Careers as a Wellness Coach

Now a trillion-dollar industry, wellness is related to emotions and environment, finances
and occupation, mind and body, social and spiritual, all of which come together to
create an overall picture of well-being, or sometimes lack thereof.

Wellness coaches work with individuals to bring all of these factors into harmony,
helping their clients create better lives from the inside out. Wellness involves turning
fragmented pieces into a happy whole.

In particular, wellness coaches can focus on values, environments, skills, practices and
more that help their clients find the balance and fulfillment they’re seeking. Through
their work with others, wellness coaches promote optimal health, motivate their clients
to take charge of their health and wellness, work with medical and psychiatric
professions to help people heal, combine coaching with weight-loss, stress-
management or other goal-seeking programs, and integrate fitness and nutrition into
their overall wellness coaching.

In a nutshell, wellness coaches work to help their clients feel better, look better, think
better, move better, act and react better, and do better. Wellness truly is all about a
better quality of life, which is why wellness coaching offers a terrific career opportunity
for those passionate about healthy living.

Wellness coaches bring together the best of life coaching, fitness coaching, green living,
sound nutrition, exercise and stress management to help others. They can do so in a
home or office-based practice, work with clients one-on-one or in small groups, offer
wellness coaching workshops or programs through health clubs, gyms and spas, or
provide seminars in person or online on various wellness-related topics.

Other career opportunities for wellness coaches include TV and radio shows and
appearances, books and ebooks, operating a wellness center and even becoming a celebrity wellness coach. Wellness coaching is a versatile career that allows for a lot of
flexibility, creativity and personalization; you can create your wellness coaching
business from the beach, if you choose.

Most wellness coaching certifications are valid for a certain time and some entail
prerequisites, so it’s important to do some research ahead of time to find the right
certification program.

certification to expand your career opportunities, you can visit the Spencer Institute’s

Careers as a Life Strategies Coach

Life and strategy are two big words. Two words and two concepts that many people
struggle with.
And that’s where a life strategies coach comes in.
A certified life strategies coach can help people tackle relationship issues, personal
growth, future planning and more to create a holistic, healthy and happy picture. Life
strategies coaches help their clients ask and answer both the big and small questions in
their lives with greater ease.
Helping clients be more productive and more adept at handling life challenges, life
strategies coaches can enjoy flexible scheduling and hours by creating their own
practice, either online or in an office, spa, home or other location.
In addition, a life strategies coach can work as part of a coaching and wellness team,
offer seminars and classes, create online podcasts and newsletters, write ebooks on the
latest and hottest topics, offer individual or group coaching, and more, all while helping
people reach their goals and live the lives they’ve only dreamed of previously. It’s all
about learning, implementing and sharing these simple but profound formulas for
greater success.
Likewise, as a life strategies coach, you can specialize in particular issues (career
happiness or successful relationships, for example) or focus on broader strokes,
depending on your areas of interest.
A life strategies coaching certification will train you to become a better listener, to evoke
excellence in others, to make grounded, behavior-based assessments, to move people
into effective action, to identify motivational strategies that work quickly, to gracefully
move a client into personal freedom and better choices, and more. “Learning life coaching at the Spencer Institute has been a great way for me to increase
my business base. I really liked that I could work full time while learning life coaching on
my own time schedule,” said life coach Jeanne Asma of Poughkeepsie, N.Y. “Not only
do I now have coaching clients, but I also attract more psychotherapy clients who
choose me because I can do coaching in addition to psychotherapy.”

Careers as a Corporate Wellness Coach

More than 50 percent of U.S. companies now operate corporate wellness programs,
serving to create better places to work while also reporting significant savings. In fact,
corporate wellness programs can save companies more than $10 for every dollar spent,
which is a noteworthy as many businesses continue to look for ways to reduce
expenses.

As more and more companies recognize the importance of wellness in the workplace,
the demand for certified corporate wellness coaches continues to grow. Certified
corporate wellness coaches can work for one company or for a variety of companies,
helping to create and implement programs, train others and develop a corporate culture
of wellness.

Within a business, a corporate wellness coach might develop or manage a wellness
program, work with human resources or other related departments, help individuals
prepare and evaluate their health and wellness goals, create various contests and
incentives, identify the needs of employers and employees, evaluate wellness
programs, and promote wellness to reduce costs and improve morale.

Specific jobs in this field can include:

• Corporate wellness manager
• Fitness manager
• Community health promoter
• Corporate health fair coordinator
• Consultant or coach
• Web-based entrepreneur
• Writer
• Trainer • Activity director for a corporation
• And more
Your work as a corporate wellness coach will benefit both companies and individuals,
which is pretty rewarding at the end of the day.

Careers as a Lifestyle Fitness Coach

If you have a passion for life coaching as well as a passion for fitness, a career as a
lifestyle fitness coach marries the two in an ideal match.

The next revolution in the fitness industry, lifestyle fitness coaching is a holistic career
choice that combines counseling and health, which together can help clients achieve
their overall wellness goals. Lifestyle coaches are part counselor, part coach, part
trainer and 100 percent motivator.

Lifestyle fitness coaches work to motivate clients and make them accountable for a
healthy lifestyle. Lifestyle fitness coaches are responsible for uncovering clients’
motivational strategies, building rapport, creating meaningful dialogue, and using
questionnaires to determine likes and dislikes as well as immediate, intermediate and
long-term goals.

A lifestyle fitness coach can work successfully one-on-one with clients or in small
groups. This career option can work great for individuals who prefer to run an online
business or a flexible home-based business while lifestyle fitness coaches can also
meet with clients in gyms and spas, coach local athletes and sports teams, and serve
as part a team at a health or wellness centers.

Further, certified lifestyle fitness coaches can be personal trainers who provide value-
added life coaching during training sessions, professionals who provide online or phone
coaching, authors, speakers and more. Lifestyle fitness coaching can be a natural and
ideal addition to many wellness-focused career paths.

As the fitness and self-help industries both continue to grow, so will the demand for
trained lifestyle fitness coaches who are interested in helping others surmount their
various challenges, understand
