If you’ve never worked with a nutrition coach before, it’s reasonable to wonder what actually happens in a session, especially since “nutrition coaching” can mean very different things depending on who’s offering it.
The Initial Intake
Your first session with Jodi Black runs about an hour and covers a full picture: current eating habits, health history, goals, sleep, stress, and daily patterns. It’s less a lecture and more a genuine assessment of where you’re starting from.
What You Leave With
Rather than a generic meal plan, you get a personalized action plan, specific foods to try or reduce, any suggested supplements, and practical next steps sized to actually fit into your life, not an idealized version of it.
How Follow-Ups Work
Shorter, roughly 30-minute check-ins track what’s working and adjust the plan as needed. This isn’t a one-time consultation, it’s an ongoing partnership that shifts as your habits and needs change.
What This Isn’t
Holistic nutrition coaching is educational and habit-focused, not a substitute for medical nutrition therapy or a diagnosis. If something you’re dealing with needs medical evaluation, that gets flagged directly rather than worked around.
