Can I do this program while Menu

working a full time job or being a

full time parent?
YES! Absolutely. What you will learn in this course is
habits that help you create a more spacious lifestyle and
professionally inspire others to do the same which means
less stress, more fun. If you only want to work part time,
then that’s your choice and it is possible to build a wildly
successful business while working part-time. We are
living proof!

How do I know if Health Coaching

is right for me?
Health coaching is one of the most lucrative, fulfilling
careers on the planet. Who doesn’t want to get paid for
your own personal growth and making a big difference in
people’s lives? Some students wonder if they will actually
be able to make a living doing it. Others wonder if they
will be taken seriously if they aren’t a doctor or registered
dietitian. When we launched careers as health coaches,
we worried about that too. It turns out that many of our
grads are now earning as much as or more than a doctor
working a lot less hours. Want to be inspired? Read their
stories here.

I’m already a coach, will this be

repetitive?
Not at all. This is a unique training that’s rapidly
redefining the health coaching industry. This work is
based on cutting edge brain science, psychology and
Stacey and Carey’s experiences with thousands of clients.
Menu
Plus, every session is exciting and fun. This is a great way
to spice up your own coaching practice.

Do I have access to Carey &

Stacey?
YES! You will have monthly access to ‘Coaching Demo
Lounge’ with our founders. You will be able to ask Stacey
and Carey questions, get advanced coaching tips, and
hear how they intuitively coach others.

Are there any opportunities to

meet with fellow students?
Yes! Upon graduation of the BHC program you will be
gifted with a ticket to one of our 3-day live event
experiences! These immersion events take place twice
per year in the U.S. You will have the opportunity to learn
advanced coaching skills, grow your business and
collaborate with hundreds of other coaches from all over
the world.

Does this training include

any mentorship?
Yes, you will have several coaching calls with a HCI
Success Coach during your training. Our Success
Coaches are master Health Coaches who have all created
their own thriving Health Coach businesses so they know
exactly what our students are going through, where they
are headed and what it takes to succeed in the real
world. They offer support in times of doubt, help our
students overcome obstacles and are even there to
Menu
celebrate their successes. Our Success Coaches walk the
talk and show our students the way forward. They’re
awesome!

Are there regulations to practice

Health Coaching? Do I need a
license?
Health coaches trained by the Health Coach Institute
achieve “habit change” via coaching and do not diagnose
or treat disease, prescribe medication, or perform the
functions of regulated clinical occupations. This makes
graduates unlikely to encounter legal restrictions for their
work as Health Coaches
We work with top legal advisors in this field including
Emord & Associates who clarified this question in a 2017
legal memo. Here is a brief quote –

“Health Coaches do not require a license to

practice so long as they do not engage in state
regulated activities, such as the practice of
medicine, chiropractic or dietetics. No state has
established a license for health coaching as of
the date of this correspondence, and likely will
not in the future because health coaches do
not pose a threat to the public health, which
makes regulation unnecessary, and there has
been a recent trend towards eliminating
needless, restrictive regulation.”

With their focus on habit change, the work of Health

Coaches is highly complementary to clinical professions.
Together with our faculty and advisors, including
prominent medical doctors and legal experts, we are
strongly committed to growing the field of Health
Menu
Coaching as an integral part of the solution to the global
health crisis without unnecessary or anti-competitive
restrictions.
