contribution to the development of Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis. Michael, along with co-authors
Jonathan Smith and Paul Flowers, recently published the second edition of Interpretative Phenomenological
Analysis: Theory, Method and Research (2022). In the interview, Michael was asked about his personal
journey within qualitative research, his approach to teaching qualitative research methods and his hopes
for the future of the discipline. The interview was conducted by Dr Sophie Williams (Senior Lecturer in
Health Psychology, University of Derby) and shaped into the following article by Dr India Amos (Senior
