Reviews + Testimonials
Ian’s Food Story Coaching approach is highly recommended not only for nutritionists, but also doctors, NDs, and RDs. He has a way of bringing the most poignant morsels to light and challenges professionals in a way that makes them grow to become much better practitioners. I learned so much from his mentorship that I will carry with me for life.
—Megan
I am absolutely loving this program! I completed my training as a nutritionist and felt there had to be more to the coaching relationship than just providing education and meal plans. Everything I am learning in this program just rings true and is helping me see how I can use my training to actually help people make change. I am learning so much and can’t wait to apply it.

Reviews + Testimonials
Before taking Ian Rubin’s Food Story Coach training, I was feeling burnt out with coaching. After learning, practicing, and implementing the skills I learned from the training, I felt more invigorated and my coaching skills have vastly improved. Coaching has become easier, more enjoyable, and has led to more success with my clients. I transitioned from “information transfer” coaching to “client-centered” coaching and this shift has been a game-changer for my clients and myself. I have received a lot of positive feedback from my clients about how they feel motivated and excited about their health. And I feel more excited, too!
—Katie
Ian is a master when it comes to coaching and most importantly as a coach of coaches. Since I’ve started my business I felt like there was a missing piece of the puzzle, and that was it—to have an experienced, out-of-the-box thinker who can push me to be a better coach and provide a better service to my client.
