This week we will be playing you an episode of The More Sibyl Podcast hosted by Mo Sibyl. Here is a quick intro on the amazing life story you will be hearing today.

This is the much-anticipated story of the other woman – aka Dr. Diana Escobedo or Diana as Mo fondly calls her. Because you get “more” listening to the show, we also explored her life. In addition to the unique role she plays in our lives, Diana comes with her own story. She was raised in Mexico and grew up in a less-traditional household where children were given free reins to explore their unique individuality.

With this flippant freedom, Diana found herself pregnant at 16. Yet, she pushed through this and completed medical school only to be bedridden for almost two years. With her liver failing, and a looming diagnosis of the autoimmune condition – rheumatoid arthritis, she was at the brink of death. Listen to hear more on how Diana turned all of this around, broke the family cycle of alcoholism, found purpose in her suffering, and her suggestions for how to not to give up on our own dreams too.

Diana is now a licensed family medicine practitioner and will be opening her clinic in the El-Paso area with a focus on providing care to low- income families. Also, hear about the key people that helped her get from there to here. You can follow Mo on all social media @MoSibyl and listen to more episodes on all podcast listening platforms.
