Wild Healers
The wall has been built between Western medicine and alternative healing, and it's time to demolish it. Wild Healers is an innovative, inclusive podcast bridging the divide between science-based Western medical expertise and more ancient, intuitive healing for the modern era. Visionary hosts Dr. Megan Galaske, MD and Sara Rosser, CPM bring an expansive, transformative, and powerful message of hope for a healthcare system that is split at its core. They teach us that when the polarizing world of medicine is approached by sage, educated women, healing can begin...and they hope to provide a good laugh along the way. Dr. Megan Galaske, MD, is a physician trained in contemporary Western medicine with a passion for alternative healing and whole patient care. Sara Rosser, CPM is a home-birth midwife practicing with revered experts in the field at The Farm Midwifery Center in Summertown, TN.

Episode 8
In our continuing mini series "Racial Disparities in Healthcare", we have the great honor of hearing from Dr. Kooka Joseph, a palliative/hospice care healer, mother of two, and all-star doctor. She discusses her experiences in moving to the US from Haiti to continue her medical education, and what she has seen from both a patient and physician viewpoint. She enlightens us on what it means to provide end-of-life care for patients and families, and how much culture and racial/ethnic differences play into how we want to be treated in the most vulnerable of times. She provides actionable steps to how we may forge a better way forward in our treatment of Black patients and their families, as well as Black healthcare providers.
