Show Notes

**Title:** Doctor’s Orders: Vaccines, Wellness & Entrepreneurship with Dr. Monique May

**Subtitle:** A board-certified physician talks vaccines, nutrition, preventive health and turning medical expertise into a wellness business.

On Episode 25 of **The Build Black Show**, board-certified family physician and Physician In The Kitchen® founder **Dr. Monique May** joins us for a wide-ranging conversation about health, wellness, vaccines, nutrition, entrepreneurship, and ownership.

Dr. May has more than two decades of clinical experience and has expanded her expertise far beyond traditional medicine. She is a bestselling author, speaker, culinary-trained physician, media personality, and entrepreneur who has built the Physician In The Kitchen® brand around helping people make healthier food and lifestyle choices.

We get into the conversations many families and entrepreneurs are having right now: How do we make informed decisions about our health? What should we understand about vaccines? How much does nutrition matter? And how do we separate credible medical information from the flood of health claims we encounter every day?

Then we switch lanes into entrepreneurship and discuss how Dr. May turned her knowledge into intellectual property, books, products, television and a health-focused business.

It’s **health, wealth, wellness and ownership** in one conversation — exactly where The Build Black Show lives.
