Meet Dr. Kidi

Hi, I’m Dr. Kidi. I am an internal medicine physician with more than 20 years of experience walking alongside people on their journey to health through prevention and personalized care. I was drawn to medicine not only for its science but also for the art of healing. For me, healing has always meant more than treating symptoms. It is about listening to the whole person, noticing what lives between the words, and honoring the human story behind every diagnosis.

​

My Work

I am the founder of Dr. Kidi LLC and the writer and curator of What Healing Knows. Both grew from my deep love for healing, community, and the cultural wisdom that has shaped my life. Over the years I have learned that the most powerful healing does not come only from medicine, but from presence, connection, and trust in ourselves. My mission is to help people connect with the body’s wisdom of healing through coaching that draws on storytelling, mindfulness practices, workshops, and offerings that inspire presence and restoration.

​

Life Beyond Medicine

Outside of my professional work, I am a mother, a wife, a sister, and a friend. Community has always been at the center of my life. I serve as program director of the Wegene Youth Club, where I mentor young people in leadership and help them discover the joy of giving back through service.

​

Writing and Creativity

Books have always been a source of comfort to me, yet writing has been my deepest love. Since middle school I have filled journals and scraps of paper with reflections and stories. Many of the words I share now are rooted in those early writings, carrying the voice of a girl who was learning to listen to herself.

I also love designing clothing made with Ethiopian cotton, silk, and traditional embroidery. I believe that what touches our skin shapes our sense of being, and creating pieces with care feels like another expression of healing.

​

Why What Healing Knows

I created What Healing Knows to help people reconnect with the quiet intelligence of the body, the wisdom that rises when we pause and truly listen. My work is not meant to replace medicine. It is here to walk alongside it, to restore the bond between science and soul, and to remind us that healing is something we awaken from within.

​

An Invitation

What Healing Knows is a healing platform. It is a space for reflection, renewal, and healing where I share stories, journaling practices, daily rituals, workshops, and community offerings.

My hope is to listen with care, to hold space for your questions, and to encourage you to trust what your body already knows. Healing is not only about mending what feels broken. It is about remembering, reconnecting, and honoring the devotion to life within you.

​

If my work helps even one person along their healing journey, I know I have fulfilled my purpose. I would be honored for you to join me on this path.

Subscribe to stay close and receive new reflections, practices, and invitations as they unfold.
