Why Health Coaches Are Behavior Change Ninjas
Ойын-сауық
Most health plans, whether they’re about losing weight, exercising more, or quitting bad habits, aren’t designed to last. This is because they’re based on an incorrect assumption that all you need is willpower and motivation. In truth, we all need a support system to help guide us toward sustainable behavior and lifestyle change. And the reality is that the majority of healthcare actually happens outside of the doctor’s office.
In this mini-episode, Dr. Hyman speaks with Dr. Rangan Chatterjee and Chris Kresser about why behavior change recommendations from healthcare providers are largely ineffective, and why having the support of a health coach can make all the difference in achieving your health goals.
Dr. Rangan Chatterjee is regarded as one of the most influential medical doctors in the UK and hosts the most listened to health podcast in the UK and Europe, ‘Feel Better, Live More’. His first three books have all been #1 Sunday Times Bestsellers and his latest, Feel Better in 5, shows people how to transform their health in just 5 minutes. It has been a smash hit in the UK, selling almost 100,000 copies in just 7 months, and has just been published in the United States. Professor BJ Fogg, the world’s leading expert in human behavior, calls this book, "one of the best habit change programs he has seen-deceptively simple but remarkably effective.” Dr. Chatterjee regularly appears on BBC News and Television and has been featured in numerous international publications including The New York Times, Forbes, The Guardian and Vogue, and his TED talk, How To Make Disease Disappear, has been viewed almost 3 million times.
Chris Kresser M.S., L.Ac is the co-director of the California Center for Functional Medicine, founder of Kresser Institute, and the New York Times bestselling author of The Paleo Cure and Unconventional Medicine. He is one of the most respected clinicians and educators in the fields of Functional Medicine and ancestral health and has trained over 1,500 clinicians and health coaches in his unique approach. His health coaching program, called ADAPT, is the one I recommend for my staff at Cleveland Clinic and he’s the guy I trust with my own health.

Excited to bring Functional Medicine Health Coaching to the Fibromyalgia community! Go health coaches!
I did not go through being a functional medicine health coach.... I believe what you guys are doing
this was great, I am wanting to become a health coach and going to university next year to study healtcare and health science.
I think most often it is the how that people do not have most people have the why and it can be painful for them not to even be recognized as having the why when than fail and then put through exercises of developing more whys when the whys they have which are plenty enough go unacknowledged and they are not given credit for having whys only because they fail to change when the how to actually make the changes happen is why they fail
As a health coach, I love this (but then I would).
More on what makes a good/great health coach.
For example how do I actually wake up in the morning and do something different than what I normally do and have experience doing and know how to do
Ok, I've lost a bunch of lbs on keto and am certified in seated and standing movement practices (Nia, Ageless Grace). How do I become a health coach??? Please share our reputable resources. TIA :)
Why is there absolutely no mention of the registered dietitian (RD) in this discussion? A patient with type 2 diabetes was mentioned and the RD did not come up once. Registered dietitians are in fact trained to help such a person change behavior and manage diet and they should be top of mind when it comes to nutrition. They have specialized training to address various health conditions, and some are even certified diabetes educators.

Because their advice causes those conditions. Outcome of their training, regulated by snickers, cheerios, and big pharma.

Dieticians attend government-regulated universities and colleges that must teach and adhere to government-regulated guidelines. For example, the USDA MyPlate recommends consuming dairy and meat, both of which have been proven to have negative effects on one's overall health. School donations received by the processed food world, big pharma, the dairy industry, etc., have huge influences on the curriculums taught. Health and nutrition coaches are able to be unbiased and are not held to the same bias with outside influence.
