This week, we've got another health coaching Q&A episode for you. We’ve taken listener questions and riffed on them so you can learn and we can grow.   In this episode, Erin tackles burnout in health coaching and provides tips on finding jobs. She also gives strategies that include optimizing sessions and group coaching. These are some valuable insights for health coaches seeking balance and opportunities.   More specifically, Erin has chosen two related questions to address:   First is a question from Eric. He explains that his business has grown to the point where he is feeling burnt out. He had a busy month full of discovery calls, onboarding sessions, and existing client calls, which made him feel like he was on Zoom the entire month. Eric asks for advice on how to regain some of his time, as he is unsure if he can continue at this pace.   Next is a question from Rebecca about being naturally entrepreneurial. Erin reassures listeners that even if they're not naturally inclined towards entrepreneurship, there are still plenty of health coaching jobs available, both in-person and remote.    Erin then moves on to a teaching moment where she shares a framework for coaching conversations that includes goal setting and accountability. She explains that every coaching session should have a goal and that an accountability plan should be built with the client's input. She shares different ways to ask clients about accountability, including asking for support, discussing strategies, setting checkpoints, and tracking progress.    Submit your questions to hello@primalhealthcoach.com   Episode Overview: 0:00:00 Introduction to Health Coach Radio 0:03:13 Sales and enrollment process: discovery call and onboarding call 0:05:07 Math on Eric's month: hours spent on different calls 0:09:52 The Surprising Results of Eric's $25,000 Month 0:12:21 The Dangers of Chasing Specific Monthly Income Goals 0:15:14 Ideas to Reclaim Time Without Losing Income 0:19:27 Increased Access and Higher Touch Experience for Clients 0:22:01 Addressing Concerns About Group Work and Encouraging Participation 0:23:36 Uncovering the Mysteries of the Human Microbiome 0:25:01 Observational Learning: Learning from Group Coaching Calls 0:28:24 Increase Accountability for Clients 0:31:01 Extend Program Duration for Higher Value 0:31:34 Extending Programs for Better Results and Less Turnover 0:32:24 Streamlining Your Coaching Schedule for Increased Income 0:35:20 Exploring Health Coach Jobs in the United States 0:37:38 Requirements for Health Coaching Job 0:39:56 Various Ways to Find Health Coaching Jobs 0:42:41 Staying Accountable to Your Goals     --- Health Coach Radio is a podcast that dives deep into the world of health and fitness coaching, brought to you by Primal Health Coach Institute, founded by the renowned Mark Sisson.
