The Wellness Process

In today's episode, Elizabeth sits down with Dr. Felice Chan, a doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine and co-founder of the skincare line Moonbo, for a TCM 101. Felice shares why she left a pre-med path in Western medicine for Chinese medicine, and how her own acne after coming off hormonal birth control led her deeper into it. She explains what it means to run hot, cold, damp, or dry, and why iced matcha and smoothies may be working against your digestion. They also talk about how TCM approaches cycles and fertility, including how acupuncture can support induction. Felice closes with what inspired her to bring Chinese medicine into skincare.If you want to go DEEPER with me, my Substack is where I share even more behind-the-scenes, personal reflections, and wellness experiments, with new posts dropping every Thursday: https://substack.com/@thewellnessprocessFollow Dr. Felice Chan:https://www.instagram.com/drfelicechan/?hl=enFollow us:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thewellnessprocesspodTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thewellnessprocessYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheWellnessProcessSponsors:Pique: Get 15% off Pique's Sun Goddess Matcha at piquelife.com/wellnessMonarch: Get 50% off your first year of Monarch Core at monarch.com with code WELLNESSCozy Earth: Head to cozyearth.com and let them know you heard about us on The Wellness Process in the post-purchase surveyJolie: Try Jolie risk-free for 60 days at jolieskinco.com/TWP (also available at Costco and Target, online and in store)Momentous: Get up to 35% off your entire first order at livemomentous.com with code TWPProduced by Dear MediaSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
