Welcome back to The Burnout Doctor Podcast with your host, Dr. Jessica Louie. Today we are continuing our Pharmacist Month special edition with guest, Dr. Christine Manukyan.
Dr. Christine Manukyan shares her journey through pharmacy as an immigrant from Armenia as a teenager to residency program in healthcare administration to desire to become a director of pharmacy. The last 13 years, Dr. Manukyan has worked as a hospital pharmacist in one of the highest acuity hospitals in Los Angeles, CA.
Dr. Manukyan shares how as her career was blooming, her health was declining. Like so many moms, she was suffering from burnout and letting her health go. The wake up call? At age 35, her physician telling her she’ll have a heart attack by age 40 if she didn’t change her lifestyle. She was handed a prescription for a cholesterol medication and sent on her way.
On her way to resetting her life, Dr. Manukyan manifested what was to come in life as she completely changed her perspective towards nutrition and wellness – going on to win a bodybuilding contest and having the energy she desired to be a mom with her kids.
Fast forward from 2015 to 2020 and Dr. Manukyan has now left her corporate position as a pharmacist and is a full-time entrepreneur as a functional medicine pharmacist. She is able to be a full-time mom while having a successful business – something that she wants to help 10 more pharmacist moms do the same in 2020-2021.
