 What do you do differently or how is your coaching different from others?  

My movement teaching is based on neuroplasticity (the ability of the nervous system to change) and focuses on retraining the nervous system and movement patterns in order to overcome specific limitations. I also focus on helping my students become the best expert in their body and how their body wants to move so they take full ownership of their body, themselves.

What, according to you, has been the most critical thing that has contributed to your success as a coach?

The single most important thing is consistency in my teaching and my own practice. I practice what I teach daily. Even if what I practice is very effective, the practice would not have much impact on me without being done consistently. Now thanks to my consistent practice, I translate all my experiences into my teaching.

Emily Burian

Emily is a Functional Nutritionist and Yoga Instructor. After receiving her undergrad in Psychology, and Holistic Heath Coaching certification, she earned her M.S in Nutrition Science and Education, and completed The Functional Nutrition Academy. She combines functional medicine and functional movement to offer systematic yet sustainable results to all of her clients by focusing on the person instead of the ailment.

The Top Wellness Coaches wellness coaches

She works with clients 1:1 as well as in her group functional medicine programs. Emily uses her type-a, science mind to help clients reach optimal health because she knows from first hand experience the struggle and frustration of feeling like you are at war with your body.

What do you do differently or how is your coaching different from others?  

Emily’s coaching is different from others in both the conventional and functional space because she abandons template medicine to ensure quality recommendations that are based on each persons unique, bio-individual needs & She makes it her mission to provide her clients with the most un-biased, yet up-to-snuff information so they don’t have to worry about the overwhelm that often follows late night googling of symptoms.

What, according to you, has been the most critical thing that has contributed to your success as a coach?

The single most important thing that contributes to Emily’s success is quality mentorship. Emily has mentored under renowned functional, homeopathic, and naturopathic medicine practitioners since she began practicing. Mentorship has provided Emily with 2000+ hours of experience working with all walks of life. This not only created a well-rounded, holistic approach to treatment, but also provided the results patients were seeking.

My coaching is based on simple principles that every day people can understand and implement into their own lives. Additionally, I support each client to develop a detailed Life Vision that gives them a clear map on how they want to live their life. 

What, according to you, has been the most critical thing that has contributed to your success as a coach?

Consistent and intentional self-education, healing and implementation. The majority of principles I teach are all methods I have used to support myself to be better as I have had a dark past of being overweight, binge drinking, lost and also overcoming a health scare where I had two benign lunges removed from my body. I always remember that my self-work is never done and I have a powerful intrinsic desire to keep learning and growing.

I am on a mission to equip women and LGBTQ+ professionals with transformational tools to lead courageous, healthy, and fulfilling business and personal lives.
