"When I found homeopathy, I was like this can't possibly work." Kimberly's remarkable health journey began with extreme skepticism about those tiny sugar pills with Latin names. After years of restrictive diets, endless detoxes, and natural remedies that provided minimal relief, one desperate attempt with Arsenicum Album for a severe infection changed everything.
The transformation was immediate and undeniable. "I woke up disoriented the next morning – something was missing. It was the itching that had been torturing me for weeks." This dramatic healing experience opened the door to exploring what homeopathy might do for her chronic eczema, cat allergies, and other persistent conditions that had resisted all previous approaches.
What followed was nothing short of liberating. After two years of not being able to use soap on her cracked, bleeding hands despite following the strictest elimination diet, homeopathy healed her skin completely – and remarkably, allowed her to eat previously problematic foods without flare-ups. The cat who once triggered severe respiratory symptoms now sleeps peacefully by her side every night.
These personal experiences revealed something profound: many "natural" approaches she'd previously embraced were actually suppressive rather than truly healing. Where she once felt obligated to tell clients "you're never going to eat anything fun again," she now offers solutions that work with the body's innate healing capacity without requiring life-altering restrictions.
Now as a practitioner herself, Kimberly has witnessed similar transformations in her clients – from a woman who discontinued proton pump inhibitors after 40 years to an infant whose six-month cough resolved completely. Her approach combines deep homeopathic knowledge with practical experience and the understanding that true healing empowers rather than restricts.

I started training with youtowards the beginning of 2024,
and then I started taking.
My first consults was in Aprilof 24.
So it's been just over a yearof actually taking cases and
I've learned so much during thattime.
It's been amazing.

And you know, I tell people onthe free 15 minute phone call,
(02:11):
um, you know, when I suggestworking with one of my
associates, I tell them we'reall strong Christians, so and
that always brings people peacethey're like, oh, okay, good,
because the reason they wantedto work with me is because I'm a
Christian, or one reason isbecause I'm a Christian.
And then when I assure them sois Kimberly, you know, so is

they're like, oh okay, they feelbetter.
So anyway, I just love, I loveworking with you and I'm so
thankful to have you.
So let's get to know Kimberly.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Bree, what you got.
Well, I also just wanted to sayI'm pretty sure, Kimberly, you
were in classes years ago, right?
Is that how we initially met?
Speaker 3 (03:01):
It is.
It is.
That was.
That was 2022.
That was when I first startedusing and learning about
homeopathy and finding Melissawas a total fluke, or maybe a
divine appointment.
I found your specific gatewayclass.
My sister met a girl at alittle league baseball game and
(03:21):
she was talking about me, hersister who's interested in
homeopathy, and that girl's likeI think my sister's taking the
same class, and at that point Ihad the books for gateway.
I didn't have a study group andI was like, how do I find a
study group?
I don't know anybody.
And through her that's how Igot you know Melissa's website
and then signed up for classesand, you know, took some more of
(03:41):
Melissa's classes and you knowthe rest is history.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
I just remember you've been around for a while
Like I, I feel like a lot.
I mean, that's three years.
Yeah, okay, that's just what Iwas thinking about, that.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
I don't think I knew that, so that's a great story.
Speaker 3 (03:59):
Yeah yeah, it was just really.
I mean couldn't have planned it.
I mean it's like I couldn'thave found a position doing this
if I had tried.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
So yeah, and thank you for bringing that up too I
actually reached out to Kimberlyand said hey, much like I did
with Bree, not that and I hopeI'm not sounding arrogant Like I
reached out to you, but reallylike you.
You know both of you were Icould see the sweetness and the
(04:32):
humbleness.
That's what I care about.
You can learn that, you canlearn the remedies.
I need that sweet spirit towork with.
So I reached out to Kimberlyand was like hey, do you want to
come?
You know work?
She was like hey do you want tocome, you know work.
She was like what Are youserious?
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Well, and to be totally fair to you, you are
already so active in theFacebook group.
I think that's something youhad told me.
You noticed she was answeringall the questions at all the
classes so it kind of made sensethat you were like.
That feels like a good fit andthat's kind of why the class,
(05:10):
why I brought that up, becauseyou had been.
I do feel like we knew youdecently Well, you had been
around.
So anyway, that was cool, Acool start.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Yeah, Very cool.
Well, tell us about you,Kimberly, and how.
Tell us about your journey andand all the things.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
So before I came to homeopathy, I was very into
natural healing, but more from anaturopathic standpoint, and I
was, you know, a big believer in.
You know, food is medicine andyou know drinking your water and
cleansing and detox, you know,and all of these things kind of
like the typical.
You know, when you thinknatural healing, you know food
is medicine and you knowdrinking your water and
cleansing and detox, you know,and all of these things kind of
like the typical.
You know, when you thinknatural healing, you know that,
um, and I had been takingclasses from a lady you know who
(05:53):
had been an MD at one point andyou know she stopped practicing
medicine to teach naturalhealing.
And you know, I was just, youknow, very, very into that and I
first found out abouthomeopathy.
I mean, I didn't even know whatit was.
I'd probably heard the word atsome point, but you know, if
somebody had asked me, Iprobably would have said it was
herbs or something.
I mean, I had no idea.
(06:13):
And people were talking aboutit in the comments section of a
Facebook post about fever, likealternatives for Tylenol to
bring a fever down and what todo, and people were talking
about Belladonna and JoetteCalabrese's blog and so I
thought that was interesting andI went and checked out her blog
.
I was very surprised to findthat homeopathy comes in these
(06:37):
little tubes of sugar pills withLatin names.
I mean, I never would haveguessed that in a million years.
And I was reading about it andI just thought there's no
possible way that could work,because you know it's not doing
the detox and the cleansing andthe you know the diet and you
know, and it's like you've gotto cut out your dairy and your
gluten and do this and do that.
And it's like I, you know, Ihad, you know, all that website
(07:02):
and I didn't look at it againfor months.
And then some months later, Igot a ferociously itchy
infection.
I don't know if it's a yeastinfection, a bacterial infection
, but none of the natural stuffI knew to do was working.
And, um, I did finally go tothe doctor.
(07:24):
I was using garlic for it whichkilled everything, but I was
still itching.
I went to the doctor, you knowthey, you know, took a swab and
ran tests and it's like you'renegative for everything and we
don't know why you're itchy.
And so they sent me home withantibiotics, antifungal and
steroids.
They're like try the antifungalfirst.
If that doesn't work, try theantibiotics.
If that doesn't work, then somepeople just have idiopathic
(07:46):
itching and use the steroids andthat's it.
And I didn't want to do any ofthat, and so I'm frantically
looking for what else can I do,and I remember Joette's blog,
which, as you know, issearchable, so I'm looking to
see what does she have in there?
And, you know, is there someinformation on something that
maybe can help me?
And so I got, I got some of theremedies in there.
(08:07):
I got the remedies for theyeast infection, I got the
remedies for the bacterialinfection, which you know were
very similar, and and this hadbeen going on for about three
weeks that I had not slept afull night because of this.
I was miserable and I couldhardly function.
And within taking one dose ofarsenic amalbum, I woke up the
next morning with no itching andI was completely amazed.
