In my narrative coaching practice, I like looking to the creative arts for inspiration. Films and stories are passions of mine, and narrative coaching obviously draws heavily from storytelling.

But music has much to offer too. Music has played a huge role in my life – it has the power to change my mood, it helps me think, and it can take me back to specific moments in time. 

Music can fuel your soul and can be the soundtrack to your life. I use music as a tool within my narrative coaching practice to help my clients get unstuck when looking to create change in their lives. I might ask – what songs inspire you? What is it about the song that inspires you? What song is playing in your head when you think about change? What words in the song do you most resonate with?

The point of asking these questions is to see what potential new insight they might generate for you. Try it for yourself.
