Nature, Surrender, and the Medicine We Forgot We Had with Jared Pickard
What if the medicine we’re searching for isn’t found in a pill… but in nature, rhythm, and surrender?
In this powerful episode of Beyond The Pills, Josh Rimany sits down with Jared Pickard, co-founder of Be Here Farm & Nature, biodynamic farmer, wellness visionary, and creator of the Being Human self-mastery program. Together, they explore what it truly means to heal—body, mind, and spirit—by reconnecting with the natural rhythms of life.
Jared shares his extraordinary personal journey: from working on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange to walking away from Wall Street, immersing himself in biodynamic farming, and ultimately losing everything he had built in the devastating California wildfires of 2020. What emerged from the ashes wasn’t just loss—but clarity, purpose, and a completely unexpected calling.
Out of that fire was born Be Here Farm & Nature, a biodynamic skincare and wellness brand rooted in reverence for the land, seasonal rhythms, and energetic integrity. Jared recounts the surreal moment of evacuating with nothing but his family—and a single set of botanical oils that would later become the brand’s flagship product, the Summer Solstice Serum.
But this conversation goes far beyond skincare.
Josh and Jared dive deep into:
- Why nature and connection may be the most powerful medicine of our time
- How surrender—not force—often unlocks the next chapter of healing and purpose
- The role of biorhythms, seasons, and coherence in physical and emotional health
- Why modern life has pulled us out of alignment—and how to gently return
- Rudolf Steiner’s teachings and the foundation of the Being Human program
- Why clarity often comes after we stop trying to figure everything out
This episode is an invitation to slow down, listen more deeply, and remember what it means to be human in a world that has forgotten its rhythm.
If you’ve ever felt burned out, disconnected, or unsure why “doing all the right things” still isn’t working—this conversation may change the way you understand healing.
“Everyone has fires in their life. They’re just not always literal.”“You can’t heal what you’re disconnected from.”“Sometimes the most powerful choice is surrender.”
