Preparation
Preheat to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking dish or equivalent with butter or ghee.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground chorizo until browned and cooked through, about 5–6 minutes. Drain excess fat if needed.
In a bowl, whisk eggs, heavy cream, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir in cheese, bell pepper, onion, and cooked chorizo.
Pour mixture into the greased baking dish. Top with extra cheese or jalapeños if desired. Bake for 22–25 minutes or until the center is just set.
Let cool slightly before slicing. Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired.
Coaching isn’t just about movement and programming—it’s also about conversation. Yet most coaches haven’t been trained to guide dialogue with the same rigor they bring to physical training. This conversation introduces the key principles of OARS:
Open-ened questions
Affirmation
Reflective listening
Summarizing
The Art and Science of Uncomfortable Conversations explores how Motivational Interviewing provides an evidence-based framework for helping people change—without pressure or gimmicks.
We also touch on the Transtheoretical Model of Change, giving you practical tools to recognize where a client is in their journey and adjust your approach. Just as we teach physical skills, we can also teach communication strategies that build trust, reinforce effort, and create high-agency environments for lasting results.
