What it looks like
Motivational interviewing looks like purposeful conversations that help people explore their own reasons for change, reduce resistance, and move forward with greater commitment. It shows up in everyday interactions — how questions are asked, how listening replaces fixing, and how change conversations feel collaborative rather than confrontational.
