You likely know by now that this podcast is all about health and business and the success correlation between the two. Today’s guest, Dr. Laura DeCesaris, is a functional medicine doctor and health strategist who specializes in women’s health and high performance. She works with driven, ambitious women and men looking to rebuild their metabolism so that they can experience optimal brain health, body composition, and natural vitality. 

Like most of us, our personal experiences can lead us down a path to our purpose and Dr. Laura walks us through her background and how she got into this profession. This episode is packed for professionals with topics including:

• How and why it’s important for patients to ask questions and advocate for themselves
• How to look for symptoms of stress
• Why she hates the term work/life balance & prefers work/life alignment
• How stress and aging are related

I am incredibly grateful that Dr. Laura shared such great insight and wisdom from experience with us on the show. I promise this is not an episode you want to miss, it’s worth your time invested!
