This episode is a response to the times; reflections and musings on 2026.

I speak to why herbalism feels not only relevant, but essential in the face of global crisis. This is about creating health sovereignty, building community resilience, and remembering the value of local, plant-based knowledge.

I share what I’ve been learning from the plants, and why this way of working with medicine cannot be replaced by AI. If anything, it feels more needed than ever.

In this episode, I touch on:

• Herbalism in the context of global uncertainty
• Creating health sovereignty in your own life
• Building and leaning into community resilience
• What plants are teaching us in this moment
• The limits of AI in relation to embodied, plant-based medicine
• Why returning to the land and local knowledge matters
