Isn't getting healthy *kind of* simple in a sense?
Hear us out...
OBVIOUSLY, people that come to us in the world of functional healthcare are some of the sickest of the sick, so, no, it's not that we mean it's literally simple to get healthy. What we mean is that, if you were to ask yourself right now what one or two things you could implement to improve your health, you'd know the answer(s) right away. This is also true when it comes to things like physical fitness, finances, relationships, etc..
How is that we are all aware of the things that we COULD do to get better in these areas, and yet we don't immediately do them? The answer is that we are at a certain "level" of our personal development journey which keeps us at a particular place. Once we move to the next level, those habits that we weren't doing all of a sudden become a piece of cake, and there is a new set of habits awaiting for us.
Since we at FDN know healing chronic health challenges is just as much (if not more) a personal development journey as it is a health journey, we brought on someone who is an expert in the mindset side of things: Kate House!
Kate House is the host of the popular "Live By Design" podcast where she helps people release overwhelm, get unstuck, and take aligned action via habit-based goals. In this episode of The Health Detective Podcast, we discuss her topics like mindset, goal-setting, and how she became a successful entrepreneur with no preivous exerience!
We hope you enjoy this episode, and make sure to give Kate a follow!

Out of the well over 100 interviews that have been done on The Health Detective Podcast, our host, Detective Ev, says this is genuinely one of his favorites of all-time!
Our guest today, Sarah Lohman, came on our show and absolutely poured her heart out. She took us through the actual experience that SO many of those who suffer with chronic health conditions go through in complete silence.
Whether you are someone who has dealt with thyroid issues, or even if you're someone who just wants someone in your life to UNDERSTAND some of the things those who deal with chronic health challenges go through, this is the episode for you.
We thank Sarah so much for coming on and doing what she did.

We have another business episode for all you health detectives out there today, and this time, we're talking about why you need to stop selling one-off sessions.
Whether it's a limiting belief (or two, or three), lack of experience, or a lack of a system, there are many reasons practitioners fall into the trap of selling only one session to their clients. The problem, however, is that when you ask ANY practitioner how long it takes for a client to get better, NONE of them would say that the answer is only one day.
In thie episode, we take both a motivational and practical approach to why you need to be selling your services in the form of a program. It will not only benefit you, but more importantly, it will greatly benefit your clients!
As always, if you have any questions, reach out to us on Instagram @fdntraining. We have real humans answering you (as opposed to chat bots). Just say you heard about us on the podcast!

Bridgit Danner was working as an acupuncturist in Portland, Oregon when her health started to deteriorate. She learned a lot, tried a lot of things and even completed a functional health coaching program in an effort to heal herself and become a better practitioner. Although several things kind of helped, nothing helped completely, and she hit rock bottom in the winter of 2014.
Soon after she discovered toxic mold in her 100-yr old home and began the long journey of home and body repair. Bridgit got into the natural medicine field in 2000 as a young environmentalist. She practiced as an acupuncturist and integrative clinic owner for 13 years, performing well over 10,000 sessions, before transitioning to the online space as a functional health coach and educator.

Leigh was obsessed with sports as a child (and still is) and has always been active. At age 14, he began weight training in his school’s gym, but started taking it seriously at 23. At the age of 27, Leigh completed his first course with the American College of Sports Medicine and his career took off from there!
Since then, he's been passionate about learning and turning that knowledge into wisdom through the experience of what is now over 26 years working with clients. Leigh has always sought the ‘best of the best’ to learn from and is as passionate about his work and gaining knowledge now as he was in 1996.
He's studied many different disciplines, including corrective exercise, strength and conditioning, tennis conditioning, nutrition, functional diagnostic nutrition, energy medicine, Bio Geometry, and manual therapy, to name a few. This has given Leigh the ability to provide a truly holistic approach to helping clients over the years, which they have found very effective, often after other approaches hadn’t helped them.
Leigh has formally studied with some of the world’s greatest minds such as Paul Chek, Bill Wolcott, Dr John Veltheim, Dr Michael Leahy, Dr Dietrich Klinghardt and Dr Ibrahim Karim.
Nowadays, most of Leigh's work includes helping clients overcome injuries, gut conditions, and skin conditions.
Leigh has also been a member of the Faculty of the world-renowned CHEK Institute since 2010 teaching and presenting in Europe, USA and Australia. He's also published four books and has a number of online professional continuing education programs.
