We’re talking all things plants and herbalism in this fertile conversation; Caitlin expands our perspective and understanding as we discuss and deconstruct preconceived ideas of herbalism, how second nature herbalism truly is to us as creatures of the earth, its role in our personal and collective well-being, ancestral healing and her home, Hawai’i, and building her intentional community-empowering business, Bloodroot Apothecary. 
An afterwards from Lydia: I'd like to say, as a result of this conversation and continuing to educate myself, I feel it is no longer appropriate for me to have Hawai'i on my list of possible places to move at this time (as I mentioned at the beginning of the episode). There are many ways those of us who feel the call to Hawai'i can honour it (like bringing Hawai'i to them with Caitlin's herbs) while honouring and supporting native Hawaiians in their fight for justice, autonomy, and their rights to their lands.
