In this episode, Kylie and Kara are joined by Courtney Kutzer, an assistant coach the Functional Fat Loss Academy. Courtney is a certified personal trainer as well as nutrition coach and works full time in her coaching role with Kara Goss Nutrition and Fitness, LLC.

Courtney joins your hosts for a long overdue conversation regarding in-person training versus online coaching. Kylie and Courtney use their previous experiences as in-person trainers to dive deep with Kara into the differences between these two modes of training/coaching. They discuss everything from services offered, pricing breakdowns, and the total value of each opportunity to the importance of connection in a coaching/training relationship. Kylie, Kara, and Courtney also address the increased impact they are able to have by reaching more women online.

Online coaches are frequently asked the differences between their services and working with an in-person trainer, and often have hesitation about not working with someone face-to-face, so if that's you or someone you know, this episode is incredibly valuable in helping breakdown each service so you can make the very best decision for yourself and your goals.

In today's episode, Kylie and Kara are joined by online health and fitness coach, Jonah Mitchell. Jonah’s program, The Total Mind & Body Transformation, focuses not only on the external steps necessary to achieve your health and fitness goals, but on the mental hurdles you must overcome first.
