Reflections on hosting our first guest, allowing space for fear, worth, panic and how we can better collaborate with our patients

Real Clinicians Real Chats

Kit and Alex reflect on their first experience of having a guest in their podcast home, appreciating the value of inviting real clinicians on rather than subject experts.

Kit shares her recent change in clinic life with taking on a new lease for her biz. She speaks about how the transition is bringing up deeper layers around fear, doubt and self-worth and how she’s noticing how those parts are sitting alongside the openness, expansion and playfulness in an embodied way.

They discuss how Kit navigated “struggle town” through the challenges that emerged with the move and how that can relate to life in clinic with the people we work alongside. They explore about how to be with people in their challenges, allowing space for fear, worth, panic, and making space for each individuals felt sense knowledge that is different to intellectual knowing.

Alex brings in research around what patients require for collaboration in terms of structure and un-structured time within session to communicate their unique experiences. They talk about how we hold different frameworks / maps as guides that can bring some structure or shape to sessions whilst allowing for unstructured time to allow for building trust and the relationship.
