So what exactly is a health coach? Hi guys and welcome to my channel. My name is Taylor and in today's video, I'm going to be talking all about health coaching. I'll be explaining exactly what health coaching is and how you can get certified. So what exactly is a health coach? A health coach is somebody that guides their clients to their goals, to help them achieve their goals, set their goals, and also just guide them to overall better health. I was certified through IAN and the reason I mentioned that IAN is because IAN's approach is a lot different than other schools. The difference is that they have an integrative approach, meaning that they look at the person's whole health instead of just nutrition or exercise. They teach you all about primary food, which is basically career, spirituality, relationships, and physical exercise. I think we can all agree that those four main components have a huge impact on our health and can really make our break our health no matter if we're eating healthy or for exercising, relationships, career, spirituality are very important too. We also learn a lot about nutrition, which to them is called secondary food. So being a holistic health coach, you will really be able to connect deeper with your clients and really help them achieve all their health related goals and their health will definitely get better. Also, as a holistic health coach, you can specialize in a specific niche. For me, I specialize in acne and energy healing, but for you, you might specialize in weight loss or eating disorders or any other type of niche that you're interested in. What's so great about IAN is that they walk you through absolutely everything. When it comes to building your business, making a website, doing all those technical things, they'll help you through that as well. So if you have no idea about online business or how to make a website or anything about that, they will seriously take you by the hand and help you through it all. It really is a community and you can really feel the family energy with an IAN because they really care about you and they really want you to reach all your goals and become successful as a health coach. In my earlier videos, I have definitely mentioned that IAN has changed my life and I'm being completely honest. It really has. My life has changed so much ever since I graduated through IAN and throughout the whole program. I've honestly learned so much about myself and my health and this has really created a ripple effect into my family and my friends. And for that, I'm so grateful. And if you're thinking, Taylor, I don't think I am fit to be a health coach or I don't even think I wanna be a health coach and that's totally fine. You don't have to wanna be a health coach to take this program. You can be super successful without becoming a health coach once you graduate. Instead, you can create a course. You can create an e-book, hosting live events or masterminds, growing your personal brand or even creating a physical product. Graduating from IAN seriously presents you with so many opportunities like traveling and you can also be working like I am. I'm recording this video and I'm in this cute tiny home and I'm in Malavue and I'm so happy I'm here and you could be doing this too. But also, if you decide that you don't really care to be self-employed and you'd rather just get a job somewhere, you can easily get hired at a hospital, at a health clinic, basically anywhere that might need a health coach and we all know that hospitals definitely need health coaches. I also wanted to mention a few people that have graduated from IAN that have really made a huge impact on my life and I'm sure that they have made an impact on yours. And these are just a few of the people that have graduated from IAN and became super successful because there have been a lot of successful people that have came from IAN. The first one I want to mention is Melissa Wood. I'm sure you guys know her. I know a lot of people that do her workouts and have bought in her plans. She is such an inspiration and she has really created abundance in her life and she is super successful. The next one is Gabby Bernstein. I'm sure you guys know her as well. She is a very popular author. She's written a few different books and they're all absolutely amazing. I remember when I first started learning about spirituality. She is one of the first women that I heard about in that spiritual space and I know that she has made a huge impact on so many lives. The next one is Sahara Rose. She is an author. She also has a great podcast and she's also an Ayurvedic expert and she is actually one of the teachers in IAN along with Gabby Bernstein and she is an expert in Ayurveda and it was really cool to learn from her and see that she has became super successful from graduating from IAN.
