WHAT OUR ALUMNI HAVE TO SAY…

“Jessica Drummond is one of the most amazing women and mentors I’ve had the pleasure to meet (virtually). IWHI provided all the answers I have been searching for – an integrative approach to women’s health care, combining nutrition, lifestyle, and premier coaching for ultimate health.”

I stumbled across IWHI in 2014 when I was trying to find help for the many personal issues I was facing. My health was at its lowest, I’d just had my first Endometriosis laparoscopy, and was still experiencing many symptoms particularly digestively and hormonally.

I am blessed to be among the first students to enroll in the Women’s Health Coaching program. The program changed my life, transforming my health and the health of my complex clients beyond bounds.

Going through the WHC program has also inspired me to start up my own online education and coaching business – The Pelvic Expert. I’m so grateful to have the support of amazing therapists, coaches, and healers like Jessica. Thank you Jessica for being an amazing inspiration!”

Heba Shaheed

PT, WHC , The Pelvic Expert

“The WHC Certification Program is rocking my world. I have done a lot of training programs in the last five years and this is hands down the best one I’ve ever participated in.

In this relatively new field of work in which research and facts are sometimes scarce, having access to this course that is so well-researched is so encouraging. Jessica has covered every aspect of women’s hormonal health and backed it all up with thorough evidence-based research. It’s all very compelling!

Each session has been interactive and engaging. Jessica is a masterful teacher and her passion for this work really shines through every step of the way. She has left no stone unturned and covers each topic comprehensively.

There is so much material that I find myself going back through each of the webinars at least 2 or 3 times. Additionally, I’ve implemented a lot of what I’ve learned into my own practice and I’m seeing phenomenal results with my clients.

If you are a coach or physical therapist and want to learn the best evidence-based practices to help your female clients, this is the course to take!”

“I cannot say enough good things about IWHI’s Women’s Health Coach Certification program. It is thorough, informative, evidence-based, practical, and changes the paradigm of caring for women with pelvic pain.

As a board-certified obstetrician and gynecologist who has been dissatisfied with the standard of care for pelvic pain and spent thousands of dollars attending numerous conferences on pelvic pain, pain processing, holistic and integrative medicine, I wish I had started with this program first.

I would have saved money and been very well prepared to treat this patient population in a more evidence-based way.

For any medical doctors who may be hesitant, delay no longer; you will be more than satisfied! This course will change your practice and the way you view not only your pelvic pain patients but all of your patients.”

Dr. Lanniece Hall

“I really loved the Women’s Health Coach Certification program! So much so that I signed up for more courses with IWHI.”

I’ve taken other health coaching programs, but have learned a lot of new material going through the WHC. The program is taught in a way that makes sense, step by step. Each module is very informative and I really loved plugging through one by one. Starting a new module felt like opening up a present.

Also, with some online learning that I’ve experienced it seemed as the teacher is reading straight from notes and I had a hard time focusing. Jessica isn’t like that.

I felt like she was speaking directly to me. It kept me engaged and interested. Jessica is very personable, knowledgeable and really cares about teaching health coaching. It is so obvious that she is extremely committed and caring! The support I received during the program was wonderful and made me feel almost like “family”. “

It was really hard for me to figure out how I wanted to narrow down my focus and identify my niche and ideal client- I just kept struggling. But Jessica and Amy were patient and coached me through it and gave me such helpful advice. I’m lucky to have them as my mentors and grateful that I took this course at the early stages in building my business- it got me out of being “stuck” and into taking action! Thanks!

      I have been a successful clinician in private practice for a long time, but stepping into training other clinicians to work with complex medical cases was challenging to say the least. It is also too easy to fall into analysis paralysis and get in your own way no matter how experienced of a business owner you already are! Jessica’s support helped me get over myself and just go and do it - launch my EBV Clinician Training Program that I am now absolutely loving!!! Thank you, Jessica!!! And I know I had to listen because while we are colleague nutritionists and both successful business owners, I often look up to her for her amazing business expertise and savvy and practical approach. Her guidance has been priceless and always so appreciated. I can promise you that any business coaching Jessica puts together will be phenomenal and worth every penny!

