In this episode of the Midlife with Courage podcast, host Kim interviews Emily Jacobson, an acupuncturist, fitness instructor, and business owner. 

Emily shares her journey of realizing her true passion lies in hands-on practice rather than being a CEO. She discusses her pivot from launching a corporate wellness program to focusing on direct human interaction and the creation of her wellness center, Healing Roots. 

Emily elaborates on the different modalities offered at her center, the importance of calming the nervous system for overall wellness, and her future plans to specialize in hormone management and women's health. 

The episode emphasizes the importance of self-care, adaptability, and the continual learning process in personal and professional growth.
