The interview
What was your life like before joining Living Proof Institute?
I was really in a struggle. I had just left a toxic corporation, and I was back in college. I had a lot on my plate, was experiencing COVID, some mental health issues, and including being a survivor of two unusual aneurysms called pancreaticoduodenal artery aneurysms, and decided that I needed really to take my health and mental health to another level.
What made you say yes to Living Proof Institute?
Being coached by Dr. Aron Choi; they are just an amazing team. Aron really encouraged me to be part of this team and then, of course, working with Dipa, Sachin, and Alice was just an added bonus. Their approach is so different from what I've tried in the past. Sachin and Dipa come from a place of love and so does their team, and at that time in my life, that's really what I needed.
What surprised you the most about the program?
What surprised me the most is I never thought I could do intermittent fasting and I didn't realize how good intermittent fasting would make me feel. I had an amazing coach, Alice, who really worked me through the process with the whole team and the tribe of 50 like-minded people.
How has your perspective on health changed because of this experience?
I now look through healing and health through a whole new lens. Food heals, being in a tribe heals, being supported by other members heals—there's nowhere to go but forward when you are part of this team. I feel even in my own journey that our body has this amazing ability to heal itself yet it's so overlooked.
How are you applying what you learned in your own work?
I actually stepped back for the last couple months and I revamped my metabolic reset so I can help empower women to feel fabulous in their forties and their fifties and their sixties and beyond. If I had not done this, I definitely do not think I would be in helping people release weight. I did that for 14 years, and I really thought 'Ugh, I need to get out of weight loss.' But it's just such a simple way.
Why would you recommend Living Proof Institute to others?
Especially as a healthcare practitioner, if you really want to take your practice to another level and if you really want to help with the transformation of your clients, this is a really great way. If you really want to get to the root cause of your chronic health issues or you want to help others to do the same, your life will change being a part of this dynamic team, and you will learn so much in a twelve week time frame.
Frequently asked
Can I succeed with intermittent fasting if I've never done it before?

Is Living Proof Institute suitable for healthcare professionals?
Yes, Mary recommends it specifically for healthcare practitioners who want to take their practice to another level. She explains that the simple, beautiful process allows practitioners to better help clients with weight release and internal transformation.
