Choose the Right Health Coach for You

There are millions of health coaches in the U.S. today. Choosing the right health coach matters. Here are considerations when you work with a health coach:

1. Education matters. Make sure they are certified as a health coach. Bonus, they have a background in health and wellness (I.e. bachelor's or master's degree in health and wellness). Make sure they are truly credible. Trust your instincts.

2. Experience. What kind of experience do they have? Make sure they have professional and relatable experience.

3. Are they relatable? Can they relate to clients? This is a big one for me! There is more to this field than education and accountability. Can they truly appreciate and empathize with clients?

4. Do they stay within their scope of practice. I won't get too detailed here because this is something that makes me cringe daily, however, it's vital a legit health coach and personal trainer stay within their scope of practice. For example: Selling medications or supplements, providing meal plans, etc., is not suitable and within their scope of practice. Stay away!!!

5. Does their personality mesh well with yours? Yes, this matters. You have to be able to connect, relate, and feel comfortable with your health coach.

6. Long-Term Success and Trust. Many clients stay with me for years, not months. Take this into consideration when working or thinking about working with a health coach.
