Dr. Glenna Calder is a licenced Naturopathic Doctor who’s been in practice for 17 years. A few years ago she became intrigued with the online business world and decided to launch a new side to her business, a month long Optimal Health program. A number of people began taking it right away. She attributes her immediate success to the support she received through a 6 week coaching program. It prompted her to get started sharing her health and nutritional tips regularly on her personal Facebook page. The second coach she hired took her off track by pushing her in a direction that wasn't congruent with her in-person business. This put her in pause mode to re-group & reassess. Is having a fully online business business in her future? Most likely, however she’s going to do it at her pace and her plan. And of course, she’ll hire a coach when she’s ready because she absolutely believes it cuts down on the learning curve and workload as long as you’ve got the right person to support you. Her advice to those who are considering entering the online world who already have an in-person practice ... Know your goals because if it’s just to make extra income per month, it might not be the fastest way to earn that income. Get a coach to help you get to where you want to go faster. When choosing a coach, trust your gut or you could end up getting off your path and onto one that you won’t enjoy.

Recently, I had the good fortune to sit down with DR PAULA CREIGHTON, MD, FRCPC in Glace Bay, Nova Scotia, Canada. Dr. Creighton, who specializes in the field of aging or Geriatrics, has a tremendous amount of information to share, on both a professional and personal level, that may alter (in a good way) the way you perceive the aging process. Although aging is a natural part of the human life cycle, many of us shy away from accessing the expertise and support we need to ensure that our “golden years” (or our parent’s golden years) are fulfilling, healthy, balanced and rewarding. These resources may include invaluable diagnostics, key medical advances, coordination of services, and meaningful community connection. After talking with Dr. Creighton, I had two flashes of inspiration: First, “I want to learn more.” and second, “Wow, this would be fantastic information for our listeners.” So, get ready for a empowering conversation about AGING WELL that flows straight from the spirit and into the heart. Thank you Dr. Creighton for doing this work!
