Business Noob --> to Premium Marketing Provider in 6 Months Flat, with Scott Schneider

Dr. Jones graduated from medical school with a scholarship but
ended up realising that most doctors don’t learn how to make
people’s lives better in school; so instead he spent a lot of his
time on functional medicine and wellness centres, where he learned
to apply more holistic methods of dieting and examinations to
optimise people’s health on a case-by-case basis, completely
changing how his clients live and feel daily. He talks about the
ways people get sick, what could be missing in your diet, nutrients
of all kinds, and better living through re-education.
