[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Based on your experience, what are the major challenges in the next three years?” open=”no”]The challenges that are currently happening and that I am foreseeing is that women will continue to have unrealistic expectations – i.e. expecting they will receive all the care and tips they desire in the medical system. I see this every week in my practice.
I feel there needs to be more effort around educating women on where to receive the care they desire, and more emphasis on creating a TEAM of care providers from various fields rather than expecting to get everything from the medical system. This sets women up for failure and disappointment while there are SO many options!
[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”What could be a catalyst to address these challenges?” open=”no”]The way in which I am currently tackling this is by offering a Holistic Hormone & Cycle Coaching Certification Training aimed at educating practitioners to be the bridge between the client and the medical system. It’s not either/or. I believe people can be served by holistic practitioners and still get the tests and diagnosis they need in the medical system.
