Show notes

Nancy Harazduk MEd, MSW discusses how to leverage these uncertain times as your opportunity for personal growth. Nancy shares with us how becoming a single mom and attending a stress management program changed her life, propelling her into her current work as the Mind Body Medicine (MBM) Director at the Georgetown University School of Medicine. She defines what MBM means and takes us through the different Mindy Body approaches. Nancy also has words of wisdom for everyone - from the med students and healthcare workers to all of you dealing with the many issues during this current pandemic.

009. How Do You Define Health? With Anthony Masiello Jul 26, 2020

Show notes

My 8th guest as part of my Launch Series is a person I feel a special kinship with as we share a common purpose to help others lead healthier lives. So happy to have him here. Anthony Masiello has been working in healthcare for more than 20 years. His career started by working on bioinformatics with the Human Genome Project then transitioned to pharmaceutical research. But his unbelievable health journey, losing over 150 pounds and successfully keeping it off since 2005, took him down a different path that eventually led to his discovery of Lifestyle Medicine. So Anthony then shifted his career to focus on the prevention and reversal of chronic disease through his new tele health startup, Plant Based TeleHealth, the first national lifestyle telemedicine service. And he’s here to share with you his definition of health. I hope Anthony’s message helps to redefine what health means for you.

001. The Lives that Saved Mine: Dr. Jonar de Guzman, M.D Jul 25, 2020

Show notes

On my very first episode of the Glass Half Healthy, I take you through my journey to get here. The Lives that Saved Mine is not just the title of the episode but really, the theme of my life. And my journey is not mine alone, it started with my parents moving to the U.S. to provide us with opportunities for a better future. I discuss how losing my father inspired me from my prior career pursuits in international affairs to become a doctor. I also talk about my struggles, failures and triumphs along this path. Through it all, I reclaimed my health, reignited my passion for medicine and renewed my love for life but I did not get here by myself.

So, The Lives that Saved Mine is dedicated to not just my parents, but all the people - my family, my friends, fellow physicians, mentors and all the patients I’ve cared for - who helped me get here, in this moment, to help you redefine what health should mean for all of us. I hope my story inspires you to take action towards a happier and healthier life. Love, Dr. Jonar