(08:33):
I mean, I just kind of woke updisoriented.
It's like something's missing,what's wrong.
It's like oh, it's the itching,that is what is gone.
And it came back like a littlebit throughout the day.
And so, you know, I I added inthe heparsulf for that and then
I just took the arsenic, amalbumand heparsulf and those were
the remedies from her blog and Idid that twice a day and it
(08:53):
totally cleared up within abouta week a little over a week and
have never had an issue with itagain.
You know and that was one ofthe things the doctor said is
it's very common for people tobe back to the doctor within
about six weeks with another one.
So that was the beginning andthat was what made me realize
that I do not have all theanswers and that homeopathy was
(09:14):
a big missing piece of my puzzle.
So then you know, I'm just likefrantically reading Joette's
blog and, you know, orderingremedies.
You know I had I was stillordering from Amazon because I
didn't know where else to getremedies and I had a tube of
remedies showing up, you know,every couple of days.
And you know my husband'slooking at all these packages
and you know wondering how longis this going to continue.
(09:36):
You know we have a little tubeof pills that shows up every
couple of days and you know, andthen I you know I got the
gateway, you know, foundMelissa's class.
And then, you know, and I didalso have some chronic things
too.
You know that was like thefirst wow moment, that it was
like I don't understand how thisworks and I don't even care how
it works.
(09:56):
It's amazing and I have tolearn more.
Um, but then the chronic things.
I had some eczema on my handsand I had been struggling with
that since 2019.
It started in 2019 and it wasawful and it would crack and it
would bleed.
I mean, I went for probablyabout two years that I could not
use soap on my hands.
(10:17):
I had a cleaner that was likedistilled water and vinegar with
a little vodka and somepeppermint oil.
I would use that if I reallyhad to get my hands dirty or I
would wear gloves and I justtried my best to not use any
cleanser on my hands becausethey were so bad and my hands
have totally cleared up.
I had food sensitivities thatwere contributing to that.
(10:40):
You know, not like majorallergies, but dairy and gluten
were definitely not my friend.
I can eat whatever I want andmy skin does not have a flare up
and and I also kind of had somemild acne just you know, from
when I was a teenager never wentaway.
I mean, I'm almost 40 now andum, and that's finally gone and
(11:00):
that I wasn't really trying toget rid of that, just in working
on other things it just kind ofwent away.
And then, oh, and the catallergy.
I was very badly allergic tocats.
My cat that I currently haveshowed up on my doorstep right
around the time I startedlearning about homeopathy and my
(11:22):
plan was just to help him outthrough the winter, so I would
let him stay in the house.
I mean, he was just a stray catthat the winter, so I would let
him stay in the house.
I mean, he was just a stray catthat I started feeding and I'd
let him stay in the house if itwas a really cold night which
you know, I live in Houston, wedon't have that many really cold
nights but within a couplehours of having him in the house
I would be coughing andwheezing, you know, like I was
about to die.
And if I had him in the housefor more than a night or two, I
(11:53):
mean it was just like I need abreak.
He's got to go outside, and Ididn't think I would ever be
able to have a full-time cat.
Well, that cat is my cat now.
He sleeps with me every nightand I have no issues with him.
I love it.
Oh my gosh, I love it.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
Those are some great success stories.
I love it.
Oh my gosh, I love it.
Those are some great successstories.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
That's just.
That's just what's happened inmy life.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Right, right, it's amazing.
Yeah, I love it.
And so you got.
You got all excited and youstarted using homeopathy and,
for yourself and your family,did you start treating your
husband.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
Oh yeah, oh yes, he was.
He was one of my, my earlyGuinea pigs and I can tell you
sepia is the remedy that madehim a believer.
Um, but also, I mean, one ofthe early things that happened.
I remember you know he had andthis was I first, this was, this
was in 22.
So it was, you know, very earlyon and you know I, I had gotten
(12:42):
the Banerjee kit from Taprootswhich you know, the friend that
told me about you in the firstplace.
She had recommended that it'slike if I had it to do over
again, I would get this and Ithought this thing is really
expensive, it's kind of aninvestment.
But I did buy it and that kitpaid for itself within the first
year of owning it.
(13:02):
It paid for itself within thefirst year of owning it.
So my husband his eye infectionand I used a Banerjee protocol
for that.
It was a quite severe infectionand you know, at first you know
he was thinking it wasallergies tried some of the
allergy remedies.
It didn't really do too muchand I'm looking in the Banerjee
book and there was a protocolfor conjunctivitis and within 24
(13:24):
hours it started to turn aroundand then he mentioned to me
that he had had a similarinfection maybe five years
earlier.
And I asked him you know, he'sa pretty new husband, so I
hadn't known him a full fiveyears at the time and so I asked
him well, you know so whathappened that time?
I said, did it just, you know,go away on its own, because he's
, you know, like most men.
(13:45):
It's not going to go to thedoctor unless he thinks he's
going to die sometime within thenext 24 hours.
And um, and he said no.
After about three days hisvision started to go black and
he went to the doctor.
Oh yeah, and so this was verysimilar.
No drama, didn't go to thedoctor, it cleared up within
(14:05):
about a week just with thehomeopathy.
You know, and I'm not sayingdon't go to the doctor, but I
kind of gauge things.
It's like if it's gettingbetter, then you know it's
getting better and I've had aton of success with that
Banerjee protocol forconjunctivitis.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
I feel, I want to say I want to say a hundred percent
.
I feel like it works everysingle time.
It's a good one, it's a reallygood one.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
I w.
I was amazed.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
And then you know another one of the early
successes.
My cat is also a frequentrecipient of homeopathy, and so
and I can't remember if this wasbefore or after my husband's
eye infection and so I can'tremember if this was before or
after my husband's eye infection.
But the cat got a urinaryblockage and I used homeopathy
for him.
He was unblocked within fourhours and saved us an emergency
(14:58):
trip to the vet, and I can tellyou my cat much prefers
homeopathy to go into theemergency room to be
catheterized.
Of course I love it and I waskeeping a close eye on him.
It's like he's not better bybedtime.
We're going to the emergencyroom.
But he got better and I'vesince changed his diet and he
has never had another one since.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
But that the first time it happened that was a $700
bill.
Yeah, and to not have to dothat, so that right there, paid
for my homeopathy kit.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
Oh, so good, so good.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
I don't have anything specific, except I was, um, I
did want to ask about your likeover time, as you've been,
because your story has lots ofdifferent things.
Okay, I'm using this for myfamily too.
(15:58):
I want to do this, or I think Iwant to do this as a job, or
you know what I mean.
Like how did it become like abigger part of your life?
But I do feel like this kind ofhappens a lot.
Like how do you not yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (16:06):
Well, I mean, even even before I found homeopathy,
I was wanting to, you know,start some kind of like a
natural health coaching businessor do something.
And I had had some really goodresults just in my you know, pre
homeopathy life, you know,helping friends and family with
things.
And then, when I foundhomeopathy, I was like I can't
(16:27):
keep going in this directionbecause I just feel like so much
is missing.
And I started using homeopathymore and more and more and I
just felt like I can't even goin this other direction anymore.
But I also kind of felt likestarting over.
