FAQ's

I know, you still have a ton of questions.

  • What the difference between coaching and therapy?
    Therapy focuses on personal and emotional healing. It delves into past experiences, emotions, and thought patterns to address underlying issues and promote healing. Health coaching, on the other hand, is forward-focused. It helps individuals create actionable plans to improve their overall well-being. A health coach partners with you to set goals, overcome obstacles, and develop sustainable healthy habits. While both can be beneficial, they address different needs. If you're struggling with persistent negative thoughts, feelings, or behaviors, therapy might be a good fit. If you're ready to take control of your health and create positive lifestyle changes, health coaching can be a powerful tool. I like to think of therapy as addressing mental illness, while coaching focuses on mental fitness. A health coach is your partner in creating a healthier you. It's important to note that some people may benefit from both therapy and coaching.

  • Why does someone need a personal coach?
    The truth is, everyone can benefit from expert guidance to achieve wellness and becoming the best version of themselves. The best athletes, successful business leaders, and even other coaches rely on expert guidance from a coach, you too can benefit from having a dedicated coach in your corner. Whether you struggle with motivation, lack confidence, need accountability, or desire to break unhealthy habits, a health coach can provide the support and tools you need to succeed. By offering a fresh perspective, valuable insights, and practical strategies, I empower you to achieve your health goals and create lasting positive change.
  • What topics do you address?
    Don't think "health" or "wellness" coaching only refers to diet and exercise. Everything we do, experience, and desire can be addressed with coaching. Common coaching topics include: healthy eating, exercise/activity, stress management, anxiety, sleep hygiene, burnout, confidence, mindfulness, environment, habit/behavior change, life goals/design, job satisfaction, relationships, and accountability, among others. The beauty of coaching is that I coach the person, not the problem. The strategies, tools, and mindset training addressed during coaching can be applied to nearly any aspect of life.

  • Will you just tell me what I should do?
    I'm sure people have been telling you your whole life what you should do. How has that worked out? You and I both know being told what to do doesn't work. Coaching aims to discover what works best for you. And who knows better what works for you, than you? Everyone has their own preferences, strengths, and challenges. What works for me, won't necessarily work for you. For instance, why is it that so many people are unsuccessful with "diets"? Because it doesn't work for them. Finding what is tailored to fit your specific situation is the key to lasting lifestyle change. It's not enough to do things different, you need to be different.
  • Who would not benefit from coaching?
    I would love to say that everyone can be coached, and given enough time, they probably can be. That being said, if you are looking for quick fixes, crash diets, shortcuts/hacks, or a one-size-fits-all type of approach to health and happiness, you won't find that here. Coaching is for people looking for sustainable lifestyle change, and have reasonable expectations of what they want to achieve and are willing to take action. Coaching is not a passive endeavor; no one can achieve results without putting in the work.
  • How do I know if coaching is right for me?
    This is a difficult questions to answer, so first consider these questions: Are you willing to be open-minded? Are you willing to step outside of your comfort zone? Are you willing to commit to self-growth? Are you willing to put in hard work? If you can honestly answer "yes" to these questions, then I think you will benefit from coaching.
  • What can I expect during our sessions?
    My coaching approach focuses on empowering you to explore possibilities and solutions. Rather than providing a one-size-fits-all plan, I'll ask thought-provoking questions to help you uncover your inner wisdom and motivation. Together, we'll refine your plan as needed, ensuring it aligns with your evolving needs and priorities. Unlike traditional approaches that offer generic advice, my coaching methodology emphasizes individualization. Results are going to be based on your unique circumstances, your personality, what's important to you. I believe that lasting change comes from within, and my role is to guide you on your journey, helping you build the skills and confidence to achieve Real Health and Real Happiness.
  • Why should I choose you to be my coach?
    This is a great question! First, in order to work together, we need to make sure we are a good fit for one another. This is why a Discovery Consult is so important. Here's what I can guarantee: Highly personalized coaching at your pace, focused solely on your goals. My only agenda is to help you achieve your goals. Complete confidentiality. I ensure the highest level of confidentiality so that your information always stays private. A safe space for you to be yourself. Coaching doesn't work if you can't be yourself. My job is to build a genuine relationship with you so you can feel free to fully express yourself, without judgement or criticism. I will be right by your side, every step of the way. The beauty of effective coaching is having someone you can rely on, someone who will ask the tough questions, hold you accountable, and keep you on track. Just tell me what you need, and if it's in my power to do it, I will. Complete honesty. Every great coach knows that being completely honest is crucial. My job is not to sugar coat things for you or to cheer you on. Being completely honest means listening with a nonjudgmental, open-heart and reflecting back to you exactly what I see/hear. Sometimes this will be uncomfortable, but we need to work through the discomfort in order to get real results. That's as much as I can tell you right now. To find out whether or not I am the right coach for you, we need talk about your needs and whether or not I can meet them. Book a discovery consult with me today!
  • Will you give me homework?
    I like to think of it as MindWork, but yes. Coaching is not a passive endeavor. Most of the homework you receive will be exercises that will challenge your current way of thinking, discovering what is truly important to you, ultimately revealing what is needed to reach your goals.
  • Will you try to sell me supplements?
    Nope. Never. Seriously, no! I don't believe supplements are required to achieve Real Health.

Ready to Get Started?

I know change isn't easy, but anything worth doing rarely is.  Believe me when I tell you I've been there.  Do I continue to go through the motions of daily life, hoping that one day things will change?  Or do I finally take matters into my own hands? This could be the decision that changes everything.
