I have been looking forward to sharing this new episode with guest Melissa Lapides since we recorded this conversation a little while back. I first became aware of Melissa's work a year or so ago and have so appreciated learning more about her approaches to trauma-informed practice.

I also came to learn more about her experiences transitioning from psychotherapy to coaching and back again, plus her stance on trauma-informed coaching and its importance. When I saw Melissa sharing more about ethics in the coaching industry and advocating for change through her collaboration with others committed to ethical practice in coaching, I was even more drawn in and curious to know more.

I was delighted when Melissa said yes to joining me to create this conversation for you all. Whether you are a mental health professional of some kind, coaching, or leading an online service business, I am certain you will find value in all we talk about in this episode.

In this episode, you'll hear us talk through the following topics
