The interview

What was the overall value of investing in the mentorship?

It was totally worthwhile investing into the mentorship because it gave me so much more confidence working with fertility couples, and also helped me to get my practice running more smoothly.

What is your professional background and location?

I'm Dr. Carola Kissel, and I'm located in Germany near Frankfurt. I'm trained as a functional nutritionist.

Why did you seek out Dr. Aumatma specifically?

When it comes to fertility there is information out there but not a lot of training. So I was looking for someone who could help me with fertility-specific training from a functional medicine or holistic point of view, and so because this is very specific, Dr. Aumatma seemed to be the right person.

What was your situation before starting the mentorship?

When I started the mentorship, I was already working with couples, helping them with their fertility issues. And I was pretty successful already, but still I was missing somebody who was challenging me.

How did the mentorship impact you on a personal and professional level?

On the functional medicine side, there are lots of people, but nobody, really, or I don't know anyone who is doing fertility work. And on the personal side, it gave me much more confidence working with the clients. I knew I was on the right track.

What are the unique pressures of working in the fertility field?

With fertility, there's a lot of pressure often on you because there is black or white. Either she will be pregnant or have a happy healthy baby or not. It's not like with weight loss where 10 pounds less is great. It's very emotional, and often there is a lot of self-doubt, although you know you're doing the right things, basically. It was good to have somebody on your side.

What was the major operational impact on your practice?

The major impact was, like, putting together a process or program, which is still very individual for each couple. And it's streamlining process optimization so that you don't have to reinvent the wheel for every client.

Who would you recommend this mentorship to?

So if you want to specialize on fertility and need a mentor on your side to help you figure out difficult cases, and want your practice to be very successful, Dr. Aumatma is for sure the right person to work with.

Frequently asked

Is there specialized functional medicine training specifically for fertility?

Dr. Carola Kissel noted that while general functional medicine information exists, there is a lack of specific training for fertility. She chose Dr. Aumatma because she offered a unique, holistic point of view tailored specifically to the complexities of fertility work.

How can a mentor help an already successful fertility practitioner?

Even though she was already successful, Dr. Kissel sought a mentor who could challenge her on the functional medicine side. She found that having Dr. Aumatma on her side helped overcome the self-doubt and emotional pressure inherent in high-stakes fertility cases.

Can a fertility mentorship help with business operations?

Yes, Dr. Kissel reported that the mentorship helped her practice run more smoothly by putting together a streamlined process. This allowed her to maintain individualized care for couples without having to reinvent her workflow for every new client.
