Episode 31 Summary w/Tina Ghahramani-Singh, Licensed Acupuncturist, Doula, and Spiritual Life Coach
"The perimenopausal stage, I feel, is supposed to reveal to us, like, who we truly are, which you know, can be scary sometimes because it’s really big sometimes or it’s really vulnerable sometimes, right? And then all layers start falling off or peeling off. And you know, you have the snake skin that’s basically shedding, correct? It’s like you’re shedding everything you used to be. Well, that’s scary." - Tina Ghahramani Singh
Grab your favorite beverage or get on your walking shoes and ear buds and gather ‘round for another heart-to-heart conversation. Tina Ghahramani-Singh, an Iranian-American Acupuncturist and Chinese Medicine practitioner, shares her ongoing journey of healing from Lymes as she navigates perimenopause, raising two teenagers, and running two Acupuncture clinics in Orange County, California. Through deep self-reflection, finding a team of open-minded healthcare providers, and reconnecting with her ancestors, she highlights how embracing vulnerability, the messy and shitty parts of life, and going inward to find her authentic voice led to true wholeness and resilience. This conversation invites you to explore your ancestral roots, honor your authentic expression, and embrace the ongoing cycles of life with compassion, curiosity, and courage.
