Commit to leading your WHOLE self
Calm the mind. Activate & Reinforce the body. Engage the soul.

‍It started in a small exam room in Vancouver. Patient after patient arrived busy, tired, and unsure where to begin. As a family physician, Maryam could treat symptoms. As a teacher at heart, she wanted to change people's stories upstream.
‍

After earning her BSc and MD at UBC and opening a full-service clinic, she built Zili, a not-for-profit dedicated to prevention. In 2017 she gathered 300 people for the first Zili Women’s Preventative Health Conference. Doctors, patients, and allied health professionals spent a day learning how to lead their health with clarity and courage. Since then, Dr. Z has carried that message to Global and CBC, to Telus Talks, WNorth, PowHERhouse, Nicola Wealth Women Leads, the Whole Human Summit, and more.
‍

Her framework is simple and human. The Zili CARE Formula invites us to lead our whole selves well. Calm the mind. Activate the body. Reinforce the body. Engage the soul.
‍

At The Shift Sessions, Dr. Z will tell the story behind that formula and give you tools you can use the next morning. Ownership. Practice. A better way to care for the only life you get.
