Healing doesn't always look the way we expect, and it rarely happens all at once.

In the final part of Rebecca's three-part story, we explore what long-term healing looked like after stepping fully into a gut-centered, holistic approach for her daughter's severe juvenile idiopathic arthritis. This episode focuses on the slow, steady work of rebuilding the immune system, restoring gut health, and creating an environment where healing could actually take root.

Rebecca shares how food, sourcing, detoxification, nervous system regulation, and community support became the foundation for her daughter's recovery, and how this journey reshaped the health of their entire family.
