Our guest this week is Dr. Maria Guzman - a sleep and obesity medicine specialist. Her vision for patient care goes far beyond prescriptions and protocols. In this episode, she shares how burnout pushed her to build something different—her own private practice rooted in lifestyle medicine, mindfulness, and compassion.

After recognizing the limits of insurance-based care just six months into her first job, Dr. Guzman began the journey of creating Dream Life Medicine and Wellness. From considering telemedicine to securing a physical office, her approach has evolved to align with her values and her community.

She talks openly about the challenges of entrepreneurship, the importance of community and accountability, and the joy of staying curious as she weaves in new areas like menopause and mind-body medicine.
