Exploring Hormone Coaching with Essentially Her

Discover the transformative power of hormone coaching with Essentially Her and how it can improve your overall well-being.

Understanding Hormone Coaching

Hormone coaching is a specialized form of health coaching that focuses on helping women balance and optimize their hormone health. Hormones play a crucial role in our overall well-being, affecting our mood, energy levels, weight management, and more. Hormone coaching involves learning about the different hormones in our body, how they interact with each other, and how imbalances can impact our health.

During hormone coaching, clients work with a trained coach who can guide them in identifying and addressing hormone imbalances-- working to identify the root cause of the imbalance while also providing symptom support. This may involve lifestyle changes, dietary adjustments, stress management techniques, and other strategies to support hormone balance. By understanding hormone coaching, individuals can take proactive steps to optimize their hormone levels and improve their overall health and well-being.

Benefits of Hormone Coaching

There are numerous benefits to hormone coaching. For example, by working with a hormone coach, women can experience improved mood and mental well-being. Hormone imbalances can often contribute to symptoms of anxiety, depression, irritability, and mood swings. Through hormone coaching, individuals can learn strategies to balance their hormones and alleviate these symptoms.

Hormone coaching can also support weight management efforts. Hormone imbalances, such as insulin resistance or thyroid dysfunction, can make it difficult to lose or maintain weight. A hormone coach can help individuals identify and address these imbalances, leading to more successful weight management.

Additionally, hormone coaching can improve energy levels and reduce fatigue. Hormone imbalances can cause feelings of sluggishness and low energy, making it difficult to perform daily activities. By optimizing hormone levels, individuals can experience increased energy and vitality.

Other benefits of hormone coaching may include improved sleep, enhanced libido, better cognitive function, and reduced symptoms of PMS or menopause. Overall, hormone coaching offers a holistic approach to health and well-being by addressing the root cause of symptoms and supporting hormone balance.

Essentially Her Approach to Hormone Coaching

Essentially Her takes a personalized and integrative approach to hormone coaching using the acronym LEARN. 

L: Listen.
Clients can expect to be in the driver seat for most conversations. Think of your coach as a built-in support sister. It's important to have a sisterhood for healing & affirmation.

E: Educate.
Through our time together, we'll work through the "Vital Cycle 365" Program. This program typically takes around 3 months to complete, and you'll learn more than you ever thought possible about your hormones, but in a simple, easy to understand way. We'll discuss how your gut, liver, adrenal glands and inflammation all impact the health of your hormones.

A: Address.
Together, we'll create a customized hormone support plan to holistically address YOUR symptoms of imbalance. We'll explore cycle-syncing biohacks, nutrition, movement, supplements and even essential oils if you're interested. 

R: Root.
Because symptoms are typically "downstream" from a different issue, we'll work together to identify the root cause of your symptoms and move the needle on your health journey.

N: Next Steps.
Should you need it, Essentially Her can refer you to aligned providers with Next Steps.

Achieving hormone balance is unique to each individual, so by working together, we can craft a custom support plan to address your individual needs.

The coaching process begins with a comprehensive assessment to identify any hormone imbalances or deficiencies. We do this with by having clients fill out a couple of forms, and discussing their "Cycle Story" during a virtual 20-minute consultation. Based on the assessment, a customized coaching plan is created, which may include dietary recommendations, exercise protocols, stress management techniques, and natural supplements. What makes Essentially Her unique for 1:1 clients is the JOINT effort in crafting this plan. This is a co-created, evolving document that guides our time together. 

As explained above, the Vital Cycle 365 program has 5 educational sessions, and clients that choose the 1:1 coaching option will also receive 5 individual calls and additional accountability. The program typically takes around 12 weeks to complete.

With a compassionate and supportive approach, the coaching program empowers clients to understand their health and take actions to improve their wellness. The program provides ongoing support, monitors progress, and allows for necessary adjustments to ensure optimal results. Essentially Her is committed to helping individuals achieve hormonal harmony and live their best lives.
