About Dr.LaFarra
Dr. LaFarra Young is a triple board-certified pediatric pathologist, Executive Wellness and Preventative Health Expert, and best-selling author who blends natural, holistic methods like juicing, anti-inflammatory diets, and mindful living with technology to help professional women create comfort and success in their bodies. Following many health challenges she faced in her adult life, she became a certified health coach because she was tired of patching her problems with long term medications. She wanted to heal and live life on her own terms, so she created the Always Young Living method which helped her to personally overcome rheumatoid arthritis and sarcoidosis. Her interactive workshops and keynotes help diverse audiences overcome challenges and adversity.
Graduating from Boston University School of Medicine in the top of her class and decided to return to Mississippi, she became the first African American Pediatric Pathologist in the state. She is a best-selling author of three books-- with her first solo book Chews to be Healthy serving as a guide for creating healthier habits by decreasing stress and inflammation holistically prioritizing foods as medicine.
Her mission to help other busy professional women prioritize their health and put their best face forward has since inspired LaFarra & Co. wellness and beauty for easy, effortless beauty from the inside out and a line of juices that heal.
Dr. LaFarra is an active member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated, former President of the Young Physicians Section of the Mississippi State Medical Association, American Society for Clinical Pathologists, and various organizations. She is the mother to twin teenage sons and a toddler daughter.
