Description On June 5th at 3 PM EST, Teatime with Miss Liz welcomes Monica DuBeau — entrepreneur, former IBM executive, AI compliance leader, author, advocate, and survivor whose extraordinary journey transformed personal crisis into purposeful impact. After spending 25 years building a successful corporate career that included leadership roles at JPMorgan Chase, IBM, and co-founding an AI compliance company, Monica’s life took an unexpected turn when mysterious symptoms began disrupting her daily life. Despite years of seeking answers, she was repeatedly dismissed, misdiagnosed, and told her symptoms were stress-related. Refusing to accept uncertainty, Monica applied the same investigative mindset that fueled her professional success. After tracking 111 medical appointments across 26 providers, she ultimately uncovered the truth: she was living with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) and Craniocervical Instability (CCI), a rare condition requiring highly specialized brain and spinal surgery.
