Hey, Survivor!
In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Regina Ragasa, a triple board-certified physician in Family Medicine, Lifestyle Medicine, and Obesity Medicine. We’re talking about the gap between health knowledge and real-life behavior change.
We explore why trauma survivors often struggle to implement what they already know about health, and how shame, stress, and survival responses can interfere with sustainable lifestyle change.
During our conversation, Dr. Ragasa explains her LIVEN Method—a framework centered on Listening, Imperfection, Validation, Empowerment, and Normalization—to help clinicians and patients build trust and create lasting change through human connection. She also talks about the “humble plate” vs. celebratory foods, and how cultural food traditions and identity come into play.
If you’ve ever struggled with knowing what to do but not being able to follow through, this episode is for you. Connect with Dr. Regina Ragasa: Instagram: @CaliWellnessDoc Website: CaliWellnessDPC.comKnow who you're dealing with. Know who you are.
