Lesson 1 Takeaways

  • Feeling uncertain is normal when doing something new or challenging. Don’t avoid it, get comfortable with it.
  • Uncertainty can hold you back from taking action and growing your business. Push past it.
  • Be confident in your abilities even if you feel uncertain. Clients will pick up on this.
  • Use uncertainty as motivation to learn and improve. It’s part of the process.
  • Take imperfect action despite uncertainty. Results come from doing, not overplanning.
  • Don’t get distracted by busy work. Push past uncertainty to accomplish goals.
  • Admit what you don’t know yet. Then commit to figuring it out. Knowledge comes with experience.
Lesson 2 Takeaways

  • Richard Feynman’s approach to learning emphasizes understanding over simply knowing the name of something.
  • He distinguishes between two types of knowledge: knowing the name of something and truly understanding it.
  • The technique prioritizes gaining a deep understanding of a subject rather than superficial knowledge.
  • It helps individuals to build confidence in their knowledge and the ability to explain complex concepts simply.
  • The Feynman Technique involves breaking down a topic by starting with the specifics of what you already know.
  • It encourages clear and simple communication, both in teaching and marketing efforts.
  • The technique can be applied to any areas of learning and helps bridge knowledge gaps.
  • It empowers individuals to research and find answers when they encounter questions to which they don’t immediately know the answer.
Lesson 3 Takeaways

  • Understanding the “why” behind a health issue can be crucial in finding solutions.
  • Using real-life examples to learn from others’ actions and mistakes can be valuable.
  • A functional medicine coach faced challenges when helping a friend’s daughter with joint pain and an idiopathic arthritis diagnosis.
  • The coach lacked direct communication with the daughter and relied on limited information from the mother.
  • Understand the importance of asking the right questions to gather essential information from clients.
  • The need for clarification and understanding the “why” behind each question is essential.
  • Focusing on what is known for sure rather than making guesses during the initial assessment.
  • Recognizing the four critical elements for sustaining life: air, food, water, and sleep, and how they impact overall health and function.
Lesson 4 Takeaways

  • Your confidence in the process helps clients believe change is possible.
  • Uncertainty about business aspects is normal. Accept and push forward anyway.
  • Look for small ways to practice certainty around an area of uncertainty. Get a “win.”
  • Being uncertain about how to do something differs from believing you can’t do it.
  • Clients want to know you can guide them even when uncertain. It gives them permission, too.
  • Balance confidence and humility. Some self-doubt allows you to stay open and learn.
  • Success comes from a willingness to feel uncertainty yet take action anyway.
  • If uncertainty immobilizes you, reflect on why. Then challenge yourself to move forward.
