Dr Marina Christov | Depleted, Drained: How to Get Your Energy Back

Is your energy depleted? Do your feel drained? What if the root of your exhaustion isn’t just in your schedule—but in your organs?

Di sits down with renowned Chinese Medicine practitioner Dr. Marina Christov, founder of The House of Life on the podcast to challenge the notion of why so many women are energetically depleted —and what your liver, kidneys, and nervous system are trying to tell you. With over 25 years of experience, Marina brings a rare blend of clinical wisdom, emotional insight, and unapologetic truth-telling to this deeply personal conversation.

Marina also shares her own story of rejection and resilience—from being dismissed for being “too personable” to building a thriving wellness practice grounded in compassion, feminine energy, and fierce intention.

 

In his episode, we explore:

  • Why so many women are energetically depleted—and what your liver, kidneys, and nervous system are trying to tell you
  • How emotions are stored in the body, and how Chinese medicine maps this connection
  • Why burnout, brain fog, and tension aren’t just physical—they’re symptoms of fragmentation
  • How self-understanding and energetic alignment can become your greatest tools for healing
