The Clinical Shift: Why We’re Doubling Down on Practitioners

If you’ve been following this podcast for a while, you might have noticed something different—not just in the name, but in the direction we’re heading. What started as Beyond the Diagnosis has evolved, and today, I want to share exactly why.

I started this podcast back in 2020 on a whim. I had no idea what I was doing, had never even listened to a podcast before, but I had a message I knew needed to be heard. That message? Healing beyond a diagnosis. I taught people—patients, practitioners, anyone who would listen—how to look beyond “normal” lab results and actually find the answers hidden inside.

Fast forward to today, and things have shifted in a big way. What started as a podcast for everyone ended up attracting practitioners. You guys—the doctors, the health coaches, the wellness experts—kept tuning in, kept asking for more, and it became clear that I could make the biggest impact by helping YOU help more patients.

So, with that comes a new name, a new focus, and a new host—someone you’ve already heard from many times before. I’m officially passing the mic to Mike Rhees, who’s been in the trenches with me, making clinical practice simpler, more effective, and scalable.

If you’re ready to simplify your practice, grow your impact, and stop overcomplicating functional medicine, then hit subscribe, leave a review, and share this with a colleague. We’re building something big, and I want you to be part of it.

 “That's what this podcast is all about. Your clinical expertise put underneath one umbrella, so you can get patient results faster, grow your business, have it be easy and fun, and impact.” - Dr Kylie Burton
