    EP 312: Fusing East & West Practices for Motherhood w/ Dr. Shivani Gupta

    Dr. Shivani Gupta is a busy wife and mother of two who understands the challenges modern women face when it comes to putting their health and well-being first. Unfortunately for many women self-care has become a dirty word and yet another unrealistic expectation on their never-ending to-do list.
    Dr. Shivani created her revolutionary Modern Ayurveda program and Fusionary Formulas to fuse East and West practices for self-care, digestion, stress reduction, and metabolism. Her goal is to ensure no more women sacrifice their health for the life they deserve.

Lmullahey ,

Love this podcast!

I have been listening to this podcast for a long time and I have gotten so much education and different perspectives from Liz and all the guests that come on. I love that Liz works hard to have highly educated guests to really expose her listeners to different views and discussions. I am in my 2nd pregnancy and have listened to this podcast since ttc with my first and I love all the information and resources that Liz talks about and all the great guests she brings on.

Listen to Liz!

This podcast has been a great source of information for me as I prepare for another birth. Even though it’ll be my 3rd birth I am still learning so much. Highly recommend this show!
