Course Details:
Ever feel like you’re watching the same behavior change movie on repeat? You build trust with clients, explore their readiness for change, set SMART goals and they leave your session with a committed smile… then poof —they vanish into the behavior change void. We’ve all been there, and let’s be honest – as a coach, it can be tough. Even with the many coaching tools and techniques we’ve been taught, it feels like something is missing in the behavior change puzzle.
Behavioral science is a field dedicated to uncovering what drives lasting behavior change, yet most health coaches never get access to these powerful insights. In this behavioral science masterclass, we’ll dive into the neuroscience of what truly sparks (and dims) our motivational drive, how habits form and break, and learn how to apply advanced theories and frameworks to deliver personalized interventions that make a lasting impact.
Closing the gap between good intentions and lasting change? It can become your expertise. Level-up your coaching with behavioral science and watch your client success stories unfold.
