00:06

In this video, I'm going to share with you whether you can make money as health coach

00:11

and also how you can do it if you decide to pursue this route.

00:18

00:30

So today I want to talk about health coaching. Most frequently asked question I get is,

00:35

can I really make money as a health coach? Are you playing me? Well, one thing that I

00:43

want to say before I really answer this question is to share a mistake that can be really helpful to

00:51

avoid, which is comparing yourself to other people while still figuring out whether you can actually

00:59

have a career in health coaching. Often, it's one of the other. So for example,

01:05

you're looking at really successful health coaches and you're seeing them killing it. You're seeing them

01:11

on Instagram, on YouTube. You're seeing their books out, is bestselling books, and you're thinking

01:20

they're crushing it. I would never be as good as them. Or you're on the complete opposite of the

01:26

scale. And you're thinking, I am not that good. I've seen some people fail. I've seen a lot of people

01:33

struggle. And I don't want a career in a life of struggle. I want to help people in their health.

01:40

I want them to be happy, but I also need to get paid in order to support my family and make it worth

01:47

my time as well. And I totally get it. But here's the thing. It's going to be really difficult

01:52

for you to figure out whether this is the right career for you and whether you can make money doing it.

01:57

If you're really focused on other people, what you really need to do is focus on yourself and on

02:03

whether you have the drive that you need to make money out of this career. Because that's what it's

02:10

really about. It's whether you have the drive and the skills and the ability to make it work.

02:17

It's not that health coaching is in effect hard. It's just whether it's the right fit for you.

02:23

So I'm going to share with you a few things that will help you figure out whether you can personally

02:27

kill it in this industry. The first thing to think about is there are two ways of making money

02:33

from being a health coach. You can either get hired by a company to work as a health coach or you can

02:39

start your own business. Different people do better in different situations, but that's not to say

02:46

that if you are scared of running a business, you can't do it. You definitely can and I'll talk

02:51

about that part a little bit later. But let's first talk about getting hired as a health coach.

02:56

Did you know that there are multiple ways that you can actually get hired as a health coach

03:02

first, you need a certification. If you haven't gotten certified and you're thinking about

03:07

where to get certified, I do have a separate video on how to know where to get certified. If you

03:13

want to watch that video click on the link above. But once you're certified, you can actually

03:17

just have a look on your search websites and type in health coach and see what local jobs are

03:22

available in your area. Sometimes they are practices like health coaching practices that are

03:28

looking for health coaches to join the team. Other times you can actually join a doctors office

03:35

and this is usually helpful if there's an integrative doctor who understands how someone's health

03:40

is also connected to the way they eat and the way they live and all of doctors don't have

03:45

time or the resources to advise someone on that. So what they do is they sometimes hire health coaches

03:50

to actually work in their practice to better help their clients achieve the results that they need

03:56

to achieve to be healthy. You can also work for a magazine as an health editor. You can also work as

04:02

a health coach at a fitness studio or at a gym or at a yoga studio. Point is that there are

04:10

variety of options. Now do you have a free course on how to become a certified health coach?

04:15

So if you want to check out that course, it's totally free. It's the free training,

04:19

five emails that help you get clean weather health coaching is right for you and how to get

04:23

paid as a health coach. Simply click on the link in the description box below because I go into

04:28

more depth into the different ways you can get hired there. The next way you can get hired is by

04:34

running your own business. Now you've probably already come across this and you're thinking,

04:38

I don't know anything about business. I just want to be a health coach and I totally totally

04:43

get it. When I first started my business and coaching people, I was so nervous because I

04:50

just thought how am I going to create a program, how am I going to sell a program? How do I get

04:57

clients? Am I supposed to have an accountant? How am I going to do my company taxes? I was just so

05:05

overwhelmed and then I quickly realized that there was no need for me to be overwhelmed because

05:12

everyone that starts in business starts with knowing absolutely nothing and there's a misconception

05:17

that if you went to business school that you have a serious advantage but the reality is

05:23

they had tons of people who've gone to business school and failed and the tons of people who have

05:27

not gone to business school and actually been more successful in business than business graduates. So

05:33

the important thing isn't whether you know enough to go into business. In fact, I have a separate

05:38

video on how to build a business from scratch. If you watch that video, I hope that we'll give you

05:44

confidence that this is definitely something you can do. Creating a business is beneficial and that

05:50

it helps you to reach as many people as possible and you get to choose how you want to work with

05:55

people so you can work with people one-on-one, you can work with people in groups, you can work

05:59

people online, you can work with people face-to-face, you can do online courses, you can do training

06:04

programs, there's so many different ways you can do it, you can also create health products. Now in

06:11

terms of how much money you can make, it really varies and it varies according to a variety of things.

06:19

One, it varies on whether you're hired over the year on a business. So if you're hired, it just

06:24

depends on what area you live in and it depends on how many hours you're working and what job you're

06:29

applying for. But some people can earn from 20,000 pounds to maybe 60,000 pounds per year on a job

06:37

that they've been hired to do. If you are running your business, you can make nothing and you can also

06:43

make literally six or seven figures every single year and whether you make zero or six or seven

06:51

figures depends on whether you figure out how to grow a profitable business and that's all that

06:56

it is, it's do you figure it out. Now one thing that I always believe in is a growth mindset. This is

07:02

a term coined by a Carol Dweck, which he basically says that there's a difference between someone

07:07

with a growth mindset and a fixed mindset. Some of the growth mindset sees that whatever problems

07:13

are they're facing, whatever challenges they have that they can learn and they can figure it out,

07:18

with every bit of practice, every attempt they learn more and they get better and they eventually

07:23

figure it out. And that's what really really helps you when you're creating your business,

07:28

this is a mindset that you can grow and you can figure things out because you really can.

07:34

It's not rocket science and even if it were rocket science, it's still figure out of all, right?

07:39

But if you have a fixed mindset, which is I can't do this and I can't learn, well,

07:45

excuse my language but no shit, of course you're not going to learn. If you're saying,

07:48

I can't do this and I can't learn how to do it. So it's all about your mindset. I'll

07:53

hear a few other things that really help to contribute to your success, whether you go to

07:58

get hired or whether you start their own business. First thing is having a curiosity to learn.

08:03

So being curious about how to grow your health, coaching business or being curious about how to get

08:09

hired and what skills you need in order to get hired for a job and your local area just be really

08:14

curious about learning that and you will get hired where you will have a profitable business.

08:19

The second thing is to also use branding. Branding is one of those things that can really

08:24

really help you because it can help you attract your dream clients. If you position yourself as an

08:30

expert in the area that you want your clients to call you for and the area that you think your

08:36

clients need, then you'll start to attract clients. And once you have clients coming through your

08:41

door and once they're paying for your services, then you're ready in a good position. It might

08:47

be the only chance that it would be how can I grow the business. But that is a good problem to

08:52

have rather than having no clients at all. So definitely definitely definitely work on your branding

08:57

because that's the first thing that really helps you get the clients that you need. And if you're

09:02

getting hired, the way that you brand yourself can help you get the job. So branding is essential.

09:06

And last but not least, it's also being resilient. The more resilient you are, the more successful

09:12

you be in the industry. This role isn't for people who want things ahead of them. This isn't

09:19

for someone who wants a kind of nine to five job and to clock in clock out. Not because it's a

09:25

job that requires you to work a long, long hours. But what I am trying to say is that it's the type of

09:30

job that you should only really pursue if you're passionate about it. If you're passionate about it,

09:36

you will have the drive to figure it out. And if you figure it out, it's one of the most

09:41

rewarding and fulfilling things you can do with your career, just ever. Anyways, those are my
