Show Highlights & Big Takeaways

1. Listening Is Coaching

Health coaching clients don’t care how much you know until they feel heard. Actively listening, reflecting back what they said, and asking, “Am I understanding this correctly?” builds trust faster than any protocol ever will.

2. Simplify the Science

When reviewing Functional Medicine lab results, avoid overwhelming clients with data or jargon. Instead, follow a simple and effective structure: explain the main finding, share what it means in plain, relatable language, and then outline the actionable steps they can take. This helps coaching clients stay engaged, feel confident, and take ownership of their health journey.

3. Connection Leads to Compliance

Health coach clients are far more likely to follow your recommendations when they feel emotionally supported. Genuine empathy, clear communication, and mutual understanding turn consultations into transformational experiences.
