We are delighted to welcome Special Guest Speaker Dr Kath Jones to our LifeMed Practice session for

"Beyond “What’s Wrong”: Coaching Conversations That Restore Agency"

Many people feel stuck when symptoms persist but tests don’t provide clear answers — caught between chasing certainty and being left without a workable plan. In this session, Kath will share a practical, coach-friendly framework for creating forward movement through nervous system safety, meaning-making and small sustainable steps. You’ll leave with language and tools you can use immediately to support agency, confidence and hope.

Dr Kath Jones is a GP in the Scottish Highlands and the founder of Wild-Ness Health, a mission-led organisation supporting more sustainable, human-centred healthcare. She specialises in the “in-between” moments when symptoms don’t fit neatly into diagnoses or pathways, blending clinical safety with coaching-informed communication and recovery-focused planning. Kath teaches and speaks nationally on sustainable practice and restoring agency when certainty runs out.

This week's Live Session is LifeMed Clinical, our monthly reflective practice session.  LifeMed Clinical sessions are a reflective space for you to bring whatever is important to you in your Lifestyle Medicine or Coaching practice. 

If you do bring a case to the session, please ensure that confidentiality is maintained and no patient-identifiable information is used.

If you have topics that you would like to discuss but would prefer these not to be included in the recording please let us know either during or shortly after the session and we will edit these out.  We're here to help and support you.

Dr Caroline Gibson continues her Coaching Skills Workshop series with

"When Coaching Conversations Get Stuck: from drama to empowerment in health coaching"

Many coaching challenges aren’t about motivation or knowledge — they’re about stuck relational patterns that quietly drain energy and block change. This session explores the Drama Triangle (Victim–Rescuer–Persecutor) and how these roles can show up in health and lifestyle coaching.

We’ll look at common scenarios such as chronic illness, burnout and frustration with systems, where blame, helplessness, or over-responsibility can take over — sometimes without anyone realising it’s happening. You’ll learn how to recognise these dynamics and support clients to move towards greater empowerment and agency — without minimising the very real challenges they face.

The emphasis is on responsibility without blame, compassion without rescuing, and supporting sustainable change in complex, real-world contexts.

Sessions are led by Dr Caroline Gibson, a qualified coach and coaching supervisor. 

This week's Live Session is LifeMed Knowledge.

We are delighted to welcome special guest speaker Dr Callum Leese from the BSLM's Movement Prescription podcast. More details coming soon...
