My year with FMCA has been the most transformative experience for me, equipping me with new skills and knowledge that I have been able to apply in all areas of my life. Being part of FMCA community of students and fellow graduates and being able to connect with so many inspiring people feels a privilege.
This has been a journey of personal growth. I learnt a lot about myself while learning about coaching skills. I believe that I emerged and improved and more mature person who listens better and is less judgmental. My aim is to help people change, heal, reclaim their goals and start pursuing them.

FMCA provided the training I needed to become a successful health coach. Their alignment with IFM made the program an obvious choice when it came time to commit to a certification route and has been helpful while working in the functional medicine world. I gained enough knowledge of the functional medicine approach to bridge the gap between practitioner and patient to help them achieve positive change. I appreciate that there is consistent, ongoing contact even after you complete the program and I always look forward to seeing what is new at FMCA!

I really enjoyed the FMCA program. Several years ago I was working with a functional medicine physician to tackle many chronic illnesses and had an incredible health coach to help me navigate it. Now, I have the skills to do the same for others and can give back in an incredibly fulfilling way.

What a gift this last year has been. My experience with the FMCA has been truly transformational. I went into the program curious about the concepts and the idea of coaching as a possible career change. As the year progressed, I became passionate about the idea of coaching and found myself embracing the lifestyle concepts. The program material is extremely well organized, comprehensive, engaging, and builds your confidence in coaching from one month to the next. The opportunity to practice coaching and learn alongside fellow students was invaluable. The FMCA Community of course facilitators and instructors are skillful, knowledgeable, and truly committed to your success as a coach. I am truly grateful for this experience, and the positive influence we as coaches are now fully prepared to have on our client’s health and wellbeing.
