In today's episode, we have invited Maureen Michele Petersen, MD. She is an award-winning leader, life coach, author, and physician. As a general pediatrician and allergist/immunologist, she has spent her career caring for patients with a variety of acute and chronic health problems. She is a military veteran and has enjoyed using her story-telling talent to teach young physicians the art of medicine. She is an accomplished life coach who helps parents of chronically ill children regain control of their lives and thrive at fulfillment. Maureen is the mother of three amazing children and has first-hand experience with being a parent of a child with long-term health issues. Maureen enjoys jumping rope, hiking, and playtime with her two extraordinary four-legged sidekicks!
Maureen's story of advocating for her daughter through childhood cancer and then again with type 1 diabetes is a beautiful picture of the work we are called to. She casts a vision for us to be teammates with our child's providers and remember that they are also human, doing their best.
