[00:00:56] I'm Iris. I'm an entrepreneur, functional hormone specialist, trainer, and coach. And I'm on a mission to share insights, fun facts, and inspiration I discover along the way as I run my business and walk my own path on earth. Here, you'll hear my personal stories. Guest interviews and vulnerable shares from clients and students.

[00:01:18] Most people know me from Instagram where you can find me under add cycle seeds, or they have been a coaching client or student in one of my courses. I'm so grateful. You're here. Let's dive into today's episode. Let's talk about why this training is the perfect next step for you. You're probably here because something inside you knows that you're meant to support others on their hormone and cyclical health journey.

[00:01:43] You just feel it in your bones. You're meant to make an impact in this field. But maybe you're wondering, is this really the training for me? And maybe you're also thinking, can I actually do this? Will this really help me create the career I dream of and is now the right time? If that's you, keep listening, because like I said, today I'm breaking down exactly what you'll get inside of my training, what this certification can do for your career, and most importantly, whether it's right for you.

[00:02:13] And I want to be completely transparent with you about what this training includes, what kind of results you can expect, and who will thrive inside this program. So let me start with why I created this training in the first place. So I've spent the last 10 years diving deep into the world of hormone health, reproductive justice, functional medicine, and holistic healing.

[00:02:39] And through my work as a functional hormone specialist, menstrual health educator and hormone and cycle coach, As well as Orthomolecular Advisor, I have supported hundreds of people on their hormone health journey and one thing became very, very clear to me. The world needs more skilled. knowledgeable and confident cycle coaches.

[00:03:01] I created this program because I saw a massive gap in the way menstrual and hormone health is taught. Too often conventional medicine overlooks the full picture of hormone health and holistic spaces lack scientific depth. Meanwhile, people with menstrual cycles are struggling. They are confused, they are dismissed, they're not getting the answers they deserve.

[00:03:22] And I wanted to change that. Right now, there are so many people struggling with their cycles. People who are dismissed by doctors, stuck on birth control without informed consent, or dealing with unexplained symptoms like period pain, hormonal acne, or even fertility changes. They are desperate for the right support.

[00:03:42] And I know that if you're listening to this, you feel called to be that support. And this is why I created this Globally Recognized Certification Training. To give you the knowledge, the tools, and the confidence to step into this work fully prepared, fully qualified, and fully empowered. Now, let me share what you learn inside the Holistic Hormone and Cycle Coaching training.

[00:04:07] So this training is really designed to give you a deep evidence based and interative understanding of hormone health. You'll learn how to confidently coach clients through hormone health challenges like PMS, PCOS, endometriosis, cycle irregularities, fertility issues, perimenopause, and more. You'll also understand lab testing so you can work alongside medical professionals and help clients advocate for themselves.

[00:04:35] On top of that, you will master the science behind hormone balance. We will be diving deep into the HPG axis, the HPA axis, the HPT axis, metabolism, digestion, nervous system regulation, pelvic health, cyclical wisdom, cyclical physiology and anatomy, and much more, so you can provide full spectrum support. On top of that, we will also look into coaching.

[00:05:04] We will look into nutrition and building protocol plans for clients so that they can be supported step by step. On top of that, you'll also learn how to grow your business as a Holistic Hormone and Cycle Coach to really attract the right clients without feeling salesy or overwhelmed. This training consists of 20 in depth modules covering everything from reproductive anatomy and menstrual cycle to functional nutrition, cycle charting, business strategy, and much more.

[00:05:36] Each module is designed to give you both the science and the holistic perspective, because you need both to truly support your clients. Now, what makes this certification different? Now, maybe you've looked into other cycle coaching programs before, and you might be wondering, what makes this one different?

[00:05:57] So here's what sets this training apart from anything else out there. It's an accredited certification. You'll receive a globally recognized certification, backed by the International Practitioners of Holistic Medicine Board, meaning your expertise is validated in the field.

But if you opt for our VIP version of this training, You're not doing it alone. You'll have ongoing access to our support group and to our alumni group after the course where you can connect, get support, and even share client case studies.

[00:07:26] Now, I want to get real for a second, this training is not for everyone, okay? But if you recognize yourself in the following, this might be exactly what you've been looking for. You are just obsessed with menstrual cycles, hormones, fertility, holistic health, and more. You want an evidence based education, but also the somatic, the psychospiritual, the social justice, and all the other aspects of cyclical health.