Well, how long is that going totake and how do I do that?
And maybe it's too late.
(16:48):
And and so I started, startedlooking at where I find out
about Rob and Murphy's class.
I know, melissa, you're analumni, but there was also a
lady in the Facebook group whowas talking about it and I think
maybe she had shared somethings from the Lotus website.
(17:08):
And so I was looking on thereand looking at the requirements
and how long it takes to getthrough it.
And then after a while, I waslike you know what, I'm just
going to do it, you know, and Iremember you know, something
that my aunt told me many yearsago is time passes anyway, and
in two years you could eitherhave a certificate in homeopathy
(17:28):
or you could be sitting rightwhere you are but time will pass
anyway.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
Yeah, that's good.
Speaker 3 (17:34):
And so, you know, just started putting one foot in
front of the other, but I justgot to be where.
Now it's like that's the firstthing I do is homeopathy.
I don't really even think aboutany of these other things and
it's, I feel, like it's so muchmore accessible and so much
easier for people to use.
Because you know my old way,you know my old life.
(17:57):
If somebody asked me, what doyou do about?
You know this or that or theother?
You know, a big part of theanswer was going to be,
essentially, you're never goingto eat anything fun again.
Because you know no processedfood and no sugar and no gluten
and no dairy, no this and nothat.
And it's like turn your wholeentire life upside down.
And you know, and just the wayyou know, there's, there's
(18:17):
toxins everywhere.
You know just the world the wayit is.
It is very, very hard to avoidall of these things and to not
have to.
I mean, now my approach is well, try your best and pray over
your food, and that's about it.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
Love it, yep.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
And it's so liberating and because I worked
so hard on the eczema on myhands.
I mean, I didn't eat fun things.
I, you know, didn't eatprocessed food and I didn't eat
dairy and I didn't eat glutenand I didn't eat sugar, and if I
one little thing that I wasn'tsupposed to eat, I would have a
flare up.
That would take me a week tocalm down and it was so hard and
it didn't.
It didn't get.
Well, it was all that work totread water and now to be able
(19:05):
to eat whatever I want.
You know, not that I should andI try not to, but I can.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
That's right, that's what it is.
Yeah, so that you can go.
You know what I tell people?
My, my, the minimal goal isthat you can go to a party or a
restaurant and not have to worryabout what's in the food.
The ultimate goal is that youcan purposely eat these things,
at least sometimes.
You know maybe you can't overdoit, but you know we're.
(19:35):
We're not going to go back toeating Doritos and whatever else
I used to like to eat.
I still like Doritos, but Ihave a little bit occasionally
Right and I'm fine, it doesn't,doesn't bother me.
Where I thought before Ithought that was it forever.
(19:55):
I can never have gluten ordairy or corn ever again.
Speaker 3 (20:01):
I love it yeah, it's, it's been so liberating and
it's just the contrast is nightand day, you know.
And then also, um, you know, asI have, you know, gotten more
into homeopathy, the other thingI started to realize is that a
lot of these things that I usedto do, even though they're
natural, they, some of them, arestill suppressive.
(20:23):
Where it's acting on theproblem, it's not stimulating
your body to heal the problem.
You know and I'm thinking, youknow, like the endless parasite
cleanse is.
I mean, I was definitely thatperson.
It's like you got to get yourparasites out and you know, if
you have a problem, parasitesare probably a big part of it.
And I, I mean, I remembersomebody asking in your class,
you know, when I was takinggateway, you know well, what do
(20:44):
you do about parasites.
And I was just on the edge ofmy seat to find out what, yeah,
what it tell us, what do you doabout them.
And I remember your answer.
I think it's like, well, if youdon't have a medical diagnosis
or you haven't actually seen aworm, then nothing, you know,
don't worry about it.
And you know and I've sincelearned that you know, if you
have parasites, a lot of timesthey're the cleanup crew.
(21:04):
They're there for a reason, butas you, you know, as you
improve your vitality, a lot ofthese things will just go away.
And I saw that, you know that,with my cat as well.
So you know he had fleas lastsummer.
Last summer, it feels likeforever ago.
And the summer before that,when he had fleas, I had tried
(21:30):
homeopathy.
You know, I've tried someremedies, tried some of this,
tried some of that, and I justcouldn't get it under control.
I ended up giving him the fleamedicine.
Shortly after that he came downwith food allergies and ataxia
and I, you know, I mean it wasmaybe a month later In my mind I
think that's connected andataxia is a side effect that's
(21:50):
listed for these flea remedies.
So then when he got fleas againthe following year, last summer,
I, you know, was determined.
It's like I've got to figureout a way to deal with this
without giving him flea medicine, because I didn't.
You know, he's he's doingreally well and when he has like
a dizzy spell I give himhomeopathy and he hasn't had one
in a really long time.
(22:10):
But I was determined I was notgiving him more flea medicine
and I was reading, you know,another homeopath and another
group was talking about thefleas and just raising the
animal's vitality and they willgo away.
And she didn't have to gothrough even you know, the
endless vacuuming and all thecrazy things we do to get rid of
fleas naturally.
(22:31):
And I tried some differentremedies with him and I don't
know it was a different remedy,but I don't know if there was
just some, you know, an elementof, you know, faith or
determination or something, butthose fleas went away and I was
using a little bit of it'scalled parasite powder.
(22:51):
It's got diatomaceous earth and, I think, some neem and some
things.
I'd dust him with that everyday.
You, you know, comb him forfleas, give him his remedy.
Um, and it didn't take thatlong.
It was within a few weeks andthe fleas went love it.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Yep, I love it.
My dogs haven't had fleas ortick.
They don't get the occasionaltick, but we don't battle.
We live out here in the woods.
My dogs don't get fleas andticks.
Yeah, yep.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
Go.
So I do want to know, just I'minterested in when you were
doing the health coach or youwanted to do that and then
homeopathy do you like thepeople interaction more, or do
you like the learning, like thedesire to learn, or maybe both?
I'm sure there's elements ofboth.
(23:43):
Obviously you have to be sortof a people person to want to do
coaching, but um, was it like?
I love all this stuff, I can'twait to help other people or the
hunger for the knowledge.
Does that make sense?
Obviously there's elements ofboth, but which one was more
enticing to you at the beginning?
Speaker 3 (24:04):
It's hard to say.
I think it's definitely both,and just finding out that
there's solutions to things thatI thought were unsolvable and
just that you think there'sthere's nothing you can do about
this.
And you know, and one of thethings that I learned, you know
from from that, you know fromthe more naturopathic, I guess
method teaching.
(24:25):
You know, the things I learnedthat I have carried with me is
scrap meats.
I still use scrap meats a lotand I've seen really good
results with that.
So I love using that inconjunction with homeopathy.
But that's the only thing thatI've really carried with me that
I still use and because I dofeel like it's something that's
not suppressive but anyways.
(24:46):
So I kind of got a little bitoff track.
So, to answer your question,yes, both.
So I love learning about thesethings, but just being able to
help somebody and being able tooffer somebody some hope, you
know when they're like I havebone on bone pain and I don't
know what to do about it.
And you know, like these scrapmeats I mean I think everybody
I've ever given these to youknow share the recipe.
They tried it.
