The Healing Bridge: Dr. Sherri Greene's Transformative Blend of Eastern and Western Practices

This week, Ivy Slater, host of Her Success Story, chats with her guest, Dr. Sherri Greene. The two talk about the evolution of Dr. Sherri Greene's career from traditional podiatric surgery to pioneering a practice that fuses Eastern and Western medicine, the unique challenges women leaders face in maintaining energy and health, and practical steps anyone can take for true restorative wellness. In this episode, we discuss: How confusing and overwhelming the current health and nutrition landscape can be, especially given conflicting information from both experts and social media. What practical steps women can take to maintain energy and wellness as leaders, including the importance of hydration, balanced nutrition (especially fruit and leafy greens), and listening to one's own body. When Dr. Sherri Greene made her significant career pivot, from a gradual early shift to a major transformation around 2016. Why many women leaders struggle with constant fatigue, health shifts due to menopause, and the challenge of balancing personal well-being with multiple responsibilities. How following your inner calling, even if it's different from the norm, can be essential for fulfillment and making an impact, especially for women leaders. Dr. Sherri Joy Greene is a podiatric physician, surgeon, and restorative medicine specialist who has spent over 33 years helping people find answers that conventional medicine couldn't provide. What began as a classically trained surgical career evolved into something far more expansive — a practice built on uncovering the root causes behind chronic pain, mystery illness, autoimmune conditions, and the kind of exhaustion that high-achieving people learn to hide. Her journey hasn't been only clinical. Like many of the patients she now serves, Dr. Greene faced her own health challenges — and those years of searching, discovering, and ultimately healing became the foundation of everything she does today. She understands what it means to keep showing up professionally while quietly struggling, and that lived experience infuses her work with a depth of compassion that goes far beyond the medical. Drawing on training in functional nutrition, functional medicine, craniosacral therapy, Reiki, herbal medicine, homeopathy, and energy medicine — woven together with decades of clinical science — she helps people navigate the overwhelming, often conflicting landscape of health information to find a path that actually works for them. Dr. Greene is the co-founder of Ask the Docs, an educational platform supporting both practitioners and patients in bridging conventional and integrative approaches to healing. She is passionate about empowering people — especially driven, accomplished women — to stop white-knuckling their way through their days and start building a life rooted in genuine, sustainable health. Her message is simple: you are not broken, you are not alone, and healing is possible. Social Media Links: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-sherri-greene-9114381ab/
