facilitate success. We explore how traits like adaptability, flexibiity, curiosity, self-awareness, and creative problem-solving are valuable skills to develop. This authentic dialogue offers both validation and practical insights for OTs questioning their entrepreneurial potential or wondering how to leverage their natural traits while charting their own unique path in practice. ________________ ACTivate Vitality is currently open for OT entrepreneurs like you if you would like to grow personally and professionally as the whole person at the centre of your business.

Teachers are key agents of changes and improvements in their classrooms. Yet spaces and opportunities for teachers, and others in the human services, to have control over their working lives and professional learning, have drastically diminished. Janette and Mary talk to Marie about their project to address this, by supporting teachers' reflection and self-directed learning and improvement. The evaluation of their project was overwhelmingly positive, with principals and teachers valuing the opportunity for professionaly supportive reflection, especially in a safe space outside the school environment.ReferencesAllen, J.M.

Whether you're just starting a new OT business, or considering developing a new product, technology, or moving in the direction of retirement, I think you'll find a lot of value in this episode. I am excited to be talking to my friend and colleague, Ruth Duggan. In this episode, we talk about a lot of parallels between the process of starting a business or a product and the familiar assessment and intervention process we use as OTs. We share about our experiences in the early days of starting our businesses and how we've developed new offers and products. Ruth gives us a peek into how she is preparing for that next phase of her business where she's less active in it, and how she is leaving a legacy by transferring her knowledge through the development of an app and related training.

In this latest episode of our ‘Stories from the Coaches' mini-series I want to start by referring to our strapline – where theory and good intentions meet reality because the topic of discussion in this episode - Reflective Practice, fits so well with this phrase. Let me explain: In theory, we as educators and coaches appreciate the benefits of a reflective approach to our practice and we definitely have good intentions to make this a regular habit, however the reality quite often is that we let disciplines such as reflective practice drop off the list as the busyness of working in education takes over. In this episode we aim to help you address this issue so join me in conversation with one of GCI's longest serving members – Di Henning and we will take a deeper dive into reflective practice.
In this episode, Dr. Natalie Lancer and Julia Vaughan Smith, Kate Brassington, and Jenny Rogers, explore the nuances of trauma-informed coaching. The panel give thought to the complexities and responsibilities involved in trauma-informed coaching, discussing the internal dynamics of trauma, its influence on coaching practices, and the importance of sensitivity to clients' experiences. The conversation covers the distinctions between coaching and therapy, ethical considerations, and the skills necessary for trauma-informed coaching, such as presence, attunement, and reflective practice. The importance of safeguarding, establishing boundaries, and self-care for coaches is also addressed. We consider: What is trauma and how can we recognise it in our coaching practice? What are the reasons why clients seek trauma-informed coaching? What are the benefits for the client of working with a trauma-informed coach? Where is the overlap between coaching and therapy in addressing trauma-related issues? How can we address trauma in coaching? What are the core qualities and skills needed to coach in a trauma-informed way? How can we train to become a more trauma-informed coach? Do self-care and supervision look different for trauma-informed coaches? How should we contract appropriately for client safety? What are the risks, safe-guards and limits of trauma-informed coaching? In what ways can coaching contribute to trauma healing? Our experts shared their approaches to working with trauma in coaching, for example, understanding clients' backstories without explicitly using the term “trauma”. Trauma can be subtly present in coaching sessions, even when clients may not explicitly seek help for trauma-related issues. Trauma-informed coaching helps clients process trauma in the present and integrate their experiences in safe ways through creating a trusting environment where they feel heard and understood. Our guests today are: Jenny Rogers is a leader in a new approach to coaching which combines insights from psychotherapy with the pragmatic emphasis on change, drawing on a career in coaching spanning three decades. She works with senior clients in the law, medicine, finance, healthcare, performing arts and media who typically face a major transition in their lives. Jenny won the Henley Business School Award for Outstanding Contribution to Coaching in 2019. She is the author of Are You Listening? and nine other books on coaching. Julia Vaughan Smith is an Accredited Master Executive Coach and Supervisor and was in private practice as a Psychotherapist, focusing on trauma processing and healing. Together with Jenny Rogers, she has co-facilitated Masterclasses and associated workshops on trauma and coaching. She is the author of a number of books including ‘Coaching and Trauma', ‘Therapist to Coach', and ‘Daughters: How to Untangle Yourself from Your Mother', exploring the impact of developmental and ancestral trauma on this relationship and how to become untangled. Kate Brassington is a Coaching Psychologist (GMBPsS) and PCC ICF-certified Trauma Informed Coach who researches applied coaching strategies. She has published her research on resilience training for people in high-risk occupations. She hosts a podcast called ‘Refreshing Leadership' which brings to life applied trauma-informed coaching for leaders in all walks of life. She works with a wide range of people from teens to 70+'s; with executives, retirees, solo-entrepreneurs, and more. She offers pro-bono coaching to military amputees through the charity BLESMA.

