This book aims not only to document reflections on personal growth, but also to share insights gained from shifting to a person-centered language. At the same time, I strive to maintain Motivational Interviewing's core essence, respect foundational research, and enable development for competent trainers, coaches, and facilitators. All of this is for the ultimate goal of serving others meaningfully! Welcome aboard - to explore thoughts, feelings, and experiences about authentic connections between human beings as we navigate the complexities of helping relationships!
