Today's conversation is with Maria Cristina Jimenez OTR.

María Cristina, is an occupational therapist and a Certified Advanced Rolfer.  She has been a yoga teacher since 2001, a Rolfer® since 2012, and a Certified Advanced Rolfer® since 2016. In 2021 she became a registered and licensed OT, specializing in hand therapy. After surviving a horrific car accident and near-death experience at 15, she developed PTSD. Consequently, she's spent her entire life healing her body and helping to heal others. She brings decades of deep somatic studies as well as insights from living with PTSD. María Cristina holds a BA in Theatre and a minor in Women’s Studies from Holy Cross in Worcester. She holds an MFA from The New School in Manhattan. Her second Master's is in occupational therapy from USC. She's also a Fulbright Scholar who researched murder of women by men motivated by sexism in Costa Rica. Originally from San Juan, Puerto Rico, she resides in Los Angeles.

In today's conversation we speak all about Maria Cristina's life history that has brought her through to all the work which she now offers. A rich talk indeed.
