Over the past two years, we’ve had over 50 women apply to work with us at Better Belly Therapies to do our signature gut healing program – the Foundations Program. Part of the process of working with us is filling out our Qualifying Call Application – a series of questions that gathers all the necessary data for me and my team to decide if we can help the woman who is applying to work with us. On today’s podcast, I’m sharing the results from nearly 50 women’s responses to the Qualifying Call application. These responses are all from women that we approved to talk with, and who qualified to work with us.

I’ll also share 4 steps you can take today to slowly get out from under the pressure and demand of perfectionism!
