| 0:00.0 | Hey, deserving listeners. |
| 0:08.0 | I get a lot of questions about the difference between coaching and counseling. |
| 0:13.0 | In particular, patron Lyndon and patron Dr. Glenn have recently asked me about what are my |
| 0:19.0 | thoughts about coaching. So I decided to do a mini deep dive on the |
| 0:24.2 | topic to see what i could find also i asked mike bunderant to come on to the show again |
| 0:31.3 | because he's a coach and a counselor welcome to the podcast mike yeah thanks for having me back, Kirk. I really appreciate it. |
| 0:39.5 | Today, we're going to talk about the differences between coaching and counseling. What are the |

| 1:46.8 | Well, we'll sift through that together. Also, I'm going to ask some tough questions, Mike, |

| 1:59.7 | Yeah, you know, you might as well open your eyes wide and stare at the issue, right? |
| 2:07.2 | Because it's not going away, so let's not run from it. |
| 2:12.0 | Because there are tough questions to be asked and answered about life coaching and mental health counseling too, right? |
