Description:
You've done the labs, your doctor says everything looks normal, and yet you still don't feel like yourself. What if normal was never the goal?
In this episode of Grow Your Wellth, I sit down with Dr. Liz Dulaney-Cripe, orthopedic surgeon turned founder of Valivera Health, about the practice she built to fill one of the biggest gaps in medicine: the space between chasing symptoms and truly feeling your best. Dr. Liz shares how her own realization that the "magic scalpel" couldn't fix everything led her toward integrative and lifestyle medicine, and why the real power lies in bridging traditional medical expertise with hormones, nutrition, and whole-person care.
We get honest about the everyday habits high performers often neglect, why restorative sleep and protein and a simple ten-minute walk move the needle more than any trendy peptide, and why the labs your annual physical runs often aren't illuminating enough to explain why you feel drained. Dr. Liz also brings a refreshingly grounded take on the noisy world of online HRT and social media health advice, reminding us there's no magic bullet, that off-label doesn't mean reckless, and that the goal is a measured, data-driven plan rather than a million tweaks at once.
Whether you're running on empty or simply suspect you could feel better, this conversation is a powerful reminder that you don't have to feel bad to want to feel better, and that investing in yourself deserves the same intention you give your business.
