Health and wellness coaching is a 1:1 partnership designed to help you better understand what may be standing between you and the way you want to feel, function, and live. Together, we explore your current health, lifestyle, and habits with the goal of creating meaningful changes that support your overall well-being and goals in life. Well-being is an optimal and dynamic state that allows people to achieve their full potential whether that be through ones physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual health. Health coaching also helps to uncover the reasons why you may feel “stuck”. One of the goals of coaching is to peel back the layers, work through these root causes, and build new habits that align with the life you want to live.
Maybe you know what you should be doing, but struggle to actually do it consistently. Maybe you’ve tried to change your habits before, only to find yourself falling back into the same patterns. Or maybe you simply know you want to feel better, or be closer to your goals than where you’re currently at, but don’t know where to start.
That’s where health and wellness coaching comes in.
Together, we look at the bigger picture of your well-being and review your habits, routines, stress, sleep, movement, nutrition, relationships, environment, mindset, and the things that impact your ability to thrive.
Coaching helps identify what matters most to you, help work through the things holding you back, and turn your goals into small, realistic changes you can sustain.
How Does It Work?
Why Functional Medicine?
Functional medicine is a science-based, patient-centered approach that looks at the root causes of disease rather than just treating symptoms. It recognizes that we all experience bio-individuality because of our unique genetics, experiences, environment, and lifestyle- which means our approach to wellness should be highly personalized. Unlike conventional care, functional medicine seeks to understand why symptoms are occurring in the first place and looks at them through a more holistic lens.
Feeling and functioning better allows you to reach your goals and spend more time doing the things that matter most. Whether that be a career pivot, lifestyle overhaul, weight loss journey, wanting to handle stress better, or whatever your goal is- viewing health coaching through a Functional medicine lens is one tool we can use to help you work through barriers and get you to where you want to be.
Throughout my 8 years working as a nurse and 13 years in healthcare, I’ve seen patients and clients put on medications for years, sometimes indefinitely, without much conversation about why they developed a chronic condition in the first place.
I respect that there is a time and place for Western medicine. I believe there is an equally important place for diet, lifestyle, movement, sleep, light exposure, hydration, stress, our environment, social connections, and having meaning and purpose in our lives. I don’t think we talk about these things enough.
That is where Better With Lexi Health Coaching can help.
There are so many small actionable steps you can take today to support your health, feel better, and work toward the life you want to live.
As someone who’s worked with a health coach myself, I know how empowering it is to have someone see you, hear you, and walk alongside you to work on your health and wellness in ways that can truly impact your life.
Why Work With Lexi?
Health coaching is a place to truly feel seen and heard – without judgement, and once we feel seen we are able to connect with what we really want and need. In a world that constantly tells us we’re not enough, being heard is the first step towards healing. I believe in reconnecting with our intuition and trusting our bodies to know exactly what we need. Health and wellness shouldn’t feel restrictive, but lived out in a way that is sustainable, nourishing, easy. What I offer is a holistic approach, encompassing every aspect of life that contributes to health and disease. My methods include a detailed assessment of where someone is when we start working together- this entails a comprehensive look at daily behaviors, habits, and if looking to work more on health-related goals, then we include current medical conditions, medications, labs, and any other information provided about where someone is starting. From there we complete an initial call that goes through the goals you have right now, and how we can get you there.
I’m a very empathetic person with a passion for inspiring people and cheering them on. I genuinely believe this world is a better place when we feel better, and do the things we truly want to do in life. In my current role as a Nurse Care Manager outside of Better With Lexi, I act as a health coach in many ways to my current clients. I’ve been told that I am detailed, thorough, and am a good sounding board for someone to bounce ideas off of. I’m also very resourceful and if I do not know the answers I will give you options and places to find them. I value taking accountability and responsibility for our actions, and the idea that self-worth and confidence are built by doing the things you say you’re going to do. I help people hold themselves accountable to what we discuss in a gentle way that encourages growth and healing.
Helping people and giving back is my passion – I love connecting, coaching, and seeing people thrive. I would love to work with you on your health and wellness journey.
Above all, I help people get unstuck. I especially love working with people on diet, nutrition and cooking. I have experience with healthy recipe development, macros, hydration, blood sugar regulation, blood pressure regulation, anxiety and depression, autoimmune conditions, weight loss, strength training, stress reduction, self-esteem and confidence building, and hormonal concerns like PMOS, but your goals don’t have to fit into one of these boxes for us to work together. I genuinely believe you can do anything you set your mind to, and I would love to help if this sounds like the right fit!
The first step to working together is filling out my contact form below and I will get back to you with 48 business hours.
I look forward to connecting with you!
Kindly,
Lexi
