Functional Nutritionist Andrea Nicholson shares the value of coaching and how it can change your life. She admits that as someone who prided herself on independence, asking for help was not in her nature. However, she realized that asking for help does not mean she is incapable or weak. Instead, it means she values getting results more than being independent. Through her own experience, Nicholson discovered that she had blindspots and settling for "fine" was not enough. Working with another professional helped her aim higher for vibrant health.
