Ep#1 – Species of Hope – w/Emily Crotteau

  • Summary

  • In the inaugural episode of Any Thoughts On, the show where advisors, mentors and practitioners discuss their craft, Tee welcomes Emily Crotteau to the show. Emily moonlights as a body work specialist and is one of Tee's favorite coaches currently practicing.

    Emily and Tee trade thoughts on two primary questions:

    1) How can you know whether your work with a given practitioner (coach, therapist, etc.) is going well?

    2) How much does it make sense to pay for something like coaching and/or therapy?

    Show highlights below:

    – 7:22 – How do you know a coaching relationship is going well? Tee introduces a three-point mental model to help determine whether your work with a given practitioner is going well:

    • 1) Optimism/hope – do I feel like there's a reasonable chance that I can achieve what I want from this based on the experience(s) thus far? (This can include vibe/rapport etc.)
    • 2) Emotional resonance – was the experience moving for me in a noticeable way?
    • 3) Reasonable expectations and/or progression – do I have a justified outside- or inside-view (set of) reason(s) to continue with this?
