Whole Life Practitioner Podcast

In this podcast, I’m flying solo and talking about social media for acupuncturists. The marketing world is confusing and, for some, quite overwhelming. No question gets brought up more in my classes and my email inbox than whether social media works for getting acupuncture patients, and how to manage it all. So, here, I hit […] The post WLP Podcast S1E10 – Social media for acupuncturists : Whether, why, how and really? appeared first on Chinese Medicine Central.

In this episode, I welcome Allison Jacob of Earth Sea Acupuncture in Waterbury, Vermont (which I erroneously called Virginia at first – forgive me!). Like me, she practices in a relatively more rural area, and a lot of what we discuss revolves around that topic. How do you find patients in a rural area? How […] The post WLP Podcast S1E09 – Allison Jacob talks rural acupuncture, esthetics & bringing your whole self appeared first on Chinese Medicine Central.

It’s another re-release of an old Deepest Health podcast episode. I even kept the original intro/outro music intact for that extra ring of authenticity (and less work for me!) This one has some pretty major audio quality challenges, but the content is strong. Here, Z’ev and I talk more about the profession at large, rather […] The post WLP Podcast S1E08 – Z’ev Rosenberg’s 2011 podcast interview appeared first on Chinese Medicine Central.

  In this episode of the podcast, I was fortunate to talk with Z’ev Rosenberg, author, teacher and very busy Chinese medicine practitioner. Z’ev practices out of his home in San Diego, and because many students ask me about home-based practice, we focused quite a bit on how that works for him. However, we also […] The post WLP Podcast S1E07 – Z’ev Rosenberg discusses home acupuncture practice & nourishing life appeared first on Chinese Medicine Central.

This is a special, significantly longer, episode of the WLP podcast. As I’m interviewing practitioners about their business and professional lives, I’ll be re-releasing any interviews I’ve done with them in the past as well. Since many of these interviews do touch on the business side of acupuncture practice, it seemed a shame to let […] The post WLP Podcast S1E6 2014 interview with Neal Sivula, re-released! appeared first on Chinese Medicine Central.

In this episode of the Whole Life Practitioner podcast, I am excited to introduce Dr. Neal Sivula, DVM, PhD, a holistic veterinarian practicing in Richfield, OH. Neal was kind to chat with me about the setup of his practice, including his decision not to have real-time reception, and how he has pivoted towards an entirely […] The post WLP Podcast S1E5 – Veterinary acupuncture & creating a practice that supports your life balance appeared first on Chinese Medicine Central.

In this episode of the Whole Life Practitioner podcast, I have Rowan Everard, MS, LAc on the line! I ask him what I will be asking every practitioner guest on the show moving forward to get us started: What does Whole Life Practitioner mean to you, and do you resonate with the concept? What’s something […] The post WLP Podcast S1E4 – Networking for acupuncturists, integrity & activism appeared first on Chinese Medicine Central.

In this episode of the podcast, I bring Amanda Barp, LMT, RYT and co-owner of Watershed Wellness to discuss what it’s like to be married and business partners! Whether you’re legally married or in some other type of life partnership, having yet another domain full of logistics and potential conflict can seem like a… poor […] The post WLP podcast S1E3 : What’s it like to be married business partners? appeared first on Chinese Medicine Central.

This episode of the podcast was inspired by a couple of conversations I’ve had recently with colleagues and students who are, in various ways, struggling to find how to bring parts of themselves into resonance with their professional lives. Whether because of some aspect of their personalities, or because of a political cause they support, […] The post WLP podcast S1E2 : How do you bring your whole self to your acupuncture practice? appeared first on Chinese Medicine Central.

In this first episode of the new podcast, I explore what I mean by “Whole Life Practitioner” and how that informs both my personal practice of acupuncture and my teaching online and off. I earnestly try to articulate how WLP helps us root our practices as acupuncturists in the holism we’re supposed to operate with […] The post WLP podcast S1E1 : What is a Whole Life Practitioner? appeared first on Chinese Medicine Central.
