Coach Mike
Mike Potter, MBA, CHT
President, Business Development, Organizational Leadership, Transformational and Motivational Coach
As an exercise and wellness enthusiast, Mike had a vision in the early 1980’s to introduce health into the corporate environment. While training and coaching Stanford Hospital heart transplant recipients, Mike cemented his belief that nutrition and fitness is a necessity to a healthy sustainable lifestyle. His early vision has become more essential now in today’s much unhealthier world. Mike’s desire is to systematize, educate, inspire, motivate, and transform people to simple health improvements and assist them with more ingrained healthful and mindful daily lifestyles in today’s stressful and processed world.
Mike’s passion to move groups of people in a healthy positive direction is evident when he presents. America has become under-nourished and overweight due to the processed foods consumed and stagnant lifestyle. Utilizing his personal experiences, studies, and interactive presentation, Mike can communicate positively and capture individuals’ awareness, enlightening them with a better understanding, and giving them an appreciation for healthy nutrition, physical fitness, wellness, and leadership fundamentals. To build a better community, Mike believes people come first by the, “Grow you – Grow me” philosophy. MPL Groups’ proprietary five core component wellness system PENSF (Physical, Emotional, Nutritional, Spiritual, Financial) is the balance everyone must have to live a healthy lasting lifestyle. “PENSF is our path to empowerment of our health, wealth, and happiness.”
After years working with health care systems and representing health care companies Mike’spassion had pulled on his heart strings long enough for Mike to resume his love and mission to inspire and motivate people to lead sustainable healthy lifestyles. Mike lives and breathes his mission in his own life by practicing meditation, cardiovascular and weight training exercise, and consuming clean fruits, vegetables, and proteins. MPL Groups mission is to motivate people to lead sustainable healthy lifestyles. We consult and coach couples, groups, individuals, and organizations to overcome life’s obstacles and inspire them on how to release the survival mechanism to create a thriving lifestyle. When considering a health and wellness transformation, look to Getwellness to assist and provide a pathway to health; now with two locations in Citrus Heights and Placerville. GetWellnees has also formed a non-profit. GetWellness Foundation, to assist those that are financially challenged.
