Frequently Asked Questions

How does lifestyle coaching work if I wear a CGM or tracking tech?

How does lifestyle coaching work if I wear a CGM or tracking tech?

We use your wearable tech as a behavioral mirror to see how your body responds to everyday choices. I do not analyze data to manage disease, diagnose conditions, or prescribe therapies. Instead, we look at general trends to help you optimize your sleep hygiene, stress management, and daily movement routines.

Can you help me reverse or manage my diabetes or prediabetes?

No. Holistic health coaches and practitioners cannot treat, manage, or reverse clinical conditions. If you have a diagnosed metabolic condition, I will work alongside your care team to help you implement the general healthy lifestyle habits recommended by your physician or registered dietitian.

Do you prescribe specific diets or meal plans?

I do not prescribe restrictive therapeutic diets, macro splits, or medical nutrition therapy. We focus on general wellness education, such as the benefits of whole foods, optimal hydration, and food sequencing—like eating your vegetables and proteins before your carbohydrates to support steady, natural energy.

Can you tell me how to adjust my insulin or medication based on my tracker?

Absolutely not. Only your prescribing doctor can alter your medication or insulin dosages. If you see data patterns on your device that concern you, I will support you in documenting those trends so you can safely discuss them at your next medical appointment.

What is the difference between a health coach and a licensed dietitian or doctor?

Medical doctors and registered dietitians diagnose illness, prescribe treatment, and provide medical nutrition therapy. As a holistic coach, my role is behavioral and educational. I help you bridge the gap between medical advice and daily life by helping you build the sustainable habits needed to reach your wellness goals.

Do you take health insurance?

No. Because holistic health coaching focuses on wellness education and lifestyle optimization rather than treating diagnosed medical conditions, services are generally not covered by insurance. I can provide a receipt for your records, but I do not provide clinical superbills or diagnostic codes.