They'll notice a differencewithin about a week.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
Okay, so like you make a broth out of it, or what
do you?
What are you saying?
Speaker 3 (25:21):
I mean, I get what you got me, like.
I know what those are, what doyou do with them?
I?
Speaker 1 (25:24):
make a soup and the broth by itself is probably not
enough.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
You got to eat the squishy bits.
You eat it, you do.
All right, you do.
But I mean, I have seen ahernia heal without medical
intervention.
And even you know I had achronic neck injury from being
in multiple car accidents, youknow, and that healed before I
ever found out about homeopathy,just from that.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
Were you eating the soup every single day?
Speaker 3 (25:45):
Um, not every day.
I was eating it several times aweek for a while.
But I feel like it's somethingthat kind of once you, you know,
I mean, I mean we don't reallyeat collagen in this country, I
mean it's, you know, steak andboneless, skinless chicken
breasts, so we don't get a lotof that connective tissue.
But I feel like once you kindof have restored your reserves,
you don't need to eat it veryoften.
I hardly ever eat it anymoreand homeopathy also helps a lot.
(26:09):
But I feel like sometimes, youknow, with some of these things
like bone on bone pain orsomething where you know
homeopathy can't make you regrowcartilage, but giving your body
these building blocks, I'm Ihave been absolutely shocked at
what will heal.
And I think homeopathy juststimulates that healing process
and just helps it go even faster.
(26:29):
Could post your recipe?
Speaker 2 (26:31):
is that something you want to share publicly with
everyone yeah, yeah, I can shareit.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
I actually shared it in the Facebook group once upon
a time.
Um, it's, it's in theresomewhere, but I can definitely
send it to you and okay, andthen we'll.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
we'll post it with this video and with the with the
podcast episode.
Yeah, okay.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
Um, okay, another question, like now that you've
been doing, I mean taking casesfor a year, a little over a year
, you said, um, what are some ofyour?
So a couple of questions.
So one have you found an areathat you are really loving to
serve, or is it just all of it?
(27:19):
And then, what are some of your?
Like, just some of yourfavorite stories, some stories
of your cases found a particulararea.
Speaker 3 (27:34):
That's, like, you know, my area.
But I just love all of it.
I mean, I love helping peopleand especially, you know, when
somebody comes back and they aredoing so much better, that's
the best feeling in the world.
And so one of them probably mymost dramatic one I had this
(27:54):
lady who came with GERD.
She had a bunch of other things.
That was one of the main things.
And she had been on proton pumpinhibitors for 40 years.
She got off of those withinnine days and by the time of the
follow-up she wasn't evenneeding the remedy anymore.
I mean, she was eating baconand everything.
(28:16):
And also same lady she also, Ibelieve she was diabetic as well
and she had neuropathy in herlegs and feet and she had been
on gabapentin for many, manyyears, like over 10 years.
She had tried many times to getoff of it.
She got off of her gabapentinwithin 30 days and the tingling
and the feeling like these werewalking around on her legs.
(28:37):
All that was gone.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (28:41):
And I remember her comment to me was that if she
had not lived it she would nothave believed it's possible.
And you know, and I was amazedtoo, because some of sometimes
you know these, you know olderpeople who have.
You know they've been onallopathic medicine for a long
time.
You know there's a lot ofsuppression and sometimes it can
take a really long time.
And you know, at the follow up,you know hearing about this
(29:03):
like she was amazed, I wasamazed.
It was.
It was like very inspiring.
Speaker 1 (29:09):
That is very cool, I do think.
Sometimes people come back andI'm like I expected it to work,
obviously, or I wouldn't havesaid to do that, but when it
works that fast or thatdramatically, I'm even like wow.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
Yeah, we're amazed.
Speaker 3 (29:26):
Yeah, I was thinking this could take some time and
you know it might.
You know, it's like I expectedto see something, but I did not.
Speaker 2 (29:33):
I didn't really expect it to work that fast,
yeah, wow, what else, kimberly,you have another story.
Speaker 3 (29:39):
Yeah, yeah.
So I had a nine month old babywho had been coughing for six
months, which is a very longtime when you're only nine
months old, and the coughresolved within the first
appointment, and a lot of timesyou don't find out why somebody
doesn't come back.
But in this case I was alsoseeing the, his brother, and so
(30:02):
you know the mom, you know,booked a con book to follow up
consult for the brother and thenat his consult she mentioned
that she you know why she hadnot made a follow-up for the
baby and that was because he gotwell and he was doing great.
So, it's just like I just don'tthink he needs a follow-up.
You know his spine and it'slike I agree, if he's doing
great, he's doing great.
Speaker 2 (30:21):
Love it.
That's awesome.
What else should we know fromKimberly?
Speaker 1 (30:29):
Well, on a personal note, I mean I would love to
know what do you like to do inyour spare time?
Tell us about your family, Idon't know.
Speaker 3 (30:38):
I mean, I talk to my mom about every day, um, and she
, she also is a frequentrecipient of homeopathic help.
Um, I had some great storieswith her as well, and so my mom,
(31:03):
she, she lives fairly close, soI see her pretty frequently
probably not as often as I wouldlike, but she's about an hour
and a half away, so sometimesit's just hard to find time to,
you know, to make the drive outthere.
But, um, um, I also have adegree in classical guitar.
I used to, you know, once upona time I was going to be a
(31:24):
musician.
So, um, definitely, a long pastlife.
Um, I feel like homeopathy isreally the main thing.
I mean, it's, it's somethingthat gives me energy.
I don't feel like it's work.
Um, you know, I do still have afull-time corporate job, and
(31:44):
then I, you know, I dohomeopathy, you know, on the
weekends, um, you know, and put,you know, put my care plans
together.
You know, at night, after work,um, but it's just something
that I love to do, it gives meenergy and it's always just
something I'm excited to.
To come home and do, um, Ihaven't really.
(32:05):
I used to dance, I used to doWest coast swing, and that's
actually how I met my husband.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
That's fun dancing.
Speaker 3 (32:13):
Yeah, it is, and I actually I used to go to
competitions and like that wasyou know what I was doing back
when I was young and single anddidn't have anything better to
spend my money on.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (32:30):
So you know, I met my husband and I feel like I've
become another one of thosepeople who it's like, yeah, we
met dancing and then we neverwent again.
We do every now and then.
I think also things justchanged a lot with COVID and
kind of the community and it'sjust like the community just
really kind of atrophied a lot.
So but we've been talking aboutwe should go dancing sometime
(32:51):
soon, so we'll probably go.
And I also do country Western.
Speaker 2 (32:54):
I mean I live in a suburb of Houston so everybody
does country dancing around hereof doing this is so that
potential clients can see youand hear your voice and just see
all the the beauty that I seeall the time.
(33:19):
Every time I talk to you and,um, you know we're in, we're in
close contact.
I always tell people, you know,when they, when I tell them you
can work with Kimberly, um, orme, and so you know, all eczema
cases go to Bree.
So if it's not eczema, then I'mlike you know I've got, I've
(33:39):
got Kimberly or Abby or me, andthen I just, you know, get to
tell them.
