In today's episode we discuss one of the biggest fears clients have when starting to work with a health coach; why will this time be any different?  Many of your clients have worked with coaches/personal trainers before, they've downloaded the e-books, followed the guides, etc...but each time they weren't able to see the results that they wanted. This leads them to have the belief that even when they start something new and go "all in" they will never actually be able to reach the goals that they desire.  In this episode I share with you a sample of what a client-coach conversation might look like to address this fear and overcome it with your client.  For more content like this and to keep learning with us join our FREE Facebook Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/healthcoachescollective  Learn more about our courses, masterclasses, and more at https://www.minbodycoachingacademy.com   Join our community on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/emmagould.co

Do you find yourself struggling with clients who aren't following through, constantly make excuses, and always seem to be “falling off the wagon”?! You are not alone! One of the most common struggles health coaches face is working with clients who are facing resistance to showing up and doing the work they've agreed to do!  You know as the coach that without “doing the work” your clients won't get the results they desire, and of course that makes you feel like you're letting your clients down, but I promise you aren't!  This resistance that your clients are facing is something that even they may not be aware is holding them back, but the good news is that you have the amazing opportunity to help them realize what is holding them back AND guide them to overcome it!  This episode dives into a conversation about what resistance is, and how you as a health coach can help your client overcome it no matter where or how it is affecting their journey.  Want to learn more about topics just like this and more?

In today's episode we explore the idea that, as a health coach, your client's mental health is not only your business...but is a factor in their life that should matter a lot to you! A lot of health coaches are nervous to even discuss mental health/illness with their clients, because they don't want to cross the line out of their scope of practice...and this is a good fear to have!  Especially when it comes to diagnosing and treating mental health/illness that 100% needs to be left up to the trained professionals...but what this doesn't mean that you can't discuss your clients mental health status with them and use that knowledge about them to help shape the way that you work together!  In this episode, we cover the ways in which poor mental health or mental illness can effect your clients health journey, their physical health, and their ability to stick with the work you do together. Additionally, we dive into the many ways that you can talk to your clients about mental health and address mental health in your work WHILE staying well within the lines of your own scope of practice!  Want to learn more about how to incorporate mindset work into your work as a health coach?

In 2021, we are committed to making this the year we make it trendy to nourish our bodies instead of starve them. For the majority of your clients they have been told throughout their entire lives that in order to reach their health goals they have to eat less, remove different food groups, or restrict their eating habits in one way or another. I don't know about you, but I am SO DONE with this being the narrative…because as health coaches you and I both know that true transformation comes from nourishing our bodies inside and out! As a coach, your job is to teach your clients how to understand their bodies on a deeper level and nourish them in the way that they need to be nourished. However, problems arise when these changes go against everything your clients have been told to do ever before. Because this goes against what they've been told is “correct”, we will see them face fears, resistance, and even full on avoidance towards nourishing their bodies. Your job as a coach is to dig deeper with them and guide them to understand why nourishing their bodies is the answer, and how to go about doing so with confidence! In today's episode we walk through the different steps you need to help your client's do exactly this!

Setting goals can feel like an extremely overwhelming task, especially when we have a history of not following through on the goals we set out for ourselves. Coming out of 2020, I think it is safe to say that each and every one of us faced road blocks to accomplishing our goals that we truly could have never expected or planned for. Moving into the new year, we can feel a great deal of pressure that because last year was such a mess, this is the year we have to “make up” for what we feel we lost out on. However, this can lead us down the path of setting goals that scare us more than motivate us, and that we wind up giving up on before we give them a real start. In today's episode of The Health Coaches Classroom, I share with you a new way of looking at our goals, and a method for setting them that will ensure you feel confident and ready to take them on. If you're determined to accomplish big things this year and beyond, this is the episode for you! Join our Community & Start Learning More!

Emotional eating is a phenomenon that nearly every person has experienced at some point in their life. Be it that one time in high school after a bad break up, or if it is something your client turns too often, this is an type of food emotionality that is foreign to few.  When we discuss emotional eating it is important to note that we are not focused on the eating itself nor the foods being consumed, but rather the emotional experience that is happening during it.  In today's episode Emma discusses emotional eating and teaches you the tools and steps needed to address and heal your client's struggle with emotional eating. Episode Overview (The Steps) 1. Understand (as the coach) what emotional eating is about. The feeling not the food. 2. Help your client identify the root emotions and feelings causing their emotional eating. This includes the emotions they feel that lead them to emotionally eat AND the result they are hoping the eating will help them to achieve. 3. Fix the feeling & find alternative healing methods not related to food. 4. Address the difference between emotional eating urges and hunger cues. 5. Promote intentional eating in order to keep the reasons for eating positive always.

