Dr Yvonne Couch - Coaching and Self-Reflection

Dr Yvonne Couch - Coaching and Self-Reflection

Dr Yvonne Couch, narrates her blog written for the Dementia Researcher website.

In this blog, Yvonne shares her experience of working with a coach to explore identity, confidence, and purpose in academia. Through a humorous and vulnerable lens, she outlines how coaching has helped her challenge ingrained behaviours, understand her motivations, and untangle self-worth from professional achievement. The post highlights why self-reflection matters and how coaching can offer a constructive, external perspective for academics at all stages.
