2025 Highlights
The Practical Path® Medical Intuitive Training™ became an accredited Complementary Medical Association Continuing Professional Development Course.
The Complementary Medical Association promotes ethical, responsible, and professional complementary practices to the public and medical providers. We are delighted to affiliate with this groundbreaking organization.
I started the year with a stop in Portland, Oregon, on my way to the 2025 International Congress in Seattle. The New Renaissance Bookshop hosted me for a talk and a book signing event. We had a full house of wonderful people, who brought insightful questions and great energy.

I then headed up to Seattle, where I shared my research at the International Congress on Integrative Medicine & Health.
Every year the International Congress brings together scientists, educators, practitioners, and policy-makers from the U.S. and international communities to highlight scientific advances in the field of integrative medicine and health.
In August, I was honored to speak at IM4US Integrated Medicine for the Underserved 15th Anniversary Annual Conference at UCI Health, Susan Samueli Integrative Health Institute.
Integrative Medicine for the Underserved (IM4US) is a member-driven nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing whole person, evidence-informed, and culturally respectful care for people facing barriers to health.
I also presented at Nova Southeastern University, Florida’s Dr. Kiran C. Patel College of Osteopathic Medicine. The Dr. Kiran C. Patel College of Osteopathic Medicine provides learner-centered education, both nationally and internationally, for osteopathic medical students, postgraduate trainees, physicians, and other professionals.
