Fitness and Nutrition Coach (Remote)

About the Job
At PitaLifts, we believe healthy living shouldn't require giving up your culture, your favorite meals, or your lifestyle.
We're looking for an exceptional Fitness and Nutrition Coach who is passionate about helping women create lasting lifestyle change through education, accountability, and genuine support.
This is an opportunity to coach women through the realities that often make traditional fitness programs difficult to sustain—from busy family schedules and cultural foods to PCOS, pregnancy and postpartum seasons, weight regain, and years of restrictive dieting.
About PitaLifts
PitaLifts helps women lose weight, build confidence, get stronger, and create sustainable habits without giving up the foods and traditions that are important to them.
We primarily serve Hispanic and Latina women across the United States, and cultural understanding is an important part of how we coach.
For many of our clients, food is deeply connected to family, culture, celebrations, and community. Our approach isn't to remove those things. It's to teach clients how to build a healthier lifestyle around them.
Our coaching combines evidence-based nutrition, resistance training, behavior change, accountability, and genuine human connection.
Our goal isn't simply to help someone lose weight. It's to give her the skills and confidence to maintain a healthier lifestyle long term.
Who We're Looking For
We're looking for someone who genuinely cares about people and understands that great coaching goes far beyond sending a meal plan or workout. You should be able to listen to a client's situation, identify what's actually getting in the way, and help her find a realistic solution. You should also be comfortable balancing empathy with accountability. Our clients need coaches who can support them through difficult seasons while still helping them take ownership of the habits and actions within their control.
Because our coaching is fully virtual, strong organization and comfort with technology are essential. You'll use our coaching software throughout the day to communicate with clients, review check-ins, update plans, document progress, manage follow-ups, and oversee your client roster.
The ideal coach is:
Passionate about helping women improve their health
Highly empathetic and culturally aware
Organized and detail-oriented
Dependable and proactive
A confident written and verbal communicator
Comfortable providing both encouragement and accountability
Comfortable coaching through text, video, and virtual meetings
Comfortable navigating technology and learning new software
Capable of managing a large client roster efficiently
Able to manage multiple conversations, tasks, follow-ups, and deadlines
Able to follow established systems, SOPs, and coaching standards
Receptive to feedback and committed to improving as a coach
Our Coaching Specialization
Our coaches primarily work with women seeking sustainable fat loss, improved nutrition, increased strength, and healthier long-term habits.
Many of our clients are Hispanic or Latina women balancing their own health goals with careers, children, partners, extended family, cultural expectations, and busy households.
Clients may come to us while navigating:
PCOS
Pregnancy and postpartum seasons
Perimenopause and menopause
Previous bariatric surgery
Previous use of GLP-1 medications
Family histories of diabetes and other metabolic conditions
Weight loss followed by weight regain
Years of restrictive or yo-yo dieting
Emotional or stress eating
Frequent snacking and cravings
Low confidence around food
All-or-nothing thinking
Gym intimidation
Limited resistance-training experience
Busy work and family schedules
Night-shift or irregular work schedules
Frequent travel
Eating out and social events
Family members with different nutrition needs
Limited time for meal preparation
Traditional Hispanic and Mexican meals
Family gatherings, celebrations, holidays, and food-centered traditions
A strong PitaLifts coach can determine why consistency is difficult for that particular client and help her create a realistic path forward.
Cultural Nutrition
An important part of PitaLifts coaching is helping clients understand that improving their nutrition doesn't mean abandoning their culture.
Our clients may regularly eat foods such as tortillas, rice, beans, tacos, enchiladas, pozole, tamales, carne asada, pan dulce, aguas frescas, and other traditional or family meals.
Our coaches should be comfortable helping clients incorporate familiar foods into balanced nutrition rather than automatically replacing them with stereotypical “diet foods.”
We want our clients to be able to eat with their families, participate in celebrations, enjoy their culture, and still understand portions, protein, calories, meal composition, and overall nutrition.
Spanish fluency is a bonus, but cultural awareness, curiosity, and respect are essential.
