Interview with Health Coach, Tara Hire
1. What made you first get into Health Coaching and what do you hope to offer your clients?
From an early age I learned quickly that health and food are intertwined with psychology, tradition, and our environment. This made me want to learn more and now I have degrees in culinary arts, food science, human nutrition, and holistic nutrition. I am uniquely qualified to tackle health problems from all angles as opposed to just from one.
My mission is to create a space for people to explore their bodies’ needs and give them access to the information necessary to fulfill those needs. Through coaching and support, everyone can make diet and lifestyle changes that will lead to better success in all aspects of their life.
2. I often hear of people going on wellness retreats, why are they so popular?
Wellness retreats are a great way to kick-start a serious lifestyle change. Getting people out of their normal routines, and away from their computers, televisions and other distractions, allows them to open up and be receptive to ideas and information allowing them to make plans for how they want to live their daily life.
3. Tell me about Monehegan Island, what makes this a great place to take a break?
Monhegan is often referred to as a spiritual vortex, making it an amazing place for growth and change. Among the outermost islands of Maine’s central coast, there are few that rival Monhegan for remoteness and scenic wonder. About 65 people live there year-round, most making their living from the sea or catering to the annual invasion of visitors. The unique charm of the village and ruggedness of the coastline has made Monhegan a summer haven for artists and other visitors for more than 100 years.
4. What is the most common mistake people make when they try to lose weight?
The most common mistake people make when trying to lose weight is that they fail to plan. Setting concrete goals and making a detailed plan to meet those goals will make all the difference.
5. Do you have any events/retreats coming up?
This June, Diet-EARTH will be hosting a weekend retreat for anyone seeking to lose weight permanently. The retreat includes, 5 group sessions about nutrition, goal setting, and maintenance; 3 yoga sessions; healthy meals and comfortable rooms. It is going to be an inspiring and fun weekend. There are only 20 spots available so contact me soon before spots fill up. My email is: t_hire@yahoo.com
