Memorable Quotes:
"Part of the journey for me as a practitioner to grow has been to really discover… lean into the fact that there is no such thing as one-size-fits-all advice for blood sugar control that affects everyone evenly — people have bio-individual responses." [00:13:20] – Dr. Beverly Yates
"You need to be able to eat meals, and you need to be able to drink water and go to the bathroom… Be kind to yourself. Those things. We're in this physical form — we gotta respect that. We have real needs too. And frankly, your patients and clients want to see you taking care of yourself because it empowers them." [00:26:08] – Dr. Beverly Yates
