Gabby Reece sits down with Jiaming Ju, a former economist turned Chinese medicine practitioner, to explore the root causes of health and healing. Jiaming shares how personal trauma, including losing her home in a fire, led her to embrace acceptance, grounding, and traditional practices. They discuss the cultural differences in health issues between the U.S. and China, especially how emotional well-being and lifestyle shape physical health. The conversation highlights the importance of patient-centered care, especially around women’s health topics like fertility, menopause, and menstrual cycles. Through the lens of Chinese medicine, they emphasize self-awareness, emotional connection, and the power of personalized healing.
