Description

After years of treating patients, Dr. Michelle Choi had a moment of clarity that rocked her to her core: she wasn't really helping anyone, and after all these years, she had lost sight of herself. The only way to reclaim some decency would be to demand a big change.

After working her entire life to become a doctor, Michelle achieved her dream but realized it wasn't what she expected. Instead of helping patients feel well, she answered corporate medicine's unrealistic expectations and practiced assembly-line healthcare.

Feeling deceived about what it meant to be a doctor, Michelle did what most doctors are afraid to do: she left her career to discover real wellness. On her journey, she learned to listen again and talk about things that matter, which included educating herself about the mind-body connection, generational trauma, and adverse childhood experiences as she also embraced herself.

Michelle discovered that her problems started long before medical school. She realized that her identity had never belonged to her; it was embedded in her enmeshed family of origin.

Untangling chronicles Michelle's journey of freeing herself from an oppressive career and family. What felt like a stereotypical midlife crisis turned out to be the catalyst for a life on her terms, and she survived it with her sense of humor intact. Her story offers valuable and entertaining insights into health, corporate medicine, and healing from generational and enmeshment trauma.
