  • It's here!

    After almost three months, I finally found time to sit down and record Jasper's birth story!

    Nothing about this birth went according to plan, but Jazz and I are both doing well now, and that's all that matters.

    I hope that this episode helps to encourage other mothers and families that their birth stories are valid, even if they aren't the natural births they might have dreamed of.

  • Maggie Yu, MD, IFMCP, is a highly respected family practice and certified functional medicine physician who graduated from UCLA School of Medicine and has been practicing for over 25 years. An author, mother, teacher, speaker, and thought leader, Dr. Yu has become a force to be reckoned with in the world of functional medicine. Her journey has been anything but ordinary.

    After developing mystery autoimmune symptoms postpartum and being diagnosed with an autoimmune disease at 36, Dr. Yu personally suffered from a range of chronic conditions, including fibromyalgia, early menopause, Hashimoto’s, chronic pain, depression, TMJ, and Mixed Connective Tissue Disorder. Battling her own debilitating health challenges, she recognized the limitations of conventional medicine. This profound personal experience became the catalyst for a career-altering deep dive into alternative methods of healing.

    A visionary in her field, Dr. Yu’s transformative approach combines the best of medical knowledge with holistic care. She developed her Transform Protocol, an online autoimmune and chronic disease program that comprehensively addresses the root cause and triggers of disease. This ground-breaking protocol has not only transformed her life but has also proven to be a beacon of hope for countless others suffering from similar afflictions. It goes beyond treating symptoms, targeting the root causes of health challenges to bring about lasting change.

    Over the past few decades, Dr. Yu has provided education and training on topics related to longevity and reversing chronic diseases. She has helped thousands of patients overcome chronic symptoms such as pain, fatigue, POTS, MCAS, autoimmune conditions, hormone imbalances, irritable bowel, depression, anxiety, brain fog, mental health conditions, and many more. Her success stories include hundreds of case studies demonstrating her approach’s effectiveness in alleviating these symptoms and more.

    In this episode, we cover:

    - how Dr. Yu's own health springboarded her into the functional space

    - signs and symptoms of POTS, long-haul, and dysautonomia

    - why we should always look at hormones
