Community Involvement

Presented at few "Lunch and Learn" sessions so that the community becomes aware of health coaching.  Not quite a therapist and not a medical practitioner.  These are valuable so community learns what a health coach does and does not do.  The Q&A are quite engaging and I believe more of these info sessions need to be conducted at various companies and hospitals.
