Healthy Skepticism
Thursday Jan 22, 2026
Thursday Jan 22, 2026
So often, we take advice from medical professionals at face value. Skepticism often gets a bad wrap - but what if a healthy bullshit meter is a good thing? Dr. Mel and Jase return to the pod with stories of their own skepticism in the world of alternative healing, as well as the patterns and experiences with naturopathy, homeopathy, herbs, energy work and more that have opened their minds. Perhaps the best medicine - for practitioners and patients alike - is the combination of healthy skepticism - and an open mind.
Dr. Mel is a board-certified Naturopathic Doctor through Rooted In the Wild based in Grand Rapids, MI. Dr. Mel brings together the best of modern and Western medicine with traditional, natural, Eastern medicine and modalities. Whether you are a skeptic and looking to dip your toe into naturopathic care - or fully embrace all the perspectives of healing - Dr. Mel meets you where you are as a bridge that embraces the full spectrum of wellness.
