To help you with this assignment, have your friend think about a quality of life issue that they would like to change (less fried food, less fast food, eat more fruit, increase connections with loved ones, become more organized, etc). Please have your friend select a topic that is a genuine desire to change.
You should start the conversation with “Tell me about the concern that brought you in today.”
