best practice, business, clinic, naturopath, practitioner, professionals, stress
Do you have something that you do well that you would like to share with the world?
Bronwen Cope has a special interest in stress, anxiety and depression. She believes that “what we consider is stress is so much more than we perceive.” Bronwen, a Naturopath of over 20 years, had a surprising realisation at the International Congress on Natural Medicine one year that she was not herself due to the high levels of stress she was enduring. She struggled to find a long lasting solution so she set out to create one herself.
Bronwen spent over two years intensely researching and delved into finding a reproducible and highly marketable system to help her and her patients move from a state of fear and distress to living full and happy lives of achievement.
Could this be you? Could you research, create and share a body of work, wrapped up as a marketable program for the benefit of a wider audience?
