Today's email is a little different.
I was recently interviewed for a podcast (which is always a big deal for me, when I step out of my introvert comfort zone), and the episode is now available!
In the podcast episode, which was an extension of this article I wrote a few years ago (on what is the best functional medicine training program), Dr. Salyer and I chatted informally about some of my journey and clinical application of functional medicine.
Key topics covered in the podcast:
- How a talk about hops inspired my interest in functional medicine
- Using a methodical approach to improve outcomes and lower the cost of functional medicine
- Why I prefer a membership model over fee for service visits
- How functional medicine outcome can be different when working in an insurance model vs. cash pay
- The reason I wrote an ebook focused exclusively on choosing the right functional medicine education for clinicians
- Vicarious traumatization and how it can lead to practitioner burnout
- What I use as my "back-up" brain to keep organized
- Some of my personal health journey
- And more!
You can find the full podcast episode on the Apple podcast app here. Or search for Episode 137 of the Catalyst podcast with Dr. Lara Salyer on the podcast platform of your choosing.
