In this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I sit down with Jennifer Broxterman from Prosper Nutrition Coaching to dive into the world of nutrition coaching. We cover everything from the pros and cons of macro counting to the importance of understanding a client’s history and staying curious in coaching relationships. Jennifer brings a wealth of knowledge as a registered dietitian and shares powerful insights, including the motivational interviewing techniques she picked up from a university research study.
