The CHEF Coaching Program isn't a nutrition course, and it won't ask you to hand out meal plans.

If you've held back from enrolling because you assumed this was outside your scope as a coach, it's worth a second look. This is coaching work.

Seats are filling for the Wellcoaches September 15 cohort.

Wellcoaches monthly open member class will delve into the field of culinary medicine and how, paired with coaching, it can create healthy change for our patients and clients.

Culinary coaching is a novel, evidence-based approach to improve nutrition that combines culinary training, health coaching principles, and telemedicine tools and resources. This session will introduce coaches to the emerging field of culinary medicine, discuss the important role of health coaching in empowering clients to adopt home-cooking habits, present results from a randomized controlled trial evaluating the long-term impact of a culinary coaching intervention on weight, and suggest tools for your practice.

We hope ot see you there!
