  • S2_EP_48_Flex Diet Online Mentorship - Applications open until midnight June 4, 2021

    Want to learn how to do online training that includes physiology and marketing business?

    That is why I developed the Flex Diet Mentorship.

    In the FD Mentorship, I will teach you my complete online coaching system including all 4 components 1) online training principles and assessments 2) business/marketing 3) mindset – both yours and your clients 4) personal development.   

    Applications close this Friday, June 4 at midnight CST. To apply, find a way to email me directly and ask for the application. This is your first "poo test" as I have not put my email here on purpose. I trust you can find a way to reach me.

    Note- this is expensive and is the only time I am offering it this year, 2021. I will most likely do it again in 2022 but I am not 100% certain yet.

    Not sure? Here is what Ryan, online trainer and coach, had to say:

    "The Flex Diet Mentorship provided me everything I needed to evolve my coaching business into something I can be proud of.  Everything from my lead generation to my on-boarding process, to my client assessments, were improved by being part of the Flex Diet Mentorship. 

    Not only does Dr. Mike teach you an effective framework you can use to improve your business, he also provides invaluable coaching skills to make you a better coach for your clients.  Weekly assignments help reinforce the lessons you learn, and the knowledge sharing between Dr. Mike and the other mentees provides invaluable insights into the way other coaches are running their businesses. 

    Since completing the Flex Diet Mentorship my coaching business has grown to the point where I now have an active waiting list and I know this was due to what I learned in the Flex Diet Mentorship." 

    Find a way to email me to apply before this Friday, Jun 4 at midnight.