Self-reflection is a valuable method that nurse educators can use to develop clinical judgment skills among prelicensure nursing students. Little research exists on improving clinical judgment in second-degree nursing students in the clinical setting. In this podcast and article, Dr. Jennifer Maffucci presents how shared reflective practices in the clinical setting show promise for increasing clinical judgment and supporting a competency-based curriculum.
In this week's episode, we speak with Dawn Neenan and Magalí Stolovitsky Colb, adjunct lecturers at Brooklyn College of the City University of New York in the United States. They explain reflective supervision, how it compares to traditional supervision, and the benefits of integrating reflective practice into supervision. They also discuss how speech pathologists might use infant mental health principles to inform the work we do as clinicians and/or supervisors, and how to create their own reflective supervision group.

This podcast season is all about the HOW of learning through experience. We learn through experience using four core practices: challenging your perspective, stretching and building range, directing your learning, reflection and inquiry. The core practice that we are paying attention to in this episode of Learning Through Experience is reflection and inquiry. In this episode, I spoke with reflective writing practitioner and teacher Stephanie Dunson about reflective practice through writing. We cover the practice of reflective writing, including the struggle of writing, and she offers some prompts for you to use in your own reflective writing practice. Stephanie is a renowned facilitator who uses writing as a tool for problem-solving and collaboration in both the academic and corporate worlds. Key Topics: 04:24 The challenge of writing: The limits of writing towards an outcome in contrast to writing for the reflection and exploration of our own thoughts and feelings; 08:33 The meander of writing: Writing doesn't work in a straight line, rather it follows a natural sort of meander. By meandering through a piece, we get to know the writer's mind; 15:18 Reflective writing: The concept of using writing as a tool for deep thinking and developing relationships with complex material; 21:15 Reflective writing in groups: Engaging in the moment of making new ideas as a group and combining the strengths of the individual with the power and diversity of the group; 23:03 The practice of writing: Developing the capacity to reflect, notice, and meander as a practice in life and writing; 30:48 Prompts for reflective writing: What have you considered writing about but abandoned? Explore the places of resistance and write into that space. Additional Resources from Stephanie Dunson Podcast: 100 Mistakes Academic Writers Make …and How to Fix Them Website

The teaching profession is in crisis and whilst it can be an extraordinarily rewarding and it is also an exhausting profession so self-care is essential. As a regular diary keeper I was curious to find out just how this might be helping my own wellbeing. Dr Lucy Kelly is an Associate Professor in Education in the School of Education whose main research interest is reflective practice as a positive tool for educator wellbeing, and she is Principal Investigator for the 'Reimagining the Diary' project. Lucy talks about how our narrow concept of what diary keeping is could be a barrier to engaging with it, how it can many benefits and how we can engage with a broader and more creative concept of diary keeping.

In this episode, Dr. Natalie Lancer and her guests, Anthony Eldridge-Rogers, Maria Iliffe-Wood, and Dr. Iain McCormick, explore the significance of self-care, presence, and reflective practice in coaching psychology. They discuss the role of self-care in managing the challenges coaches face. The conversation highlights the importance of meaning-centred coaching and the impact of coaching presence on creating a nurturing environment for clients as well as coaches. Reflective practice is also examined as a tool for professional development. We explore: What is self-care, presence, and reflective practice and how are they linked? What's the relationship between reflective practice and supervision? What is the significance of working with meaning for both clients and coaches? What is whole-person coaching? How can self-care help coaches build strong, co-created relationships with clients? How can we ensure that we are role-modelling self-care to our clients? How can we further develop our ability to be present to our clients? How can we counteract negative self-talk and ‘heroic thinking' in order to be a better coach? What does the research say on the effectiveness of reflective practice? In this conversation we ask what self-care, presence, and reflective practice mean practically for both the coach and the coachee, and the impact that they have on coaching outcomes. Furthermore, we can consider self-care, presence, and reflective practice as tools for professional development, self-improvement for our own well-being and as part of a duty of care to our clients. Our guests today are: Dr Iain McCormick is the founder of the Executive Coaching Centre in Auckland, New Zealand.

