Today we're introducing you to Dr. Julie Foucher, a board-certified family physician who completed her coursework through the Institute for Functional Medicine. She received her undergraduate degree from the University of Michigan in Biomedical Engineering and completed her medical school and residency training at the Cleveland Clinic. Julie also holds a Master's in Nutrition from Case Western Reserve University and has completed the Integrative Medicine in Residency curriculum through the University of Arizona.

We start off by having Dr. Foucher share her story and the path that led her to functional medicine, as well as what exactly functional medicine means and how she uses it in her practice at Wild Health. (Which is also an incredible company that she elaborates on here - all about personalized health coaching with qualified healthcare providers to walk you through every step of your journey!)

We also talk about guiding principles with nutrition and her experience with competing in the CrossFit games from 2010-2015, where she consistently finished among the top 5 women with two podium finishes!

Julie's passion truly lies in bridging the gap between fitness and medicine to empower individuals to live healthier, more fulfilling lives, and she shares a ton of wisdom and expertise in this episode!
