Functional and “holistic” coaching is more popular than ever but a lot of people are walking away from these programs feeling more confused, more anxious, and more convinced that they are broken than when they started.

On this episode of THE CHASING CLARITY HEALTH & FITNESS PODCAST, I sit down with Sam Miller to break down where functional coaching is going wrong, how fear based messaging and diagnosis driven protocols are impacting clients and what a higher standard of coaching should actually look like if the goal is long term health and sustainable results.

HERE IS WHAT WE COVER️

WHY COOKIE CUTTER PROTOCOLS HAVE TAKEN OVER A FIELD THAT CLAIMS TO BE “INDIVIDUALIZED”️

HOW PRESET SYSTEMS AND TEMPLATES IGNORE REAL WORLD PHYSIOLOGY, PSYCHOLOGY, LIFESTYLE AND GOALS️

THE PROBLEM WITH VAGUE DIAGNOSES LIKE “ADRENAL FATIGUE” AND “WEIGHT LOSS RESISTANCE”️

HOW LABELING CLIENTS AS “BROKEN” CREATES FEAR, IDENTITY ISSUES AND DEPENDENCY️

THE RISE OF FEAR BASED MARKETING AND WHY IT DRIVES HYPERFIXATION AND OVER ANALYSIS️

HOW SUPPLEMENT AND PEPTIDE STACK OBSESSION PULLS ATTENTION AWAY FROM NUTRITION, TRAINING, SLEEP AND STRESS️
