A Monday Moment with Dr. Mal

The Move Was The Medicine
EPISODE 53 • SEASON 00:36:12

In this episode, I’m sharing what it really meant for me to move to Mexico—and why the move itself became the medicine.


This wasn’t just a change of location. It was a choice rooted in safety, faith, and listening to my body when it said, enough. I talk openly about what it took to make the move, the challenges that came with it, and the unexpected ways this environment has supported my healing—and my son’s well-being too.


I reflect on how place matters, how community finds you when you’re ready to receive it, and how spirituality deepens when your nervous system can finally rest. Most of all, I offer this as an invitation: to consider how movement—big or small—might be the medicine your soul has been asking for.


If you’re in a season of transition, release, or re-alignment, this show is for you.
