FAQs:
I am passionate about nutrition and had been wanting to full fill my dream of starting an independent health coaching practice. My 4-year degree is in recreation management... however, I have realized that my main passion + purpose in life is inspiring individuals to live healthy lifestyles. I had been researching different nutrition schools before I came across and enrolled at IIN!
