Health Coaching - 101
IF I HIRE A HEALTH COACH, WHERE DO WE START?
Simply tell your story. Let's listen together and then begin.
​
THEN WHAT HAPPENS?
By exploring the story we discover small, manageable steps to make forward progress. Each step is custom designed BY YOU. Wow, can that happen? Absolutely!
This is where the expertise of a Health Coach comes in. I don't tell you what to do, but I act as a partner so you can come up with the solutions. YOU ARE YOUR BEST EXPERT! Even better, there is no guilt, judgments or "shoulds." I gently assist you to decipher what will make your outcome successful.
​
WHY CAN'T SOMEONE JUST TELL ME WHAT TO DO?
Looking for the magic answer? Voilà, you have it! No one else can tell you what it is but you. l can help you listen for your own magic answer and assist you with a plan to move forward.
WHAT IF I CAN'T SEEM TO MOVE FORWARD?
Everyone has blocks, barriers and gremlins that hold us back. I will help you get past those gremlins and find a route around, over, under or through a barrier or block. The right path is available.
​
WHAT IF I NEED HELP FROM SOMEONE IN ADDITION TO A HEALTH COACH?
This is why I am an Integrative Health Coach. Sometimes clients need multiple practitioners for help. Clients find modalities from either eastern or western medicine (or both) are appropriate. I advocate for what you decide is best. I partner with other practitioners and can be of assistance as a resource.
​
I UNDERSTAND THAT CHANGE CAN BE CHALLENGING.
Making a change or finding your path is not always easy. But there is opportunity to explore and discover what inspires you. Together, we will take an approach that compliments your personal life, philosophies and values. Ultimately, I view you as a whole person and include all dimensions of your health and well-being to individualize your goals and desires.
A Health Coach doesn't wear a whistle or make you run laps. That being said, your results might make you want to whistle or run laps. Together, we will cultivate the best possible you!
So, How Does It Work?
What Does It Take To Find Success?
Ideal clients are ready to make a change; they are sick and tired of being sick and tired. They want to take control of their well-being, be heard, explore options to make life improvements and find ways to move forward instead of feeling stuck. They want to find balance, peace, playfulness, forgiveness, gratitude and leave the guilt behind. And as they work through the process, they are willing to make time to celebrate their successes.
If you aren't sure you are ready, we can assess how to get there.