It's fine for me to tell themwhat I think about you, but for
them, I think now they're goingto get to see you and hear your
voice and hear your story and itjust makes it nicer just to
(34:01):
know, kind of, who you're goingto be working with ahead of time
.
So is there anything else youwant to add, Kimberly, that
you'd like to say to people?
Because I think I'm going toput not, I think I am going to
put this video right on your bio.
Is there anything else you wantto say?

She's one of the associates onmy team and I'm so excited to
just talk to her and have peopleget to know her better.
But first, fan mail.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
I feel like I'm blues clues.
I should have a little song.
Okay, we do have fan mail fromSalt Lake city, utah, and she or
he said hello.
The only way my sister wouldpossibly consider not
vaccinating is maybe withhomeoprophylaxis.
Would that be safe?
How do I find a provider?
(00:44):
Can she use that for school andtravel?
Thank you and God bless.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Sweet.

Thank you for having me.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
So happy.
So Kimberly has been with ussince early 2024, right.
Speaker 3 (01:34):
Yeah, that's correct.
I started training with youtowards the beginning of 2024,
and then I started taking.
My first consults was in Aprilof 24.
So it's been just over a yearof actually taking cases and
I've learned so much during thattime.
It's been amazing.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
I have so enjoyed having you on our team because
it's there's many reasons butit's it's just a pleasure to
work with you.
There's, kimberly just has sucha sweet and humble spirit and
that's that's so important to me.
And you know, I tell people onthe free 15 minute phone call,
(02:11):
um, you know, when I suggestworking with one of my
associates, I tell them we'reall strong Christians, so and
that always brings people peacethey're like, oh, okay, good,
because the reason they wantedto work with me is because I'm a
Christian, or one reason isbecause I'm a Christian.
And then when I assure them sois Kimberly, you know, so is
(02:32):
Bree, so is Abby, so is Lisa, sois Julie, you know, then
they're like, oh okay, they feelbetter.
So anyway, I just love, I loveworking with you and I'm so
thankful to have you.
So let's get to know Kimberly.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Bree, what you got.
Well, I also just wanted to sayI'm pretty sure, Kimberly, you
were in classes years ago, right?
Is that how we initially met?
Speaker 3 (03:01):
It is.
It is.
That was.
That was 2022.
That was when I first startedusing and learning about
homeopathy and finding Melissawas a total fluke, or maybe a
divine appointment.
I found your specific gatewayclass.
My sister met a girl at alittle league baseball game and
(03:21):
she was talking about me, hersister who's interested in
homeopathy, and that girl's likeI think my sister's taking the
same class, and at that point Ihad the books for gateway.
I didn't have a study group andI was like, how do I find a
study group?
I don't know anybody.
And through her that's how Igot you know Melissa's website
and then signed up for classesand, you know, took some more of
(03:41):
Melissa's classes and you knowthe rest is history.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
I just remember you've been around for a while
Like I, I feel like a lot.
I mean, that's three years.
Yeah, okay, that's just what Iwas thinking about, that.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
I don't think I knew that, so that's a great story.
Speaker 3 (03:59):
Yeah yeah, it was just really.
I mean couldn't have planned it.
I mean it's like I couldn'thave found a position doing this
if I had tried.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
So yeah, and thank you for bringing that up too I
actually reached out to Kimberlyand said hey, much like I did
with Bree, not that and I hopeI'm not sounding arrogant Like I
reached out to you, but reallylike you.
You know both of you were Icould see the sweetness and the
(04:32):
humbleness.
That's what I care about.
You can learn that, you canlearn the remedies.
I need that sweet spirit towork with.
So I reached out to Kimberlyand was like hey, do you want to
come?
You know work?
She was like hey do you want tocome, you know work.
She was like what Are youserious?
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Well, and to be totally fair to you, you are
already so active in theFacebook group.
I think that's something youhad told me.
You noticed she was answeringall the questions at all the
classes so it kind of made sensethat you were like.
That feels like a good fit andthat's kind of why the class,
(05:10):
why I brought that up, becauseyou had been.
I do feel like we knew youdecently Well, you had been
around.
So anyway, that was cool, Acool start.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Yeah, Very cool.
Well, tell us about you,Kimberly, and how.
Tell us about your journey andand all the things.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
So before I came to homeopathy, I was very into
natural healing, but more from anaturopathic standpoint, and I
was, you know, a big believer in.
You know, food is medicine andyou know drinking your water and
cleansing and detox, you know,and all of these things kind of
like the typical.
You know, when you thinknatural healing, you know food
is medicine and you knowdrinking your water and
cleansing and detox, you know,and all of these things kind of
like the typical.
You know, when you thinknatural healing, you know that,
um, and I had been takingclasses from a lady you know who
(05:53):
had been an MD at one point andyou know she stopped practicing
medicine to teach naturalhealing.
And you know, I was just, youknow, very, very into that and I
first found out abouthomeopathy.
I mean, I didn't even know whatit was.
I'd probably heard the word atsome point, but you know, if
somebody had asked me, Iprobably would have said it was
herbs or something.
I mean, I had no idea.
(06:13):
And people were talking aboutit in the comments section of a
Facebook post about fever, likealternatives for Tylenol to
bring a fever down and what todo, and people were talking
about Belladonna and JoetteCalabrese's blog and so I
thought that was interesting andI went and checked out her blog
.
I was very surprised to findthat homeopathy comes in these
(06:37):
little tubes of sugar pills withLatin names.
I mean, I never would haveguessed that in a million years.
And I was reading about it andI just thought there's no
possible way that could work,because you know it's not doing
the detox and the cleansing andthe you know the diet and you
know, and it's like you've gotto cut out your dairy and your
gluten and do this and do that.
And it's like I, you know, Ihad, you know, all that website
(07:02):
and I didn't look at it againfor months.
And then some months later, Igot a ferociously itchy
infection.
I don't know if it's a yeastinfection, a bacterial infection
, but none of the natural stuffI knew to do was working.
And, um, I did finally go tothe doctor.
(07:24):
I was using garlic for it whichkilled everything, but I was
still itching.
I went to the doctor, you knowthey, you know, took a swab and
ran tests and it's like you'renegative for everything and we
don't know why you're itchy.
And so they sent me home withantibiotics, antifungal and
steroids.
They're like try the antifungalfirst.
If that doesn't work, try theantibiotics.
If that doesn't work, then somepeople just have idiopathic
(07:46):
itching and use the steroids andthat's it.
And I didn't want to do any ofthat, and so I'm frantically
looking for what else can I do,and I remember Joette's blog,
which, as you know, issearchable, so I'm looking to
see what does she have in there?
And, you know, is there someinformation on something that
maybe can help me?
And so I got, I got some of theremedies in there.
(08:07):
I got the remedies for theyeast infection, I got the
remedies for the bacterialinfection, which you know were
very similar, and and this hadbeen going on for about three
weeks that I had not slept afull night because of this.
I was miserable and I couldhardly function.
And within taking one dose ofarsenic amalbum, I woke up the
next morning with no itching andI was completely amazed.
(08:33):
I mean, I just kind of woke updisoriented.
It's like something's missing,what's wrong.
It's like oh, it's the itching,that is what is gone.
And it came back like a littlebit throughout the day.
