Rise & Shine meets Dr Emilia Vuorisalmi

Meet Dr. Emilia Vuorisalmi, a physician, hormone expert, Amazon #1 best-selling author, lecturer, actress, and entrepreneur. Known in Finland as "The Love Doctor," she’s the author of The Healing Power of Hormones and has dedicated her career to exploring the science of love and wellbeing. Fascinated by the power of emotions—and inspired by none other than George Clooney—Dr. Vuorisalmi chose to pursue medicine to better understand the chemistry behind human connection. “I had an existential crisis in med school—surgery felt isolating, and I wasn’t using my true superpowers,” says Dr. Emilia Vuorisalmi. A move to Hollywood with her then-husband opened new doors. She took acting classes and felt truly alive for the first time. After a few relationships and two kids, she realized she was addicted to love. That led her to research dopamine, serotonin, and oxytocin—work that became the foundation for her bestselling books and her nickname, "The Love Doctor."This is a powerful conversation about love, passion, addiction, identity, and finding balance by following your heart.Todays guest @docemilia Thanks to @hormonology.sePost production @framelab_sweProducer @shapebyshirin
