For Those Who Feel Called to Help Others Thrive

You’ve always been that person people turn to, the one who listens, supports, and genuinely wants to make a difference. Helping others comes naturally. It’s part of who you are.

But now, you’re feeling a shift. You don’t just want to help, you want to do it well. You want the skills, the structure, and the confidence to guide people toward real, lasting change.

The problem? Most programs talk theory, not practice. They leave you guessing about what actually works in the real world. And trying to piece it all together on your own can feel like too much.

That’s exactly why this program exists, to turn your passion for helping others into a professional path that creates real results.

Hi, I’m Fiona Cosgrove, Founder of Wellness Coaching Australia

Since 2006, we’ve trained and certified over 6,000 Health and Wellness Coaches - empowering people to create real, lasting change in their own lives and the lives of others.

We’ve seen health professionals, lifestyle coaches, fitness experts, and allied health workers discover a new way to connect with clients…

We’ve watched teachers, carers, and passionate individuals from all walks of life turn their calling into meaningful careers in wellness coaching.

And now - it’s your turn.

This program provides an essential pathway into the world of Health and Wellness Coaching…

Offering a complete, stand-alone introduction to the principles and practice of coaching for wellbeing, our Health and Wellness Coaching Foundations Program gives you the knowledge, structure, and confidence to begin your coaching journey the right way.

This isn’t just about earning a certificate.

It’s about learning how to inspire genuine change — and becoming the coach you’re meant to be.

Let’s take that first step together.

Unlock your potential to guide transformation, for others and yourself.

This programme blends the science of behaviour change with the art of human connection, so you can step confidently into a career (or side-career) that matters.

Whether you’re looking to enhance your professional toolkit or deepen your personal wellbeing journey, this training delivers practical skills, proven frameworks and heartfelt purpose. You’ll learn how to motivate, inspire and support real change - not just talk about it. And you’ll gain the structure and credibility to do it with confidence.

Here’s what you’ll take away:

  • Become confident in guiding meaningful wellness change — for clients, colleagues or yourself.

  • Master evidence-based coaching models that translate into real-world results.

  • Combine movement, mindfulness, nutrition and mindset into an integrated approach that supports whole-person wellbeing.

  • Build your ability to hold motivational conversations, ask powerful questions and create plans that stick.

  • Step into your next level — whether you’re aiming to up-skill in your current role or launch as a certified wellness coach.

Learning outcomes:

  • Apply the principles of health & wellness coaching to inspire real-change, not just give information.

  • Build confidence in motivational conversations, so you can engage and empower with ease.

  • Integrate movement, mindset and nutrition principles effectively — giving you the tools to support holistic wellbeing.

  • Use your coaching skills personally or professionally, enhancing your own health journey or supporting others.

  • Take a meaningful step toward full professional accreditation, opening doors to new opportunities and recognition.

Lauren Conneely, Nutritionist

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

I was drawn studying with Wellness Coaching Australia because above all, it offered a robust and evidence-based approach to coaching on health and wellbeing. The training content has credible backing in research, and it’s easy to gather from the study materials and the facilitation, that the program is well thought out and meticulously designed. There is coaching practice and feedback in abundance, and the course offers a safe space to trial, error, learn and grow. The frameworks and tools I learnt around coaching psychology, understanding stress and passion to profit are contents that I regularly reference as I set up my own coaching business, The Life Balance Movement, and I can’t wait to see where it goes!
