If you think of self-actualization as closing the gap between what you value

and how you show up, that's a really powerful lens to use coaching through.

Hello and welcome to the Psychology Podcast. Today we welcome Alexi Robasho to the show.

Alexi is the co-founder and CEO of Better Up, a mobile platform that brings together

world-class coaching, AI technology, and behavioral science to deliver sustainable

positive change. Alexi is also the chairman of Youth Leadership America. They have

collaborated with leading companies including Disney, Google, and Hilton Hotels to coach

and mentor future leaders. Alexi holds a BA in political science and non-profit

management with Summa Cum Laude distinction from the University of Southern California.

In this episode, I talk to Alexi about the future of coaching.

There are countless ways to practice coaching, but Alexi believes coaching must be rooted in

science-based techniques and reliable outcomes, which is precisely what they do at Better Up.

Coaching is not a replacement for therapy, but it can help individuals become more resilient

and purposeful in their daily lives. We also touch on the topics of self-actualization,

flow, languishing, imagination, and Alexi's vision for the future of coaching.

I really enjoyed this conversation with someone who is really on the cutting edge of the science

of coaching profession. I'm sure you can imagine there are many, many coaches with all different

sorts of claim certificates and qualifications. And what I really like about Alexi is that he

makes sure that his coaches are up to date on the latest information and knowledge that can

help all people thrive. So without further ado, I bring you Alexi Robucho.

Alexi, I'm so glad to finally chat with you on the psychology podcast.

Likewise, it's an honor to be here. Thanks for having me.
