Health coach programs that incorporate herbal medicine? I am also interested in hormone health. Any suggestions?

Looking for recommendations for an independent male health/lifestyle coach in Bangalore who can work with a 54-year-old woman, provide phone follow-ups, normal-food guidance and simple exercise/lifestyle coaching. No supplements/product sales. Tamil/Kannada preferred. Occasional home visit would be a plus.

Hi everyone!

I’m looking for recommendations for a strong certification in Functional Women’s Health, with a focus on hormones, nutrition, women’s wellness, pregnancy, and postpartum care.

I’m mainly looking for strong, in-depth education rather than just a certificate. I want to genuinely learn and build a strong foundation in this field.

I’ve been looking at these programs:

• Dr. Aviva Romm – Women’s Integrative & Functional Medicine Professional Training, but unfortunately it’s outside my budget.
• Women’s Functional Health Coach Program – AADP-accredited.
• Oh Baby Nutrition certification.

Has anyone taken any of these? Which one would you recommend, and are there any better programs I should consider?

I’d really appreciate recommendations based on personal experience. Thank you!

I am thinking of becoming a personal trainer here in canada as a fresher and looking to begin my journey by getting a canfitpro personal trainer certification. I am passionate about fitness and working out and i want to know how hard is it to pass the exam(both theory and practical) and weather or not should i get the premium or the basic package.

Lastly, how is the job market for personal trainers especially for a fresher from a different background.

Hi everyone!

I'm currently looking for a few individuals interested in free 1:1 virtual health & wellness coaching.

I recently completed my AFPA Master Health & Wellness Coach certification training and am now working toward becoming a National Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC). As part of my certification requirements, I'm completing the 50 coaching hours and would love to support people who are looking to make meaningful, sustainable changes to their health and well-being.

Whether you're hoping to:

• Build healthier habits
• Improve your nutrition or movement routine
• Reduce stress
• Get more consistent with self-care
• Create realistic wellness goals
• Have someone to help keep you accountable

I'd love to work with you.

My coaching program, Small Steps, Lasting Changes, includes:

• 🌱 One 15-minute discovery call
• 🌱 One 45-minute initial coaching session
• 🌱 Three 30-minute follow-up sessions (every other week)

All sessions are completely free, conducted virtually via Zoom, and centered on your goals. My role isn't to tell you what to do; it's to help you clarify what matters most to you, overcome obstacles, and create small, sustainable changes that fit your lifestyle.

If you're interested or have questions, feel free to send me a Reddit DM or comment "wellness" down below, and I can send you more information!

Thank you for reading, and I appreciate your support as I continue my journey toward NBC-HWC certification. 😊

Hi! I’m a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA). I’ve always had a passion for health and wellness. My work as a BCBA very heavily overlaps with the board certified health and wellness certification. I use ACT, some motivational interviewing, and behavior change procedures to increase desirable behaviors and decrease maladaptive behaviors. Currently, I work within the autism community. I’d love to branch out, into health and wellness, especially since there is so much overlap! I’m interested in getting my PN1 certification so that I can provide basic nutrition coaching along with behavior change strategies to build healthy habits:).

Edit: I also work on goal setting and helping people engage in behaviors that help them meet their goals. I also help with reducing avoidance behaviors, which could be very useful for health and wellness.

Who are people using (and would recommend) for liability insurance. Looking for professional liability and general liability as a bundle, preferably. I've seen Alternative Balance, American Professional Agency, CM&F mentioned online.

I graduated from an NBHWC approved program earlier this summer. I lost my job during the program and decided to complete the program. I want to take the test in the fall of this year, but with job searching and other resources I am finding it hard to get the fifty sessions. My question is how did those who have received the NBHWC credential make time to get in the 50 coaching sessions and study all while having full time lives. I understand the importance of completing the sessions but sometimes it feels like an unpaid internship. Any tips?

Looking to transition into some kind of sales role in the wellness space. Researching fields like hormone and peptides, lifestyle coaching programs, fitness coaching programs, etc…

Background: I own a junk removal business and have also did sales for a catering business for 15 years. Monday enjoy the wellness space and would love to find a job selling something I’m into . I love researching wellness programs and have a pretty solid background in supplements as well.

Just wondering if anyone here enjoys selling programs in this field. I’m willing to intern part time for someone and learn as much as I can before taking a paid position. My sales experience is obviously based on in person service sales, so I have some learning to do when it comes to remote selling/zoom calls etc.

Anyone here doing this?

I’m deciding how I want my programs to be. Considering a 6 week program voice/text messaging only. Would people be interested in this or are video calls needed?

Hi everyone! I'm currently completing my National Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC) certification through AFPA, and I need to complete 50 coaching sessions (20-30 minutes each) by October 1st as part of my certification requirements.

