Meet your podcast host: Hey Wellness Warriors! I’m Mylaine Riobé (that’s pronounced Mee-Len Ree-o-bay). I figured out pretty quickly that med school didn’t exactly prepare me for my clients’ biggest complaint: exhaustion and burnout. To resolve my own burnout, I realized I had to go beyond the textbooks and traditional medical training to find real answers—and now I’m committed to helping others do the same. The most important things I’ve learned as a doctor came after I hung up that diploma, and I’m here to share that hard-earned knowledge with you. If you’re done being tired all the time, I’m ready to guide you through it.
I’m a board certified medical doctor specializing in integrative and functional medicine, with a solid background in Eastern/Chinese medicine, which I studied for 5 years after my OB/GYN board certification. I completed a 2-year Chinese medicine internship with my mentors, Drs. Liping Chang and Fu, Di. As a board-certified OB/GYN, I found out the key to overcoming burnout and preventing diseases didn’t come from med school—it came from my own journey of tackling these challenges head-on with the additional training I completed in functional/integrative medicine and Chinese medicine!
I founded Awakened Wellness in 2022 and served as the Medical Director of the Riobe Institute of Integrative Medicine from 2009-2023 when I decided to move back to NYC! From 2018 - 2023, I shared my insights on the Awakened Wellness Now Podcast, helping others crush burnout and thrive. Now you can join me on my new podcast “The Burnout Resolution” every Wednesday at noon ET. My entrepreneurial spirit drove me to create programs that actually make a difference—no fluff, just real results. Along the way, I’ve picked up a few accolades, including being named Top Doc in Jupiter, Florida, in 2020. I’m also the author of ”FAITH: Fearlessly Affirming and Intending to Transform Health” and ”The Answer to Cancer,” and a co-author of the Amazon best-seller Empowered Aging. All this reflects my dedication to transforming health and empowering people to live their best lives - burnout-free!
I’m a proud mom of two amazing Gen Z’ers and a fitness enthusiast. Fun fact: I won my first figure competition just six months after giving birth. Before that, I was the first basketball player in my high school to score 1,000 points and got recruited to play Division 1 basketball for Columbia University. I’ve also dived deep into Shamanism and meditation, bringing even more depth to my approach to health. After completing my board-certification in OB-GYN, I found out the hard way that all those years of training didn’t prepare me for the most important mission of all: helping my clients prevent diseases and resolve burnout! With 20+ years of experience, I’ve dedicated my career to helping clients get their energy, vitality and joy back for good!
Let’s get you back on track—without all the unnecessary noise.
Blessings,
- Dr. Mylaine Riobe

We’ll also look at the real culprits behind bloating, fatigue, brain fog, and nutrient loss — yeast overgrowth and SIBO — and how these conditions disrupt your health in ways parasites rarely do. You’ll learn how to tell the difference between a die-off reaction and a dangerous side effect, why your liver and metabolism must be supported during treatment, and how a balanced, test-don’t-guess approach restores gut health for the long term.

Have you seen the viral “fiber-maxxing” trend on TikTok — piling beans, oats, chia seeds, and psyllium into every meal? Sounds healthy, right? Not so fast.In this episode, I reveal why fiber isn’t always your friend — especially if you have hidden gut issues like SIBO or dysbiosis.

Fiber is supposed to be healthy — so why does “fiber-maxxing” leave so many people bloated, drained, and worse than before?
In this episode of The Burnout Resolution Podcast, Dr. Mylaine Riobé breaks down the viral fiber-maxxing trend and explains why it can be a powerful litmus test for hidden gut imbalances like SIBO and dysbiosis.
Using the gut garden analogy, Dr. Riobé shows how fiber acts like fertilizer: in a healthy garden, it nourishes fruits and vegetables (ally microbes that boost energy and resilience). But in a weedy garden, it grows overgrowth that steals nutrients, inflames your system, and fuels burnout.

Meet your podcast host: Hey Wellness Warriors! I’m Mylaine Riobé (that’s pronounced Mee-Len Ree-o-bay). I figured out pretty quickly that med school didn’t exactly prepare me for my clients’ biggest complaint: exhaustion and burnout. To resolve my own burnout, I realized I had to go beyond the textbooks and traditional medical training to find real answers—and now I’m committed to helping others do the same. The most important things I’ve learned as a doctor came after I hung up that diploma, and I’m here to share that hard-earned knowledge with you. If you’re done being tired all the time, I’m ready to guide you through it.
I’m a board certified medical doctor specializing in integrative and functional medicine, with a solid background in Eastern/Chinese medicine, which I studied for 5 years after my OB/GYN board certification. I completed a 2-year Chinese medicine internship with my mentors, Drs. Liping Chang and Fu, Di. As a board-certified OB/GYN, I found out the key to overcoming burnout and preventing diseases didn’t come from med school—it came from my own journey of tackling these challenges head-on with the additional training I completed in functional/integrative medicine and Chinese medicine!
I founded Awakened Wellness in 2022 and served as the Medical Director of the Riobe Institute of Integrative Medicine from 2009-2023 when I decided to move back to NYC! From 2018 - 2023, I shared my insights on the Awakened Wellness Now Podcast, helping others crush burnout and thrive. Now you can join me on my new podcast “The Burnout Resolution” every Wednesday at noon ET. My entrepreneurial spirit drove me to create programs that actually make a difference—no fluff, just real results. Along the way, I’ve picked up a few accolades, including being named Top Doc in Jupiter, Florida, in 2020. I’m also the author of ”FAITH: Fearlessly Affirming and Intending to Transform Health” and ”The Answer to Cancer,” and a co-author of the Amazon best-seller Empowered Aging. All this reflects my dedication to transforming health and empowering people to live their best lives - burnout-free!
I’m a proud mom of two amazing Gen Z’ers and a fitness enthusiast. Fun fact: I won my first figure competition just six months after giving birth. Before that, I was the first basketball player in my high school to score 1,000 points and got recruited to play Division 1 basketball for Columbia University. I’ve also dived deep into Shamanism and meditation, bringing even more depth to my approach to health. After completing my board-certification in OB-GYN, I found out the hard way that all those years of training didn’t prepare me for the most important mission of all: helping my clients prevent diseases and resolve burnout! With 20+ years of experience, I’ve dedicated my career to helping clients get their energy, vitality and joy back for good!
Let’s get you back on track—without all the unnecessary noise.
Blessings,
- Dr. Mylaine Riobe
