The Body Whisperer: A Conversation with Dr. Phyllis Hubbard

"Even if it's just a seed, the solution is embedded within the problem."

Dr. Phyllis Hubbard (a.k.a. The Body Whisperer) talks about her holistic health journey with guest host Leslie Stoval. Dr. Hubbard suffered from the supposedly incurable COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) for nearly three decades before finding her way to Ayurveda and other holistic practices that helped her to be disease free and in support of transformational healing for others. Dr. Hubbard uplifts the connection between trauma and disease and the complicated task of overcoming the perception among Black Christian communities that holistic practices are somehow in violation to their own belief systems.

The third season of BlackFemaleProject's podcast takes a deep and broad dive into the Health Services sector. Episodes 1 through 3 offer insights from three Black women with careers in the medical realm, followed by three episodes that feature Black women who center social responsibility in their paths. Our final trio of season 3 lifts up the wisdom and journeys of Black women who operate with a holistic perspective. We hope you enjoy the distinctions and commonalities across these dynamic and accomplished women's experiences.
