Podcasts about functional medicine coaching

Health coaches provide invaluable support to midlife women navigating various physical and emotional challenges during menopause. Health coaches help manage the symptoms associated with this transitional phase, from hot flashes and sleep disturbances to weight gain and mood swings. The 5 pillars of health that health coaches focus on are nutrition, exercise, stress management, sleep, and community. Many health coaches, like myself, educate women on all stages of menopause and help them understand what's going on in their bodies. We share current science-backed resources to learn from and help them feel empowered to talk to their providers about possible treatment options. We are pivotal in teaching effective stress management techniques, which can alleviate anxiety and mood fluctuations. We provide strategies to improve sleep hygiene, helping women combat insomnia and night sweats that often worsen with hormonal changes. We educate women about nutrition during midlife, navigating a new healthy way of eating to support body composition changes and goals. We help women find their motivation to move daily. Health coaches also fulfill an essential role in emotional support, helping women to articulate their feelings and navigate the psychological aspects of menopause. This support system is crucial for maintaining mental health and fostering a positive self-image during a period that many find challenging. Additionally, health coaches encourage goal setting and provide motivation, making them key partners in maintaining long-term health and preparing for a vibrant, healthy post-menopausal life. Through comprehensive and compassionate care, health coaches empower women to manage menopause confidently and easily, significantly enhancing their quality of life during this significant life stage.My very first episode, 3 years ago, began with someone I very much admire. I'm thrilled to have Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum back today to highlight the role that health coaches play in the menopausal journey. Dr. Sandi trains people to become Functional Medicine health coaches because she believes that growing the health coaching profession will be the solution to combating chronic disease, offering affordable access to functional and lifestyle medicine, and reducing healthcare costs. As founder and CEO of the Functional Medicine Coaching Academy, a collaboration with The Institute for Functional Medicine, Dr. Sandi is a leader in health coaching education. An educator and licensed clinical psychologist for over 35 years, she was a pioneer in blending Functional Medicine principles with positive psychology, cognitive-behavior therapy, and mind-body medicine.

In this episode, I chat with a new friend Elyse Wagner on functional medicine coaching and mindset!   What is her story and why? "I've been shaped by both the Standard American Diet and the Functional Medicine Lifestyle. When I was a kid, I endured taunts like "Obese Elyse" due to my weight. It was clear to me that I needed to begin with my diet. After consulting with a nutritionist, I made a complete 180 in my eating habits. In just two months, I shed 50 pounds, my skin cleared up, my hair started to flourish, and I had an epiphany: Food Is Medicine! This epiphany set me on my life's path and purpose. Armed with an undergraduate degree in Nutrition and Dietetics, I came to realize that what I was learning in school didn't quite align with my values or personal journey. It always baffled me why, in this age of readily available information, we struggle to make necessary changes. As it turns out, food, nutrition, and eating are only a part of the puzzle when it comes to overall well-being. My journey continued as I pursued dual master's degrees in nutrition and clinical health psychology. Along the way, I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease, and it became apparent how challenging it can be to make meaningful health changes. However, I firmly believed that it shouldn't be this hard. I made a commitment to heal myself through nourishing whole foods and a positive mindset, with the intention of then helping others do the same. Fast forward 15 years, and I've played a pivotal role in creating the Functional Medicine Coaching Academy. Our one-year, online program equips health coaches to bridge the gap between healthcare providers and patients, empowering people to improve their health and well-being. My passion lies in empowering individuals to take charge of their health, nurturing a world where everyone becomes the CEO of their own well-being."   Instagram:  @functionalmedcoach and @elyse_wagner Linkedin:  https://www.linkedin.com/in/elyse-wagner-ms-cn-lmhca-80370419/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/functional-medicine-coaching-academy-inc-/ YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/c/FunctionalMedicineCoachingAcademy  

In this episode, we chat with a Certified Functional Medicine Nutrition Counselor, Nationally Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach, Fox 21 Fitness & Nutrition Expert, and fierce industry advocate– Hally Brooke. What started as pure personal training has morphed over the years into a full wellness and nutrition practice. Hally has learned from years of education and experience working with clients that simply doing squats isn't going to cut it when it comes to being fully well. From that experience, she has built a thriving Functional Medicine Coaching practice that works with clients in ALL the key areas of wellness including movement, nutrition, mindset, resilience, relationships, and self-care. Her life mission is to encourage, empower and free women by teaching healing. Whether as clients, through speaking events, or personally with the people she encounters, she lives this mission day in and day out.  