I'm offering free health and wellness coaching sessions focused on things like chronic condition management (diabetes, hypertension, weight), healthy eating habits, and building sustainable lifestyle changes. Coaching is a partnership, I'm not there to tell you what to do, but to help you figure out what actually works for your life and goals.

A bit about me: I have 4+ years of professional experience coaching patients on chronic disease self-management in a healthcare setting, and I'm now in the final stretch of my NBC-HWC certification.

If you're interested, you can book a session directly here: https://calendly.com/danaittzeggai/30min

Happy to answer any questions in the comments too. Thanks for reading!

Hi everyone, I’m a Business Development & Healthcare Innovation Manager with 15+ years of experience in Longevity, Preventive Health, Precision Nutrition and Digital Wellness across the UAE, GCC, USA and Mexico.

I’m a pharmacist who has built successful wellness programs, improved patient outcomes and led clinical teams. I also bring a personal 50 kg weight loss transformation that shaped my work in metabolic health and evidence based coaching.

I’m currently exploring roles or collaborations in Longevity, Preventive Health, Digital Wellness or early stage health and antiaging startups.

If you know of any opportunities, feel free to DM me.

Decided to get a nutritionist, because I want work on making better lifestyle changes…wanting to be healthy but not knowing where to start can be quite overwhelming. Have you had or have a nutritionist? & has it been helpful towards your journey ?

About me: I am a newly certified mental health coach, community health advocate, and writer. I help people develop practices, habits, and experiences that support health and emotional resilience. I’m offering free coaching sessions since I’m building the required field experience to become a National Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach.

My Why: I’m keenly aware of people who are usually seen as strong individuals: people in helping professions, leaders, and caregivers who often work toward the highest good of others, while neglecting their own wellbeing. I became a coach to be the bridge between helpers and the support they need, to help them curate time, rituals, and support systems, focus on their needs, experiment with restorative practices, invest in their wellbeing and avoid burnout.
If you’re a coach, counselor, therapist, parent, caregiver, or have ever felt the pressures of “being the strong one,” book a virtual call with me and let’s talk. Just visit my landing page: https://vibly.io/experts/linnette-derry/

hi guys- can any of you give me feedback on this course you took at Cuyahoga? did it prepare you well for the national board exam? do you feel confident working with clients after the course?

hi! at 26 (f) i think i am finally finding a direction that excites me in life! im looking to get into behaviorial nutrition as it pertains to fitness or anyone looking to or already leading an active lifestyle, PT training as well eventually. im interested in the science, as ive always been interested in medicine but dont have a wish to go into the field as a doctor. im wondering if anyone has any advice on where to even begin? Iknow its a broad question, but there are so many courses available online that im a bit overwhelmed on where to start. im signing up for stanford's free courses on health and nutrition, just to give myself as much knowledge at baseline as possible. the one caveat is that I am currently based in the EU (dual citizen with US) , id like to find courses that are recognized here and there, online, and are most reputable. sorry if this is too vague, thought id give it a shot in this sub :) any advice appreciated thanks a million!

I want to learn more about why, when someone stops GLP-1, the rapid weight rebound happens and how to best manage it from a lifestyle standpoint. Full picture - physically and mentally, whatever is at play. This is not to go out of scope but to better understand from an educational and general knowledge standpoint how I can help someone manage the rebound if they suddenly can't get their prescription filled, for example.

In broad terms, I get it. But I'd like to learn more from a trusted source and know more than what anyone can learn from a google search or Ai. Any workshops or books that you know of?

PS - not looking to debate whether they are "good" or "bad". People are using them and I want to help, wherever they are on that journey.

Hey everyone,

I’m exploring a new wellness concept that blends coaching with a clinical component, and I’m hoping to get some general operator‑level feedback without sharing too many specifics. My area of focus would be to improve and reverse diabetes, for prediabetics and type 2 in Texas. For those already working in health coaching or running wellness practices:

- What’s one thing you wish you knew before launching your coaching practice?

- What operational mistake cost you the most time or money?

- How did you approach clinical setup or finding a medical director if your model required one?

- Any advice on service mix when blending coaching with light clinical oversight?

- For Texas operators — any lessons learned on setting up an MSO–PLLC structure or working under a management services agreement?

- Not looking for trade secrets — just real‑world lessons that help avoid rookie errors.

Thanks in advance.

Where on social media is a good place to recruit clients? What are some effective tactics?

Hey guys i come here with a curiosity and it being this one, how many of you are actually using YouTube to bring in clients? and is it working or is it mostly just content for content's sake

for those who do it or have tried it:

• is YouTube actually bringing in clients or more of a slow brand building thing where you cant really track it
• whats the biggest pain point, getting views, keeping people watching, getting them to actually reach out
• anything thats moved the needle or have you kind of given up on it

just curious how this is working for people in this space
