The Position: 

Elix is seeking a part-time Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Herbal Consultant to join our team and support individuals on their journey to hormonal balance and improved menstrual health. Through an East-meets-West approach, you’ll empower community members to tune into their cycles and address hormonal imbalances using TCM herbs and lifestyle principles.

You’ll provide outstanding care and education, assist with community inquiries, and contribute to improving the overall Elix experience by channeling feedback to the rest of our team to continuously iterate, improve how we serve our community, and get more people to experience the benefits of Chinese herbs. 

This role is ideal for newly licensed acupuncturists looking to build confidence and experience and or advanced TCM students (final year) who have completed their formulas coursework and are prescribing herbs in clinical rotations. It’s an exciting opportunity to join a mission-driven team, help destigmatize menstrual health, and grow your TCM expertise while making a meaningful impact on others’ lives.

Please note: While we love all holistic health practitioners, please do not apply if you do not have a Chinese medicine background, you will not be considered. We are looking for qualified TCM practitioners with Chinese herbal knowledge.  

What you’ll do:

  • Deliver TCM related education and emotional support through personal interactions (both 1-on-1 and in small group settings) to Elix community members along key points of their wellness journey, actively listening and tailoring messaging appropriately, fostering trust and loyalty that translates into long term customer relationships. 
  • Educate, inspire, and empower Elix community members to make informed purchasing decisions and take action by explaining Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) concepts in easy to understand language, especially relating to common hormonal and menstrual symptoms and the associated pattern diagnoses.    
  • Identify opportunities to improve community members’ quality of life through suggesting appropriate Elix formulas and adoption of healthy lifestyle habits based on individual pattern diagnoses and TCM teachings. 
  • Maintain follow-up communication with community members via check-in calls, emails, and/or SMS using strong organizational skills.
  • Assist Community Experience Associates in answering TCM-related user questions. 
  • Serve as a liaison between the Elix community members and the Elix team to elevate themes from community member questions, identify trends for new educational and marketing content, and opportunities to improve the Elix experience and marketing funnel. 
  • Possible opportunities to create educational content (blogs, email, webinars, social media) and get involved in additional projects that further the Elix mission and business goals.  

Who You Are:

  • Chinese Medicine Practitioner: Master’s or Doctorate in TCM (or currently in the final year of your program with clinical herbal experience and completed formulas coursework).
  • Natural Teacher: Able to explain complex TCM concepts in a relatable and engaging way, tailoring messaging to each individual's learning style.
  • Motivational and Inspiring: Skilled at connecting with and inspiring people of diverse backgrounds, supporting with compassion, while motivating people to take action. 
  • Self-Starter: Thrive in a fast-paced, feedback-driven environment with minimal oversight.
  • Tech-Savvy: Confident using tools like Google Suite (Docs, Calendar, Sheets) and quick to learn new systems.
  • Mission-Driven: Passionate about holistic health and advancing women’s wellness through TCM and not afraid to use that passion to inspire people to buy Elix herbal formulas.
  • Creative Problem Solver: Brings innovative ideas to enhance community engagement and improve processes - appreciates challenging the status quo, with a mindset of ‘how can we do this even better?’
  • Team Player: Works collaboratively, contributes ideas to improve team performance, and embraces new opportunities with a positive attitude.

This Role Is for You If You:

  • Work well independently, are organized, and adapt easily to a fast-paced, ever-evolving environment.
  • Enjoy collaborating with a team to make a meaningful impact toward business goals.
  • Are comfortable with some ambiguity and thrive on figuring things out on your own.

This Role Is Not for You If You:

  • Struggle with remote work, are disorganized, or need high levels of oversight, constant training, or frequent reminders.
  • Are resistant to feedback or changes in a startup environment.

Stand-Out Candidates: 

  • Marketing, sales, and customer service experience are a plus!  
  • Familiar with coaching techniques like motivational interviewing, positive psychology, and goal setting. 
  • Experience writing blogs, emails, or SEO-optimized content.
  • Special interest or personal experience in menstrual and hormonal health supported by Chinese herbs.