Aurora was 35, married with 4 young kids under the age of 7 when the doctors diagnosed her vision issue as optic neuritis related to Multiple Sclerosis (MS). They said her sight would never return, and based on the location of 10 lesions on her brain, the incurable, progressive disease would confine her to a wheelchair within five years. Aurora was devastated but soon found herself on a journey with God and forever changed.        In this episode Aurora shares: The first signs and the shock of seeing 10 lesions on her MRI  Getting the news from top local physicians The turning point from fear and hopelessness to faith in Go God leading her on a journey to healing through promptings and people An impactful moment from her past would lead her to set the goal of one triathlon (while she still had function) Seeing results from holistic and functional medicine providers that she didn't know were possible The joy of receiving the call that her MS lesions completely disappeared Finding a new love of a sport and completing over 51 triathlons(!) Her passion as a triathlete becomes a platform where she could minister to others       "I have come that they might have life, and have it in abundance." -John 10:10     More about Aurora: Through God's guidance, Aurora dove into functional medicine and healing the root cause of where her symptoms were coming from. She has never been on medications for MS, she uses food as her medicine and lifestyle changes have saved her life from one with MS.  She healed her body from MS and is healthier now than she was before her diagnosis. After the first year of her lifestyle changes, her vision came back better than before, after being blind for over a month and she became physically active for the first time. She has been racing triathlons for 10 years, has been a sponsored triathlete and has raced over 51 triathlons including Half Ironman distances. Her story has been featured in Shape Magazine, Latina Magazine, Fox News, ABC LA and various TV Shows. She is a graduate of the Institute for Functional Medicine Coaching program, a coach, writer and speaker, and is passionate about sharing her story to give others inspiration and hope and teach them how the body can heal through diet and lifestyle changes. She is currently working in real estate with her husband in California.     Disclaimer: While I make every effort to broadcast accurate information (both medical and Biblical), I am still learning. Medicine (holistic and traditional) is a constantly changing science and art. I recommend prayer as well as consulting with multiple physicians when faced with a health crisis. This podcast was created to share one's faith journey, not to prescribe medical treatment.   To contact Aurora through her facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/auroracolello   A few other places to find Aurora's story: https://thecoastnews.com/multiple-sclerosis-survivor-triathlete-pushes-beyond-limits/ https://www.facebook.com/auroracolello/videos/802353319970488 https://www.naturalnews.com/046948_multiple_sclerosis_holistic_medicine_triathlete.html?fbclid=IwAR0AjauWK2PVCdMfl1Q4UnRe_y_ppD_l2C056dQ9Qjypv7cZAd_U0zNZ3pg

Hally Brooke is the Founder & CEO of Live Nourished, she is a Certified Functional Medicine Nutrition Counselor, Nationally Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach, Fox 21 Fitness & Nutrition Expert, and a fierce industry advocate. Her self-education in nutrition and exercise began in 2014 when she battled and overcame her own serious GI issues including IBS and SIBO. Through her own process of finding wholeness, health and healing for herself, as well as her education and experience with her clients, Hally has learned that living a nourished life takes more than just “eating healthy” or working out. Hally teaches that “true health” is a blend of not only physical health, but also mental, emotional & spiritual wellbeing. And that sometimes “health” looks like enjoying a burger instead of a salad, or taking a nap instead of going on a run. From that experience, she has built a thriving Functional Medicine Coaching practice that works with clients in ALL the key areas of wellness including movement, nutrition, mindset, resilience, relationships, and self-care. Her life mission is to encourage, and empower women by teaching healing. Whether as clients, through speaking events, business coaching, or personally with the people she encounters, she lives and breathes this mission day in and day out. In this episode we discussed: the difference between functional medicine and western medicine and why it matters to you and your business how your gut impacts your energy and ability to work at your best the concept of “always enough and always growing” why healthy business owners make more money over time the importance of not just health, but well being too (and the difference between them) Connect with Hally: https://www.livenourishedcoaching.com/   Thank you for listening!

The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, discussing wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. Today we are joined by Hally Brooke, the Founder & CEO of Live Nourished. Hally works with her clients to heal their relationship with food and their bodies, teach them how to use food as medicine, and live a well-rounded life. She provides some incredible tips on how to shift our focus to living a nourished life in every aspect - food, water, play, joy, prayer, etc. and then dives into her four categories of food. Hally explains how our body uses food as medicine and how elimination diets are not an end-all-be-all. She also talks about how our body reacts to food that we are eating and what information it is getting from the food we are fueling it with. Tune into this empowering episode to better understand how to live a nourished life.IN THIS EPISODE:●   [6:08] Hally shares her background and how she got to where she is today. ●   [10:30] What does Hally mean when she says “Live Nourished”?●   [12:28] How does Hally help clients learn that eating a burger can actually be more nourishing than a salad?●   [18:25] Overview of the four categories of food.●   [20:57] How do we think about the energy of foods?●   [27:56] How does our food inform the body what actions to take? ●   [35:05] How do we use food as medicine? ●   [41:55] How do we manage the relationship with food and connection?●   [53:11] New Year's Resolutions are typically given up by Mid-February. What tips would Hally give to people ready to throw their goals away?  ●   [53:45] What is the right way to approach goals?KEY TAKEAWAYS:●   When you are making food decisions, use insourcing! The apps and diets out there are not the rules; listening to your body is the only rule and guideline that you need to follow. Sometimes we need to use food as medicine, but it is not a long-term plan; elimination should be used as healing. ●   Our brains are hardwired to avoid failure. It's safer for our brain to have us quit than to see the potential of failure.  ●   Take a step back and get curious about your habits. Are you eating ice cream every night because you want it, and it's a nourishing behavior with your family and brings joy? Or are you eating it because it's just something you do? The goal is to make a nourishing choice 100% of the time.  ●   If your goals and values are not in alignment, the goal will not become a reality. Understanding why your goals and values are important to you is when the magic happens and what keeps you going.QUOTES: “To live nourished is to treat me like I love me, to eat vegetables, to drink water, to move, to play, to pray, to rest, to refresh, to enjoy, to have fun, to laugh, basically living nourished is a holistic, whole person, encompassing well being. It's mental, emotional, and physical. It's nutrition, exercise, relationship health, health, and the way we think about ourselves, and it's the idea that sometimes actually eating a burger and fries is a more nourishing meal than eating a salad. Sometimes taking a nap is a more nourishing choice than going for a run or doing a workout.” - Hally Brooke“Living Nourished is this beautiful way to honor our bodies as these incredible, miraculous things that they are and say we're actually really complex. Doing a diet is not living nourished; eating good whole foods is living nourished, honoring my friends' birthday party, and having a piece of cake at that birthday party is actually living nourished.” - Hally Brooke  “Food is the fastest way to heal ourselves or the slowest way to kill ourselves.” - Hally Brooke“We can shift our perspective from my fat is bad, and I hate it, and I hate my body, to actually, I'm really grateful for my fat because my fat is storing energy for when I need it most. And I can let my body know that I'm safe and that I don't need that extra energy right now because I'm going to give it the energy that it needs when it needs it. And so we can thank that fat, and we can release it from its job, and we can let it go.” - Hally Brooke “This is where the culture of wellness is doing everybody such a disservice because we're taught that this is the antithesis of health, that food as connection…is such a problem.” - Jenn TrepeckRESOURCES:Become A Member of Salad with a Side of FriesJenn's Free Menu PlanA Salad With a Side of FriesA Salad With a Side of Fries InstagramGUEST RESOURCES: Live Nourished Coaching Website --> Schedule a free consultHally Brooke Instagram Live Nourished Coaching Instagram Live Nourished Coaching Facebook GroupLive Nourished Coaching FacebookGUEST BIO:Hally Brooke is the Founder & CEO of Live Nourished; she is a Certified Functional Medicine Nutrition Counselor, Nationally Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach, Fox 21 Fitness & Nutrition Expert, and fierce industry advocate.What started as pure personal training has morphed over the years into a full functional medicine wellness and nutrition practice.

