Angela Foster: 我经历了从公司律师到高效能教练的转变，这期间我经历了一段漫长而艰难的旅程。作为一名公司律师，我工作时间非常疯狂，完全不顾及睡眠和昼夜节律。后来，我发现自己患有多囊卵巢综合征和子宫内膜异位症，这给我带来了生育挑战。在生完孩子后，我患上了产后抑郁症，情况越来越糟，最终被诊断出患有重度抑郁症。我放弃了事业，想要专注于孩子，但自我价值感很低，甚至想过结束自己的生命。后来，我因为肺炎住院，发现自己已经完全精疲力尽。在医院里，我感受到了对孩子的爱和责任，决定要为了他们而康复。我做出康复的决定后，我的血液指标在48小时内开始好转，这表明了身心连接的力量。我的康复之旅最初是个人旅程，现在已经转变为帮助女性保持健康并实现健康与高效的结合。
