Health Coaching - changing our conversations Let's chat health

I am Anne Budenberg and started on this podcast journey when I was unable to complete an article I started to write in 2019. My solution to this unfinished writing was to make a podcast, with 5 episodes on the topics I tried to explore in my writing.
This is created from three perspectives
as a daughteras a healthcare professional (dentist) with some knowledge of the NHS system, and through the eyes of the patient
In this episode I'm speaking to Dr Andrew McDowell, founder of TPC Health.
Andrew is a psychologist, coach and leadership professional with more than 30 years experience of innovation in the health and care sector.
We are speaking about Health Coaching - what it is, and how it fits within health care interactions. How can we change the quality of the conversation we have with patients so that they are supported, and motivated to change their behaviour to improve their health. Research shows that traditional healthcare models where healthcare professionals are seen as fixers are not sufficient, but they need to be be working in partnership with patients, as enablers. Patients have the resources both internally and externally to improve their health and well-being.
