Transitioning from Student to Practitioner with Naomi Read

Natural Medicine Podcast

The transition from student to fully-fledged practitioner is daunting for any professional, but every once in a while you meet someone who really got organised from the get-go for their future career.

Meet Naomi Read, a Nutritionist who furthered her acumen to be a Naturopath (about to graduate when this podcast was recorded) and was so uninspired by the business curriculum during her college degree that she wrote an eBook to help not only herself, but her student friends.

Naomi personifies the true health professional and her words, "...holding space for the patient" reveal a wisdom beyond her youth.

In this podcast we discuss Naomi's impression of the shortcomings of preparation for a practitioner business, how developing an eBook was borne from her verbatim answering of questions from her cohort, how her attending an NHAA event cemented her connection to her colleagues and her chosen career and how a bowl of lemons on her kitchen table was a lightbulb moment for her business.

Listen in if you're a student Nutritionist, Herbalist or Naturopath and want a head start on preparing your future self for successful business life.
