In this episode, Dawn Baker talks with Sara Whittingham. Sara is an anesthesiologist, Air Force veteran, endurance athlete, wife, and mom. Sara was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease in 2020, which shook her world and also prompted her to become a fierce advocate for both Parkinson's patients and veterans. 

In this episode, Sara shares her journey as a physician and a patient, navigating life events - both positive and negative - that she never would have imagined. We discuss her recent transition out of clinical medicine and her pivot to more advocacy work, in addition to how she takes care of her own physical, mental, and financial health.
