Tracy Duhs believes that optimal health is a fundamental right for all humanity, not just a privilege for a select few. Helping people look and feel their best has been Tracy’s life-long mission. Growing up in a missionary home cultivated her profound sense of compassion and her desire to help others. By the time she was 15, Tracy had already begun her undergraduate education in medicine. At 16, Tracy shadowed a missionary doctor working in an indigenous village in Guatemala, where she gained hands-on surgical and medical training. The time she spent there opened her eyes, her heart, and ultimately changed her life. Tracy decided to forgo a traditional allopathic career in favor of one that focused on regenerative care and education. She holds a PhD in Integrative Medicine, founder of The Sanctuary Wellness Center in San Diego, CA and host of the Hydrate podcast.   Follow Tracy @tracyduhs Follow Chase @chase_chewning     Ever Forward Radio is made possible by our proud partners!