And so, you know, I I added inthe heparsulf for that and then
I just took the arsenic, amalbumand heparsulf and those were
the remedies from her blog and Idid that twice a day and it
(08:53):
totally cleared up within abouta week a little over a week and
have never had an issue with itagain.
You know and that was one ofthe things the doctor said is
it's very common for people tobe back to the doctor within
about six weeks with another one.
So that was the beginning andthat was what made me realize
that I do not have all theanswers and that homeopathy was
(09:14):
a big missing piece of my puzzle.
So then you know, I'm just likefrantically reading Joette's
blog and, you know, orderingremedies.
You know I had I was stillordering from Amazon because I
didn't know where else to getremedies and I had a tube of
remedies showing up, you know,every couple of days.
And you know my husband'slooking at all these packages
and you know wondering how longis this going to continue.
(09:36):
You know we have a little tubeof pills that shows up every
couple of days and you know, andthen I you know I got the
gateway, you know, foundMelissa's class.
And then, you know, and I didalso have some chronic things
too.
You know that was like thefirst wow moment, that it was
like I don't understand how thisworks and I don't even care how
it works.
(09:56):
It's amazing and I have tolearn more.
Um, but then the chronic things.
I had some eczema on my handsand I had been struggling with
that since 2019.
It started in 2019 and it wasawful and it would crack and it
would bleed.
I mean, I went for probablyabout two years that I could not
use soap on my hands.
(10:17):
I had a cleaner that was likedistilled water and vinegar with
a little vodka and somepeppermint oil.
I would use that if I reallyhad to get my hands dirty or I
would wear gloves and I justtried my best to not use any
cleanser on my hands becausethey were so bad and my hands
have totally cleared up.
I had food sensitivities thatwere contributing to that.
(10:40):
You know, not like majorallergies, but dairy and gluten
were definitely not my friend.
I can eat whatever I want andmy skin does not have a flare up
and and I also kind of had somemild acne just you know, from
when I was a teenager never wentaway.
I mean, I'm almost 40 now andum, and that's finally gone and
(11:00):
that I wasn't really trying toget rid of that, just in working
on other things it just kind ofwent away.
And then, oh, and the catallergy.
I was very badly allergic tocats.
My cat that I currently haveshowed up on my doorstep right
around the time I startedlearning about homeopathy and my
(11:22):
plan was just to help him outthrough the winter, so I would
let him stay in the house.
I mean, he was just a stray catthat the winter, so I would let
him stay in the house.
I mean, he was just a stray catthat I started feeding and I'd
let him stay in the house if itwas a really cold night which
you know, I live in Houston, wedon't have that many really cold
nights but within a couplehours of having him in the house
I would be coughing andwheezing, you know, like I was
about to die.
And if I had him in the housefor more than a night or two, I
(11:53):
mean it was just like I need abreak.
He's got to go outside, and Ididn't think I would ever be
able to have a full-time cat.
Well, that cat is my cat now.
He sleeps with me every nightand I have no issues with him.
I love it.
Oh my gosh, I love it.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
Those are some great success stories.
I love it.
Oh my gosh, I love it.
Those are some great successstories.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
That's just.
That's just what's happened inmy life.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Right, right, it's amazing.
Yeah, I love it.
And so you got.
You got all excited and youstarted using homeopathy and,
for yourself and your family,did you start treating your
husband.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
Oh yeah, oh yes, he was.
He was one of my, my earlyGuinea pigs and I can tell you
sepia is the remedy that madehim a believer.
Um, but also, I mean, one ofthe early things that happened.
I remember you know he had andthis was I first, this was, this
was in 22.
So it was, you know, very earlyon and you know I, I had gotten
(12:42):
the Banerjee kit from Taprootswhich you know, the friend that
told me about you in the firstplace.
She had recommended that it'slike if I had it to do over
again, I would get this and Ithought this thing is really
expensive, it's kind of aninvestment.
But I did buy it and that kitpaid for itself within the first
year of owning it.
(13:02):
It paid for itself within thefirst year of owning it.
So my husband his eye infectionand I used a Banerjee protocol
for that.
It was a quite severe infectionand you know, at first you know
he was thinking it wasallergies tried some of the
allergy remedies.
It didn't really do too muchand I'm looking in the Banerjee
book and there was a protocolfor conjunctivitis and within 24
(13:24):
hours it started to turn aroundand then he mentioned to me
that he had had a similarinfection maybe five years
earlier.
And I asked him you know, he'sa pretty new husband, so I
hadn't known him a full fiveyears at the time and so I asked
him well, you know so whathappened that time?
I said, did it just, you know,go away on its own, because he's
, you know, like most men.
(13:45):
It's not going to go to thedoctor unless he thinks he's
going to die sometime within thenext 24 hours.
And um, and he said no.
After about three days hisvision started to go black and
he went to the doctor.
Oh yeah, and so this was verysimilar.
No drama, didn't go to thedoctor, it cleared up within
(14:05):
about a week just with thehomeopathy.
You know, and I'm not sayingdon't go to the doctor, but I
kind of gauge things.
It's like if it's gettingbetter, then you know it's
getting better and I've had aton of success with that
Banerjee protocol forconjunctivitis.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
I feel, I want to say I want to say a hundred percent
.
I feel like it works everysingle time.
It's a good one, it's a reallygood one.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
I w.
I was amazed.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
And then you know another one of the early
successes.
My cat is also a frequentrecipient of homeopathy, and so
and I can't remember if this wasbefore or after my husband's
eye infection and so I can'tremember if this was before or
after my husband's eye infection.
But the cat got a urinaryblockage and I used homeopathy
for him.
He was unblocked within fourhours and saved us an emergency
(14:58):
trip to the vet, and I can tellyou my cat much prefers
homeopathy to go into theemergency room to be
catheterized.
Of course I love it and I waskeeping a close eye on him.
It's like he's not better bybedtime.
We're going to the emergencyroom.
But he got better and I'vesince changed his diet and he
has never had another one since.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
But that the first time it happened that was a $700
bill.
Yeah, and to not have to dothat, so that right there, paid
for my homeopathy kit.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
Oh, so good, so good.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
I don't have anything specific, except I was, um, I
did want to ask about your likeover time, as you've been,
because your story has lots ofdifferent things.
Okay, I'm using this for myfamily too.
(15:58):
I want to do this, or I think Iwant to do this as a job, or
you know what I mean.
Like how did it become like abigger part of your life?
But I do feel like this kind ofhappens a lot.
Like how do you not yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (16:06):
Well, I mean, even even before I found homeopathy,
I was wanting to, you know,start some kind of like a
natural health coaching businessor do something.
And I had had some really goodresults just in my you know, pre
homeopathy life, you know,helping friends and family with
things.
And then, when I foundhomeopathy, I was like I can't
(16:27):
keep going in this directionbecause I just feel like so much
is missing.
And I started using homeopathymore and more and more and I
just felt like I can't even goin this other direction anymore.
But I also kind of felt likestarting over.
Well, how long is that going totake and how do I do that?
And maybe it's too late.
(16:48):
And and so I started, startedlooking at where I find out
about Rob and Murphy's class.
