Sam Miller Science S 821: From Burnout to Breakthrough: How Fernanda Transformed Her Coaching and Her Health
In this episode, I sit down with Fernanda from Forward Coaching — one of my long-time listeners turned FNMS Student and is now in Mastery. We explore her powerful evolution from frustrated personal trainer dealing with chronic symptoms to confident health coach delivering transformative results. Fernanda shares the winding road of working with 15+ practitioners, battling Hashimoto’s, and sifting through wellness noise before finding clarity and confidence through mentorship.
Topics Discussed:
- Fernanda’s journey
- 10-year struggle with symptoms like brain fog, bloating, and fatigue
- Hashimoto’s diagnosis — and how it changed her trajectory
- The “ego slap” of realizing how much more there is to learn
- Consistent content and trust-building as a coach
- Transforming client goals from aesthetics to real health wins
- The value of mentorship, live support, and peer learning
- Avoiding the trap of over-testing and over-supplementing clients
