It could also change the world.

What if you could make a living … making a difference?

As you consider your next career move, you may not know exactly what it looks like, but chances are you have an idea of what it should feel like.

And the right career path for you would let you:

• Tap your natural gift for communication and listening
• Develop new skills and expertise for helping others
• Draw on your passion for wellness, healthy living, and disease prevention
• Make a real and lasting impact on others’ lives
• Earn a living doing something you actually believe in

This is the job of a health coach.

And if it appeals to you, you may have exactly what it takes to become a great one.

Introducing the ADAPT Health Coach Training Program

I designed this program specifically to:

• Uphold high, evidence-based standards
• Directly address the steep rise in chronic disease nationwide
• Close the frightening gaps in the current healthcare system
• Equip, support, and train health coaches to do paradigm-shifting work

Ancestral Advantage.

The most powerful lens for focusing your nutrition and lifestyle recommendations

Few health coaching programs offer much in the way of nutrition training. Those that do tend to give an overview of different diets—Mediterranean, vegetarian, vegan—without specific recommendations backed up by science.

We provide in-depth and evidence-based training on ancestral health and nutrition. We'll tell you what works—and why.

Why an ancestral diet?

The reason we’re able to provide far more practical diet and lifestyle information than any other program is because we take an ancestral approach to diet and lifestyle—the most effective approach for preventing and reversing disease. Here’s why:

• Like all organisms, humans adapted to survive and thrive in a particular environment.
• Our environment has changed dramatically since the days of our hunter–gatherer ancestors. Processed foods, artificial light, and our largely sedentary lives have affected everything from our digestion to our sleep patterns.
• The human body has not caught up to the changes in the modern environment—causing a mismatch between our genes and the world around us.
• This mismatch is the driving factor behind the modern epidemic of chronic disease.
• The goal: realign your body with the environment.

All of this is geared toward helping you not only apply the concepts and master the skills—but also prepare for certification at the end.

OK, so what makes this program different from other coaching programs?

An innovative approach to learning

The traditional methods for learning (which you were taught in school) don’t work. So we don’t use them. No “firehose” of information. No brute-force memorization. The research on learning theory is very clear—these methods don’t help you actually absorb or use information.

We use the “sprinkler” method:

• Content is delivered a little bit at a time, over a longer period of time. Think a couple of hours a week over several months rather than a 3-day workshop.
• Topics unfold in a way that mimics how you will apply them later. This helps you put what you learn into practice so it doesn’t just go in one ear and out the other.
• Our approach encourages thinking, analysis, problem solving, and discovery—the same skills you need to be successful as a health coach.
• We use low-stakes quizzes, prompts, action steps, peer-to-peer practice, and other tools for increasing comprehension and retention. There is no learning without action.
