0:00.0	Welcome to the Functional Nutrition Podcast. I'm your host, Erin Holt, and I'm a board-certified, integrative, and functional nutritionist. I live on the sea coast of New Hampshire and work with clients in my virtual practice all over the world through private consultations and online nutrition and functional
0:22.4	medicine programs. Functional medicine nutrition is all about diving deep with people to get to the root
0:28.6	cause of their health issues. And that's exactly what I tackle in this podcast, all things health,
0:34.8	food, and nutrition, unpacking current research and almost a decade of clinical

0:51.9	be used as a replacement for medical diagnosis or treatment.

1:34.6	feel okay about something, hold myself accountable. Because I will be working so intensely on the
1:42.3	practitioner training and mentorship that I'm doing. I want to really give
1:46.7	myself time to, you know, actually have a summer, first of all, and then to throw most of my
1:52.2	efforts into that. I have a full client load. So time is obviously at quite a premium. I love the
1:57.4	podcast. It's one of my favorite things. but I am getting more comfortable with realizing I cannot do all the things all the time.
