ADHD and Journey Thinking

Asher Collins and Dusty Chipura
About this episode

In this episode of Translating ADHD Season 2, Episode 2, hosts Ash and Cam discuss the concept of "journey thinking." They emphasize the importance of journey thinking in the coaching process for both clients and coaches. Journey thinking involves focusing on the process rather than fixating on a specific destination or outcome. They use metaphors like standing on stepping stones in a foggy pond and unraveling a sweater to illustrate this mindset.

The hosts also mention the challenges of detaching from outcomes and share insights on how both clients and coaches can develop curiosity and navigate the coaching process effectively. They highlight the value of the show's Discord community in promoting journey thinking among listeners.