Can you be a mind body coach and still talk about weight loss? Can you care about your clients relationship with food while having them track macros? Can you be a body positive coach while helping your clients change their bodies?  YES YOU CAN!  Each of you have your own speciality, passions, and expertise that you use to help your clients. I often hear concerns about ones ability to become a mind-body coach because they fear that their promotion of weight loss, macros, and weightlifting will get in the way.  There is a belief that in order to be a mind-body coach you have to be "all in", but the reality is that being a mind-body coach has less to do with the practices you use, and more to do with how your approach your clients transformation. As a mind body coach you care more about your clients mental & physical wellness, happiness, and transformation than a number on the scale or body fat %. As a mind-body coach your job is not to only promote one style of living, but rather to encourage and guide your clients to find the style of living that works best for THEM!  Because of this, any and ALL coaches can and should be using the mind-body approach with their clients for one reason...it leads to massive transformation! Isn't this the ultimate goal we all want for our clients? I hope so! In this episode we discuss the 4 core ways that ANY coach can incorporate the mind-body approach into their practice starting today. How you can add little pieces to your programs to help increase your clients likelihood of finding massive success while working with you both physically and mentally.  What We Cover: General Wellness & Lifestyle Components Personal Development To Create Lifelong Change The Mind Body Approach to Body Image & Movement Eating/Nutrition & Understanding Your Clients Relationship With It Are you ready to go all in & master the skills you need to become a mind-body coach and confidently incorporate this transformational work into your practice?

In today's episode Emma discusses the important topic of needing to be obsessed with your offer before you can sell it. When selling, it is your job to show your audience how your program is going to help them, and why your program is the best possible thing for the job. But, if you are struggling to believe 150% in your program, aka you aren't absolutely OBSESSED with it...you can't expect your audience to get past struggling either.  If you want to make sales, you have to feel about your program the way you want your audience to feel about it. If you want them to be obsessed with you and your offer, you have to be obsessed with them and how your offer can serve them.

(7:41) (in reflecting on her cancer journey) I am a firm believer that life happens for us, not to us.  This journey changed my outlook on health & wellness…after remission I found naturopathy and new it was the path for me. (11:26) Most people don't actually know how good they can feel because they are so used to how they are feeling…which isn't actually normal. (13:00) Being tired, sluggish, and drained all the time isn't actually normal. (16:30) Often as entrepreneurs we things it's normal to always be in that hustle mode, but that can actually be causing or exacerbating your exhaustion. (17:45) What signs a health coach should be looking out for that can indicate a further health concern might need to be checked out & should refer their clients out to a doctor. (19:55) As a health coach, one of the roles you hold is to be the point person who knows what direction to point your client in. That includes them going to talk with a doctor. (21:00) Stress, Diet, and Lifestyle are the top three things that we want to work on in order to overcome chronic fatigue. (25:05) There are so many resources out there to help you feel your best. Any step you take is better then not taking any. (25:40) Know your own body. A coach or doctor can give you answers, but nobody can be a better advocate for your own health than you.

In today's episode Emma dives in to the struggle that health coaches face when presented with a client who is getting in their own way and struggling to reach the goals they want to be.

This episode shares with you how YOU can dig deeper with your client to help them understand the resistance and overcome it.

Save Your Seat Here: https://www.thealternativenutritionist.com/masterclass What We Covered: What is causing your client to struggle in showing up for themselves. Why we need to stop thinking our clients need more accountability when what they really need is mindset work.  How to identify what their resistance is. How to confidently dive into your clients resistance to find the underlying beliefs and/or fears. How to confidently guide your clients to find the truth of their situation and overcome the resistance they feel. Golden Nuggets You NEED To Hear: (4:40) It's not about you, it's about your client. What your client is dealing with is not that they need more from you, it's that they are experiencing resistance to the tasks in front of them, and THAT is your job to help them dig deeper into. (6:05) It's our job, as a coach to help our clients realize that they are experience resistance and making excuses…and THEN dig deeper with them to figure out what is going on. (6:54) On of the biggest jobs that a coach has is just knowing how to ask the right questions. (8:30) When to start asking questions + how (9:00) When we start hearing surface level excuses, that is our opportunity to start digging deeper. (9:30) One of my favorite questions to ask is, “when you are facing this resistance, what are you feeling?” (11:35) Once we understand the beliefs & fears that lie underneath the resistance, we can help walk our client out of that. (12:57) Now that they understand their beliefs, we help them find the truth. (13:58) When we are working towards finding these truths, we want to make sure that we dial things back and focus on the small goals ahead & achievements that have been made. (16:30) When our clients are struggling to get results it goes back to this idea of resistance that they are having to the actions in front of them. We get to dig deep with them and figure out what is causing this resistance and help walk them out of it.

Golden Nuggets You NEED To Hear: (4:30) Healing to me is really helping someone to have a good life. Aligning someone with the beauty & magnificence that being incarnate really gets to be. (6:22) My work is not about pussy power, it's not just having better organisms, or general stimulation. Pleasure to me is a much bigger umbrella than that. (7:12) Pleasure can show women how much power & wisdom is housed inside of their body, completely accessible to everyone of us. (8:05) I call it soul embodiment. Bringing the soul from the head & heart down into the other centers of the body. I do this through mindful pleasure practices. (9:10) So many women are afraid and conditioned to put ourselves and our bodies needs on to the back burner, but when we start to prioritize what we need, we are able to start functioning on a whole different vibrational level.

(31:35) If you are feeling fears around starting this practice, I want you to start slow. Just the fact that you have listened to this point is huge.
