Transforming Lives with Health Coaching
"Your follow ups have been key in keeping me on track. Because of your Health Coaching, I have been able to stay off of medicine. I thank you so much. You are a real blessing to come into this time of my life."
"Healthier Texas and its free Health Coaching program has been great for me! Natalie, my Health Coach, has been so kind, supportive and helpful. We meet 1-3 times a month to celelbrate 'wins' and 'not wins' and to discuss short-term health goals. It helps to have someone in your corner to provide support and accountability."
"Having a call each week helps keep the ball rolling. Its amazing that this service is free!"
"You are my biggest cheer leader, probably my only cheer leader. You have no idea how much I appreciate you and the impact you have on my life."
"I'm so glad my doctor referred me to these phone calls. They are very helpful. I've had diabetes for 10 years and I'm learning so much now with these calls...I like that you listen and give me ideas on what to eat. The way you talk to us, I feel like I can be open to you and not feel bad about it. It is a positive thing all around."
