Episode 233: Tammy Frost

Tammy Frost is a highly experienced PA with a laundry list of awards, honors, certificates, and degrees. She practices medicine at her own private practice, Grace Direct Primary Care, where she helps patients to heal by taking a holistic approach to health and well being. Specifically, at her practice they practice a Glorified, functional Approach to Celestial Eudaimonia. Eudaimonia is a Greek word that is difficult to translate into English, but the rough translation is “good spirit” in other words “happiness”. Aristotle believed it meant the highest human good-living well and doing well.
