Author: Jensen Schoonover September 7, 2022 Duration: 35:21
In this episode, Emily Ames and I talk about how you can start transitioning from working with clients 1:1 to offering a course, and still use functional labs to get those bio-individual results with clients! We talk about the different benefits of online courses and the best way to start creating your first one! Emily is a Nutritional Therapist turned Online Course Coach.  Her specialty is supporting holistic practitioners, nutritional therapists, and those in the health and wellness space build their online businesses and reach larger audiences via online courses.  She graduated from Gettysburg college in Political science and has a corporate career background in fundraising, Recruitment, knowledge management, and operations.   Her passion is to empower holistic practitioners, health coaches, and nutritionists to share their knowledge and expertise and also help them avoid 1:1 burnout.  She loves teaching others about passive income and how to streamline their business so they can actually enjoy their work + life! Through her work, she believes she is able to not only help women build their businesses but also bring greater healing to the world through her students' online courses.

Ever finish a nutrition or wellness certification and realize there's a whole world of functional lab testing nobody covered in class? That's exactly where host Jensen Schoonover found himself, and it's the spark for Test Don't Guess-Functional Lab Chats. This podcast digs into the practical, often overlooked tools that can transform a practice, moving beyond theory into the tangible data of gut health, hormone panels, mold exposure, and mineral balances. Each conversation is a deep dive with practitioners who are in the trenches, lab experts who interpret the numbers, and educators who design the courses. You’ll hear how they navigate the complexities of different tests, apply the results to real client scenarios, and build more confident, evidence-based approaches to care. It’s for the curious, the detail-oriented, and those tired of guessing. Jensen’s discussions strip away the intimidation, making advanced functional lab work feel accessible and actionable. Tune in to find clarity, learn from colleagues' experiences, and discover how to integrate these powerful assessments into your own work. This isn't about abstract science; it's about the applied art of using data to guide genuine healing, one insightful chat at a time.