Join our Business Ninja Kelsey, together with the Co-Founder and Chief Wellness Officer of Functional Medicine Coaching Academy, Elyse Wagner, as they talk about the importance of Health and Wellness Coaching. What is it like to be helped by a Health Coach? The conventional system has grown so dependent on pharma, on prescribing away every symptom, that some may have forgotten how to restore health: by addressing and resolving the root cause of illness, not just the symptoms. Led by their partner, The Institute for Functional Medicine—the global leaders in Functional Medicine—this revolution is about reorienting the healthcare system toward identifying the complexity of disease. Functional Medicine is an individualized, patient-centered, science-based approach to healthcare that looks beyond symptom resolution to identify why illness occurs and address those root causes to restore health. While conventional medicine focuses on using medication to reduce symptoms, Functional Medicine empowers patients and practitioners to work together to resolve the complex underlying causes of disease and promote optimal wellness through diet and lifestyle change. You'll also get an insider's perspective on what goes into helping others achieve these goals, as well as hear how rewarding it can feel for those that want to make a difference. Learn more about them and visit their website today at https://functionalmedicinecoaching.orgDo you want to be interviewed for your business?Schedule time with us, and we'll create a podcast like this for your business:  https://www.WriteForMe.io/-----https://www.facebook.com/writeforme.iohttps://www.instagram.com/writeforme.io/https://twitter.com/writeformeiohttps://www.linkedin.com/company/writ...https://www.pinterest.com/andysteuer/Want to be interviewed on our Business Ninjas podcast?

In today's podcast we talk about functional medicine health coaching with Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum, otherwise known as Dr. Sandi [@drsandi].     Dr. Sandi trains people to become health coaches because she believes that growing the health coaching profession will be the solution to combating chronic disease and reducing healthcare costs.     She's the Founder and CEO of the Functional Medicine Coaching Academy, a collaboration with The Institute for Functional Medicine. An educator and licensed clinical psychologist for over 40 years, she's the author of How to Become a Health Coach, Functional Medicine Coaching, and Stop Panic Attacks in 10 Easy Steps.    In the conventional mental health world you often get a diagnosis for anxiety, you go see a therapist and the message you get is you are broken, you have something wrong with you and you need to be fixed.      When you look at a personalized approach, which is where medicine is going in the future (personalized precision), you see a design of a protocol that fits specifically for you.   There is a landmark study, a mindfulness-based stress reduction approach, featured in the Journal of the American Medical Association, where a group of around 240 people diagnosed with anxiety were separated into two groups. Group A got the conventional medication, a generic version of Lexapro and Group B got the mindfulness-based stress reduction approach. The results showed that both groups reported significant improvements with their anxiety disorder.     This is good news as it shows that not everybody that suffers from anxiety needs an anti-anxiety medication, which could be really hard to withdraw from.    However, the mindfulness-based reduction approach is not for everybody. In the study they recommended 40 minutes a day which could not fit everyone's schedule. Here is where a coach comes in. A coach could dive into what is going to work specifically for you. Maybe it could start with a one-minute walk meditation or listening to some music for a set amount of time daily.    The personalized strategies must be based on what works for each individual based on his preferences and time availability. Sometimes even realizing we need help is difficult for us as there is so much stigma to asking for help. So coaches create a safe and secure environment where people can get unconditional compassionate support. There are even anonymous support communities created by coaches so people feel safe sharing their experiences with others going through the same problems.    Fortunately, nowadays there are health coaches specializing in most health issues helping people overcome these.     We also could feel that we need to take big steps to get better and could feel overwhelmed by this. Here health coaches can help people identify the little incremental steps that you can take to start feeling better from the start, little by little, without being overwhelmed by a big change in your life. For example, when a doctor says, “you need to lose weight” or “you need to start exercising” Well, what do you do with that? A health coach could show you the small changes you can do in your daily routine to incorporate physical activity in small incremental steps and help you be accountable for those small changes.    