Upcoming FREE Event – Holistic Health Week (April 22 – 26)
FDN has been working hard over the last several months to put together Holistic Health Week bringing together over 25 leaders in the health space and sharing their expertise in every area of holistic health. Participants will dive into a series of enlightening talks. This is the FDN version of a “summit” and we want YOU to be a part of it!
What time does it start each day?
The first speaker will come on at 10AM EST everyday (Monday-Friday) until the LIVE Q&A from 5 – 6PM EST.
I can’t make it LIVE to every session. Will there be replays?
Your free ticket does not include access to replays. However, if you upgrade to be a VIP after getting your free ticket, you’ll get permanent access to every talk! We recommend this, so you can refer back to these conversations whenever.
How will I get to watch the live events?
All attendees will be provided with a website link to a “watch page,” where you can experience the events live as they happen. If you’re a VIP pass holder, in addition to live access, you will also have the privilege of watching the replays at your convenience on the FDNConnect site, ensuring you never miss a moment.
Who’s speaking at the event?
We’ve got a mix of FDNPs and other holistic health experts who are at the top of their field! Click here to see the full line-up.
I’m not a health coach or practitioner – is this event for me?
Yes! This event is for anyone passionate about holistic health. It’s an education-fueled 5 days that gives you the inside-scoop on advanced practices working to build better health today. And if you’re even curious about becoming an FDN-P, you’ll get plenty of insight into our approach. Grab a front-row seat.
