Andrew Botsford—an amazing PANS Dad and a steady light in our community—joins us for a deeply moving conversation. He walks us through their family’s journey from onset and symptoms to the many treatments they tried in hopes of helping their daughter heal. Their road ultimately led to homeopathy, and life has looked beautifully different since beginning this healing journey.
When you’re parenting a child with PANS/PANDAS, it can be hard to tell what’s what — is it a symptom, a personality trait, part of how they’re wired, or just age-appropriate behavior? The ladies dive into this relatable topic in our latest episode — we hope you’ll listen in!
In this episode, Dr. Bahr and Jody dive into a question they hear all the time: when using homeopathy, can we focus on just one symptom—the main one? And why do those smaller, less troubling symptoms matter so much in the healing process?
In this episode of Mom and Doc Talk, Dr. Bahr and Jody sit down with Toni Wilkinson to share a mother’s perspective on navigating her son’s PANS/PANDAS struggles and healing journey. Toni discusses the emotional impact on her family, the role of homeopathy, and the hope that emerges through patience, support, and trusting the process.
Foundations of health — we’re diving in! In this episode, we explore how sleep, sunlight, and nutrition shape overall well-being, sharing personal insights along the way. We highlight how lasting health comes from small, consistent habits—like movement, connection, and time in nature—not perfection. And of course, how homeopathy can help make it all feel achievable.
In today's episode, we are joined by Dr. Rowley to dive into what makes homeopathy so unique—how finding the right remedy depends on each person’s individual susceptibility. We also explore why the most powerful remedies can sometimes look a little scary on the surface, and why it’s worth rethinking what “toxic” really means in the context of healing.
We couldn’t be more grateful to welcome back this incredible (now 14-year-old!) guest. Amelia’s got some truly exciting updates on her PANS/PANDAS healing journey, plus plenty of hope for the tweens and teens still fighting their way through it. Her progress is inspiring, her wisdom is real, and this is absolutely an episode you don’t want to miss.
In this heartfelt conversation, Dr. Bahr and Jody explore the evolution of holiday experiences for families dealing with and healing from PANS/PANDAS, and Jody shares her own family’s journey.
Today, we break down the differences between homeopathy, isopathy, LDI, and LDA, and why understanding each person’s unique susceptibility matters for true healing. We dive into homeopathy’s law of similars and how it contrasts with isopathy’s “same cures same” approach. Oftentimes, this is why chasing symptoms often leads to short-term fixes. Join us by listening along!
Sometimes, as we move through the healing journey, success is all about timing. When should you introduce physical therapy, lifestyle shifts, or emotionally-based therapies alongside homeopathy? In this episode, Dr. Bahr, Jody, and special guest Dr. Ben Zorensky share their insights on finding the right moment to add each piece to your family’s healing plan.
In this heartfelt episode, Michelle opens up about her journey as a mom navigating the challenges of PANS/PANDAS with her son. She shares the ups and downs of their path — from early struggles and countless interventions to the hope and healing they found through homeopathy. Michelle reminds us that every child’s journey is unique, but no parent has to walk it alone. Through storytelling, advocacy, and community, she’s helping shed light on a condition that's too often misunderstood.
In this week’s Mom & Doc Talk, Dr. Jessica Moore joins us to unpack one of the most misunderstood parts of childhood illness — fevers. We talk about why fevers are actually a good thing, what they tell us about the immune system, when to let them run their course, and how homeopathy can support the body through them. If you’re a parent of a child with PANS or PANDAS, this one’s especially for you — it’ll change how you see fevers forever.
Rachel Roberts from the Homeopathy Research Institute joins us all the way from the UK to share about the incredible work she and her team are doing to advance homeopathy research. We feel so grateful for this conversation—and hope it sparks the same excitement and curiosity in you that it did in us!
In this episode, the lovely Dr. Darin Ingels joins Dr. Bahr and Jody to talk all things environmental medicine. We’re talking chemicals, fragrance, dyes, mold, pesticides, micro-plastics, and more. Plus, easy steps you can take TODAY to start to remove obstacles to healing in your environment.
In this episode, Jamie joins us to share her son’s healing journey — the highs, the lows, and the breakthroughs along the way. We’re thankful for her openness and courage in telling her family’s story.
Every child is unique, and so is their healing journey! Homeopathy is a very individualized modality of naturopathic medicine, and what works for one child will not work for the next. That is why it’s so important to have a knowledgeable homeopath in your corner to navigate the journey with you. In this episode, Dr. Bahr and Jody unpack how dosing strategies play a big role in managing the healing journey.
Mom Candace joins the ladies in this episode to share her son’s journey. They navigated the challenges of an ASD and P/P combination—and are finding a happy ending in healing. Now, their family is rediscovering themselves and watching their world open wide with new possibilities. A big thank-you to Candace for opening up and sharing this inspiring story of hope.
We are tiptoeing into this episode knowing fully that this topic is a TOUGH one. Trust us - we get it. Let’s talk about screen time.
For this episode, we’re joined by a very special guest: Kyle Gunderman, Dr. Bahr’s husband and the steady force beside her through it all. As our Chief Operations Officer, Kyle shares what it’s like to build and grow a mission-driven practice from the inside out.
Today, we are joined by Sarah Williams, who has graciously come to share her daughter’s healing journey with you all. It is truly a story of perseverance. Thank you Sarah for your honesty, transparency, and hope!  Trigger warning - mentions of depression and attempted suicide.