A coach is somebody who helps people change when change is hard. By having deep conversations on what really matters to you then you decide how and when or if you want to change. Finding the right coach starts with analyzing what you need and who you connect with because it's about a relationship between two people or if it's a group, a relationship with the people in that group and the coach as the facilitator.        Functional medicine health coaches help people looks at their story, they help with the discovery process and get to the root of what is causing their specific health issue. A health coach is someone who will guide you and show you how to access these tools because in this approach it's not one size fits all.    We are humans and we will have health issues at some point in our lives, the important thing is to think about how are we going to support ourselves through that, and I talk a lot about this in my book, Master Your Stress Reset Your Health (https://doctordoni.com/master-your-stress/): how do we choose self-care, how do we choose to be supported in our process and I really see that a health coach is a great way to support your journey to heal. I have health coaches in my practice helping patients and see what a difference they make.    If you want to reach out to Dr. Sandi and learn how she can help you, please check out her website: https://www.functionalmedicinecoaching.org or her Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drsandi     If you want to learn more about your specific stress type and how you can start mastering stress and anxiety based on how it affects you as an individual, you can do my Stress Type Quiz for free here: https://doctordoni.com/quiz/stress-quiz/     You can also find my free masterclass on how to address the root causes of anxiety here: https://doctordoni.com/transformanxiety     Or you can dive deep into really becoming your own Stress Master by reading my new book Master Your Stress Reset Your Health: https://doctordoni.com/master-your-stress/     You can also reach out to me to set up a one-on-one appointment if you prefer here: https://doctordoni.com/work-with-me/     We're here to help you!    Connect with Dr. Doni:    Facebook HTTPS://FACEBOOK.COM/DRDONIWILSON   Instagram HTTPS://INSTAGRAM.COM/DRDONIWILSON   YouTube HTTPS://YOUTUBE.COM/USER/DONIWILSONND   Weekly Wellness Wisdom Newsletter: HTTPS://DOCTORDONI.COM/WWW     -   Books and Resources:    Order My New Book: https://www.amazon.com/Master-Your-Stress-Reset-Health/dp/1953295576   Stress Warrior Book (FREE)  HTTPS://DOCTORDONI.COM/STRESSWARRIOR      Stress Warrior Stress Resiliency Facebook Group (FREE)  HTTPS://FACEBOOK.COM/GROUPS/STRESSWARRIOR     7-day Stress Reset (FREE)  HTTPS://DOCTORDONI.COM/STRESS-RESET     HPV & Cervical Dysplasia Guide (FREE)  HTTPS://DOCTORDONI.COM/HPV-AND-CERVICAL-DYSPLASIA-GUIDE/     -   Personalized Solutions:    If you'd like to meet with Dr. Doni one-on-one for your health, request a Health Breakthrough Session: HTTPS://DOCTORDONI.COM/BREAKTHROUGH     To get an idea of more comprehensive options, read about Dr. Doni's Signature Consultation Programs: HTTPS://DOCTORDONI.COM/SERVICES   Disclosure: Some of the links in this post are product links and affiliate links and if you go through them to make a purchase I will earn a commission at no cost to you.

Episode 210 of my Curate Your Health Podcast is out! Link below. Hally Brooke is here today to discuss her journey with gut health and brain fog. She discovered by figuring out what foods worked for her, she was able to balance her emotions better and think straight. By being more thoughtful and mindful with the way food made her feel, she was able to heal her gut health. She mentions that by paying attention to what her body needed, she was able to feel better, and what helps one person, may not help another.  Hally Brooke is the Founder & CEO of Live Nourished, she is a Certified Functional Medicine Nutrition Counselor, Nationally Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach, Fox 21 Fitness & Nutrition Expert, and a fierce industry advocate. Her self-education in nutrition and exercise began in 2014 when she battled and overcame her own serious GI issues including IBS and SIBO. Through her own process of finding wholeness, health and healing for herself, as well as her education and experience with her clients, Hally has learned that living a nourished life takes more than just “eating healthy” or working out. Hally teaches that “true health” is a blend of not only physical health, but also mental, emotional & spiritual wellbeing. And that sometimes “health” looks like enjoying a burger instead of a salad, or taking a nap instead of going on a run. From that experience, she has built a thriving Functional Medicine Coaching practice that works with clients in ALL the key areas of wellness including movement, nutrition, mindset, resilience, relationships, and self-care. Her life mission is to encourage, empower and free women by teaching healing. Whether as clients, through speaking events, business coaching, or personally with the people she encounters, she lives and breathes this mission day in and day out.

