Joan Ruddell's life was forever changed by a near-death experience. At just 19 years old, Joan found herself in a serious car accident that nearly took her life. While she was unconscious, she experienced a profound experience in the afterlife that would shape her beliefs and career for decades to come.

After her accident, she struggled with her faith and the stark realities of life and death. Her experiences led her to question the conventional medical practices she had been trained in. With a strong desire to understand the root causes of diseases, she transitioned from a conventional medical career to a holistic approach that focuses on natural remedies and lifestyle changes.

Joan's emphasis on healing vs treating disease addresses a range of lifestyle and nutritional issues which, given her background in clinical chemistry, is deep and well thought out. She challenges us to rethink our approach to medicine and encourages everyone to take charge of their well-being. If you’re curious about the intersection of spirituality, health, and personal transformation, this episode is a must-listen.
