Kirsten Hemmer, Certified Resilience Health Coach
Who is Kirsten? Please introduce yourself.
Hello, my name is Kirsten. I am a mom of two, and I believe my purpose in life is to be a mom and to help people.
What inspired you to become a Resilience Health Coach?
I have personally been through many different mental and physical health challenges in my life. I believe I went through these challenges to help support others who are also experiencing health challenges.
What does resilience coaching mean to you?
To me, resilience coaching means developing a more positive mindset around the challenges that happen in your life.
Who do you help the most with your coaching?
I help people who struggle with health challenges and who truly want to feel listened to and understood. They are looking to find fulfillment in their lives again.
What are the biggest challenges your clients face before working with you?
The challenges my clients face include having a more negative mindset, people-pleasing, feeling defeated, and not knowing who they truly are or what they want in their lives.
How do you help clients overcome those challenges?
We work on developing a more positive mindset when it comes to health challenges, while still honoring the complex emotions that come with experiencing these challenges. I ask powerful questions to help them understand who they are and what they truly want out of life.
What makes your coaching different from other health or life coaches?
I have personally gone through health challenges my whole life, so I can truly understand what my clients go through and empathize with them.
Can you share a transformation story of someone you’ve helped?
A client came to me feeling very depressed about their life circumstances and had many expectations placed on them by others. We started exploring who they really were and what truly made them happy in life. They began doing more of what made them happy, not just what others expected them to do. They developed a much more optimistic outlook for their future by living a life they desired.
What results can clients expect when they work with you?
Clients can expect more self-love, feeling valued for who they truly are, strength, and seeing challenges from different perspectives, and becoming more aware of who they are and what makes them happy, when living the life they desire.
What is one common myth about health challenges and resilience you want to bust?
Having health challenges does not define you, and you can still live a happy and fulfilling life.
How can someone start working with you, and what’s the first step?
They can contact me at my website or email me. I believe everyone has a light within, but sometimes we just need support in finding it!
