In this episode of The ND Gap, Jordan sits down with Dr. Sean Robertson to unpack the five biggest gaps in naturopathic education and how they directly affect your success as a clinician.
From unrealistic business training to the lack of guidance around associateships, ownership, and behaviour change, they break down exactly where schools fall short and what you can do to close the gap.
This is a candid, practical conversation for every ND who’s ever thought, “Why didn’t they teach us this in school?”
