In this episode of the Harmonic Alignment Podcast, Dr. Larisa connects with Jill Hollander, a certified life and health coach, speaker, and beacon of resilience whose life story is a masterclass in courage, reinvention, and unwavering self-belief.

With warmth, wit, and hard-won wisdom, she unpacks the pillars of her coaching philosophy: recognize your courage, reframe your challenge, and reclaim your voice.
