In this episode of Living The Retirement Lifestyle Podcast we talk with medical doctor Luz Marten and hear how a patient at his practice who he was unable to help with traditional medication led him and his wife into the world of holistic medicine and network marketing. You will definitely want to listen to his story and hear some of the challenges he faced on the journey including having to forfeit his medical practice in favour of his belief in natural solutions. How we should all be free to make better choices in life that we believe in. https://vimeo.com/855286083 His career began as a paramedic and later became an anaethetist but after burnout and suffering depression took the decision to re-qualify as a medical doctor proof having realised that money isn't everything! For a period of time life became much better for him and his wife and he was happy with his lifestyle but yet there was a desire to do and be more... Then one day a patient changed everything for him and his wife. He had been unable to help her with traditional medicine then one day she turned up at his practice and shared with him how she had treated herself holistically and she wanted to share with him her story. That story changed his life and his career He tried the products for himself and many of the afflictions he had went away and he just knew he had to share this with those who needed to find solutions He knew nothing about the world of network marketing that his patient had introduced him to just loved that these products worked and wanted to tell everyone about them What happened next is all too familiar in today's world unfortunately but there is a happy ending Lutz and his wife now have the means to help people who traditional medicine has not helped and the results as we know too well ourselves are becoming more accepted They have created a business they love and they continue to serve people who have health challenges but in a different way As Lutz says, change is never easy but it's definitely possible if you are open to doing things differently We have many years ahead of us and be healthy enough to enjoy those years Lutz's tips to starting a side hustle or trying something new : Find someone you know, like and trust and who have done what you want to do and take advice from them Make sure that what you do will solve a problem for someone Don't let anyone or anything hold you back Get coaching Face the fear and work on your mindset and personal development Give it a try because if you don't you will never know Sometimes there are opportunities you don't even know about - just be open to what is there for you Thank you for joining us and listening to our chat with Lutz Marten and hope his story inspires you to think about your own life and what may lie ahead for you You can find him on Facebook : Lutz Marten We look forward to seeing you on the next Living The Retirement Lifestyle Podcast
