Journaling and thought work are not the same thing. And if you've been mixing them up, the change you're looking for may be stalled at the surface.

In this Coach Corner, I answer a real question from a Groundwork client who has been deep in the podcast. She noticed I keep talking about thought work and cognitive behavioral coaching, and she asked: is that the same as what I'm doing when I journal?

It's not. And knowing the difference changes everything.

In this episode you will learn:

What journaling is, what the research says, and exactly what it does and does not do
What thought work is and how it accesses the three levels of thought that journaling cannot reach
The difference between CBT and CBC and which one applies to coaching
How to decide which tool to use with your client based on where they are in their journey
Why CBC is the evidence-backed gold standard for body image and eating behavior change
