What to Expect in Each Session...
1st Session
Coaching starts with a 1 hour visioning session where we define what your optimal health vision is for yourself and
2 to 4 short term health goals to work on during coaching.
If you are unsure of where to start, I will share health information about:
- Increasing healthier food choices
- Adding activity into your day
- Reducing stress
- Decreasing environmental toxins.
We then can decide which area or areas are a good place to start.
Typical Sessions
After the visioning session is complete, each 45 min to 1 hour session will focus on identifying ways in which you can move towards your short term health goals.
Such a session might include discussing:
- Key motivators to change
- Strategies to overcome hurdles
- Brainstorming ways to try out a new health technique
- Short educational segments on nutrition/activity/environmental toxins/stress
- Increasing confidence to achieve a goal
- Creating a detailed, realistic, attainable plan to experiment with a small goal
Last Session
By the end of coaching, you will have more direction on how to achieve health goals, the ability to implement health strategies that fit your lifestyle, improved emotional and physical well-being, and confidence in taking the next steps.

- Weekly 1 hour sessions for month 1
- Weekly or bi-weekly for months 2 through 4

Over the course of 5 months, with Chaffin’s help, education, and coaching, I was able to incorporate healthier foods into my diet, exercise more, and sleep better- all things I’ve tried doing a million times before but never been able to stick with it. Chaffin helped me break down the big list that the doctor gave me to do into small goals that I could build upon.
I also learned so much about which foods to eat. She taught me how to eat in a healthy way without breaking the bank and even how to get my kids to eat healthier too. I feel way better, my family and work both notice that I am happier and more energetic these days. I highly recommend working with Chaffin if you too are overwhelmed with where your health is at versus where it needs to be.

I went to the doctor at the end of 2021 to learn that I was now diabetic. The doctor gave me a list of changes I needed to make to my life, which left me incredibly overwhelmed and even angry at myself for letting my body get this way. When I started working with Chaffin, that overwhelm quickly dissipated. Chaffin helped me see that I was capable of making all the changes and that I could make them at a pace that fit my life. Through coaching, Chaffin helped me eat healthier, implement stress reduction activities, exercise 4x a week, and feel more confident in who I am now and who I am becoming.
