Unlocking Potential: Dr. Jonathan Fader on Motivational Interviewing

Motivational interviewing is mind-bogglingly useful and can be applied in so many different ways, not just in sports. It's shocking to me that more people aren't using it.
Imagine having a conversation that could truly change someone's life, whether they're an athlete, a coach, or just someone looking to reach their full potential. In this episode of 'The Beyond Addiction Show', Dr. Josh King sits down with Dr. Jonathan Fader, a sports psychologist who has worked with the NY Mets and NY Football Giants, to discuss the transformative power of motivational interviewing. Dr.
Fader's new book, 'Coaching Athletes to Be Their Best: Motivational Interviewing in Sports', serves as the backdrop for a rich discussion on stress, coping mechanisms, and the essential principles of motivational interviewing like trust, empathy, and communication. Through engaging anecdotes and practical examples, Dr. Fader illustrates how these techniques can be applied not just in sports but in everyday life.
Whether you're a parent trying to connect with your child, a coach aiming to inspire your team, or someone looking to unlock your own potential, this episode offers valuable insights and actionable tips to help you get there. Tune in for a conversation that's both enlightening and empowering, filled with wisdom that transcends the world of sports.
