Summary

Dr. Krista Scott-Dixon reveals the counseling techniques that most nutrition coaches have never learned — and why mastering them matters more than any protocol. She explains why over-optimized clients are often the most fragile, how AI is eroding the critical thinking skills coaches rely on, and what her 700-page textbook Applied Nutrition Coaching and Counseling teaches coaches to do when clients say the unexpected.
