EPISODE 158 OF GROWING OLDER LIVING YOUNGER focuses on functional medicine, and the value of having a health coach to support the lifestyle changes you might make to promote wellness and live younger longer. I talk with functional medicine health coach trainer, Sandra Scheinbaum, founder and CEO of the Functional Medicine Coaching Academy (FMCA), a collaboration with the Institute for Functional Medicine. Sandra has been an educator, clinical psychologist, author, and public speaker for over 40 years. She hosts the Health Coach Talk podcast. At 65, rather than retiring, she founded the FMCA to train health coaches and grow the health coaching profession so that  people can get the support they need to lead healthier lives.
