Trusting Your Inner Compass

In this episode of Building Trust, Dr. Pam Jarboe shares openly about the emotional journey she’s been on while caring for her aging parents—and how that experience has deepened her understanding of trust, intuition, and the gaps that often exist in our healthcare system.

With her signature humor and heartfelt storytelling, Dr. Pam reminds us that challenge can be a teacher, and that we grow stronger when we show up fully, even when it’s hard.

She also reflects on her early days in chiropractic—from being unsure about physical touch to learning how sacred and powerful it can be. Her journey is full of relatable moments, mentorship lessons, and stories that bridge professional growth with personal healing. Dr. Pam invites us to embrace our sensitivity, stay present with those we serve, and recognize the incredible gift it is to know someone through touch. This episode is a beautiful reminder of the value of community, the impact of consistency, and the deep calling we all share to carry the chiropractic philosophy forward with love and integrity.