I cannot wait to start sharing all things leadership with you.   We have a self-professed lifelong learner on the show today, Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum work has been centered around education and innovation since the very beginning of her career. She's the author of Functional Medicine Coaching: How to Be Part the Movement That's Transforming Healthcare. As the founder and CEO of the Functional Medicine Coaching Academy, but before we get a chance to speak with Sandra, it's The Leadership Hacker News.   The Leadership Hacker News   Steve Rush: Diversity and inclusion is an essential part of organization's growing and taking advantage of what diversity brings. However, many CEOs who are faced with real crisis individually often don't face into the fact that they might need to be more open about who they really are. A perfect example of this was CEO of insurance broker Bradley & Parker. Wayne Nowland, now Wynne Nowland has recently gone through gender transition and now claims to be much more at peace with themselves.   Nowland started working at the medium sized firm in Melville, New York in 1986 and held several senior positions before coming CEO and chain 2017, just a few months before her transition. During those years, Nowland buried herself in work to avoid dealing with her two personas. At work, she was Wayne, but inside and occasionally around a selected group of close friends, she was Wynne. Nowland told CNBC Make It. “One of my friends said that my work was my mistress, because it was the way for me to pour a lot of my frustration and resources into getting things done. So, from that standpoint, I guess it had some value.” From Nowland, earliest memory, she knew she was different, but it took her a long time to label it. And it wasn't until a few weeks after her 56th birthday in 2017 and four months after being promoted to CEO, she had an epiphany, an awakening and decided she couldn't hide her true self any longer.   Nowland sent an email to her 70-person, strong staff telling them that she had made a decision to transition her agenda. The note she wrote started, “I plan to begin working as Wynne starting this morning.” Nowland also wrote emails to corporate clients and board members making it clear that she plans to continue to lead the firm in a way she had done so for 30 years and the next time Nowland arrived at work, she was wearing a woman's pantsuit, pearl and a pair of Tiffany earrings and full makeup. Her colleagues greeted her with open arms that day. She goes on to say, I did not fully come out until I came out at work. Nowland 59, now feels more at peace and more ease with the work in her personal life and at home. She goes on to tell CNBC Make It.   “What I realized was that, unless you want to lead your life calculating every minute of the day, there's a really no way to lead dual existences. Mentally you can, but outwardly, the communities are still too small.”   My advice to anybody is consistent. I think it's important to avail yourself to the professionals, to get some help and to help guide you through what could be a really confusing time. But once you've come to the conclusion, that's what you are, who you are, don't delay. So, whatever your diversity, whatever your challenge or whatever your two personas maybe, don't wait. And what a great lesson it is to us all, to be true to ourselves, whatever we are, and to make sure that we are really thoughtful about the journeys that not only we're taking, but people around us maybe taking unconsciously and unbeknown to ourselves. So, congratulations, Wynne and congratulations on celebrating it publicly. That's been The Leadership Hacker News. Please get in touch with us, if you have any stories or insights that you'd like our listeners to hear.   Start of Podcast   Steve Rush: On the show today is Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum. She is the founder and CEO of the Functional Medicine Coaching Academy. She's a clinical psychologist with over 35 years' experience and an expert in positive psychology and mind-body medicine. She's also the author of The Functional Medicine Coaching, Stop Panic Attacks in 10 Easy Steps and How to Give Clients the Skills to Stop Panic Attacks. Sandra, welcome to the show.   Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum: Thank you. It is a pleasure to be here.   Steve Rush: Now you have a really fascinating backstory that's caused you to pivot at almost retirement age, but before we get to that, perhaps you can give us a summary of how you've arrived at doing what you've done?   Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum: Sure. Well, where I am now is not where I began. I always thought I would be a school teacher and that's what I studied in college. I was teaching children with learning disabilities and other special needs. This was in the early seventies and I became quite interested in the, not only the stress that they were experiencing in their lives, but their parents as well. And I started leading groups for parents. They were like support groups and teaching them strategies for managing their children at home. And so, at the time I was teaching like breathing strategies and this was pretty radical and unheard of. This idea that by stopping and taking some breaths, you can calm yourself. It would increase your ability to learn more effectively. And I then went on and got my doctorate in clinical psychology and was always a renegade. At the time the world of psychology, psychotherapy, the psychoanalytic, and I was interested in people getting well now and moving forward, not spending years analyzing their childhood.   And so, I was blending these mind body medicine techniques, where you're using breathing or using muscle relaxation, use of imagery. And combining that with having people really stop and reflect on what they're saying to their selves, their self-talk. This catastrophizing, and so that comes from the world of cognitive behavioral therapy. I blended that with something else that didn't have a name at the time, and that was positive psychology, which is where you look at what's right with the person and not what's wrong with them. And you look at their key strengths. So, I've been putting all that together and found that not only were the people I were working with getting better, and these were people, I was a health psychologist. So, these were people who had a chronic health issues, or they had severe anxiety. And this was something that I knew quite well.   I had severe panic attacks when I was in my twenties. I also had a serious addiction to sugar where I would really binge on bags of cookies and all kinds of sugary snacks and not realizing how unhealthy I was becoming. I was not obese, but I was particularly unhealthy with thyroid issues, for example. And also, didn't realize that I had had years and years of antibiotics. And when I started studying functional medicine and that was around 2009/2010. I was fascinating with this idea that you could dig down to the root cause and you could develop a timeline for an individual and see, Whoa, it was that history of all the antibiotics, or maybe there was something traumatic that happened in childhood. And for me, that was losing my father when I was nine years old. So, you combine all those things and then you see what were the triggers and what was the perpetuator of not feeling well, was all the years that my diet was pretty out of whack.   So, as I started making changes in my diet. I started exercising, enjoying movement throughout the day. I was getting better as well. So, when I was 65, yes, I decided I was not going to retire because I had a huge vision and purpose in my life. I wanted to take all of these strategies that I knew worked so well and teach them to health coaches because health coaches are the ones who would be really the key to helping people to create a wellness, to live better lives. So, I approached The Institute for Functional Medicine, that's IFM, were I had trained in functional medicine and they were quite interested in partnering and creating this school to train health coaches. So, what we do now is, we train health coaches in all the things that I hah practice and the functional medicine principles that are taught through the Institute for Functional Medicine.   