Raw Remedies - Natural Health for People and Pets
Identifying an educator vs an influencer in the holistic pet space with Jessica Fisher
Welcome back to Jessica Fisher of The Pet Parenting Reset! In this episode, we discuss the distinction between educators and influencers, the importance of lifelong learning, and the impact of misinformation in the holistic pet community. We explore the role of content creators, the science behind holistic practices, the benefits of raw milk, the need for credibility and transparency in the pet care space, the effectiveness of homeopathy, the complexities of vaccination, the controversy surrounding the drug Librella, and so much more. If it's controversial, we talked about it! We also hone in on the role of influencers in pet health, the importance of informed consent in veterinary practices, and the necessity for continuous learning in veterinary care with an emphasis on the need for education over shame and the importance of understanding the nuances in pet health and nutrition. This is a longer than usual episode but something I feel everyone in the natural pet space should listen to, especially if you're looking for trusted sources of information for your fur family.
