Hear from more happy graduates…

I graduated in the Spring 2023 Training Group. I just want to say that the content, support, and creativity of this coaching program was the missing link in what I felt was needed for my coaching practice. This course will challenge you, and it is robust in its content. I have learned so much and feel so much more prepared to take on my business in every way. My mind, body, and spirit now feel like they are synchronous in my coaching outlook. I now know that it is possible to be faithful to God, and be a very successful coach. Thanks Coach Bess and all of our wonderful teachers!!

FAQ’s about this Program:

If I live outside the US can I participate and be certified in this holistic health coach certification online?

Yes! We have already had students from Canada, South America, England and Australia join us in our online community! We welcome people from all countries and backgrounds. Understandably so, the process might take some adjustment, and we’ll have to work around time zones, etc. But we’ll happily do so in order to include everyone.

Will this Health and Wellness Coach Certification Course be all I need to start or grow my Christian Coaching practice?

Yes! It’s truly a business-in-a-box! Everything you’ll need to set up your business, solidify the legal measures, meet clients and take payment, then coach them successfully…it’s all in here! This course also includes all the business building training you need to get started or grow. From figuring out your branding to fine-tuning your message, setting up a simple website, to establishing social media presence, it’s all here.

How are you qualified to create this holistic health coach program?

Coach Bess, the creator of this program, was a busy health coach for 10+ years, creating programs and building her client base.

Along the way, other Christian health coaches began to ask her to help them to duplicate her success as they built their businesses…so she began to write and record a curriculum that they could use. This evolved into licensing the FRESH Start program for them to use in their own businesses!

We basically pulled from several key places to create this curriculum:
1. a clear calling from God to help other coaches
2. formal training Bess has received over the years as a private and corporate health coach
3. field experience and success stories from the hundreds of private, group and corporate clients she has served over the last few years

How does this program differ from other Certification programs out there?

What I hear from the students and certified coaches from our Academy, is that we are openly Christian, and teach them how to combine their faith-walk with their health coaching offerings.

That we are grace-filled and it feels like one “big family” in our Academy.

That we are servant-leaders and training up other servant-leaders.

That we are approachable and real and honest and transparent.

I hear from them that this curriculum gives them EASY, practical steps to apply immediately and that they are able to get moving right away on building their businesses.

We are about the follow-through as much as the initial training and so there is a LOT of ongoing relationship happening behind the scenes, even after completion of the course.

Another big way we’re different is the curriculum is robust and complete – we’re not just about nutritional and health coach training, but also include business building strategies and tutorials.

We cover everything from your brand and message and niche and mission all the way to your legal setup and client process and forms. We even talk time management, office organization and Christian CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.)

Is there a specific Christian philosophy used?

No, we just use the Bible as our basis. But we consider the WHOLE Bible! Not just one or two verses.

We look at many principles from the Word to base our coaching style & nutrition approach on. We love and celebrate all people, from all backgrounds and in all stages of their personal AND professional journey.

We believe in and teach about the Holy Spirit as our Comforter and Guide, just like the Bible says He is!

Are you recommended or endorsed by any other Christian leadership or coaching organization?

Currently, we are not “accredited” with any other organization. I believe this is something we may grow into down the road, but it is not necessary for any legal requirements and quite an expensive and involved process. So we have remained independent for now.

We feel that our successful graduates speak to the effectiveness of our course and support far more than an outside organization could!

Why is your holistic health coach certification online course lower in cost than many of the others?

Our rate is lower than many of the other Health and Wellness Certification Courses because we want to see YOU succeed, build an effective business to profit, and not be in loads of debt to do it!

The price of our course doesn’t reflect on the quality within it. It is a deep dive into godly business building, effective online marketing, client care, communication and listening skills for coaching, Christian Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques, and nutritional and habit change help to give your clients. (Just to list a few things!) 😉
