About us

The Health and Well-Being Coaching Conference is the first and only dedicated professional event for practicing health and wellness coaches. The intention of this unique, intimate two-day conference—held in beautiful San Diego, CA just minutes from the airport and right along the water— is to deepen the knowledge and skills of new and seasoned coaches alike through cutting edge education provided by leading experts in the fields, while also cultivating a dedicated space for meaningful social connection and professional collaboration. With this clear mission in mind, the event is intentionally space limited, with an exciting balance of educational sessions, interactive activities and social gatherings built into the conference schedule to ensure quality time is created and held to allow for genuine connection within the coaching community. This includes "practicing what we preach" through early morning guided group movement experiences, guided mindfulness activities spread throughout the event, social gatherings while enjoying plant-forward appetizers and means (and a great assortment of delicious beverages) and other special elements, including an awards ceremony to celebrate and honor incredible coaches and leaders making and impact in the field.

    This is only the start of a movement. The second annual The Health and Well-Being Coaching Conference was an incredible success, specifically because of each and every person who has chosen to be a part of this health and wellness coaching movement. Our primary objective since we (my husband and I) first began envisioning the conference in 2018 was to create a dedicated space— accessible both physically and virtually— where we as professionals committed to excellence and to further advancing the field of health and wellness coaching could come together to genuinely connect, learn and collaborate. We truly believe that when we gather in community and intentionally support and uplift one another that together we can accomplish incredible things….and meaningfully serve so many people through our individual and collective work! From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for believing in us, for sharing in our mission, and for doing the transformative work that you do each and every day to empower others to truly live well and to make health and well-being accessible for all. 🫶🏽 🔥🎥 by Rolling Shutter Imagery Full scoop on the conference 👉🏽 https://lnkd.in/g_2KTKat #thecoachingconference #healthcoaching #behaviorchange #conference #powerofcommunity

  • When we say we have an amazing program in store, we aren’t kidding! Specifically, we kick off Saturday morning with “The Art of Coaching Presence” with Billie Frances of Guiding Mindful Change and author of “Awareness is Enough: Reflections on Being a Coach.” This session will explore how presence, curiosity and compassion can alert us to tendencies to over-commit and over-serve, subtly rush to solutions, crave breakthroughs on our watch, or cheerlead when we mean to empower. Through mindfulness experiences, discussion, and sharing we’ll explore how to welcome the vulnerable void of a mindful pause and trust the insight and solutions arising from that space. Then after a hope-inspired keynote from motivational interviewing (MI) co-creator, Dr. Miller, we keep the amazing learning going with “Community as Medicine” with Rachel Barach and Dr. Benjamin Emmert-Aronson of Open Source Wellness! This session brings the wellness wheel to life and illuminates opportunities to amplify the impact of health coaching by leveraging the power of community and peer support— to include adding experiential learning and transformational experiences alongside traditional talk-based coaching. And this is just what’s on deck before lunch!🤯 We’re winding down registration for in-person attendance with the kick off for the conference right around the corner on June 7th, so let this be your call to take action if you want to be a part of this year’s special event 💜 https://lnkd.in/gPV5pUvZ #thecoachingconference #healthcoaching #conferencespeaker

  • We’ve got your back. 🫶🏽 With love in the air this Valentine’s Day, allow us to (re)introduce ourselves—the dynamic husband-wife duo behind The Health and Well-Being Coaching Conference 💕 Since 2018, we (Jess and Jay) have been secretly and meticulously planning what we lovingly referred to for years as “Project X.” In fact, much of the planning for this one-of-a-kind conference occurred while out on our daily walks around Ocean Beach—our hometown for nearly two decades, which is located just minutes from the event venue.

Originally the conference was planned for August 2020, and well, unfortunately a pandemic unfolded. It was then rescheduled to August 2022 and sadly Jess fell quite ill and scarily nearly lost her life. Flash forward to June 2023, with restored health and an unwavering commitment to bringing this unique event to fruition, we excitedly hosted the inaugural The Health and Well-Being Coaching and let’s just say the event was well worth the wait (but don’t just take our word for it— our “early adopters” can attest to this!). We have been happily married for over 11 years, enjoy spending time together traveling around the globe, and we also share a deep passion for educating others (check out our bios— we’re the real deal 🤓), giving back and serving our local community as well as the greater good through our personal and professional endeavors—to include through the creation of The Health and Well-Being Coaching Conference as well as the establishment of our non-profit organization, Real World Well-Being. Our love for each other and for our people runs deep, ya’ll, and we know you’ll feel at the conference in June. 💜 https://lnkd.in/g-BgAQXp #thecoachingconference #lovetolove
