Welcome back to another episode of Chronicles of a Virgo Podcast. This week, I am joined by Dr. Bolanle Akinronbi, a board certified, residency trained physician in Psychiatry who is devoted to empowering people to live a meaningful life. She is also a graduate of Rutgers University and Rutgers -New Jersey Medical School (formerly UMDNJ). She completed her postgraduate residency training in Psychiatry at the Zucker Hillside Hospital (formerly of NorthShore-LIJ) in Queens New York.

In this episode we discussed:

-Motivation behind her pursuing career path in the mental health field

-Finding balance in your life and the importance of self-care practices with a busy lifestyle

-Knowing when it's time to seek professional support for mental health

-Mental reprogramming and changing your internal beliefs

-Easy and effective self-care and therapeutic practices to begin your mental health and healing journey

Dr. Bolanle is the founder and CEO at Bright Minds MD, a private psychiatry practice in NJ where together with her team, she offers a unique and whole person approach to treatment. Her treatment recommendations follow a wholistic model.

This model accounts for the contributions of childhood experiences, genetic predisposition, environmental and social stressors, co-occurring illnesses, nutrition deficiencies, current function and activity to disease AND a pathway to improve them using a hybrid of medication and lifestyle/behavioral modifications.

Remember to embrace your journey, knowing that each challenge you overcome brings you closer to greater strength and resilience. Ways to connect with Dr. Bolanle:
