“I went through that divorce, but I’m more than that divorce.”

There is an important distinction in Michael’s words.

Something painful can be acknowledged honestly without becoming the only language we use to describe ourselves.

The divorce happened. It may have changed the person’s life and left consequences they still need to navigate. They can recognise all of that while also saying, “This is not the last word about me.”

Michael links this with resilience from the inside out and a sense of self that includes acceptance, appreciation and esteem.

We found real strength in the way he held both truths together: this happened to me, and there is still more to me. 🧠💛

She could spend half an hour deciding whether to exercise.

As Michael observed, she could have completed the activity in the same amount of time.

What happened next is exactly why we value his teaching. He did not tell her to become more disciplined or try harder. He became curious about everything happening before she reached the gym.

Once the full routine was visible, they could question it. Which parts were helping? Which were creating delay? What could happen in a better order?

There is real relief in discovering that a struggle may not say something terrible about who we are. It may point to a strategy that needs to be reconsidered. 🧠✨

Where might you be blaming yourself when the sequence deserves a closer look?

Feeling very grateful for our time with Dr Michael Hall and everyone who joined us. Thank you for the curiosity, connection and generosity you brought to these events. 💛

An extra thank you to those who shared their experiences with us, and to Michael for being part of it all. It was a joy to spend this time together!

The learning continues with Figuring Out People in Sydney on 16–18 October, followed by dates across Sydney and Melbourne in 2027. There’s a warm welcome waiting if you’d like to join us.

“We’re needy people.”

Honestly, yes.

We wake up hungry again. We get tired again. We want to feel safe, loved, included and important to the people around us.

The word “needy” is often used as an insult, but Michael speaks about needs without shame. They are part of being human.

The harder part is learning how to meet them. Sometimes we ask clearly. Sometimes we expect people to know. Sometimes we shut down, get frustrated or pretend we do not need anything at all.

That is where the real work begins: noticing what we need and what we tend to do when that need is not being met. 🧠

We’ll keep exploring what sits beneath human behaviour through Figuring Out People in October.

When life becomes difficult, we can feel pressure to hold everything together exactly as it was.

The willow tree offers another way to think about strength. When the weather changes, its branches move. What remains is its connection to the ground beneath it.

Resilience may look similar for us. We can change direction, slow down, ask for help or let go of an approach that no longer fits. None of that means the experience has not affected us, and it does not necessarily mean we have lost our strength.

Being grounded is not the same as being unmoved. It may simply mean remaining connected to what matters while we work out how to respond.

What helps you find your footing when life changes?

A coach can learn models, questions and frameworks.

Integral+ Coach Training asks for something more: the willingness to examine the person using them.

That means noticing your own assumptions, reactions and patterns. It means doing the reflective work yourself, rather than standing safely outside it and asking only your clients to go there.

Helen Pope describes the program as stretching, comprehensive and deeply self-reflective. That honesty matters because meaningful coach training should not be effortless.

It should challenge the way you listen, the conclusions you reach and the responsibility you carry when another person trusts you with their development.

One of the first ideas Dr Michael Hall introduced was living from the inside out.

By the end of the day, Madeleine had found an image for what that meant to her: a willow tree.

Storms, floods and difficult conditions may cause the tree to move and bend, yet its roots provide a source of stability beneath the surface.

Madeleine connected this image to resilience. Rather than expecting ourselves to remain rigid when circumstances change, we may be able to adapt while staying connected to the values, beliefs and inner resources that matter to us.

We absolutely loved hearing Madeleine take something Michael had shared and make it her own. Moments like this show how differently an idea can land for each person in the room. 🌳

Thank you, Madeleine, for sharing your reflection, and thank you, Michael, for the conversation it opened.
