5 Coaching Frameworks To Take Back Your Power

Listen to the full episode.

 

At Chris and Filly Functional Medicine, we understand that true healing extends far beyond addressing physical symptoms. Through our comprehensive Ending Body Burnout Method, we've discovered that empowering clients with transformative coaching frameworks creates lasting change in both health and life. These powerful tools help individuals reclaim their personal power, leading to profound healing and enhanced wellbeing.

 

 

Coaching frameworks serve as powerful tools for transformation in the realm of holistic health and integrative medicine. At Chris and Filly Functional Medicine, we've witnessed how these frameworks create awareness, facilitate better decision-making, and ultimately support the healing process. When individuals understand and apply these principles, they develop the capacity to heal naturally and create meaningful change in their lives.

These frameworks aren't just theoretical concepts—they're practical tools that support root cause medicine by addressing the underlying patterns and beliefs that contribute to body burnout. Through our work in functional nutrition and personalised medicine, we've seen how shifting perspective and reclaiming personal power directly impacts physical health outcomes.

 

 

One of the most transformative frameworks we teach involves understanding the difference between above and below the line thinking. This concept forms a cornerstone of our approach to mind body medicine and healing from within. Above the line thinking represents taking responsibility, being curious, and approaching challenges with openness and learning. Below the line thinking involves blame, defensiveness, and victim mentality.

 

In the context of health and wellness, above the line thinking empowers individuals to take ownership of their healing journey. Rather than feeling powerless against symptoms or circumstances, clients learn to ask empowering questions such as "What can I learn from this?" or "How can I respond differently?" This shift in perspective often marks the beginning of profound transformation in both health and life circumstances.

 

Through our Ending Body Burnout Method, we help clients recognise when they're operating below the line and provide tools to shift into more empowering states of mind. This approach supports whole body health by addressing the mental and emotional patterns that contribute to physical symptoms.

 

 

This powerful framework reveals how our patterns show up consistently across all areas of life. At Chris and Filly Functional Medicine, we've observed how the way someone approaches their health often mirrors how they approach relationships, work, and other life areas. This understanding becomes a powerful tool for health optimisation and personal transformation.

 

For example, someone who tends to push through exhaustion in their career likely applies the same pattern to their health, ignoring warning signs and continuing harmful behaviours. Through our holistic wellness approach, we help clients recognise these patterns and develop more sustainable ways of being that support both healing and life satisfaction.

 

This framework supports preventative health by encouraging individuals to examine their approach to self-care, boundaries, and personal responsibility across all life domains. When clients begin to shift these fundamental patterns, they often experience improvements not only in their physical health but also in their relationships, career satisfaction, and overall quality of life.

 

 

This framework addresses the crucial concept of boundaries in both health and life. Through our work in alternative medicine and naturopathic medicine, we've discovered that many health issues stem from poor boundaries—whether with food, relationships, work demands, or self-care practices.

 

At Chris and Filly Functional Medicine, we help clients understand that what they tolerate in their lives directly impacts their health outcomes. This might involve allowing toxic relationships to continue, accepting work environments that create chronic stress, or permitting unhealthy eating patterns to persist.

By applying this framework, clients learn to set healthy boundaries that support their healing journey. This might mean saying no to commitments that drain their energy, establishing clear communication in relationships, or creating non-negotiable self-care practices. These boundary shifts often lead to significant improvements in energy levels, mood, and overall wellbeing.

 

 

This profound framework addresses the psychological principle of projection and its impact on health and relationships. Through our approach to healing naturally, we help clients understand that external frustrations often reflect internal conflicts or unmet needs.

 

In the context of functional nutrition and health optimisation, this framework helps clients recognise how their reactions to others might be highlighting areas where they need to grow or heal. For example, frustration with someone who doesn't take care of their health might reflect the client's own struggle with self-care or their fear of not being able to maintain healthy habits.

 

By exploring these projections, clients often uncover important insights about their own healing journey. This self-awareness supports the healing process by addressing underlying emotional patterns that contribute to physical symptoms and stress-related health issues.

 

 

This framework transforms how we view challenging relationships and interactions. At Chris and Filly Functional Medicine, we teach clients that difficult people often serve as mirrors, highlighting areas where we need to develop patience, compassion, or stronger boundaries.

 

Through our Ending Body Burnout Method, we help clients reframe challenging relationships as opportunities for growth and healing. This shift in perspective reduces stress, improves emotional regulation, and supports overall health and wellness.

 

When clients begin to see annoying people as teachers rather than obstacles, they often experience reduced anxiety, improved relationships, and better stress management—all of which contribute to improved physical health outcomes.

 

 

These coaching frameworks work synergistically with our comprehensive approach to functional medicine and holistic health. By combining these powerful tools with nutritional support, lifestyle modifications, and targeted interventions, clients experience transformation at multiple levels.

The beauty of these frameworks lies in their practical application. They provide concrete tools for navigating daily challenges while supporting the deeper healing work that occurs through our Ending Body Burnout Method.
