Description

From meteorologist to Amish health care provider. Today, I had the fortune to interview one of my Mentors, Dr. Emily Hecker, DC. Emily and I discussed her niche in working with the Amish, how at age 8 she became convinced of a career path that she held on to for nearly 15 years, and how in an instance she decided to change careers entirely.

Check the timestamps below if you’re short on time and want to dive down a specific topic!
