So, for the next few minutes, let's link our arms as I demystify homeopathy — what was once considered an esoteric paradigm — into an understandable, reproducible, safe and effective health care solution available to all. This is the medicine you've been searching for — my unique brand of homeopathy, PRACTICAL Homeopathy®. INTRODUCTION Kate: (01:00) Hi, and welcome back to the podcast. We're so glad that you've joined us today. We love that you're here and are so excited about your homeopathy journey. So, thanks for being here. Today, we have a special treat. Joette is going to be talking to a special guest, so I'm just going to let her take it away. Joette: Thanks, Kate. So, I'd like to introduce Kirsten Decca. I've gotten to know Kirsten pretty well through the last few years because she's been a student of mine for some time. She joined The Academy — and we're going to hear all about that — and then, she went into the next year, the Mastery™ program. And now, she's in our Mastermind program, and I really wanted you to hear her story. So, welcome, Kirsten. Kirsten: Thanks, Joette. It's a pleasure to be here. Thank you for having me. Joette: Yeah, this is going to be good today. So, I'm interested in knowing — as many people are — a little bit about your life, what you do and what brought you to homeopathy. WHAT BROUGHT KIRSTEN TO HOMEOPATHY? PEDIATRICIAN PUSHBACK AND PIZZA Kirsten: (02:04) Okay. Well, I'm a mom of six. My husband and I live here in the northwestern part of Florida. My husband is retired Air Force, and we have moved up here kind of out into the country. We have a little homestead, and we raise chickens, and we have dogs and some goats and horses. My journey to homeopathy is interesting. I have a background in health care. I'm a licensed physical therapist assistant. Although I'm retired, I haven't been in a clinic for probably, oh gosh, over 20 years now. But I've always loved anatomy and physiology. I'd like to say health care, although I feel different about what it actually is now. But my dad was actually a pharmaceutical rep, so I was raised with drugs. They were everywhere. It's just what we did. In fact, I didn't really know that there was even another way. If you were sick, that's just what you did. You took a pill. Or actually, we used to have — I don't know if you remember Kaopectate®, Joette. You remember? Joette: I do. Kirsten: So, we used to have it everywhere. And I don't know why I thought it tastes good, but we would just drink it. We would go sneak it out of my dad's samples and take Kaopectate. I don't know how we ever went to the bathroom. But anyway, so to say that drugs were commonplace is just an understatement. I went to school to be the physical therapist assistant.