Steve Rush: Really fascinating. There's a couple of things there that really struck a chord to me. The whole philosophy that body and our mind are so powerful, and so intrinsically linked to our wellbeing. I think for most people, we still really take that for granted. I just wondered what your thoughts were?   Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum: Oh, absolutely. So, we don't realize that if we, let's say, we're not feeling well, maybe we have a headache. And if we tell ourselves that this is the worst thing, I can't stand this, this pain is awful. I'm always going to be suffering this way. Then that's going to create a stress response. We're actually tightening those muscles as we think those thoughts. But if we are telling ourselves, okay, if I just breathe? If I soften my forehead, if I imagine something cool on my forehead, back of my neck, that, you know, soon will feel better. And low and behold it does. And so, if we are scaring ourselves with something, if we are worried, if we are telling ourselves, it'll never get better, I'm always going to feel this way. Or the world will always be this way as we are all experiencing now. Then that's going to lead to some of our changes in our health, our guts and our brain are intimately connected. Think of those like sinus twins, they are always traveling together and inseparable.   Steve Rush: I guess that's, what's been referred to as psychosomatic?   Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum: It was, but that term tended to be used by, for example, the psychiatric community in a pejorative way, they would tell people, Oh, it's all in your mind. It's nothing. Well, it is something. Your mind is creating. It's not like you're making it up. They often things psychosomatic as well, it's not real. This person is just making it up, it's all in their mind, but if it's in the mind and the body.   Steve Rush: Got it, that makes loads of sense. Now, I guess also the other thing that struck a chord when you were talking is this whole passion for teaching and education. Has really been a driving force for when people start to retire, you've taken it another step forward, and it's now become your life and work now at The Functional Medicine Coaching Academy. Tell us a bit about the epiphany that led to creating an organization at the age of 65?   Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum: Yes, well first and foremost, I'm very, very active and I like being around people much younger than I am. And I have this mission to want to see a health coach in every medical office and to furthest, to be the norm. And so, I know that when people are not sitting around in retirement and bored or losing interest, as the curiosity in the world, then that's when people tend to decline quite rapidly. For me, I saw my mother succumb to Alzheimer's disease, and I want to stay vibrant. I want to be young at heart. And so, when you have a strong mission and a purpose, that is what happens. At our school, which is FMCA, Functional Medicine Coaching Academy. We have a significant number of students. These learners love learning, and they are stepping out of retirement. A lot of former school teachers, for example, some retired physicians and they are studying with us and it's what's keeping them vibrant. They're so excited. They're not doing it to build a career as our younger students are, they're doing it because they love the content, they're using it personally, or with their families. And they're going out, often volunteering, or they're not again building a career, but they are going out and serving. And that is how they are getting paid. And they're quite, quite happy doing that. And so that for me, is just having this strong, strong mission to teach. And so, in a sense, I came back to my roots. I started wanting to be a teacher and now I'm a teacher again.   Steve Rush: That's amazing. I love it. So, what's the difference between the functional medicine doctor and a functional medicine coach?   Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum: So, a functional medicine doctor is the medical experts. They went to medical school; they can diagnose the condition. They can draw a big treatment plan for that condition. A coach is the expert in behavior change. So, they are not the medical person, or they are not the dietician. But they work on a team. They refer to those individuals and we need it all. And so, what the coach does is to listen, their expertise is in listening with people and asking the right types of questions so that somebody will become inspired to change how they're living their life. The coach is asking questions like, what do you want your health score? What brings you the most joy? And then they help them set goals that are achievable. And they're often very tiny once. And they celebrate with that person and they call, they also hold that individual accountable for call me and let me know how it's going, or we're going to talk about this again when we meet next week. So, this movement is growing and I'm really saying that I'm going to fulfill my mission of seeing a coach in every office. We have coaches who are increasingly getting hired by practices in the UK. The national health service is starting to hire coaches in the United States through the payer system here, we have a pathway for coaches to build directly, that's coming in the future. We're on that road right now. And there's, right now though, use of coaches where they can lead group visits, for example. They can be one who is in the office, monitoring all that data that's coming in from remote patient monitoring devices. Like your watch, for example, your blood glucose monitor. And so, the coach is the one who is working with that expert with that functional medicine doctor.   Steve Rush: Yeah, it's really fascinating, isn't it? And I suspect the current environment that we've been in and the pandemic has seen a real upsurge in people wanting to access health coaches. What's been your experience during the pandemic. And as it's evolved over the last six to twelve months?   Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum: A thousand percent. People are interested in health, like never before. They are wanting to work with health coaches. Also, the health care workers are exhausted and burned out and they have their hands full with acute care. They are often not able to take the time with people who have these chronic medical conditions, like type two diabetes. And that's what the health coach can do, and they do it remotely. They do it over platforms like Zoom, and they can have people that are working with all over the world. They can work with people in groups, which is a very, very effective model that is also growing because it makes it affordable and more people are accepting health coaches. There's a lot of major companies that are hiring health coaches. And there's a group that unfortunately suffering right now. And those are those people who are what we call the lawn haulers from COVID, and they are still having symptoms often months later. And so, the coaches who are trained in this functional medicine approach to have a broad perspective to look at how to help somebody with the symptoms that are not dissipating months and months after they first got sick   Steve Rush: And to help your new health coaches along the way. There's a couple of key tenants that I noticed that really key to helping the end client get better physically and mentally well. And the first one is that what you call character strengths. And I wondered why you call them the building blocks for wellbeing?   Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum: This comes from the field of positive psychology. So, this is a field of study that looks at what's right with somebody, what makes a life worth living? Why do people flourish? This comes from the work of Martin Seligman and other researchers where they came up with this concept that we call PERMA, P-E-R-M-A. This acronym stands for. P is positive emotion. We all need to have experiences of joy in our life. We need the E, which is engagement or flow. We need to be focused on something that is truly like putting us in the state of complete mindfulness of the moment or enjoying something or deeply moved by something, the R's relationships, we need meaningful relationships. The M is meaning, we need meaning and purpose in our lives, whether that's a big mission or our meaning and purposes, our family, and nurturing our family. And the A finally is achievement. Whether that's big or small, we got up and we made our bed. Wow, that's an achievement. So how do we get to these? We get to them through our character strengths. Why are they the building blocks? These are the traits that we all have, and the researchers have identified 24 of them. Why 24? Well, they took years and years. And they went through all of the research literature, all of the teachings of philosophy, psychology, religions, various cultures around the world and found that no matter how old or how young you were, no matter where you lived in the world. There were these 24 traits that kept coming up again and again, and those are what we call character strengths. So, when somebody is asked, what are your strengths? So, they tend to think of them as the ones that are skills like, Oh, I'm good at playing the piano.   I'm good at playing sports. Well, this is what you learned. These are skills, but how do you get good at playing the piano? Oh, you need to curiosity. You need to have a love of learning to get you to the piano. Well, how do you master that? Well, you need to keep practicing and that's the strength of self-regulation. And so, we put all these together. Appreciation of beauty and excellence. You have to be able to say, well that sound is lovely. This one is discordant and jarring. And so, all of these character strengths. All these 24 bring you to achieve great things to have a life well lived. And so, some of these strengths are what we call in a cluster. They're this wisdom strength, like having that curiosity and love of learning, having perspective and good judgment. There are strengths that have to do with courage, like bravery for example, and strengths that have to do with what we call the humanity strengths. Love and kindness, teamwork, leadership, and appreciation of beauty, hope, gratitude, humor, spirituality. So self-regulation, prudence. So, there are 24, if you're curious, because we have what we call signature strengths. So, of our 24, some come more naturally to us. Like for me, it is that appreciation of beauty, is love of learning, its curiosity, it's zest and creativity. And so, you can go to the VIA, viacharacter.org. It's a nonprofit at FMCA. We work very closely with them. Their director teaches for us, it's called VIA, V-I-A, and you can go on their website. They have a free test, which is very well validated. And then you can get an idea of what your character strengths are, and we all have them. And we just, sometimes we use one or a few more than others and strengths have been studied quite extensively.   Steve Rush: Mmm, I love that whole principle of character strengths. And as you were listing them off, they're almost what you would look for, ideally, in a leader that you wanted to work with as well. They're all the things that you would want to engender that feeling of positivity and wellbeing, right?   Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum: Absolutely, and they come in clusters. So, you know, for example. One of my top strengths is zest, which is like this excitement. I'm always like jumping out of my skin, jumping for joy. And that also connects with creativity, for example, and then it's balanced with self-regulation to have the self-regulation, to sit down and study what you love learning. And so, there's wonderful ways that we help people by having them identify not what's wrong with them, but they can use these strengths. And the strengths are what bring us to having joy every day, for example, and perseverance. So right now, to have that resilience to keep going on is very, very crucial. So, what we do, what we train our coaches to do is to help people when they see their timeline, their story, that they're not just thinking about all the trauma they experienced and all the, for example, illnesses they may have had and suffered through and are perhaps still suffering.   But the coach might point out their perseverance that they didn't give up. They kept going, and so they would then ask that question, well, how can you do that today? Or what strength are you going to use today? Or you can have strengths talk with your family, for example, instead of asking your child how was your day at school? What strengths did you use? Or you set an intention at the beginning of the day. Today I'm going to practice my strength. I'm going to build my strength of forgiveness. That's one of the key character strengths that is definitely is highly correlated with physical wellbeing. Forgiveness is so important.   Steve Rush: Yeah, so the skeptics might be listening to this. Who are suggesting well, it's all very well having positive psychology, but what about dealing with the root causes some of these problems that exist in maybe other genres of psychology? How would you square that argument off?   Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum: So, Positive Psychology is not happy allergy. It is not about just, Oh, I have to be happy all the time. It's accepting of the full gamut of emotions. They just are, and in the course of a day, lifetime, we experience all of them. And it is this acceptance that is really the root of positive psychology. So, you have the acceptance. Yes, this happened to me or I experienced this and it was bad, it was traumatic. And how do I want to live right now? What do I want to focus on today? What do I want to be hopeful for about tomorrow? And so, yes, functional medicine is root cause medicine. It's where you dig down and say, okay, these symptoms that I'm experiencing are connected. For example, if you look under the hood to inflammation, what could be causing inflammation? Perhaps it's all of that gluten and sugar, perhaps it is lack of sleep that I'm experiencing, perhaps I am upsetting myself and I'm getting really aggravated about my work conditions.   I'm very worried about my finances. All of those things would be root causes. And it's not just one. They usually come in a huge cluster. Now, where does the positive psychology come in? Well, you would say, okay, what can I do about this? How can perhaps taking some pauses and clearing this out as I exhale slowly and take a very deep breath, I'm going to let go of what I don't think is serving me, or I'm going to use the self-regulation, character strength to go to bed earlier tonight, or I'm going to experience the joy of eating something that is going to have gluten or perhaps it's sugar. Like I was having that problem with, well, I can experience the joy of blueberries as my sweet as opposed to that chocolate chip cookie. So, and experience the excellence of that taste of that blueberry. So, I hope you could see that how this positive psychology stuff, particularly the character strengths are woven in to your getting at the root cause, which let's say often it is inflammation where your body is just chronically inflamed. And so, you're using your mind or using your body. So, all of these strategies come together. And I think too often, we dogmatic about one technique versus the other, one way of eating versus another. And I've always been a big believer in an integrative approach because you put it all together and that is quite powerful.   Steve Rush: Yes, it definitely is. And I can also see the relationship between the character strengths as you were talking that through as well. And one of those character strengths of course, is practice and like any new skill or habit, that's going to take some time to rethink and reframe how you do things, right?   Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum: Absolutely. So, some people think, well, it's all just talent. For example, we want to learn something. We have to be good at it, but it is that practice over and over and over again. Why is that significant? What's really happening is you're creating new neural pathways in the brain. And so, the more you do it, the more it becomes automatic. Think about the first time you got to a car; you were young. If you learned to drive, Oh, you had to pay attention to every step in that process. You don't do that today. If you're a driver it's automatic. And so that's how you learn. It's hard at first, but it gets easier. It's that quality when you're getting good at something it's called grit. Angela Duckworth writes about this extensively in her book, grit, and it is the example again of playing the piano. So, it's not just going to the piano and sitting down one time, it's going to make you a master pianist. No, those people spent hours and hours and hours practicing. I know a lot of professional ballet dancers and their practice started when they were very young and its hours and hours and hours at the bar practicing.   