“What I like about homeopathic remedies is either they work or they don’t work.” - Sherrine

In this episode, we have the pleasure of chatting with Sherrine Richmond, an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse. We dive deep into the fascinating world of homeopathy and bust some of the common myths surrounding it.

Sherrine helps us break down what exactly homeopathy is all about and sheds light on why integrative medicine isn't as accessible or accepted as it should be. We take a trip back in time to explore the history of homeopathy, discover its three fundamental laws, and delve into why there hasn't been much research or funding dedicated to it. We also chat about how popular homeopathy is globally.

To wrap up our conversation, Sherrine shares with us her insights on what might lie ahead for homeopathy and even reveals a few of her favorite homeopathic remedies. Trust us, you won't want to miss this episode!

“In the ICU unit [I] put up a wall… I call[ed] it a ‘Happiness Wall’; where people had to sign a little card and [tell] how they were sharing happiness and what they were grateful for. And quite honestly, I don't care if you were a doctor or a surgeon, a technician or a nurse, if you didn't sign my wall, you didn't work on my family member.”