Here at the Arizona K12 Center, we're big proponents of reflecting on your practice. But what does it mean to be a reflective practitioner and how do we use that reflection to not be the end goal but a tool to generate change in ourselves and our learners? Dr. Kevin Roessger, associate professor of adult and lifelong learning at the University of Arkansas, has focused his work in quantitative research methodologies and adult learning theory. In this episode, he talks with host Paula about what led to this interest and the research he has done in critical reflection or reflective practice. Dr. Roessger emphasizes how reflection is often thought of as the end goal when that is truly a tool in the process of continued growth. He shares about what reflection truly is – our “remembering self” retelling and framing the experiences of our “experiencing self.” In this episode, Paula also references her conversations with The Learning Scientists in previous episodes of 3Ps in a Pod. Dr. Roessger also mentions a recently published article in the Adult Learning journal, “Assessment Strategies for Reflective Learning in the Workplace: A Pragmatic Approach.” Learn more about the Arizona K12 Center at azk12.org.

About Experiments in ReflectionWhile we often think of reflection as a way to consider what is or was, it can also be a powerful tool for imagining and shaping what could be. Drawing on the science, art, and practice of reflection, this book guides you through hands-on experiments that help you make meaning out of your experiences and support your goals and values.Educator and scientist Leticia Britos Cavagnaro sets up each experiment with a hypothesis, a method, and guidance for gauging your results. You'll build concrete skills, learn how to shift your mindsets, and strengthen your ability to reflect with purpose.Experiments in Reflection helps you tune in to your environment, train your intuition, and shape the future.

Happy New Year and welcome to Season 7 of the Live By Design Podcast!
We interview Dr. Robert Biswas-Diener, a leading authority on strengths, culture, courage, and happiness, about his extensive research in these areas and his pioneering work in the application of positive psychology to coaching. We explore the concept of psychological richness and its practical implications for improving our quality of life, the distinction between happiness and optimal happiness, and why self-reflection and engaging in difficult things is so important for improving our well-being. Dr. Robert Biswas-Diener is widely known as the “Indiana Jones of Positive Psychology” because his research has taken him to such far-flung places as Greenland, India, Kenya, and Israel. He has authored seven books, including the 2007 PROSE Award winner "The Courage Quotient," "Happiness," and the New York Times bestseller "The Upside of Your Dark Side," with Dr. Todd Kashdan, one of our first guests on Flourish FM. His most recent book is "Positive Provocation: 25 Questions to Elevate Your Coaching Practice," published in 2023. He has authored more than 60 peer-reviewed academic articles and chapters, two of which are “citation classics” (each cited more than 1,000 times).

In this episode, we explore the importance of distinguishing between reactive and reflective states of mind. Reactivity is often driven by fear, panic, stress, and anxiety, and it can be an indicator of a lack of trust in oneself and the business built. On the other hand, being reflective allows for the necessary space to think, evaluate options, and find solutions. We discuss how it's easy to slip into a reactive state when facing problems, emphasizing the need to pause, calm down, and assess the situation. Trusting in your business to provide stability and support is essential. Breathe deeply and ask yourself, "What is the worst thing that could happen?" Take control of what's within your power and give yourself some space to distance from the issue. We introduce the concept of fear-setting, a powerful exercise that helps conquer fears by defining and assessing them on a scale of 1 to 10. This exercise can reveal that some fears might not be as significant as initially thought, allowing you to address them more reflectively and proactively. As a leader, operating from a reflective state is crucial. Taking time to assess and reflect on situations enables finding the best possible solutions. It's vital to recognize when you're in a reactive state and take the necessary steps to disengage and evaluate the situation. Trust in yourself and the business you've built, and strive to operate from a reflective state.
