Health coaching is easy to describe, right? You help clients transform their lives, through a combination of physical nutrition, spiritual nutrition, and mental nutrition. Very succinct!

The only problem is, many people are still unfamiliar with this cutting-edge sector of healthcare. Undoubtedly, many will have more questions, which, as issues go, is a great problem to have!

With less than five minutes to explain though, it’s your job to refine exactly what you do so your audience leaves informed, intrigued, and most importantly, with your business card in hand.

Need some creative direction? Below are some sample verbal bios to help get your creative juices flowing. Feel free to use as-is or as a foundation to create your own!

5 TEMPLATES TO HELP YOU MAKE A GREAT FIRST IMPRESSION WITH YOUR AUDIENCE

1. “I work primarily with female clients to identify the root cause of what conventional medicine refers to as mystery illnesses. Through research and experience, I’ve identified a food and environment connection to these ambiguous symptoms, so I focus on helping my clients making sustainable, achievable dietary and lifestyle changes.”

2. “I coach clients to help them reach their highest potential, be it in their career, health, or relationships. By establishing an open dialogue of communication to include aspirations and ambitions, my client and I build out a visionary action plan so they can achieve their goals within their desired time period.”

3. “I work with clients who have a history of hormonal imbalances and need support implementing the protocols and treatments prescribed by their primary care physician. Health issues of any nature can be tricky to navigate alone – I support my clients in everything from making doctor’s appointments to creating a consistent medication and supplement regimen.”

This one is a favorite since it’s backed by science!

4. “I work with clients with Type 2 diabetes. Research has shown when these individuals work with a Health Coach, their knowledge, self-efficacy, and behavioral change improves¹. Type 2 diabetes can be managed through a combination of medication, diet, and lifestyle changes. In collaboration with their primary care physician, I educate my clients how to incorporate sustainable, healthier choices every day.”

5. “I am a Health Coach who specializes in mental wellness. I lead group sessions to support clients working through trauma and distress. It’s often challenging, but also extremely rewarding when I see my clients turn a corner and exhibit new-found enthusiasm for life.”

CONCLUSION