I know, melissa, you're analumni, but there was also a
lady in the Facebook group whowas talking about it and I think
maybe she had shared somethings from the Lotus website.
(17:08):
And so I was looking on thereand looking at the requirements
and how long it takes to getthrough it.
And then after a while, I waslike you know what, I'm just
going to do it, you know, and Iremember you know, something
that my aunt told me many yearsago is time passes anyway, and
in two years you could eitherhave a certificate in homeopathy
(17:28):
or you could be sitting rightwhere you are but time will pass
anyway.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
Yeah, that's good.
Speaker 3 (17:34):
And so, you know, just started putting one foot in
front of the other, but I justgot to be where.
Now it's like that's the firstthing I do is homeopathy.
I don't really even think aboutany of these other things and
it's, I feel, like it's so muchmore accessible and so much
easier for people to use.
Because you know my old way,you know my old life.
(17:57):
If somebody asked me, what doyou do about?
You know this or that or theother?
You know, a big part of theanswer was going to be,
essentially, you're never goingto eat anything fun again.
Because you know no processedfood and no sugar and no gluten
and no dairy, no this and nothat.
And it's like turn your wholeentire life upside down.
And you know, and just the wayyou know, there's, there's
(18:17):
toxins everywhere.
You know just the world the wayit is.
It is very, very hard to avoidall of these things and to not
have to.
I mean, now my approach is well, try your best and pray over
your food, and that's about it.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
Love it, yep.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
And it's so liberating and because I worked
so hard on the eczema on myhands.
I mean, I didn't eat fun things.
I, you know, didn't eatprocessed food and I didn't eat
dairy and I didn't eat glutenand I didn't eat sugar, and if I
one little thing that I wasn'tsupposed to eat, I would have a
flare up.
That would take me a week tocalm down and it was so hard and
it didn't.
It didn't get.
Well, it was all that work totread water and now to be able
(19:05):
to eat whatever I want.
You know, not that I should andI try not to, but I can.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
That's right, that's what it is.
Yeah, so that you can go.
You know what I tell people?
My, my, the minimal goal isthat you can go to a party or a
restaurant and not have to worryabout what's in the food.
The ultimate goal is that youcan purposely eat these things,
at least sometimes.
You know maybe you can't overdoit, but you know we're.
(19:35):
We're not going to go back toeating Doritos and whatever else
I used to like to eat.
I still like Doritos, but Ihave a little bit occasionally
Right and I'm fine, it doesn't,doesn't bother me.
Where I thought before Ithought that was it forever.
(19:55):
I can never have gluten ordairy or corn ever again.
Speaker 3 (20:01):
I love it yeah, it's, it's been so liberating and
it's just the contrast is nightand day, you know.
And then also, um, you know, asI have, you know, gotten more
into homeopathy, the other thingI started to realize is that a
lot of these things that I usedto do, even though they're
natural, they, some of them, arestill suppressive.
(20:23):
Where it's acting on theproblem, it's not stimulating
your body to heal the problem.
You know and I'm thinking, youknow, like the endless parasite
cleanse is.
I mean, I was definitely thatperson.
It's like you got to get yourparasites out and you know, if
you have a problem, parasitesare probably a big part of it.
And I, I mean, I remembersomebody asking in your class,
you know, when I was takinggateway, you know well, what do
(20:44):
you do about parasites.
And I was just on the edge ofmy seat to find out what, yeah,
what it tell us, what do you doabout them.
And I remember your answer.
I think it's like, well, if youdon't have a medical diagnosis
or you haven't actually seen aworm, then nothing, you know,
don't worry about it.
And you know and I've sincelearned that you know, if you
have parasites, a lot of timesthey're the cleanup crew.
(21:04):
They're there for a reason, butas you, you know, as you
improve your vitality, a lot ofthese things will just go away.
And I saw that, you know that,with my cat as well.
So you know he had fleas lastsummer.
Last summer, it feels likeforever ago.
And the summer before that,when he had fleas, I had tried
(21:30):
homeopathy.
You know, I've tried someremedies, tried some of this,
tried some of that, and I justcouldn't get it under control.
I ended up giving him the fleamedicine.
Shortly after that he came downwith food allergies and ataxia
and I, you know, I mean it wasmaybe a month later In my mind I
think that's connected andataxia is a side effect that's
(21:50):
listed for these flea remedies.
So then when he got fleas againthe following year, last summer,
I, you know, was determined.
It's like I've got to figureout a way to deal with this
without giving him flea medicine, because I didn't.
You know, he's he's doingreally well and when he has like
a dizzy spell I give himhomeopathy and he hasn't had one
in a really long time.
(22:10):
But I was determined I was notgiving him more flea medicine
and I was reading, you know,another homeopath and another
group was talking about thefleas and just raising the
animal's vitality and they willgo away.
And she didn't have to gothrough even you know, the
endless vacuuming and all thecrazy things we do to get rid of
fleas naturally.
(22:31):
And I tried some differentremedies with him and I don't
know it was a different remedy,but I don't know if there was
just some, you know, an elementof, you know, faith or
determination or something, butthose fleas went away and I was
using a little bit of it'scalled parasite powder.
(22:51):
It's got diatomaceous earth and, I think, some neem and some
things.
I'd dust him with that everyday.
You, you know, comb him forfleas, give him his remedy.
Um, and it didn't take thatlong.
It was within a few weeks andthe fleas went love it.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Yep, I love it.
My dogs haven't had fleas ortick.
They don't get the occasionaltick, but we don't battle.
We live out here in the woods.
My dogs don't get fleas andticks.
Yeah, yep.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
Go.
So I do want to know, just I'minterested in when you were
doing the health coach or youwanted to do that and then
homeopathy do you like thepeople interaction more, or do
you like the learning, like thedesire to learn, or maybe both?
I'm sure there's elements ofboth.
(23:43):
Obviously you have to be sortof a people person to want to do
coaching, but um, was it like?
I love all this stuff, I can'twait to help other people or the
hunger for the knowledge.
Does that make sense?
Obviously there's elements ofboth, but which one was more
enticing to you at the beginning?
Speaker 3 (24:04):
It's hard to say.
I think it's definitely both,and just finding out that
there's solutions to things thatI thought were unsolvable and
just that you think there'sthere's nothing you can do about
this.
And you know, and one of thethings that I learned, you know
from from that, you know fromthe more naturopathic, I guess
method teaching.
(24:25):
You know, the things I learnedthat I have carried with me is
scrap meats.
I still use scrap meats a lotand I've seen really good
results with that.
So I love using that inconjunction with homeopathy.
But that's the only thing thatI've really carried with me that
I still use and because I dofeel like it's something that's
not suppressive but anyways.
(24:46):
So I kind of got a little bitoff track.
So, to answer your question,yes, both.
So I love learning about thesethings, but just being able to
help somebody and being able tooffer somebody some hope, you
know when they're like I havebone on bone pain and I don't
know what to do about it.
And you know, like these scrapmeats I mean I think everybody
I've ever given these to youknow share the recipe.
They tried it.
They'll notice a differencewithin about a week.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
Okay, so like you make a broth out of it, or what
do you?
What are you saying?
Speaker 3 (25:21):
I mean, I get what you got me, like.
