    EP 92: The Science of Not Giving Up (And How to Coach It)

    Your client falls off the plan. You tweak the plan. They fall off again. In this episode, Dr. Kasey Jo Orvidas breaks down why changing the plan isn't fixing the problem, and what's actually going on underneath it: psychological flexibility. Research consistently links it to better outcomes in weight loss, exercise adherence, and emotional regulation, and it's one of the most overlooked skills in coaching.   In this episode, she covers: What psychological flexibility actually is (and what it's not)The research linking psychological flexibility to better client outcomesThe six core processes from the Acceptance Commitment Therapy model and how to apply each one in coachingThe specific language patterns that signal a client is psychologically inflexible, including "just tell me what to do," "if I can't do it perfectly why bother," and "I'll start over Monday"How to reinforce flexible behavior when it's already showing up in your clientsWhy reconnecting clients to their values is what makes discomfort meaningful instead of just hard  If you've ever had a client who looked motivated, said all the right things, and still couldn't follow through, this episode is for you.   Connect with me on Instagram!  Grab 5 Free Lessons in Mindset and Behavior Change Coaching [HMCC WAITLIST] LEAVE A REVIEW, WIN A WORKSHOP!

    EP 90: 5 Coaching Strategies for More Consistent Clients

    Have you ever watched a client fall off track and chalked it up to a lack of motivation? What if that's not actually what's going on? Clients who can't seem to stick to the plan might have nothing to do with motivation and everything to do with this: lack of discomfort tolerance. The process of behavior change requires staying resilient when things get uncomfortable, and this is something coaches are almost never taught how to help their clients build. Until now. In this episode, Dr. Kasey Jo Orvidas breaks down the real reason clients struggle to stick to the plan and shares practical strategies coaches can start using right away. She covers: Why clients don't struggle because they don't know what to do (they struggle because they can't tolerate the discomfort that comes with doing it)The research behind self-efficacy, stress mindset, and psychological flexibility and why it all matters for behavior change5 coaching strategies to build discomfort tolerance, including urge surfing, stress reappraisal, and reflective debriefingThe coaching mistakes that accidentally keep clients stuckIf you want to help clients push through the hard stuff and actually see results that last, this episode is for you.   Connect with me on Instagram!  Grab 5 Free Lessons in Mindset and Behavior Change Coaching [HMCC WAITLIST] LEAVE A REVIEW, WIN A WORKSHOP!

    EP 87: Are GLP-1 Medications Putting Coaches Out of Business?

    Are you worried GLP-1 medications will make coaches obsolete? Medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro are changing the weight loss conversation, but they're not replacing the work coaches do. In fact, they're making behavior change coaching more essential than ever. In this episode, Dr. Kasey Jo Orvidas breaks down what GLP-1s actually do, why 50-75% of users stop taking them within a year, and how coaches can support clients using these medications while staying ethically grounded and professionally valuable. You'll learn: What GLP-1 medications actually do (and what they don't teach clients about behavior change, mindset, or long-term habits)Why people still need coaches even when medication accelerates weight lossHow to navigate the ethical dilemma of posting client transformations when GLP-1 use is involvedSix ways coaches can support clients on GLP-1s, from muscle preservation to managing identity shifts and shameWhy the future of coaching requires more psychology, communication skills, and mindset work (not less)Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/gKmAYVkVbDg Register for my FREE 3-Day Training: The Coaching Code Connect with me on Instagram!  Grab 5 Free Lessons in Mindset and Behavior Change Coaching [HMCC WAITLIST] LEAVE A REVIEW, WIN A WORKSHOP!
