    Today's guest, Marquetta Spant, is the founder of P21 Mind-Body Wellness Coaching and is here to tell us about her program.   In this episode, we talk about… Marquetta's health journey, which involved getting to the bottom of hormonal imbalance issues. The importance of doing your own research and becoming your own best advocate for your health. The butterfly method for assessing four major pillars that affect your health. How and why Marquetta uses Meal Garden to help her clients. The importance of working on the emotional and perceptional side of things, rather than just the biological. More about Marquetta Spant: Hello, my name is Marquetta Spant, the founder and owner of P21 Mind-Body Wellness Coaching. P21 stands for the “Power of 21” and is centered around Maxwell Maltz's habit formation quote, “It takes 21 days to make or break a habit.” Research now shows it takes a minimum of three weeks of perpetual action for a new habit to really set in and start becoming part of your subconscious mind. For many years, I suffered from hormonal imbalances (PMS, Painful Menstrual Cycles, Over and Underactive Thyroid), gut-imbalances, weight issues, and self-sabotaging emotional abuse. I tried approach after approach to resolve these issues. Nothing from the standard medical model was able to free me from my own prison. Finally, enough was enough, and I made a desperate plea, declaring that if I could heal myself of these conditions, I would spend the rest of my life helping others heal as well. I was introduced to natural health, and over the course of ten years, I researched advanced mind and body modalities, healing herbs, quality products, nutraceuticals, and services to help me heal at both a cellular and energetic level. With a combination of Bioenergetics, Nutrition, and Natural Healing methods, I've taken the knowledge and experience I had learned and created programs and protocols to empower my clients to take control over their health. I accompany my clients in person and remotely as they journey through the P21 Healthy Adult Lifestyle Change Program.   I received my training from the Tad James Co., Heart Math Institute, ZYTO Technologies, and the Institute for Integrative Nutrition*, where I studied neuro-linguistics programming, bioenergetics, and a variety of dietary theories and practical lifestyle coaching methods. With my knowledge, we co-create completely personalized actions based on your goals to move you toward your ideal vision of health within your unique body, lifestyle, preferences, and resources. Education: I earned my Master's Degree In Project Management and certifications in Coaching, Hypnotherapy, Time Line Therapy®, Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), Core Alignment Coaching, Integrative Nutrition Health Coaching, Pranic Healing, HeartMath Intervention, EVOX 5.0 and ZYTO Select 5.0.

Not all health coaches offer just one way their clients can work with them and the length of their programs can vary. What are the pros and cons of running short term and long-term coaching programs and what are the varying lengths of programs you see being used by coaches right now? A shorter program sounds like it could be a good starting point for some clients. How do coaches then lead clients to the next step of a longer program?  What are some things that should be included in each of these programs?   Do you have any suggestions about pricing a shorter program?   Are there any common mistakes you see being made that should be avoided?   Kathleen's website: www.healthcoachsolutions.net  --- *Inviting your feedback: What value did you get out of this podcast episode?

    Everything Nutrition Pros Need To Know About Easy-To-Understand Credible Science-Based Info

    Today Kiki has a fun and lighthearted--totally casual--chat about nutrition research with Lindsay Carvalho & Leesa Klich - in particular, we address how to find credible research to answer your clients' burning questions! Some on the content included in this episode... Where can nutrition pros find easy-to-understand credible science-based info on  Foods and how much nutrition is in them Supplements - by active ingredient (nutrient) or brand quality certifications Health goals and medical conditions Where can nutrition pros dive into the studies themselves? What's PubMed?  How do you find studies you're looking for?  How do you know the studies are high-quality? More about our guests... Lindsay's love for Holistic Nutrition started after she developed Hashimoto's Thyroiditis in 2008, and she learned how much of a role good food played in her health and wellbeing. She started her career in Molecular Biology and Genetics after graduating from Guelph University with a Bachelor of Science with Honours, working in labs doing research up until her family needed her at home. At that time, she completed the Natural Nutrition Program at CSNN in 2015 and has been integrating her knowledge of holistic nutrition with her family, friends, and clients. Her background in Biology, Biochemistry, and Genetics has helped give her a deeper understanding of the workings of nutrition and the role it has on the body, which she now shares with the students at CSNN and Grant MacEewan University. She is a firm believer in evidence based nutrition science and brings her passion on this topic to the classroom to ensure students are up to date on current research, which enables graduates to provide the best possible recommendations to their clients. --- Leesa Klich is on a mission to help credible research-based health professionals publish, share, and get found online with amazing content to build their practices and improve public health on an epic scale. Leesa combines her Master of Science degree with her love of writing and editing, and passion for learning. She's the main creative nerd at leesaklich.com and co-host of the podcast rEATsearch where you can hear her enthusiasm for sharing high-quality clinical studies about health and nutrition. --- Helpful links: Leesa's site: https://leesaklich.com/ Lindsay's site: https://www.lindsaycarvalho.com/ rEATsearch podcast (bite-sized studies with a touch of nerdiness): https://podcasts.bcast.fm/reatsearch #JustBuyPlain (gut-brain episode): https://podcasts.bcast.fm/e/1npyymr8 The real deal about real (vs. ultra-processed) food episode: https://podcasts.bcast.fm/e/l8qlqvxn Links to credible sites mentioned (Leesa's blog): https://leesaklich.com/health-research/reliable-resources/ --- *Inviting your feedback: What value did you get out of this podcast episode?
