Hi! It's nice to meet you.
I started Incredible Journey Health & Wellness due to my passion for holistic health and the joy of working in harmony with others to create healthier, happier communities. After more than forty years of navigating my own path, I wanted to establish a company that would motivate and assist others on their journeys. I believe what sets me apart as a trusted partner is the blend of my dedication to learning, my extensive professional experience in fields including nonprofit, higher education, real estate and holistic veterinary medicine, as well as my own unique personal journey.
I have an associate of applied science degree in Business, Government & Technical Communications, a bachelor’s degree in Recreation, Parks and Tourism Administration, a master’s degree in Sports Management and a law degree. Additionally, I have a Health & Wellness Coaching certification from an NBHWC approved training program as well as a certification in Clinical Pet Nutrition.
For more than a decade, I have put my knowledge to use as a digital communications professional and adjunct professor. These experiences have equipped me with the essential skills needed to effectively collaborate with clients – both individuals and companies. However, there is so much more to an individual than what a resume can convey.
I am a genuinely kind person who loves all creatures. Others describe me as being a ray of light who makes people feel welcomed and appreciated. I am probably funnier than I think, though I know I have a great sense of humor. I love entertaining, good food, baking, reading, gardening, sitting with my healing crystals under the full moon, and above all, I love my animals. If not for my dog’s kidney disease diagnosis more than nine years ago, I may not have turbocharged my own holistic health journey leading me to where I am today. His Incredible Journey and what he taught me along the way is one for the books and I will share more soon!
I hope to have the opportunity to walk alongside you on your incredible journey!
FAQs
What is Health & Wellness Coaching?
Health and wellness coaching is a growing industry focused on helping individuals achieve their health and wellness goals through evidence-based positive behavior change methods. It is designed to help people explore their own insights, strengths and resources to guide them in a forward moving direction towards their vision of a healthy life.
What Takes Place During a Coaching Session?
In a coaching session, a coach and the client explore various topics together, including the path to making desired changes concerning the client’s overall health and wellness. This is done by talking in a supportive and judgement-free session, either on the phone or video conference. The evidence-based health and wellness coaching approach used utilizes the person’s own strengths and values empowering them to move toward their vision of health and wellness.
Is Coaching Like Counseling or Therapy?
No. Health & wellness coaching is not counseling or therapy. Whereas counseling and therapy traditionally focus on the past, coaching focuses on the present and future. Coaching helps people set and achieve the SMART goals related to their health & wellness which they choose to set for themselves. The coach is your accountability partner on the journey.
It’s important to note that in coaching, the coach will not prescribe medical treatment, provide medical care, or otherwise diagnose, treat or cure any physical or mental disease/condition. A coach is a mentor and accountability partner. A coach does not act in the capacity of or replace the need for a doctor or psychologist, and clients should always discuss any lifestyle changes with a licensed medical professional.
How Long Does Coaching Last?
A typical coaching relationship will last anywhere from one to six months, depending on the person’s needs and goals. We offer coaching packages that range from 1-4 months long.
The first coaching session with each person is called a Discovery session and lasts approximately 45 minutes. Each additional session is called a Step and lasts approximately 25 minutes.
We intentionally designed our coaching sessions to be brief because most people are already limited on time to begin with. By establishing 25 minute sessions, people can more easily work them into their busy schedules and not feel overwhelmed by adding another commitment to the calendar.
How Much Does Coaching Cost?
The cost of health & wellness coaching will depend on the package selected. People can expect to invest as little as $180 for a one month Kickstart Journey package or up to $440 for an Extended Journey package. Prices are subject to change and are provided to each client in a coaching agreement before any sessions begin.
What is Health & Wellness Creative Content?
It is any written or graphically designed communication that is intended to engage and/or inform readers on topics related to health and wellness. This can include anything from a well-researched blog article to a social media post to an informative client information document.
What Types of Content Do You Create?
We work with health & wellness providers and brands to create the following communications:
- Blog Articles
- eNewsletters
- Social media content
- Patient information documents
- Promotional materials such as brochures and postcards
- Press releases
- Infographics
We can create many other items as well depending on the specific needs of each client.
How Does High Quality Content Contribute to Communities?
Well-researched and well-written content that engages and educates people on health and wellness topics contributes to the vibrancy of a community by promoting healthier lifestyles. When holistic health & wellness is prioritized, positive change takes place, one person at a time, and radiates to everyone around them, creating a beneficial domino effect.
How Much Does it Cost to Work With You?
Each project is uniquely tailored to the individual needs and budget for the business. We can create single pieces of content for a flat fee as needed or establish a comprehensive communications strategy delivering multiple pieces of content over a longer period of time.
