Graduates of our program are now working as coaches, dietitians, nurses and more. Read their stories, and find the rest on the testimonials page.
“When I started last year, I hired someone locally to help me set up my practice and coach me on the ins and outs of running a private practice (as you know, this is something they don't train you on in RD school). She was a local RD who was winding down her practice to pursue another opportunity, so I thought she would be a good resource. I paid her a lot more than I paid for your program and got a lot less! I have enjoyed and gained something from each webinar. The handouts are all very helpful, and being part of the Nutritious Life community is a great resource as well. Everyone is very responsive and so warm. I truly feel like we want each other to succeed, which is nice. I don't get that from the RDs in my area.”
“I found the handouts and sample meal plans really helpful, and they have been great to use with some of my private clients. I am still working on building referrals and clientele and hope to, at some point, go out on my own completely. I do feel that I have the tools I need to do that, thanks to the Nutritious Life Studio.”
“The information provided and the opportunity to reach out and have so many resources now at my fingertips have given me the extra confidence I needed, along with the support of colleagues that had been missing. The philosophy of Nutritious Life is the same as mine, but working alone in private practice, I found myself doubting my beliefs. Now, having this huge community to support me, I can continue to counsel my clients with more confidence! I'm so excited to see my company grow!”
“Dani’s journey with Nutritious Life has been a game-changer. As an already certified personal trainer, she was missing a crucial piece of the puzzle—nutrition. This course provided her with the knowledge and tools she needed to finally take the leap and launch her business, Body by Dani. Today, she is able to significantly increase her income by offering a variety of nutrition services and packages to her fitness clientele, including grocery store tours, pantry clean-outs, menu coaching and nutrition coaching.”
“It can feel overwhelming to start a business from scratch, but the lessons and resources inside the program have proved be be invaluable and I honestly credit Keri for helping build my business to where it is today — a steady roster of private clients, growing my group coaching program from 20 to 100+ women, and an engaged social media following.”
“Mercedes, a trained chef, recognized that the path to healthy living begins in the kitchen. With her culinary expertise and a certification in hand, she harnessed the power of the Nutritious Life community to gain the confidence and support to pivot her business to online cooking classes. Now, she helps clients make empowered food choices and find joy in the kitchen through a range of virtual courses including pantry makeovers, private cooking courses and group programs. This transition to online offerings has not only significantly boosted her income but also completely transformed her quality of life. Those long hours in the kitchen are long gone, granting her the freedom and flexibility to craft her own schedule and truly thrive.”

We definitely understand juggling busy schedules. The course is designed so that you can complete each lesson on your own time. Yep, that could mean PJs on, feet kicked up, with a warm cuppa joe or knockin’ it out during your corporate lunch hour. After you finish each lesson, you’ll download study materials and resources, and take the time you need to let the info soak in. An hour (if you’re already super familiar with the subject), a day, a week, a month — it’s up to you! Then, you’ll take a quiz. In order to progress to the next lesson, you need to pass the quiz to unlock the following lesson – so you can pace yourself and complete the sessions on your own time. We recommend completing between 3 – 4 lessons per week to complete the Foundational Nutrition and Wellness Coach Program portion within the first month, and completing at least one module per week for a 5-month completion of the Master Nutrition and Wellness Coach Program portion – but it’s totally up to you to take the time you need!
There are weekly Zoom sessions for you to engage with students and Nutritious Life team members, ask questions and gain support. These live calls include study halls, book club discussions, Q&As, and bonus webinars and are what our community members look forward to most each week! You’ll build life-long friendships, find business partners and collaborators, and create your own network of meaningful connections. While we encourage participation, none of these live classes are mandatory.

A Nutrition Coach, or a Nutrition and Wellness Coach, works with clients on accountability, behavior changes, education, and incorporating healthy habits that will contribute to their overall wellness and nutrition goals. They are their client’s biggest motivator, educator, and guide, and they help clients through every step of their journey. A Nutrition and Wellness Coach does not diagnose, prescribe, or directly treat chronic conditions, practice Medical Nutrition Therapy, or create meal plans. They are someone who can truly help clients set—and reach—their health-related and nutrition goals. They understand the challenges each individual client faces with their health history and eating habits, and they create a strategy to help them overcome their obstacles to make lasting changes in their diet. A Nutrition and Wellness Coach empowers clients to make the best food and wellness decisions to live healthier, happier lives. Nutrition and wellness coaches, through their knowledge, mastery of human behavior, coaching skills, accountability, guidance, and encouragement are the agents of change the world needs to make the planet a better place. Becoming a nutrition coach may start with learning science, but it ends with changing people’s lives for the better.
