Testimonials

I can't express enough how much I loved this course. Initially, I did not think that a self-paced class would be so valuable. But I would recommend this class to anyone in health and wellness sectors, from doctors to coaches to even front office staff. Michelle was a great instructor, and though it was only through online communication, her sincerity and willingness to educate and inform came through.

I loved learning about how wellness coaching is really ALL coaching. Wellness coaching and the content described in this course, is something I have been working on with all of my clients even if they are not coming to coaching specifically for wellness. Coaching is being well.
