Through her innovative “adaptive coaching” approach, she guides individuals to tackle their deepest challenges, face their fears, and cultivate a profound sense of self-trust and resilience.

In this episode Melinda and Ali talk about:

Changing and expanding core values to adapt to current needs
Prioritizing rest and imperfection over productivity for well-being
Helping clients discover and value new priorities
Redefining productivity as a state of being rather than constant doing
Adaptive coaching: leaning into curiosity, research, and client empowerment
Trusting the client and providing structure in the change process
Experiencing adaptive processes firsthand before coaching others
Developing the “Truths with Food” methodology based on Ali’s personal healing journey
Addressing root causes and adaptability for deep transformation in coaching
Focusing on non-food rewards, pleasure in exercise, and evidence-based frameworks

“Transformational change is: How do we get the survivor self to be in that healthy adult self? How do we help it evolve?” — Ali Shapiro
