Today I speak with Dr. Lamess Hamdan, who left the professional medical field early in her career to pursue alternative health. We talk about the realities of what it’s like to be a woman entrepreneur, the importance of discipline and resilience, and making sure you take opportunities when they present themselves to you.

This was a great conversation, and she’s an inspiring person to listen to. You’re going to love it!
