Bonnie Wisener, RHN|Gut Health Expert

After 11 years in practice, it's always important to stay humble.

The humble don't "know-it-all" - they still strive to learn it all.

My greatest gift has been the amazing clients, and doctor referrals that I have the privilege of engaging with every day.

One thing I can say - it's a bit of a brag, so brace yourself ...
When you enter the healthspace with the word "holistic 'ahead of your title, it makes you proud but also self conscious. You come to realize that not everyone holds value for what you do and your approach.

I can now say with complete confidence that I am comfortable and not intimidated to be in conversation with any other healthcare provider about many things, but specifically about IBS and digestive dysfunction. Instead so many that I respect are making it a practice of filtering these patients through me to see if the Shift Your Gut Therapy Methodology can help their patients. We are on the brink of an exciting time in Canada...where our conventional medical model will begin to incorporate some more holistic approaches and working side by side, holistic practitioners will need to reach for the most compelling evidence based solutions to help their clients best, Each "side" is learning their limitations, and by recognizing that, are aiming to be limitless - all in an effort to provide education and health improvements for their community of patients and clients

Whoever nominated me this year, thank you - it's an honour to be recognized by your local community. Thanks @thereaderschoice_ca - for providing a format for this accolade.

Shout out to all of the other @csnnnational grads who were similarly recognized,
