The Practitioner Mastery Paradigm

The Practitioner Mastery Paradigm is a framework that Andrea designed to look at all the key aspects of a successful practice. The paradigm has eight prongs that interconnect and influence each other, just like the systems within the body. Andrea recognized that we need all eight to be a true Functional Nutrition master. You’ve made great strides already and we want to help you to focus on the keys that may be missing!

The next deep dive is to become so proficient with the Functional tools and systems that it will seem like answers just appear for you. Your intuition as a master practitioner will be awakened. Dots will connect themselves. New ways of looking at problems and cases will become natural to you.

Because of this, you’ll have unshakable confidence that you can handle whatever comes your way. You’ll also know that you can put yourself out there—for speaking engagements, partnerships with physicians, and more.

This is mastery
