Episode 305: Mastering Coaching Communication with Brett Bartholomew
About this Episode
Welcome back to the Flex Diet Podcast! I’m Dr. Mike T. Nelson, your host, and in this episode, I’m diving into ways to boost performance, build muscle, and improve body composition—all within a flexible framework. I’m excited to be joined by Brett Bartholomew, the mind behind The Art of Coaching and author of Conscious Coaching. Together, we explore the many interactions coaches and trainers face, the value of practice in learning, and some of the latest fitness trends like cold plunges and red light therapy.
We also dive into the critical role of communication and discuss how AI is shaping the future of coaching. Brett shares his inspiring journey from being a strength and conditioning coach to focusing on leadership development and conflict resolution.
