In this episode we discuss how coaching can help with stress and mental health and where coaching stops and counselling starts. We explore how boundaries can be helpful in managing our stress levels and we share a great quote from Brené Brown: “Daring to set boundaries is about having the courage to love ourselves even if we risk upsetting others.” Listen to this episode if you are interested in learning about some of the resources we share with our clients; such as the four wellsprings of wellbeing, which can be useful in determining where to draw energy from; emotions in action, which uses zones to examine how balanced your life and work is in terms of stress levels; Harvard Business Review articles, checklists and apps. We talk about the evolution of shadow and the different stages we go through. We share a key coaching question that helps with one of the most important stages and a quick checklist Gregor likes to go through just to check that we haven’t forgotten the simple physical elements: Sleep; Alcohol; Caffeine; Hydration. We also talk about Mindfulness Apps and mention a great Harvard Business Review article – ”Manage Your Energy, Not Your Time”.