I know what those are, what doyou do with them?
I?
Speaker 1 (25:24):
make a soup and the broth by itself is probably not
enough.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
You got to eat the squishy bits.
You eat it, you do.
All right, you do.
But I mean, I have seen ahernia heal without medical
intervention.
And even you know I had achronic neck injury from being
in multiple car accidents, youknow, and that healed before I
ever found out about homeopathy,just from that.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
Were you eating the soup every single day?
Speaker 3 (25:45):
Um, not every day.
I was eating it several times aweek for a while.
But I feel like it's somethingthat kind of once you, you know,
I mean, I mean we don't reallyeat collagen in this country, I
mean it's, you know, steak andboneless, skinless chicken
breasts, so we don't get a lotof that connective tissue.
But I feel like once you kindof have restored your reserves,
you don't need to eat it veryoften.
I hardly ever eat it anymoreand homeopathy also helps a lot.
(26:09):
But I feel like sometimes, youknow, with some of these things
like bone on bone pain orsomething where you know
homeopathy can't make you regrowcartilage, but giving your body
these building blocks, I'm Ihave been absolutely shocked at
what will heal.
And I think homeopathy juststimulates that healing process
and just helps it go even faster.
(26:29):
Could post your recipe?
Speaker 2 (26:31):
is that something you want to share publicly with
everyone yeah, yeah, I can shareit.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
I actually shared it in the Facebook group once upon
a time.
Um, it's, it's in theresomewhere, but I can definitely
send it to you and okay, andthen we'll.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
we'll post it with this video and with the with the
podcast episode.
Yeah, okay.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
Um, okay, another question, like now that you've
been doing, I mean taking casesfor a year, a little over a year
, you said, um, what are some ofyour?
So a couple of questions.
So one have you found an areathat you are really loving to
serve, or is it just all of it?
(27:19):
And then, what are some of your?
Like, just some of yourfavorite stories, some stories
of your cases found a particulararea.
Speaker 3 (27:34):
That's, like, you know, my area.
But I just love all of it.
I mean, I love helping peopleand especially, you know, when
somebody comes back and they aredoing so much better, that's
the best feeling in the world.
And so one of them probably mymost dramatic one I had this
(27:54):
lady who came with GERD.
She had a bunch of other things.
That was one of the main things.
And she had been on proton pumpinhibitors for 40 years.
She got off of those withinnine days and by the time of the
follow-up she wasn't evenneeding the remedy anymore.
I mean, she was eating baconand everything.
(28:16):
And also same lady she also, Ibelieve she was diabetic as well
and she had neuropathy in herlegs and feet and she had been
on gabapentin for many, manyyears, like over 10 years.
She had tried many times to getoff of it.
She got off of her gabapentinwithin 30 days and the tingling
and the feeling like these werewalking around on her legs.
(28:37):
All that was gone.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (28:41):
And I remember her comment to me was that if she
had not lived it she would nothave believed it's possible.
And you know, and I was amazedtoo, because some of sometimes
you know these, you know olderpeople who have.
You know they've been onallopathic medicine for a long
time.
You know there's a lot ofsuppression and sometimes it can
take a really long time.
And you know, at the follow up,you know hearing about this
(29:03):
like she was amazed, I wasamazed.
It was.
It was like very inspiring.
Speaker 1 (29:09):
That is very cool, I do think.
Sometimes people come back andI'm like I expected it to work,
obviously, or I wouldn't havesaid to do that, but when it
works that fast or thatdramatically, I'm even like wow.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
Yeah, we're amazed.
Speaker 3 (29:26):
Yeah, I was thinking this could take some time and
you know it might.
You know, it's like I expectedto see something, but I did not.
Speaker 2 (29:33):
I didn't really expect it to work that fast,
yeah, wow, what else, kimberly,you have another story.
Speaker 3 (29:39):
Yeah, yeah.
So I had a nine month old babywho had been coughing for six
months, which is a very longtime when you're only nine
months old, and the coughresolved within the first
appointment, and a lot of timesyou don't find out why somebody
doesn't come back.
But in this case I was alsoseeing the, his brother, and so
(30:02):
you know the mom, you know,booked a con book to follow up
consult for the brother and thenat his consult she mentioned
that she you know why she hadnot made a follow-up for the
baby and that was because he gotwell and he was doing great.
So, it's just like I just don'tthink he needs a follow-up.
You know his spine and it'slike I agree, if he's doing
great, he's doing great.
Speaker 2 (30:21):
Love it.
That's awesome.
What else should we know fromKimberly?
Speaker 1 (30:29):
Well, on a personal note, I mean I would love to
know what do you like to do inyour spare time?
Tell us about your family, Idon't know.
Speaker 3 (30:38):
I mean, I talk to my mom about every day, um, and she
, she also is a frequentrecipient of homeopathic help.
Um, I had some great storieswith her as well, and so my mom,
(31:03):
she, she lives fairly close, soI see her pretty frequently
probably not as often as I wouldlike, but she's about an hour
and a half away, so sometimesit's just hard to find time to,
you know, to make the drive outthere.
But, um, um, I also have adegree in classical guitar.
I used to, you know, once upona time I was going to be a
(31:24):
musician.
So, um, definitely, a long pastlife.
Um, I feel like homeopathy isreally the main thing.
I mean, it's, it's somethingthat gives me energy.
I don't feel like it's work.
Um, you know, I do still have afull-time corporate job, and
(31:44):
then I, you know, I dohomeopathy, you know, on the
weekends, um, you know, and put,you know, put my care plans
together.
You know, at night, after work,um, but it's just something
that I love to do, it gives meenergy and it's always just
something I'm excited to.
To come home and do, um, Ihaven't really.
(32:05):
I used to dance, I used to doWest coast swing, and that's
actually how I met my husband.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
That's fun dancing.
Speaker 3 (32:13):
Yeah, it is, and I actually I used to go to
competitions and like that wasyou know what I was doing back
when I was young and single anddidn't have anything better to
spend my money on.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (32:30):
So you know, I met my husband and I feel like I've
become another one of thosepeople who it's like, yeah, we
met dancing and then we neverwent again.
We do every now and then.
I think also things justchanged a lot with COVID and
kind of the community and it'sjust like the community just
really kind of atrophied a lot.
So but we've been talking aboutwe should go dancing sometime
(32:51):
soon, so we'll probably go.
And I also do country Western.
Speaker 2 (32:54):
I mean I live in a suburb of Houston so everybody
does country dancing around hereof doing this is so that
potential clients can see youand hear your voice and just see
all the the beauty that I seeall the time.
(33:19):
Every time I talk to you and,um, you know we're in, we're in
close contact.
I always tell people, you know,when they, when I tell them you
can work with Kimberly, um, orme, and so you know, all eczema
cases go to Bree.
So if it's not eczema, then I'mlike you know I've got, I've
(33:39):
got Kimberly or Abby or me, andthen I just, you know, get to
tell them.
It's fine for me to tell themwhat I think about you, but for
them, I think now they're goingto get to see you and hear your
voice and hear your story and itjust makes it nicer just to
(34:01):
know, kind of, who you're goingto be working with ahead of time
.
So is there anything else youwant to add, Kimberly, that
