“Your labs are fine so I don’t see need for additional care or testing.” I stared at him and wanted to cry. How was this fine?? why didn’t these doctors believe me?! I had to study naturopathic medicine myself when no one else would help me 🫠 I now offer an educational self help program here on Skool for people with complex chronic health struggles, that are often struggling with quality of life and not getting enough help from western medicine anymore, written by me, someone who struggled with my health and became a traditional European Naturopath. I want to be the person I couldn’t find and help more people help themselves. I also take clients 1:1 (limited slots, enrollment is open, will close when slots are filled✨) via my VIP membership!

In case you missed it, the mayhem begins tonight at midnight EDT and lasts for 24 hours! What does that mean??? For 24 hours, you can promote ANYTHING you want once an hour. Free or paid, on Skool or off Skool, product or service, anything goes! There are just two rules: 1. You can only post once an hour. Yes, we will be monitoring, but please also just follow the rules so that we don't have to do a lot of extra work. 😉 2. For every post you make, you must comment on 3 other posts. GIFs alone do not count, but we do like them along with a thoughtful comment. Wondering why you have to comment? Well, we don't post and 👻 around here, but also, read this post by Des for some more great points! Do you know what you are going to post? Do you have a plan or are you just going to wing it? Do you have a current promotion that you want to highlight? Who has their posts all lined up and ready to copy and paste? Let's have some fun with this! 🤩 Make connection, support each other, get some new members, and maybe find a couple of new groups yourself!

You've tried the trend diets. Maybe you've followed health protocols promising to transform your life that still came up flat. You've pushed through the exhaustion, tracked the calories, done the elimination rounds, and still wake up feeling like your body is working against you. And somewhere along the way you started to believe that you were the problem. You are not the problem. You were just never given the full picture. What the wellness industry consistently leaves out is the emotional layer. The shame that lives in the body. The grief that never had space to move through. The nervous system that learned early that it wasn't safe to rest. These are not soft, optional extras on the side of your healing journey. They are central to it, and ignoring them is exactly why so many people plateau no matter how clean they eat or how many supplements they take. I'm Sierra, a naturopath specializing in Traditional European Naturopathic Medicine, and my Holistic Health Academy on Skool exists to give you the full picture and finally help you understand why nothing has worked yet. As a welcome gift to new members, I'm offering my Love Yourself to Health Affirmation Jar, which has 45 targeted affirmations written specifically for people who are learning to care for their bodies instead of punish them, rooted in the same organ theory and emotional health framework I teach inside the program. It is free, it is printable, and it is the beginning of something that actually goes deep enough to work. It's all there waiting for you, so come check it out. The link to join is in the comments. It's time someone started looking out for you.

I change my life 🥲🥲 Skool is helping me change my life. Also before I explain why, any fellow holistics or chronically ill peeps in here? Would love to connect. I have complex chronic illness and while the whole story is way too long to share here, suffice to say, western medicine basically told me to lose weight and diet and ignored I was in so much pain I couldn’t move, that I was having monthly infections with high fever for 2-3 weeks at a time, that I was drowning mentally and physically my body was giving up. There was a long, sad story in between this, but let’s skip to the good part. I became a naturopath and the frameworks and methods I learned changed my entire life. Infections gone. Energy back. Brain clear??? Also… this has never been available in English before. I studied in Dutch at 2 schools of naturopathic medicine, in my second language while chronically ill. All I can say… is I know I’m here for a reason. I’ve now created an entire ecosystem and I’ve just launched one of the last parts today🥹🥹 I’m using a Freemium model. For free, members can join, read the Fundamental modules, read Organ Theory (what traditional European naturopathy says about the liver, digestive system, urinary/kidneys, airways/lungs and skin) and take the Organ Assessment Quiz. Today I finished writing the nutrition part of Organ Interventions which actually empowers people to improve their health, themselves, through nutrition, nervous system care, herbal medicine and lifestyle. Plus trauma informed, anti-diet culture habit trackers, symptom trackers and food journals. Miss a day? Nbd. Life is a journey not a race. So is healing. Together those make up my paid tier. There’s a second paid tier at a higher price point that includes a free email intake + digital consults with me. And I’m just sitting here because who am I??? How did I build a quiz? How did I create all this?? I still have like no following. A little, not much. But I know, I am changing my life. I wanted a digital income to move to France. And mark my words. I’m going. In 12-18 months. And it feels good🥹

I read from a sales coach recently that it’s important to have a differentiating factor, or “contrary belief” that explains why you do what you. For me, my approach is completely flipped… compared to most alternative or holistic medicine practitioners but I truly believe that by teaching people: -about their body instead of handing over protocols+supplements, - to care for themselves with stable nutrition (and maybe a sprinkle of herbal medicine😅), -to identify the best lifestyle for THEM ~a better quality of life can be found 🥹💖 What is your contrary belief?
