What can I expect from a Health Coach?

You are the driver in health coaching, and your Health Coach is there to provide support and motivation along the way.

When you work with a Health Coach, you can expect the following:
💖 Identification of your strengths and values to create alignment with your goals
💖 Guidance along the self-discovery process to support your long-term success
💖 Being met where you are to help you create lasting holistic wellness habits

💖And more!
Health Coaches can support you as you focus on each of these facets of holistic wellness.
What exactly does a health coaching session look like?
The first health coaching session is geared towards getting to know you - learning about your background with holistic wellness, your vision for your health and your strengths and values. Each health coaching session also dedicates time to identifying one or more short-term goals.Your Health Coach will ask you questions that will help you set short-term goals that feel doable, connected to your long-term objectives and excited about achieving the goal or goals.
What do I need to do before a health coaching session?
