What is a Fertility Coach and Why Do You Need to Become 0ne?

What does a fertility coach do??

This person guides you on your path to parenthood.?Physically, mentally, and emotionally.?body, mind, and spirit whether that happens through natural conception, assisted reproductive technology (ART), or adoption.

This person isn’t on the journey (but many have walked it) so they can see things that you might be missing, and they are an unbiased third party.?Think of your coach as your personal guide.?They are going to lead you to your baby and make your journey that much more fun and bearable.?Not to mention many of them including myself are EXPERTS in fertility and hormones as well as habit change.?They know the ends and outs of this journey and are a key part of your fertility team.??

Fertility coaching is turning your pain into purpose and is a wonderful impactful niche. Your coaching business not only changes your clients’ lives, but it also gives you the life of freedom, flexibility, financial security, and control you’ve been dreaming of.

How in demand are Fertility Coaches??

The fertility market is estimated to grow to a?$47.9 billion market by 2030 , which shows that people are willing to spend money in this niche. People spend thousands of dollars on things like IVF, fertility supplements, nutritional therapies, functional lab tests, fertility tracking, egg freezing, and more.?

How much does a fertility coach charge??

According to the?ICF Global Coaching Study , the average fertility coach's salary is $62,500. However, you can make a lot more, just like many of my students and myself included who make six figures and multiple six figures.?

It all comes down to your goals and how hard you are willing to work. It also depends on the business you want to build. I wanted a multiple six-figure business so I could have financial and time freedom. Others might only want this as a part-time gig. Either way, you can build a purposeful and profitable business, create a flexible schedule and manifest your dream life in this career.

That said, building a six-figure business takes work. But not JUST hard work. There’s also grit, determination, resilience, creativity, and resourcefulness… Just to name a few.

How do you become certified??

Look no further.?Here at Fertility Coach University, we certified people just like you in the field of fertility and hormone coaching. Our program is accredited and certified through The American Association of Drugless Practitioners (www.aadp.net) and as a graduate, you will have all the skills you need to start, build, grow, and scale a profitable and purposeful practice.

Anything to watch for when choosing a program?

Make sure the fertility coach certification you choose is accredited and certified. Fertility Coaching has become a buzzword lately and many weekend programs are popping up to “certify” coaches.?Make sure the educators in the program have the proper credentials behind their names and they are actual experts.?Do your research before choosing a program. Just because you can become certified in a weekend doesn't mean you will be qualified or educated enough to guide someone on this very important journey as their fertility coach.

So, what are my qualifications??

I am a board-certified Doctor of Natural Medicine (DNM) with a Ph.D. and Masters's degree in Natural Medicine, a Board-Certified Functional Nutritionist, and a Holistic Health Coach as well as I have two bachelor's degrees. One in nutrition and one in holistic health sciences. I have been coaching clients for over 25 years. I have also done countless years of research and studying to learn my craft and my clients get great results.?I don’t sell products and am not part of any MLM.?

With 1 in 6 couples struggling globally to get pregnant, now is the time to help this underserved demographic. Fertility coaching is one of the most rewarding fields you could pursue. Words can't describe the feeling you get by helping someone start or build their family and there just aren't enough qualified coaches to fill the needs of this fast-growing demographic.
