Khush recently sat down with Emma, one of our graduates and now part of our practitioner team. Emma came to the New School with no background in science. In fact, before joining us, science was…
think strength is? Or how did that go? But again, she's...
really good because she's very if she has something on her mind that's it she goes for it so she's very headstrong she was just I think she felt that over disappointed she said if she cried and I was like where's that come from but I know like I don't I still find it quite hard I know I cried earlier because I talked about my mum but I do as soon as I feel it coming I stop myself And that's from years of just doing that.
And so I'm trying to kind of just show her that we can show our emotions and crying is a good thing.
It's a release.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So at the same time, you know, we've talked quite a lot about coaching.
Because I do find that that is the I think the part of the curriculum that people come and think, OK, just do it until they get into year two, I think.
And when we do the clinics.
Right.
So, you know, we laugh about it in the clinics.
Every single client we see in clinic requires coaching, although they might not realize it because of the nutrition.
And most students end up doing coaching in the clinics.
So do you, you know, just now, if somebody is actually thinking about doing the course, shall I do the course? Shall I not do the course? Oh, there's lots of courses out there.
And I'm not saying it's the best course on what have you.
What what advice would you give them? And especially thinking about because people generally join.
We've got several students who come because they come for their own health
and the
health of their children, their family.
rather than no intention to practice and believe it or not, end up practicing.
And I think that's beautiful when that happens because it means it's impacted your life so much that you actually want to do it.
And even like you said, you know, you were one of the students that took a clinic case.
And again, with the clinic case, we always say we're there with you.
We're holding your hand, you know, make sure when you then type up a report for the clients, it gets reviewed by another supervisor.
So, you know, that's one of our, I would say that's one of our, strengths is the school clinics and then all the students in year two how it all comes into play but I do think because I remember you taking that case and how you were so nervous and how you were just a natural is anybody who's sort of thinking like that now they might be coming for their family's health and they don't have to train to be a practitioner anything any message that you have for them considering what you know what you've gone through and where you're at now Emma
