Culture and Lifestyle Change: Lifestyle Coach Approaches to Understanding and Adapting Session Delivery to Support All Participants
Thursday, October 16, 2025 from 12:00-1:00pm ET
Competency: Cultural Humility
Participants bring their own stories, traditions, and experiences to the lifestyle change journey, and these can shape how they engage in behavior change, make food choices, participate in physical activity, and find support. This webinar explores how a person's background, upbringing, and heritage influence their choices, habits, and motivation. Lifestyle Coaches will learn how to recognize and respect these influences while offering support that fits each individual’s reality. From food preferences to how people seek support, this session will help coaches better connect with participants and guide them in ways that feel authentic and sustainable.
This webinar will be held live on Thursday, October 16, 2025 from 12:00-1:00 pm ET. If a registrant is unable to attend the live event, a webinar recording will be sent to all registrants. This course must be completed 3 weeks (21 days) after the live event to receive a certificate of completion.