It was amazing accountability. My business expanded while I was working with Jessica. I increased my client base and was asked to join a couple of partnerships. All of which increased my monthly income significantly. Michael Robilotto is wonderful. He is easy to communicate with and went above and beyond to assist me with legal documents that were very scary for a newcomer. I highly recommend working with him.

How can I add more value to my treatment and help my clients holistically? I wanted to heal every client and was disappointed if I could not.

The format worked out great and I really appreciated the ability to pose questions and comments in real time - both in the chat box and via mic. Jessica is extremely knowledgeable and a receptive/responsive instructor. I love the integrative approach, especially since it's already the way I approach working with my patients, but I felt the nutritional aspect was a big gap in my knowledge, which this course has started to fill. I'm very much looking forward to taking further courses from the IWHI.

I benefited from Jessica's gentle and supportive approach while working on my first book, The Balance Plan, where we discussed hormones at length.

      Dr. Drummond and her team are exactly what I was looking for! I’ve tried multiple other business start-up types of programs (some of them more expensive!) that claim to show you the path to success. I know now the reason those programs didn’t work for me – I didn’t know my niche! Dr. Drummond has put together a step-by-step process that focuses on YOU. Right down to the self-care that most entrepreneurs forget to build into their daily lives. She makes you get clear about the first step – WHAT is your niche before moving forward. I was still feeling self-doubt about making this decision, but I felt comfortable reaching out for some one-on-one coaching help because of the environment and sense of community she and her team create in their programs. (I am also in the Integrative Women’s Health Coach Certification Program, as well as, a member of the Vault.) I was stuck due to unique life circumstances and was able to set up a call with Dr. Drummond that changed my mindset and my confidence because she gave me real-world implementable action steps! I can’t wait for this exciting journey ahead of me! Updates to come…

It was really hard for me to figure out how I wanted to narrow down my focus and identify my niche and ideal client- I just kept struggling. But Jessica and Amy were patient and coached me through it and gave me such helpful advice. I’m lucky to have them as my mentors and grateful that I took this course at the early stages in building my business- it got me out of being “stuck” and into taking action! Thanks!

      I have been a successful clinician in private practice for a long time, but stepping into training other clinicians to work with complex medical cases was challenging to say the least. It is also too easy to fall into analysis paralysis and get in your own way no matter how experienced of a business owner you already are! Jessica’s support helped me get over myself and just go and do it - launch my EBV Clinician Training Program that I am now absolutely loving!!! Thank you, Jessica!!! And I know I had to listen because while we are colleague nutritionists and both successful business owners, I often look up to her for her amazing business expertise and savvy and practical approach. Her guidance has been priceless and always so appreciated. I can promise you that any business coaching Jessica puts together will be phenomenal and worth every penny!

It was amazing accountability. My business expanded while I was working with Jessica. I increased my client base and was asked to join a couple of partnerships. All of which increased my monthly income significantly. Michael Robilotto is wonderful. He is easy to communicate with and went above and beyond to assist me with legal documents that were very scary for a newcomer. I highly recommend working with him. His wisdom and experience are sure to help you!

The format worked out great and I really appreciated the ability to pose questions and comments in real time - both in the chat box and via mic. Jessica is extremely knowledgeable and a receptive/responsive instructor. I love the integrative approach, especially since it's already the way I approach working with my patients, but I felt the nutritional aspect was a big gap in my knowledge, which this course has started to fill. I'm very much looking forward to taking further courses from the IWHI.

      Dr. Drummond and her team are exactly what I was looking for! I’ve tried multiple other business start-up types of programs (some of them more expensive!) that claim to show you the path to success. I know now the reason those programs didn’t work for me – I didn’t know my niche! Dr. Drummond has put together a step-by-step process that focuses on YOU. Right down to the self-care that most entrepreneurs forget to build into their daily lives. She makes you get clear about the first step – WHAT is your niche before moving forward. I was still feeling self-doubt about making this decision, but I felt comfortable reaching out for some one-on-one coaching help because of the environment and sense of community she and her team create in their programs. (I am also in the Integrative Women’s Health Coach Certification Program, as well as, a member of the Vault.) I was stuck due to unique life circumstances and was able to set up a call with Dr. Drummond that changed my mindset and my confidence because she gave me real-world implementable action steps! I can’t wait for this exciting journey ahead of me! Updates to come…
