There has been a long developed stigma surrounding herbs and their uses in our lives. Common marketing surrounding herbal remedies is often stamped with confusing labels like, “Not FDA approved” and “If pregnant or breastfeeding, consult a physician.”

What society has forgotten is that these herbs are the plants that our creator gave to us on this planet. They all have a purpose in our lives, from healing to beauty and everything in between—and they shouldn’t be considered dangerous if you are in tune with your body, whether you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or just wanting to seek more natural remedies. 

My guest in this episode is Arielle De Martinez, and she shares such a refreshing and freeing perspective surrounding herbs and their uses in our everyday lives. Coming from a background as a hairstylist, Arielle began to wake up to the reality that surrounds the beauty and healthcare industries. Shampoos and products that she was using in her client’s hair were loaded with the fragrances and endocrine disruptors that we are all striving to get away from when leading a more holistic life. 

If you’re considering leaning into herbalism in your everyday life and replacing some of the over-the-counter drugs and beauty products that plague our society with herbs, this episode is for you! I know you’re going to love it. Tune in today!
