You’re sitting in the doctor’s office with a new diagnosis you’ve never heard of, lab results full of numbers you don’t understand, and a brand-new prescription you’re supposed to start taking. You nod, you smile, and you leave. And before you even get to your car in the parking lot, you realize what you 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 have said: “𝗪𝗮𝗶𝘁... 𝗜’𝗺 𝘀𝗼𝗿𝗿𝘆. 𝗖𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁?” Lynne Vella has seen this happen far too many times, to far too many people. She spent 16 years as a Registered Practical Nurse and another 10 years as a medical transcriptionist. Again and again, she watched people receive important information about their own bodies and their health without truly understanding what they’d just been told. Sometimes the explanation wasn’t enough. Sometimes the language was too clinical. And sometimes you don’t even realize what you should have asked until you’re already home. Seriously... how are you supposed to know what questions to ask about something you didn’t even know you had five minutes ago? You can’t prepare questions for a diagnosis you weren’t expecting. You don’t know which numbers on that lab report matter until someone explains them. And you shouldn’t need a medical dictionary just to understand what’s happening in your own body. That’s why Lynne originally created 𝘼𝙨𝙠 𝙇𝙮𝙣𝙣𝙚 𝙃𝙚𝙖𝙡𝙩𝙝 𝙀𝙙𝙪𝙘𝙖𝙩𝙤𝙧, a health literacy community built around one simple idea: 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗶𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝘄𝗵𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗶𝘁 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘀. Plain, easy-to-understand language. No medical jargon. Absolutely no judgment. But a couple of months in, Lynne realized that she shouldn’t be the only voice in the room. Health is bigger than one profession, one perspective, or one person. People should be able to learn from nurses, counselors, coaches, holistic practitioners, people living with chronic illness, and other health communities and professionals. And that’s how 𝗔𝘀𝗸 𝗟𝘆𝗻𝗻𝗲’𝘀 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗘𝘅𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲 was born. 💚 It’s a place where health seekers meet health communities. It’s a place to come when you have questions or need help making sense of your labs, a diagnosis, hormones, symptoms, or the conversation you just had with your healthcare provider.

32% of people have ONE of these, 22% have MORE than one and 24% which they didn't have any. What is it? This one never even entered my mind! @Kristi Rieke

I have spent Friday evenings and Saturday mornings networking on Skool for the past couple of months at least. I network in communities, in comments, in threads and right here in The Directory. Conversations and connections inside Skool are the number 1 most important thing we can be doing to grow our communities organically. We all do this. This has made me wonder whether or not YOU have a favourite time of the week to network. Do you find weekends best like I do? Maybe you do not find one time better than others. Maybe you have a brand new community and do not know a lot yet about networking in Skool. So why is Lynne from The Health Exchange talking about networking today? Cause we all need it AND I have started growing "The Inner Exchange," wee communities inside my community where we will talk about networking first, then health preservation and mental health and so on! The Exchange is starting to grow communities inside the community. I do not only mean because everyone is welcome (which you are), but because this way we all learn together! You best time to network is? The Health Exchange, featuring The Inner Exchange - networking with ALL of you!

Most people don't lose the sale when they say the price. They lose it in the few seconds after. They say the number, panic at the quiet, and fill it. "But we can look at that." "There's a payment plan if that helps." "That includes everything, by the way." The customer hadn't even reacted yet. Say it clearly, once. Then stop talking and let them answer. The silence feels long to you. It doesn't to them. If you sell for a living, as a business owner, freelancer, coach or creator, and the price is the bit you dread, have a look at Direct Sales Mastery. Agree or disagree? 👇
