203. Coaching Can Help you Be a Better Dad (& Husband) with Dr. Adam Was
Manage episode 423922249 series 2882323
This episode answers a question I get often- Do I coach men?
The answer is yes! I am a mom of three young adult men, the sister of two brothers, and a wife. I am surrounded by men. As an institutional wellness leader for over twenty years, I worked with all comers.
In honor of Father’s Day, Dr. Adam Was, joins me to chat about how coaching, which he came to primarily for help with career decision-making, also helped his family life.
He shares the perspective of a physician dad, in a dual-physician household, with three small children, and two dogs.
Coaching helped Adam let go of guilt about working part-time as an academic pediatric anesthesiologist and start taking time for himself.
Adam came to coaching as a way to set himself up for success and to optimize his career satisfaction and work-life balance. He was not in distress or burnt out. And it improved his life tremendously.
He shares that coaching was not at all what he expected and was so much more helpful than he imagined.
Coaching helped increase his patience with his three children under five. It gave him the gift of “of course,” a mantra he uses frequently. It helped him focus on what matters most, improve his communication with his wife, and grow his tolerance for uncertainty.
Mindfulness and meditation are key to Adam’s success. At the end of the episode, he shares how and when he practices it for optimal effect.
Send your male colleagues and your spouses my way. It's often harder for men to reach out for coaching and support. They very often need a loving nudge.
Consider gifting coaching to your co-parent or significant other for Father’s Day, a birthday, or your anniversary. Coaching ends up being a gift for the entire family.
If your co-parent or partner isn't ready for their own coaching yet, jump in yourself. When you change, those around you change. Whether you are in distress and burnt out, under marital stress or parenting overwhelm, or you simply want to optimize, coaching is an incredible tool to change your life and your relationship for the better.
