Episode 40 - Dr Hokehe Eko
Dr. Hokehe Eko wears many hats! She is a mother of three lovelies, an Integrative Pediatrician, CEO of Glow Pediatrics and TedX Speaker, who partners with parents of children with ADHD and Autism to address the root causes of their children's behaviors and boost their Brain Health using Integrative Medicine. She is also CEO of Kids of Hope, a non-profit organization sharing love, hope, and dignity with children in foster care.
After sustaining brain injuries herself, she was told it was impossible to become a pediatrician, but she uses her experiences of thriving with obstacles to help children with ADHD/Autism and children in foster care see themselves as capable of fulfilling their dreams.
