How can nature be a part of your self-care ritual? Lisa Hasselman of Forest Garden Farm on Vashon Island, WA joins Carter Umhau, LMHC to share her story of leaving her job as an attorney and starting a job as a flower farmer on Vashon Island, WA. Lisa's story speaks to the risk it can be to defy expectations and live a more congruent life and how choosing farming has increased her mental health and sense of well-being. Whether you have farming aspirations or you're someone that simply wants to go outside more, consider how nature can be therapy for you.
