Soak in the healing, vibrational nectar of the hive.

We are honored to welcome the Bee Oracle herself, Onyx Baird, a holistic beekeeper, filmmaker and conservationist devoted to deepening the conscious relationship between bees, Earth, and humanity.

We explore the intersection of art, science and spirituality in beekeeping, the profound intelligence of bees, and how we can support and honor these vital pollinators. Onyx shares her journey from wildlife scientist to intuitive beekeeper, her upcoming documentary Amrita, and why the future of sustainable beekeeping requires a radical shift in perspective.

From the ancient rituals of bee priestesses to the methodology of modern beekeeping, this conversation will open your heart and expand your awareness of our exquisite, most sacred pollinators.

We Discuss:

• Onyx's unexpected path to becoming a steward of the Bees
• The intelligence of bees and what they can teach us
• The importance of wild vs. conventional beekeeping and ethical honey harvesting
• Powerful medicinal properties of honey, propolis, and bee venom therapy
• Amrita: Onyx’s documentary about the movement of women conserving wild honeybees across the world, with touchpoints in Hawaii, Portugal and Mexico
• Nitsa and Onyx’s adventures filming in the Yucatán
• How we can support and protect bees in our daily lives
