When the standard treatment plan doesn't feel right, what happens next?

In Part 2 of Rebecca's three-part story, we continue her family's journey after her daughter's devastating diagnosis of severe juvenile idiopathic arthritis. This episode explores what happened when Rebecca chose to step outside conventional care and pursue a radically different approach. An approach rooted in nutrition, detoxification, gut health, and environmental changes.

Rebecca shares the emotional weight of making high-stakes decisions for her child, the isolation that can come with choosing a nontraditional path, and the slow, often invisible work of supporting healing from the inside out. This conversation pulls back the curtain on what holistic healing actually looks like day-to-day, and why resilience, patience, and trust are essential when answers aren't immediate.

This episode is for parents navigating chronic illness, autoimmune disease, and the space between medical guidance and parental intuition.
