    @Kim Foster M.D. : Thank you for making and sharing this video.
    You come across as a happy, positive and helpful person.
    Also, that was nice of you to include a free wellness coaching career guide.
    I have a few questions:
    1) Would it be better to be a health coach, wellness coach or a health and wellness coach? And why?
    2) What is the pro and cons of being a health and wellness coach?
    3) How can a person go about starting their own freelance health and wellness business?
    4) What areas of the health and wellness job pay the most?

    I am an RN, BSN. Would I be able to meet my license current by becoming a nurse health coach? I have a huge passion for health and wellness but can’t seem to find the right outlet in nursing to follow that passion. Health coaching seems and feels like it would really fit me well and allow me to truly help people in their lives, which is what I want to do. Thanks!

    • @KimFosterMD
      @KimFosterMD  2 года назад

      Yes! I have lots of clients and students who are both RNs and health coaches! This is a very natural pivot - I definitely encourage you to go for it!

    • @rosexavier7883
      @rosexavier7883 Год назад

      That is probably because there is no right outlet in nursing since it's such a brutal profession.

    Hi there. I'm exploring the training again out there and am overwhelmed with the variety available. How do I know I get into the right one for me?

    • @KimFosterMD
      @KimFosterMD  2 года назад

      You're right, it can definitely get overwhelming! I did a podcast about this issue recently -- here's the link: ruclips.net/video/Td4iBo9oc5w/видео.html

    How do you overcome a client that doesn't want to commit to the program? Who has goals but every few months is a new excuse?
    How do you get others to take this lucrative career seriously?

    • @KimFosterMD
      @KimFosterMD  2 года назад

      Great question! There's no simple answer to this, and I think this actually warrants its own video -- stay tuned! And thanks so much for the excellent idea.

      Are these 2 different certifications/exams?
      Are you not ‘board certified’ upon completing health and wellness coach certification?
      Thanks in advance

    • @AngelsAlternativeSolutions

      @@maeganrose9591 depending on what program you do you’ll always be certified at the end but to become board certified you have to qualify and sit for a separate exam .

    Would a personal training certification be a good compliment to being a health coach?

    • @KimFosterMD
      @KimFosterMD  2 года назад

      Great question, Kory! It absolutely would be - if your intention is to provide personal training services (or focus on a fitness/exercise angle) as part of your health coaching packages!
