E2 - Michelle Smith on Women's Health + Creating a Purpose-Led Business

Michelle Smith is changing the face of women's health. She is an AHPRA registered acupuncturist, Chinese medicine herbalist, yoga facilitator, feminist, ocean enthusiast and business owner. From a corporate career and thriving life overseas, Michelle faced her own health challenges before taking a trusted leap of faith into studying and practising Chinese medicine. She empowers menstruators to live in flow with their cycles and sees a future where women, non-binary, trans-men and people assigned female at birth are taught to feel empowered in their bodies. She believes when we learn to flow with our cyclical nature rather than fight against it, we begin to lead, parent, love and live, better.  We had the most beautiful conversation on: Career evolutions - her turning point from corporate girl to Chinese medicine practitioner Overcoming enormous health challenges overseas  How to optimise our health one simple step at a time Managing energy and changing hormones at every age and stage Fueling ourselves so we can thrive in our businesses Connect with all things Michelle: Connect with Michelle on Instagram Check out Michelle's website Check out Michelle's brand new clinic in Brisbane, Ova Acupuncture Check out Michelle's podcast, The Periodical Pod
