Unbelievably, we’re finding ourselves at the close of another year. We know 2024 was not without its many challenges. But despite the hurdles, this year has been defined by growth, resilience, and meaningful achievements. None of this would have been possible without the dedication of YourCoach health coaches, the unwavering support of our Industry Partners, and the incredible efforts of their members, clients, and employees.
We wanted to take a moment to share some of those significant highlights from a year filled with growth, impact, and collaboration. Thank you for giving us a platform to share this with you all and for making these many wins possible. We’re looking forward to another fruitful year ahead in our mission to give the global population access to REAL health coaching.
We expanded our partnerships, maintaining an A+ Member Satisfaction Score.
This past year was another productive year for pioneering new partnerships and deepening existing ones. With over 5 million lives covered, we worked with organizations and employers to provide their members, clients and employees REAL health coaching, through YourCoach validated and certified health coaches – serving individuals across the country and helping them achieve their health and wellbeing goals.
Our growing roster of trusted partners demonstrates a shared commitment to the belief that health coaching is key to creating healthier, more productive and happier individuals. As we look to the future, we’re excited to continue offering transformative support, ensuring that all enrolled members thrive in their professional and personal lives. REAL health coaching isn’t just a benefit – it’s an investment in human potential.
REAL Coaches = REAL Outcomes.
As Health Coaching once again made it to CMS’s (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services) Physician Fee Schedule for a 2025 pilot, the importance of this amazing workforce and the potential reimbursements requires even more rigor and outcomes as this profession is key in aiding self-paced tools which require people to be intrinsically motivated already and helping individuals who could use support beyond the doctor’s office. YourCoach has been and continues to be at the forefront of this, and while we are not yet ready to publish our own results in scientific journals, the early observation data is showing significant GAD-7 score reductions (up to 15%), increases in resilience of up to 2x, reduces burnout symptoms and much more.
We also see the uniqueness of every single individual and the variety of personal and family challenges that YourCoach coaches help with. YourCoach often works with individuals navigating significant professional and personal transitions, as many clients seek support when transitioning to a new role, grappling with unclear goals, or feeling uncertain about their fit within the organization. Others face the dual challenges of mental and financial health stress, compounded by a lack of support systems. Low confidence in tackling new tasks or adapting to an unfamiliar environment is a common concern, as is balancing work responsibilities with caregiving demands at home. Additionally, some individuals are recovering from physical injuries or managing a chronic disease while striving to maintain their health and work-life balance. Through personalized guidance and support, YourCoach coaches help clients build clarity, confidence, and resilience to successfully manage these challenges.
We continued to provide new opportunities for health coaches through our Rita & Gene Presman Memorial Scholarship Program and validating more contracted coaches than ever!
Powering up our growing partnerships means contracting with dedicated coaches practicing on our YourCoach platform. This year was another opportunity to validate more passionate coaches, giving them the opportunity to work with clients through our ongoing partnerships. Not only that, but we continued our Rita & Gene Presman Memorial Scholarship program, something we remain very committed to, providing financial and educational support for individuals planning to sit for their National Board Certification. We look forward to continuing to provide more of these opportunities in the new year.
We provided a platform for thought leadership through series’ like Disruptive Dialogues & Coach vs. Code.
Not only are we committed to doing the work, we’re also dedicated to sparking important dialogues that educate around the benefits of REAL health coaching and, importantly, the ways it differs from one-size-fits-all approaches and automated alternatives. We kicked off a social series called Coach vs. Code to spotlight the important differences between REAL human health coaches – who offer empathy, understanding and experience – and their AI counterparts.
We spoke with human resources and benefits leaders at organizations like Microsoft and LabCorp to hear about the state of workplace wellbeing and what changes need to be implemented to shape healthier, happier and more productive employees. One of the key themes we heard was that it’s hard to move the needle when everyone is so used to the status quo. Especially as it relates to workplace wellbeing. Health coaching provides an important solution and we were thrilled to begin exploring the ways leadership can make this more possible.
2024 was an exciting, impactful and important year for us at YourCoach Health. We learned, we helped, we delivered but most importantly we continue to grow. This 150% growth over the past year wouldn’t be possible without the support of our Partners, YourCoach health coaches and the incredible coaching ecosystem that is positioned for even more growth in 2025 and beyond. We are excited for what’s ahead and hope you are too – thank you for joining us in the Health Coaching Revolution!
