Today's guest is Dr. Elizabeth Blades.

Elizabeth describes her regime of self-care and how this program of self-care was crucial to her healing journey in the midst of turmoil. Elizabeth so generously shares her story, offers us her perspectives, and life philosophies. Elizabeth also explains how our intuition is smarter than our brain and we must trust what our intuition is trying to tell us. Her attitude of “This too shall pass” is extremely profound and is one that can help us all during these times of chaos and the anxiety of today’s society.
