Razi Berry is the Co-Founder of Naturopathic Doctor News & Review (NDNR) and Founder of NaturalPath. At 25 years old, Razi was sick and going from doctor to doctor trying to find out why. No one could help and it got so bad that she decided it was time to fire all of them and start fresh… and that’s how she found homeopathy. Razi started NDNR 14 years ago when she was fed up that there wasn’t an official journal showing case studies of how, and why, homeopathy works. On today’s show, Razi discusses the difference between a community and a movement, where she sees the wellness industry going, and why healing happens within yourself. Key Insights & Aha Moments: *Thank you, Jessica, for your awesome review! *Razi starts her morning every day by hugging a tree in her yard. *Razi used to look at her phone every morning instead and it really set a bad tone for her. *Tree hugging isn’t some ‘woowoo’ thing. There’s actually real science behind this. *Was Razi always like this as a child? How did she get started as a homeopath? *Where does healing really come from? It doesn’t come from the doctor. *Healing happens within. *Why did Razi decide to start NDNR? *With so much information out there, people are very distrustful (and with good reason). It’s more critical than ever to understand what motivates someone into taking action. *Razi is not just creating a community, she’s creating a movement. What’s the difference between creating a community vs. creating a movement? *What’s Razi’s movement about? *Razi discusses some of her fears about Western medicine overtaking traditional/natural medicine. *Razi has a gift for you!!

We want to ‘fit in.’ *When you start getting haters, that’s when you know you’re doing something right. You are living your authentic self unapologetically. *What is Feng Shui? *Amanda has been doing this for 20 years; she can see everything from financial issues to affairs just by looking at your floor plans.

She definitely couldn’t write this book on her own and is so glad she found someone knowledgeable to help her. *Lisa already had a local following, so when she launched her online business and course, and literally heard crickets, it was discouraging. *The road to passive income is not passive. These things take time. *Lisa was constantly searching for her worthiness in her business, but she realized that her business would never fulfill that hole for her. *How do you want to feel every single day? *Lisa hated asking for help and she knew she had to challenge herself on this. *Stop hiding, stop trying to be a perfectionist, and put your work out into the world. *Have the courage to strip down your personal story, question your beliefs, and allow new information to rise above you.

On this week’s show, it’s just yours truly! Hello! Over the years of running a business, there’s something that keeps coming up again and again — there’s a process to all of this. Like baking (something I love to do), you don’t just go in blind and throw in a bunch of ingredients together and hope it works. No way. You follow a recipe and the same should be true with your business. Today, I want to introduce to you and announce my Hustle & Flow Framework™. It’s a recipe for your wellness business. I’ve made a lot of mistakes over the years and there’s no reason why you should go in blind and re-create the same mistakes. This is why I’ve built a framework to help you get those dream clients the smart way! Key Insights & Aha Moments: *I’ve been podcasting for the last 2.5 years! Wow. Time flies! *I try not to re-record something. I believe the first time is the real time. *The cat’s out of the bag. I want to announce the Hustle & Flow Framework™! *After listening to this episode, go to my Facebook page and please, please tell me what your favorite type of cookie is! *I love, love Annmarie Gianni skin care products. *I really enjoy to bake, but I don’t like to cook. Do you have a preference? *I love following the recipes. It’s relaxing and you don’t have to do all the guesswork, which leads to my second point… *When it comes to your business, you gotta follow a recipe! *Don’t reinvent the wheel. *The recipe for success is out there, the only catch is you gotta get out there and do it. *In the Hustle & Flow Framework™, I give you the recipe and help take all that guesswork out! *I learned the hard way through trial and error and there’s no reason why you gotta do the same mistakes too. *You need to hustle to grow your business, there’s no shortcut to that, but you can’t consistently hustle without burning out, which is where flow comes in! *After hundreds and hundreds of client interactions, I know what works and what doesn’t. *Everybody wants to jump directly into the flow and completely skip the hustle part. Doesn’t work that way! *I’m sorry if I sound like a Debbie Downer, but believe me, this is not hard. However, if you’re struggling, you might be following only one section of the recipe and that’s why things aren’t raising for you. *I’m sick of seeing you fail. Don’t overcomplicate it. Just make sure you’re following the full recipe! Mentioned in This Episode: MichelleMcGlade.com Stay tuned for the Hustle & Flow Framework™ Michelle on Facebook Annmarie Gianni products…
Dr. Glenn Livingston is a veteran psychologist and was the longtime CEO of a multi-million dollar consulting firm that serviced several Fortune 500 clients in the food industry. Glenn is also the author of Never Binge Again , which has helped thousands of people reprogram themselves on their relationship with food. On the show, Glenn discusses how health practitioners can market themselves authentically and ethically and dives deep into the psychological reasons why we have food addictions. Key Insights & Aha Moments: *Glenn is so passionate about his line of work that he self-funded a study with over 40,000 participants and today, he will be sharing his personal journey out of obesity. *Both Glenn’s parents were psychologists! It really helped him become an introspective thinker and it inspired him to become a Ph.D., himself. *Glenn has experienced some failures along the way, the worst one was when his business failed, he became $700K in debt and had lost $2 million in the business. *What do practitioners need to be thinking about from a marketing perspective? *You don’t have to lie to your client in order to be effective at marketing. In fact, that’s not even considered ethical marketing. There is a way for you to promote yourself truthfully and authentically. *If you feel icky about marketing, then take a step back and ask yourself, what you believe about your product. Do you believe people out there are suffering and you have the solution? If yes, then market with pride. Go all out! Embrace it! *How can local practitioners best market themselves ethically? *What was Glenn’s journey from having their own practice to marketing consultant to writing the book Never Binge Again ? *Addiction targets the lizard brain, and our lizard brains are not prepared for food addiction. *Is binge eating common among men? *Practitioners can get certified in Glenn’s methodology to further help their clients who are struggling with weight and eating issues. * Never Binge Again isn’t a diet plan, it’s a way to structure your brain so you can regain control and combat impulse!
