'Episode 89 features Dr. Hannah Awai, a woman who values passion, connection, growth and contribution.    Work life started early for Hannah by way of delivering newspaper and waiting tables as a teenager in Colorado.  After completing undergraduate and medical school at Brown University, she launched into the healthcare field. She completed training in Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition.  She has provided clinical care in hospital, outpatient clinic, and urgent care settings.  She has also been part of clinical research studies spanning topics such as Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease and advanced liver imaging.  Currently, Hannah is the Medical Director of a federally funded program that serves chronically ill children from low income families in California.  This role includes making medical eligibility decisions, working with the regional hospital systems and insurance companion to assure the program runs smoothly, and working on policy with the California Department of Health Care Services.  Hannah finds balance outside her career by enjoying fitness and travel.  She coaches classes at OrangeTheory Fitness and enjoys seeing members through workouts that challenge them physically and mentally.  She also teaches group fitness at various resorts throughout Mexico and the Caribbean.  One of her personal goals is to explore 3 countries every year. She especially enjoys warm locations near the ocean.  When not engaged in the things above, you can find her listening to Janet Jackson, dancing in the living room, laughing and enjoying chocolate and ice cream.
