Don't let doubts and fears keep you from living your dream of being a skilled, successful and self-assured health coach.
When you started your health coach training I bet you were so excited to formalize what you’d been doing for years sharing your health knowledge and tips with your friends and family. Finally, you could make this a career start getting paid to share your passion for health and wellness with others.
And then you learn that as a coach, you’re not actually the health expert. You're not supposed to tell your clients what to eat, how to be healthier or give advice and recommendations.
If you can’t do this, what the heck do you do? Confusion sets in.
You have a few tools and resources from your course but you’re not sure how to put it all together and actually help your clients get results.
You know you need to start marketing yourself and telling people you’re a health coach, but thinking about posting on social media or sending emails to your contacts, makes you feel like a fraud and an imposter.
I don’t know what I’m doing.
I’m scared I can’t help people.
I’m not ready yet.
So you hold back. You wait. You don’t send those emails. You don’t post on social media. You don’t get clients.
You search for more training. Do more research. Read more books.
You try practicing with friends and family. Get a few non-paying clients to try and gain some experience.
But time goes by and you still don’t feel ready.
Will you let this training go to waste?
Will you give up on your dream of becoming a successful and effective health coach?
I'm here to tell you: There's is hope!
You are not alone. You can be a skilled and confident health coach
What if you could let go of the pressure to be the expert, fix your clients and solve all their health problems?
What if you looked forward to every coaching session because you knew exactly what to do, what to say and how to coach.
What if you got practice, testimonials and confidence without having to give away your time and expertise for free?
What if you couldn’t wait to tell the world you’re a health coach, get those first clients and build a successful coaching biz?
All of this is absolutely possible! I've mapped out a step-by-step coaching process and structure that shows you finally how to coach your clients with confidence and clarity!
Introducing...
HCE isn’t just more coaching theories, concepts and ideas. It’s a practical, hands-on, 9-week, online course and skills lab that will take you from confused and unskilled to clear, competent & confident.
I'll walk you step-by-step through the entire process from your first free discovery call to your final coaching session and everything in between.
√ You’ll learn how to deliver highly converting discovery sessions with a coach approach that feels welcoming, productive and non-salesy.
√ You'll learn how to onboard your clients and set a solid foundation to the coaching relationship that establishes trust and rapport.
√ You'll discover the mindset necessary to let go of being the expert and become a trusted wellness ally for your clients.
√ You’ll refresh and hone your core coaching skills so you’ll feel competent and equipped to jump into any coaching scenario.
√ You’ll learn a proven goal-setting and action planning process to inspire and motivate your clients toward their ideal outcomes.
√ You'll get clarity on proven coaching techniques to guide your clients through an effective behavioural change process.
√ You’ll get a proven framework for your coaching program no matter what your niche or target market.
√ You’ll get scripts and templates for exactly what to say, ask and do during your foundation, ongoing and final sessions.
And that's not all...
The best part is, You're going to get a ton of practical experience too!
You're going to learn a ton of great info AND you'll get to listen to 13 coaching sessions with two of my personal clients.
Then you'll get to practice coaching each week and receive feedback from me and your fellow coaches.
In-between our calls you'll have an opportunity to gain more experience by practicing your skills with your coaching buddy.
You'll also receive testimonials from your coaching buddies to bring credibility, experience and social proof.
In 9 weeks you'll gain experience and confidence to get your first clients or be a better coach to your current clients!
If you are:
→ Doubting your ability to coach clients because the whole process seems really unclear
→ Scared to launch your coaching biz because you feel like an imposter and a fraud
→ Focussed on more training or practice clients as a distraction from launching
→ Worried that clients will think it's a waste of time and money working with you
→ Confused about how to provide value if you can't give advice or tell people what do
→ Afraid that you'll have to give up this dream and will end up being a failure
then Health Coaching Essentials is right for you!

"Michelle's program revolutionized my coaching!"
I just had another brilliant session with a client and I've no doubt it is because I followed your guidance and session plan, used the questions you suggested for each section and implemented the pre-session check-in with the client.
I used to feel nervous and anxious about coaching, and worry about 'filling' the time. Now I genuinely enjoy it and feel like my clients are making so much more tangible progress than they ever were before.
Without a doubt the best investment I have made in my business to date."
~ Bex Brame, Intuitive Nutrition Health Coach
"My confidence has gone through the roof!"
"I’m so happy I enrolled and completed Michelle’s course. My confidence has gone through the roof.
I no longer worry and stress about what I’m going to discuss with a client before a session because what ever the topic is, I know I can handle it. Thank you Michelle."
~ Maria Kazantzis, Integrative Nutrition Health Coach

"I feel more equipped to step into my role as coach."
I signed up for Michelle's HCE course over a year after earning my coaching certification and six months after receiving my board certification. I wanted to continue to hone in on my coaching skills and receive feedback in an intimate group setting. Michelle brought her professional expertise to the course, and that, along with her supportive, positive, and warm personality, really made each session truly enjoyable. After completing HCE, I feel more equipped to step into my role as a coach. Michelle is an excellent mentor and guide - 5 stars all the way!
~ Rachel Hagstrom, NBC-HWC
"My clients are getting a much better experience."
"Before taking Health Coaching Essentials, I didn't have a clear structure for my coaching calls, and I often felt all over the place and unsure of what the process should look like. Since taking the course, I now feel confident about how to set up my sessions. I know what to focus on during different parts of the call, and I have a much better grasp on how much time to spend on things like accountability, coaching, and putting together a plan. I honestly feel like my current clients are getting a much better coaching experience now that I've taken this course."
~ Rebecca Pruitt, NBC-HWC
A year after I promised myself I would be the best coach I could be and receiving mentorship, I got a gig at the world's largest health coaching school, IIN.
For ten years I've been coaching students in IIN's health coach training program. I've coached over 2500 students and I hear 95% of them say they're not ready to coach because they don't know enough and aren't confident in their skills.
I felt like this too, and for the first two years of my coaching career, I faked it big time. I was exhausted, confused, inexperienced and felt like I was wasting my clients' time and money.
To overcome my lack of confidence I did more health coach trainings and certifications.
In the end, I cobbled together bits and pieces of these courses into my own coaching structure and process, that I believe are based on best practices in the field.
After watching so many new health coaches struggle, I'm thrilled to finally bring this offering to you. No more trying to figure all of this out on your own like I did.
Inside Health Coaching Essentials, over 9 weeks you'll receive the tools, strategies and processes along with practice to hone your skills, build your competencies and boost your confidence so you can become a successful and effective health coach.
Are you ready take the next step in your dream of having a fulfilling career and making a difference as a health coach?
