From Pharmacist to Purpose: Whitney Prude's Journey of Health Empowerment
Manage episode 451179000 series 3557019
Join me, Dr. Jewel White-Williams, as I sit down with the inspiring Whitney Prude, a board-certified clinical pharmacist turned wellness coach, who shares her incredible journey of transformation. After receiving a life-changing autoimmune disease diagnosis, Whitney was forced to re-evaluate her career path and ultimately embraced her true calling as a motivational speaker and wellness advocate. Her story is a powerful testament to resilience and adaptability, as she transitioned from her initial dream of working in clinical pharmacy to empowering others to transform their health and lives.
We don't often hear about the critical role pharmacists play in healthcare, but Whitney and I explore their essential contributions to medication safety and patient wellness. Pharmacists are not just dispensers of medication; they are educators and increasingly, business owners, blending traditional medicine with holistic practices. By understanding the root causes of health issues, rather than just treating symptoms, we can guide patients toward sustainable health improvements. Together, Whitney and I highlight the importance of addressing mental and emotional health as part of this holistic approach to care.
Emotional eating can often be a hurdle in achieving true wellness, and we tackle this topic head-on. By understanding the emotional triggers behind unhealthy behaviors and asking ourselves key questions, we can uncover the emotions driving these impulses and work towards holistic well-being. It's all about stress management, adequate sleep, and self-prioritization. Whitney shares insights on making joyful lifestyle choices, like the occasional indulgence in cold-pressed juices, as part of maintaining a balanced life. For more inspiration and support, connect with Whitney through her website, mywholeandhappylife.com, and embark on your journey towards a whole and happy life.