Steve Rush: Yeah, no substitute for hard work and practice, right?   Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum: Right.   Steve Rush: So, if I was interested in getting involved in this field, what would be your advice?   Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum: So, the coaches are needed now more than ever, and you do not need it background in health care. Some of the best coaches come from other walks of life. And so many people can study to become health coaches, even if they never go out and work as a health coach, they can find that information so valuable. And most of our students who come to us are really going out and working with others, but some are not, but they are all saying I had a personal transformation by learning a functional medicine paradigm of positive psychology. So, you can study with us. We have people who are medical doctors who are also studying to be coaches. We have people who are in the fields of nutrition, for example, and some of these folks are not changing careers. They are continuing what they're already doing, but they're using the coach approach. So, one of the best things that happen when you learn to be a coach is your relationships are transformed with your family, your friends, your colleagues. And if you are a practitioner with your patients, because you are really listening to them, they feel heard, and that improves the quality of the relationship.   Steve Rush: We'll also make sure before we finish off today, that we capture all of those things in our show notes. So, we can pass on any links and tips for any of our listeners who are really interested in this. So, at this part of the show, I also get to now flip the lens a little and get a chance to hack into the years of leadership experience that you've gathered along your career and on your journey too. So, the first thing I'm going to ask you, Sandra, is if you could share with our listeners. All of the years of experience and distill that down into your top three leadership hacks, what would they be?   Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum: Sure. So, I think that it is, the first is to be, yet it's not about me, it's about the people I serve, whether that's most particularly the people on my team. To really see what do they need, and it's the power of this teamwork. So, it's not about me, it's about them. And so, I'm very mindful of really listening when I'm at a team meeting, that is key. The second one would be to have, this goes along with the first one, is curiosity. I just am very curious and ask the right questions. And that also comes from the coach approach. And the third would be creativity. I love to find solutions. I'm a quick start, I'm a visionary. And I like to see that no matter how challenging the problem may be, that there's a solution. And I love to encourage people to think outside of the box, creative thinking. To see, well, how are we going to solve this? How are we going to pivot? And that's what I did so much during this pandemic to inspire people through creativity, to have a different mindset for example.   Steve Rush: And feeds, of course, positive psychology, doesn't it?   Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum: Yes exactly.   Steve Rush: The next part of the show we call it Hack to Attack. And I know from the work that you've done, you've said your biggest wins come from epic failures. And this part of the show is where we look at maybe a time in your life or work that could have been an epic failure, or certainly hasn't gone as well as planned. But as a result of the experience, you've used that as a learning in your life and work. So, what would be your Hack to Attack? Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum: Sure. So, we can go back to my roots and when I was in education and college. We had to have a time, we were student teachers and I had trouble in that experience. I could not control a classroom of children. This was not in special education. This was just a normal classroom. And I did not get a good grade in my student teaching. And that mean that I probably wouldn't get a job as a teacher because I didn't do well. And so, I remember thinking, oh, what am I going to do? I remember just flopping out of my bed, crying that my career is over, what am I'm going to do? I'm a failure. And so, I chose that to pivot and, Oh, I'll just stay in college and I'll get a master's in learning disabilities. Because in learning disabilities I can work one-on-one with children, I could do that. And so, I'm thankful because if I had not failed at that experience, I was gone on and had a classroom of children. And I probably would have spent years as a classroom teacher and retired with a pension and just sitting at home knitting and playing cards with my friends right now. Which I love, I don't like playing cards. I love video and I love all crafts, but that's another story, but I'm thankful for that failure.   Steve Rush: Real sliding doors moment, right?   Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum: Yes.   Steve Rush: And it's interesting. Had that had happened, how different the world would have been and all of the work and the academia and teaching that you've given since in a very different spere. So, hallelujah to failing that class is what I say.   Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum: Yes.   Steve Rush: The last thing that we would like to do today is give you a chance to do some time travel. So, you get to bump back into Sandra at 21 and give us some advice. What would it be?   Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum: To give up concern about what others think about you. I was always pretty obsessed with being right, with doing the right thing and a lot of the shame and embarrassment of making a mistake, whether that was a cognitive mistake or even the mistake of wearing the wrong outfit to a party, always having to be perfect in every way and wanting to be like by these people. And now at my age, 71, I'm much bolder. And just speaking my mind and letting go of the consequences, still being kind but not worrying about pleasing people.   Steve Rush: Yeah, that's great advice, isn't it? And I guess that doesn't matter how old you are. You can still learn to unlearn that as a behavior, can't you?   Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum: Absolutely.   Steve Rush: Love it. So, for folks listening to this Sandra that would like to get a little bit more insight as to the work that you do, and if you're writing and if you're teaching and maybe some information around The Functional Medicine Coaching Academy, where it's the best place for us to send them?   Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum: functionalmedicinecoaching.org is our website. And on Facebook it's Functional Medicine Coaching Academy on Instagram, functionalmedcoach, I should say, functionalmedcoach. Personally, I am drsani that's S-A-N-D-I on Instagram, and also at Dr. Sandy on the Clubhouse, new platform, which I'm excited about.   Steve Rush: You on Clubhouse too, awesome.   Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum: Love it, yes.   Steve Rush: Brilliant. For those folks who haven't listened to Clubhouse, it's like having podcasts on demand and lots of random conversations, but some really insightful discussions taking place.   Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum: Yes absolutely. I will follow you   Steve Rush: Super: Well, make sure that we connect and Clubhouse. We'll also make sure that all of those links you just spoke about are in our show notes so that we can continue the conversation beyond today.   Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum: Fantastic.
