How To Be Legally Protected As A Health Coach or Wellness Entrepreneur
I recall launching my health coaching business a few years ago and being worried if I was doing everything correctly according to the law. I had a client agreement/ contract that was provided by the health coaching school I attended. However, I did not know how to go about creating a LLC, filing my taxes as an entrepreneur, how to write a website Privacy Policy/ Terms & Conditions/ Affiliate terms, how to create a testimonial release for my clients, just to name a few.
By talking to other health coaches, I have noticed a common concern. Some layers are not very familiar with the work of a health coach, or any wellpreneur. So they are not being able to give the needed advice for them to thrive in their business. So I went ahead and did my research and I found out what I think to be the best solution to this legal problem for health coaches and wellness entrepreneurs.
I happily stumbled upon Lisa Fraley’s website. Lisa is not just a lawyer, but she is also a certified health coach. We both graduated from IIN. She created an entire website dedicated to providing not only health coaches, but all wellness coaches and entrepreneurs with legal advice and documents needed to run their business without the worry that they are doing something against the law.
Unfortunately, I did not purchase any of Lisa’s products when I launched my health coaching website because it was only recently that I discovered her services in a search to provide you guys with a solution to your legal worries. However, I so wish I had run into Lisa’s website when I was starting my health coaching business. It would have made my life much easier back then!
The main reason why I decided to share these tools with you guys is because Lisa is a lawyer AND a health coach. She knows exactly what a health coach and a wellpreneur needs because she is one. It reminds me of what I offer to you. I am a designer AND a health coach; so when I design websites, logos, and ebooks for my wellpreneur clients, I understand their business needs because I have the same ones.
