Health Coaching focuses on coaching specifically related to building a healthier lifestyle. You can think of health coaching as sitting at the intersection of health information and behavior change. Health coaches have a working knowledge of diet, lifestyle, and nutrition, but they are not taking the place of nutritionists/dieticians. They understand how these contributors to health affect the body, which helps them understand and empathize with clients’ health challenges. Coaches also have the tools and skills to help clients build new habits and make lasting changes. This is what makes health coaches unique in the healthcare industry--they are not just a source of information but a catalyst for transformation. Health is not a one size fits all and it is important to find what works for you as an individual. Accountability is a huge factor in this process. It's important to finds ways to achieve your health goals while enjoying the process so you'll stick with the new healthy habits.​