[00:07:58] You are someone who feels frustrated by conventional medicine's lack of support for menstrual health, and you really want to offer real solutions and support for people to bridge that gap. And maybe you're done waiting. You're ready to step up, you're ready to serve your community, and build your career as a holistic hormone and cycle coach.

[00:08:18] And if you do feel a full body yes while listening to this, then this training is for you. I know that investing in yourself is a big decision. That's why I've made this training as accessible as possible with flexible payment plans.

And if you have a business, you can also see this as a business investment and even get VAT benefits from this.

[00:09:56] So see this not as a purchase, but as an investment in you, an investment in your future, an investment in Making you able to serve your community better and really help people with their menstrual health. Now, here's what I know. If you've been feeling called to work in cyclical health, if you've been waiting for the right moment to take action, if you've been holding back because maybe a fear of Self doubt or maybe imposter syndrome and wondering like, yeah, who am I to do this?

[00:10:35] Know that there were students who felt the exact same way as you're feeling right now. I even felt this way before I started this work. We all have to start somewhere. And the truth is, there is never a perfect moment to start, but the sooner you step into your purpose, the sooner you can begin to make an impact, the sooner you can begin to support clients and to build a career that you truly want.

[00:11:04] And like I said, you do not have to do it alone. I'm here to guide you every step of the way. So if this speaks to you, enroll now. Your future clients are waiting for you. And I also want to say, If you're feeling this call, but you're also not answering it, you're actually doing your people and your community a disservice.

[00:11:30] Because people are waiting for you. And I really want to mention that this field is not saturated at all. I am fully booked. Some of my students are fully booked. So there is space for you on the market. Maybe you're thinking about, oh, maybe there's already too many coaches out there. Will there be space for me?

[00:11:56] How can I do this in the best way possible? Um, do I have to like, have another job to support me? If you really want to do this, I know there is a space for you in this field. Because I see so many people suffering, and they need your help. And myself and my colleagues, we cannot help everyone. We need you to step up in your community.

[00:12:23] We need you to step up in your unique way to do this work and serve the people who are struggling. And I truly believe that if you are feeling this, if you're feeling it in your bones, if you're like, I want to do this, It's a disservice if you say no, it's a disservice to yourself and your purpose, but it's also a disservice to the people who need you to serve them.

[00:12:50] And I also want to say this is not just about you. Like often we think like, Oh, you know, I have to like be this coach and do this work. In essence, If you really strip it down to the foundation, it's never about you. It's about how you serve your community. It's about the impact that you can have on other people's lives.

[00:13:13] It's about leaving a footprint into someone's life, where they can really feel better. They can heal that period of pain. They can finally fall pregnant and stay pregnant. And become a parent to the child that they've wanted for so many years. You can play a significant role in that. And I feel it's a disservice if you don't do that.

[00:13:40] If you do feel a call, but you don't listen to it. So, if you were on defense, if you were thinking about joining this training, This is your sign. We need more people like you. We need more people who are willing to be the bridge between the holistic world and the medical world. And we need people who can support their clients to navigate both to get the best results so they can live the life that they are deserving to live.

[00:14:19] So they can be in their bodies in a way that is meaningful for them and you can be their guide and to get a Little bit meta here. This is not only going to serve your community This knowledge is also going to serve you because the better that you know Your own body the better you'll be able to take care of yourself and the better you're able to take care of yourself The more leveraged and more capacity you will have to serve others So this is not just a training for you because you like to do a training.

[00:14:57] No, this training will make a lasting, lasting impact. And not only that, you'll also build friendships and collaborations for life. I think one of the most beautiful things about this training that I see as the mentor and the guide of this training is the friendships that I see flourish and bloom between my students.

[00:15:22] Some of my students are in the same countries and they have met up. In real life to study together, to brainstorm together, to meet up together, to share ideas together. And I believe, and I know that these friendships will be forever. So this training is not just, Oh, here is psycho knowledge for you. It is so much more.

[00:15:47] It's a training that can change the course of your life. It's a training that can change your friendships. It's a training that can change your community. And it's even a training that can change your relationships because the things that you'll be learning in this training can be conversation starters in your own relationships, whether it is your female lineage and the healing that needs to happen there, or maybe it is intimacy with your partner, because when you know your body, you can better express yourself to your partner.

[00:16:19] We've had students express that their relationship improves So much because of the wisdom and the knowledge that they've gotten out of this training. So, like I said earlier, this is not just a certification. It is not just a training. It's an immense journey of transformation on every single level of your life.
