The journey to anywhere is rarely linear, and my path to becoming a homeopath was no exception. When I look back on how I got to where I am today, I can’t help but admire all the small encounters and minor mishaps that nudged me toward this path. Homeopathy was always a bit of a mystery to me, yet it had a funny way of popping in and out of my life—sometimes briefly, like a fleeting moment, only to disappear again as if it had never been there.
Take, for instance, when I was a young girl with weekly migraines. They were debilitating, taking me down sometimes for days. Eventually, a friend of my mother’s suggested a man she claimed could work wonders. I still remember meeting him. The experience was strange but fascinating. He asked my mother what seemed like the oddest questions—about my stool, my sleep, my moods—things that felt so unrelated to my headaches. Then he gave me drops to mix into water and take daily. Miraculously, the migraines stopped. For years, I didn’t think about that man again. He faded into the background of my memory, until I was in my early 20s.
By then, life had thrown me another curveball. After leaving home, I developed severe eczema that took over my face and hands, worsening every year. Winters were especially brutal; my skin was so raw and inflamed that makeup wasn’t even an option. Creams, including heavy-duty steroids, offered no relief. I felt lost and desperate for answers. That’s when I thought back to the “magic man” who had cured my childhood headaches. It was worth a shot. I found a homeopath in my area, and within a year, my eczema was gone.
At that point in my life, I was working in business—a career I had convinced myself I needed to succeed in. But it felt hollow. I wanted to help people. And let’s be honest, I was already a total health nut so naturally, going into holistic medicine made sense. My homeopath at the time was an incredibly kind and insightful woman. She encouraged me to consider a new path, reminding me that changing direction was not failure but an opportunity to grow. She planted the idea that going back to school might just be the best decision I’d ever make.
So, I did it. I enrolled in homeopathic college—still not entirely sure what I was getting myself into. And let me tell you, I was in for a wild ride. From the very beginning, school was fascinating. The more I learned, the more I realized there is no limit to what homeopathy can do—what it can heal, who it can transform.
School opened my eyes in ways I didn’t expect—just like homeopathy has so many times before. I wasn’t always a believer. In fact, I was the first to doubt it. But every time I tested homeopathy, it proved me wrong. I’d think, “This can’t possibly work,” and then it would. Over and over again. The thing about homeopathy is that it doesn’t need to shout to make an impact. It steps in, works its magic, and quietly leaves you wondering what happened. But the best part? You’re left feeling better every single time.
Today, as a practicing homeopath, I’ve had the privilege of helping people with fibromyalgia, menopause, skin issues, headaches, grief, and so much more. I’ve seen firsthand how it transforms lives, including my own. The power of homeopathy is unmatched, and there are days when I wish I could shout it from the rooftops—because it truly is that amazing. Its healing abilities are nothing short of extraordinary.
My journey was far from straightforward, but every step was just as important as the last. Every detour, every struggle, every “off” moment—it all led me here. And that’s the beauty of it. Everyone finds homeopathy in their own way, and when they do, oh, what a breath of fresh air it is.
