In this episode of Women & the Businesses They Own, I sit down with Dr. Amy Todd, a naturopath (ND, CNHP) here in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
Amy’s journey into naturopathic medicine wasn’t just professional — it was deeply personal. After navigating her own health challenges and walking through significant health concerns with her daughter, she began digging deeper for answers. That search for solutions ultimately led her down the path of becoming a naturopathic doctor.
We talk about:
• Advocating for your child when answers aren’t easy
• The courage to pivot careers
• Trusting your instincts as a mother and a business owner
• Building a practice rooted in purpose
Here’s what we are meant to take with us today:
Sometimes our greatest calling is born from our hardest seasons. When we lean in instead of backing away, purpose begins to take shape.
This conversation is honest, hopeful, and empowering — especially for women who have had to fight for clarity in uncertain moments.
She Came. She Spoke. She Inspired.
