How It Works
How is the course delivered?
Four pillars of learning — designed to give you the theoretical foundations and the practical tools you need to confidently support clients.
12 Program Modules
The program contains 12 modules, each containing 3–6 video lectures (15–30 minutes long), handouts, and additional resources. All content is evidence-based with links to hundreds of research studies and references cited.
Condition-Based Protocols
Throughout the program there are protocols for the foundational aspects of health like the gut, stress and liver detoxification, along with hormonal imbalances like high estrogen and low progesterone, and more.
Content Teaching & Q&A Recordings
Access 6 Content Teaching and Q&A Call recordings where you review each of the modules, discuss specific conditions and protocols, and explore hormone testing to broaden your exposure to the most common conditions.
Client Case Study Recordings
Each month you'll access Client Case Study Call recordings with in-depth reviews of 3 individual cases — what challenges they faced, their symptoms, what interventions we used and their results. Bridge the gap between theory and practice.
And that's just the start…
