#17 - Coaching as the key to a better health - Eugene Borukhovich - YourCoach.Health

Impulse - Meeting Healthcare Pioneers

How can we support each and every one of us in identifying and pursuing our goals towards a healthier life, in a world where access to care seems to be continuously shrinking?

The solution may lie in health coaching and making it accessible across the globe.

Having witnessed his wife successfully battling breast cancer and becoming a certified health coach, Eugene Borukhovich joined her entrepreneurial adventure at YourCoach.Health in 2020 to co-found the first and only operating system for behavior change powered by an army of helath and wellness coaches.

As a recognized and beloved leader in the healthcare space, Eugene relies on his incredibly diverse experience in the space - as an intra- and entrepreneur, executive, venture builder, advisor and even podcaster - to drive the operations of the platform.

Three years down the line, it regroups more than 3000 certified health coaches, impacting a number of lives higher by several orders of magnitude, on a daily basis.

There is still a long way to go to reach the projected 9 billion people on earth by 2030, but their determination is unquestionable: join the journey and learn all about health coaching in this new episode, the science behind it, and what it can do for you!
