Jody Vinson

Certified Health Coach, Personal Trainer, & Business Professional

Welcome to Back to Basics Nutrition and Fitness.

 Are you ready to improve your LIFE ? I often tell clients my only interest is to help them live their best life.  I have been practicing health coaching for 11 years and WOW have things changed. I started this company to help people understand the missing pieces in their health journey. With a background in Sales/Marketing/Business, Group Fitness, and Personal Training I saw people willing to work hard but they were not getting the results they so dearly wanted. It was not for lack of trying in most cases, but the inability  to create a plan and stick to it. We are constantly told we need to work harder to get what we want, where the reality is we need to work smarter. Research shows that most people know what they WANT to do but have difficulty connecting the dots to reach their goals.  Since completing my IIN Health Coach Certification in 2014 a lot has changed in the Health Coaching space. There is now an accrediting body , NBHWC, The National Board for Heath and Wellness Coaching which allows for a board certification to bring all health coaches up to one standard.The National Board for Health & Wellness Coaching (NBHWC) is a leading organization dedicated to advancing the practice of health and wellness coaching. I will be sitting for this test in July 2026.  

Everyone has their own personal story and should have a plan that is unique to their needs. Over the past 10 years there has been so much research done which can often complicate the puzzle of health. The health game can be so overwhelming for some people that they just shut down. I help people create & implement a plan specific to their needs in a way that is manageable. Over the past 10 years health coaching is more focused on habit change and positive psychology rather than education as it was in the past. My program offerings consist of 12 session programs with a single session option available for people who have completed 12 sessions as a client.  I help my clients put their plan into action by meeting on a regular basis via zoom or phone call .  Life moves fast no matter your stage of life so having someone to help you navigate the landscape can be a lifeline. I truly care about the health of the people I am working with. Are you wondering if I can help ? Schedule your FREE  Discovery session today.
