After losing 40 pounds with Wildfit, Sandra expanded their coaching expertise through Holobody. They now integrate transformative techniques into their sports coaching practice and are preparing to launch a health coaching business to help others overcome chronic health challenges.
I have worked in healthcare for over 30 years. I've also been involved as a coach in sports for almost as long. In 2019, I started my own coaching business in the sport of Curling where I provide coaching to individuals, teams, and programs including 1-1, team, and large group camps. I've taken several courses to improve my knowledge and skill level including becoming certified as a Coach Developer with the International Council on Coaching Education and the United States Council on Coaching Excellence. I joined Mindvalley at the beginning of 2022 and then took the Wildfit program. This changed my life as I lost over 40 pounds that I had gradually been putting on over the past 10 years and I had struggled to lose. I was impressed with the quality of the Wildfit program, and other Mindvalley programs such as Superbrain, so when I saw the opportunity to advance my coaching skills and my own transformation through Holobody, I took the opportunity! I have not been disappointed as I found the quality of the Holobody program to be very high. I have learned many processes and techniques that I have practiced and incorporated in my role as a sports coach over the course of the program. There is still a lot of information for me to learn and skills to practice which I will continue to do going forward - both for myself and my athletes. I also intend to branch out into health coaching as I believe there is a need and a demand that is building across the globe. Increasing numbers of people with insulin resistance, diabetes, and obesity are at critical levels in many places. With my skills gained from Holobody, along with my varied background and experience, I believe I have a good foundation to help others reduce, reverse and overcome health challenges so they may enjoy and thrive in their lives.
