"We can take every circumstance in our life and make it hell or heaven based on our intentions and the actions we choose to make and how we interact with everyone around us." BIO: Dr. Terry Wahls is more than a doctor. She's an educator, a speaker, an author, and she's also a patient. In 2000, she was diagnosed with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis. Dr. Wahls was determined not to let the disease control her life, so she began doing her own research. In December 2007, she began the Wahls Protocol® — a therapeutic diet and lifestyle program that focuses on functional medicine and nutrient-rich foods.   Mentioned In This Episode: Dr. Terry Wahls Website: https://terrywahls.com/amplify/ The Wahls Protocol® Health Practitioner Certification (Use code VIP to apply for certification for just $1): https://terrywahls.com/certification/ Dr. Terry Wahls on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drterrywahls    Links to resources: Health Coach Group Website: https://www.thehealthcoachgroup.com/ Use the code HCC50 to save $50 on our website Leave a Review of the Podcast
