In this episode, Uli sits down with Jennifer Iserloh, a professionally trained chef, functional wellness expert and media coach, shares her journey of overcoming camera fears and offers guidance on how to become comfortable in front of the camera. She shares the experience of her very first TV appearance on The Today Show and the techniques she has since used to master on-camera work for 1000s of videos. She emphasizes the importance of finding a balance between being an authority figure and being approachable, as well as practicing relaxation techniques like breathwork to calm nerves before going on camera. As part of her media coaching approach for health practitioners, she recommends a 7-day challenge for practitioners to record themselves daily, review the footage for feedback, and practice techniques like camera yoga and lip fluttering to help loosen up. She also highlights the significance of body language, facial expressions, audio quality, and consistency in videos. Tune in for many practical tips to become a more persuasive communicator on-camera, and reach out to Jennifer to learn more about private 1-on-1 media coaching. Listen to learn:

How can health practitioners coach patients more effectively?

In this episode, Uli dives into this crucial question with Andrea Nakayama, a leader in functional nutrition and founder of the Functional Nutrition Alliance. With decades of experience training practitioners and addressing chronic illness, Andrea shares how health practitioners can better coach their prospective clients or patients to a decision to seek professional help.

As the host of the 15-Minute Matrix Podcast and the founder of Functional Nutrition Alliance, Andrea has been leading thousands of students and practitioners around the globe in a revolution to offer better solutions to the growing chronic illness epidemic. After losing her young husband to a brain tumor in 2002, she discovered a passion for using food as personalized medicine and is now regularly consulted as the nutrition expert for the toughest clinical cases in the practices of many world-renowned doctors. You’ll learn why we need to prioritize cultural competency, trauma-informed care, and patient education when working with clients – and why it’s so critical to focus on the three root factors of genetics, digestion, and inflammation Plus, we discussed the importance of a true therapeutic partnership, understanding that the patient is the other expert in the room, and that practitioners should focus on educating them on why they are making the recommendations they are, creating a more sustainable approach to health.

• Andrea explains how combining behavioral strategies with physiological insights creates a more holistic approach to patient care.
• Learn why patients ghost their practitioners and how slowing down the process can build trust and ensure long-term success.
• Discover Andrea’s "Three Roots, Many Branches" model, which shifts focus from “fixing” patients to fostering a therapeutic partnership.
• How trauma-informed care and cultural competency can transform your practice.
• Understand how moving from a top-down approach to collaborative care empowers patients to take ownership of their health.

• “Patients are coming in feeling broken. It’s not our job to fix them—it’s our job to partner with them.” (10:00 | Andrea Nakayama)
• “So what I also find in the world of trauma out there is a lot of patients are looking for the root. We have to actually change where the roots live, which is in the soil, in the terrain.” (13:31-14:11 | Andrea)
• “I invite people to sit in that discomfort. That's where we learn, that's where we grow, and that's how we serve.” (21:25-21:33 | Andrea)
• “I'm just gonna remind people, yes, everything is connected, but who we are and what we do also informs what's happening in the body.” (27:07-27:18 | Andrea)

• "You need to build that connection that people almost feel they're sort of in a coaching environment, that they can imagine how it would feel if they became your patient." (10:30 | Uli)
• "The goal at this point in a discovery call is probably not to get the big commitment for a three or six months program, but you want to get them to commit to their first paid initial appointment." (14:45 | Uli)

The hosts outline a seven-step framework for discovery calls:

1. Set the agenda for the call

Uli and Mike also discuss how to transition from discovery calls to initial paid appointments by offering a "test drive" approach rather than pushing for immediate commitment to longer programs.

The episode provides valuable insights for practitioners who struggle with the sales environment or feel anxious about discovery calls. Tune in for practical strategies to build confidence and improve conversion rates while maintaining professional integrity.

• "The first decision that they have to make on social media is, do I want to abandon the DIY approach? Do I want to maybe abandon the conventional medical approach?" (Uli Iserloh)

In today’s episode with Scott Rattigan, co-founder of Origins Incubator and Functional Lawyer, we’re unpacking what it takes to launch and grow a successful private practice in the integrative and functional medicine space.

Along with his wife Linda - a board certified family medicine DO, they grew a successful private practice at Origins Functional Medicine - learning firsthand what goes into running a successful practice…

Personally, I've known Scott since 2015 when he joined the Evolution of Medicine team – and over the years, he's made many valuable contributions to our ecosystem...

... whether it's through his book "The Practice Of Telemedicine" - the quintessential guide to navigating the legal landscape – or through his educational videos.

• “One of our core values is, it's not a quick fix. It's not a magic pill. It'll still take work. Leverage your time to make the most bang for your buck.” (09:44 | 09:53 Scott)
• “Most of the things that keep people from growing or progressing are mental.” (13:54 | 13:58 Scott)
• “When you reach a certain level of removing all the barriers in the physical person's body, then some of the trauma or the emotional things will come up that were buried for a long time.” (19:20 | 19:27 Scott)
• “It really is about you and your story, because people will identify with your story. They want to see themselves in you.” (24:42 | 24:48 Scott)
