How did Cultivating Self start?

A pediatric trauma ICU nurse, deeply concerned by the limitations of traditional healthcare and the growing burnout among medical professionals, embarked on a mission to revolutionize the industry. Witnessing the toll that stress and exhaustion took on both patients and providers, she envisioned a healthcare system that embraced a more holistic approach, rooted in the wisdom of nature.

​

With a small but determined team, she founded this nonprofit organization dedicated to bridging ancient modalities with modern medicine. Their goal is to empower healthcare providers with the tools to reconnect with the natural world, harnessing the healing power of the elements and incorporating ancient wisdom into their practice. By fostering a deeper understanding of these concepts, they aim to equip healthcare professionals with the tools to address burnout, enhance their well-being, and ultimately improve patient care.
