113. When the Doctor Becomes the Patient w/ Dr. Kristin Reihman
In this compelling podcast episode, we spoke with Kristin Reihman, MD — physician, mother, author, and Lyme disease survivor — as she candidly shares her personal journey as both a patient and doctor. Beyond merely treating symptoms, Dr. Reihman advocates for a holistic approach to health, challenging the conventional norms of the allopathic medical system.
Having recovered herself from a debilitating case of Lyme over a decade ago, Dr. Reihman knows all too well what it is to live with a body that feels like it's falling apart, a brain that has forgotten how to do simple math, and the fear that you're going to die from an illness that is invisible to most people. She also knows how to make a complete recovery, and has done that for herself. Now, she is on a mission to help as many people as possible recover their own most vibrant versions of themselves, and get back to living their amazing lives. She shares her favorite tools, practices, and mindset shifts for whole-person healing and wellness in her book, on weekly episodes of her Healing Grove Podcast, and in the online communities she cultivates, including the Healing Grove Membership, on Instagram, and in her latest offering, the Life After Lyme Coaching Program.

We delve into the intricacies of American physicians' training, highlighting the need for a more comprehensive understanding of health. Dr. Kristin Reihman's story takes an unexpected turn as she shares her principled decision to leave a local hospital network and traditional practice due to her stance against a mandatory vaccine. This bold move becomes the focal point of our conversation, sparking reflections on values, medical freedom and divine intervention.
