Today’s guest is going to be of special interest to any of you natural health or functional medicine practitioners out there, whether you’re already in practice or just thinking about getting into this field. Seth Conger has been a business leader and innovator in the functional medicine world since 2013. He’s helped bring several businesses to seven figures and beyond. He also created a cognitive decline and Alzheimer’s startup geared at helping people in those spaces.
Seth is now the COO of Freedom Practice Coaching, a company that helps practitioners reinvent and maximize business and client outcomes. We go deep into some practical tools practitioners can use to grow as entrepreneurs. We also talk a lot about functional medicine in general and the direction it should hopefully go over the next few decades. It’s a truly fascinating topic and I learned so much!
