Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum Vroom Veer Stories

Got a "B" as a student teacher; had to veer away from becoming a teacher
Was interested in positive psychology before it existed; looking at strengths
Using positive psychology and a mind-body approach blended well with functional medicine
She couldn't sit still; this led to study and help people labeled with ADD
Doctor's today don't have time to help you "get more sleep" or lose weight or stop eating sugar
A functional medicine coach can fill in the gap with the "HOW" to lose weight, get more sleep, etc.
Big Veer approaching 65; decides to start a business training functional medicine coaches
