Get people to do what you want with a ā€˜nudge.ā€™ Hereā€™s how.
A nudge is any tool used to influence someoneā€™s behavior that doesnā€™t use incentives or information. We can use them to positively change our clientsā€™ behavior! They are different from laws, rules, and overt manipulation because they still always give our clients a choice ā€” they can decide to do or not do the suggested behavior. Read this CNN interview article with Katy Milkman to learn how to nudge your clients in the right direction!

The Obstacles You Donā€™t See

How the day of the week affects your decisions
Ever notice a pattern of Weekenditis in your clients? Or higher levels of motivation on Monday? The day of the week can significantly affect our decision making, and understanding that and taking advantage of that knowledge, can be quite useful when we, as coaches, are determining when to assign new habit practices or when to schedule our check-ins. Watch this TEDx talk with Jet Sanders to learn more!

Health Coach & Online Trainer

I currently work as a Health Coach for the NHS and also own an Online Training business called Forever Forward Training. My main focus is promoting evidence-based, empathetic and compassionate coaching techniques to help improve individualsā€™ lives through behavior change. I would strongly recommend the HCP Level 1 Certification to anyone who has an interest in behavior change, habit formation, or coaching.
