Summary
My most beloved herbal elder and I talk about our favorite subject- women throughout time using plants for self care, family healing, and community connection. After nearly 4 decades as a practicing herbalist and teacher, and in an age of informational overabundance, Kami has seen what actually works when it comes to truly embodying herbal knowing.
Find Kami’s freebies & learn more about Handcrafted Healing Herbal Oils (including the peek at what you see when you log in to the course).
Two Patreon bonuses for this episode- an extended conversation with Kami where we share our stories of Mothering Without Elders, and two free videos with Kami entitled Garden Herb Walk- meet 9 favorite garden herbs that can calm the nerves, help with digestion, heal the skin, kick a cold, and more! Let’s meet beautiful edible and medicinal flowers, weeds, leaves and seeds and find out which ones are used for what.
