| Last Sunday, I found myself kicked back in a cozy chair, surrounded by new and old friends in Washington.As the fire crackled and crickets hummed in the background, one of my dearest friends boldly asked: “Do you believe someone can heal from anything?” My simple answer? Yes. But the real answer? It depends on the IFs.IF you’re searching for “the one thing” — that perfect supplement, medication, or protocol — to fix everything, healing will likely feel like a constant struggle.IF you’re stuck in a cycle of victimhood or waiting to be saved, that mindset may keep you from ever seeing progress.IF you jump from one trend to the next looking for instant results, it’s easy to grow bitter and burned out.IF you ignore the emotional, spiritual, and energetic roots of dis-ease, the uphill battle may never end.I’ve seen this firsthand — in nearly 20 years of practice, in my mom’s cancer journey, in my dad’s late-in-life comeback, and in my own health story. My mom tried everything — from baskets of supplements and clean eating to pilgrimages to Europe and beyond — but she never turned inward to take back her own power. Toward the end, she felt abandoned by God and angry at her body.It was heartbreaking. And it taught me a lot. Years later, I’ve watched clients transform their lives — healing from MS, chronic pain, fatigue, and even cancer. My own dad is proof. At nearly 89, he’s defied a grim diagnosis by shifting his diet, mindset, and even his social circle. He has more mobility and joy today than he did four years ago. The point? Healing isn’t guaranteed, but transformation is possible — especially when you take back the wheel. Natural medicine, targeted support, and your own belief system all matter. You are the medicine. Are you open to believing it?
