What is a Health Coach?
I get asked often what I do as a health coach.
In fact, it's the first credential I list after my name: IIN Health Coach. (IIN = Institute for Integrative Nutrition).
Being a health coach goes beyond the parameters of programming workouts or talking about protein.
It is the "big picture" work to which I am most fundamentally called. It's embracing the idea that health and wellness are an integration of all facets of life that nourish and fuel us.
Being a health coach means I value the coach-client relationship long-term.
Just like I don't endorse or offer quick-fix solutions, neither do I operate on a "quick, high volume client grab" model - the 1:1, ebb and flow through the real moments of life type of professional relationship is my priority.
Anyone who's been at the studio knows it's just that! A small space. Not a gym, not a place to feel overwhelmed or judged. Not a place where you have to "look the part" to show up.
So, while I of course LOVE the specifics of what I teach (Barre or Pilates, strength training, meal prep, running, healthy snacking, etc.)... what I prioritize is the client and their bio-individual goals.
Being a WELL person is more than fitness and nutrition. It's community, belonging, confidence, grace, balance, imperfection, rest. It’s knowing that eating all the kale in the world or working out 24/7 don’t make you healthy if you don’t sleep well or have chronic stress.
It's the Whole Plate of those things that make us well.
Strong is the long game. Nourished is the long game.
