The ND Gap

Tolerance for Turbulence: How to Keep Going When Things Get Hard


Listen Later

This week on The ND Gap, Jordan gets candid about something we all face but rarely talk about: what happens when our tolerance for everyday annoyances runs dry, and how it can ripple through our patient relationships and businesses. She opens up about the COVID years, when even the smallest slip, being eight minutes late or a typo in a treatment plan, felt catastrophic, and how those moments ultimately shaped her decision to step away from patient care. 

More than just a personal story, Jordan dives into what it really means to have a “tolerance for turbulence” and why it’s not about tolerating toxicity or abandoning your boundaries.

Welcome back to The ND Gap, the podcast about the space between where naturopathic medicine is today and where it needs to go. Hosted by Dr. Jordan Robertson, founder of The Confident Clinician, this show is about legitimizing, strengthening, and ultimately saving 

Each week, The ND Gap will close the distance with four pillars:

  • Clinical insights grounded in evidence

  • Business strategies for sustainable practice

  • Personal leadership for growth and resilience

  • The voices of NDs who are reshaping what this profession can be

Whether you’re a brand-new graduate or a seasoned clinician, this is your space to find strategies you can use right away, inspiration from your peers, and a bigger vision for the future of naturopathic medicine.

Because if we want to secure the future of our profession, we can’t wait for it to happen; we have to build it together.
