From Sick Girl to Thriving Woman: Dr. Maria's Personal Health Journey
Dr. Maria hosts the Beyond Medicine: Humanized Care for Women of Influence podcast, where she goes beyond surface-level solutions to transform women's health. In this episode, Dr. Maria shares her journey from a 'sick girl' suffering from multiple health issues like asthma, type 2 diabetes, and chronic back pain, to becoming a 'thriving woman.' She outlines how her experiences with these conditions and learning about food, movement, and emotional health impacts have shaped her holistic and compassionate approach to treating patients. Dr. Maria emphasizes the importance of addressing root causes, particularly metabolic dysfunction, and how trauma can impact overall well-being. She provides insights into healing naturally and offers care for women and their teenage daughters focused on metabolic, hormonal, and mental health issues.
