  • Lost Power of the Word & Unearthing Motherwort for When You Need a Hug
    In the Intro to this episode, we discuss what happens in the organic telling and receiving of a story. I talk about the transference of information at a cellular level, and the mass initiation humanity is currently in. I also touch on how our services and products in the world may only be a part of the whole in our soul mission; that when we feel the 'calling' to do a particular act it does not mean that we show up in our whole ability. It will still take time, practice, and faith to follow the path laid out.
    I discuss why it is important for our subtle body to have the space to connect with narrative and why words hold power to open worlds. I also, through my latest personal challenge of what I call the 'spiral,' talk about plant supports for anxiety, emotional balance, and assistance along our personal road. I also take some space to observe how the unearthing of the lost medicine of storytelling is indelibility connected to the powerful plant ally Motherwort.

  • The Neighbours from Heel & Plants for our Emergency Kits
    In this episode I begin to practice my story telling abilities with an embarrassing learning experience. A problem for me is that I feel a need to filter what comes out of my mouth and for a good story moving past this may be necessary. This tale would be so much better with all the parts, nonetheless I still touch on the points I want to make. I’m not sure how successful I was in describing the theme of how our spirit, mind and body each has a representation of a specific thought or energy in our daily events, but that is what I wanted to do. One happening has three versions of its manifestation. When I hurt my sole, I really did hurt my soul.
    I will talk about the opportunity to learn in what appear to be awful situations. I also discuss the responsibility we have for our environment and to own what we may be accountable for, even when we initially feel like a victim.
    I observe how important it is to go through the healing process and not take short cuts, if we are going to learn and truly shift for good through our trials. I will discuss some of the clues that plants offer us to know how they work in the body, without having a book in front of you. I also bring up specific herbs that I used to help heal my heel, and they are not the hero herbs that you may think. It reminds me of how we take for granted what is often already in the cupboard.
    I’m happy to report since this recording the situation has been resolved and our neighbours from heel have moved on.

  • The Forgotten Placenta with Adrian, Anna and Aria (Really, they ran back for it!)
    I recorded this episode in 2024 with Adrian Neagu, Anna Cyzon-Neagu and their then two-week-old daughter Aria born on the total solar eclipse on April 8, 2024. I have so much gratitude that Adrian and Anna entrusted me with such an intimate time. We talk about the chaos and blessing of their unexpected pregnancy. How it not only tested them as individuals but strengthened the bond they share and their own personal discernment in life. They felt being in the entertainment world prepared them fully to take the birthing stage.
    Anna discusses the unnecessary fear-based opinions that were shared with her as an expecting mother, and how this experience has given her an inner standing of allowing yourself to grow and move into alignment, rather than stubbornly fighting for the story you think you want. We also discuss the many versions of who we are, and the internal monsters that we are learning to grow through. She shares some humorous Polish wisdom and what it looks like to keep her online commitments while leaking and breast feeding, two things of which she did not see herself doing. What is for you will find you!
    Adrian offers important ‘how to’s’ on advocating for self and baby when birthing in a hospital setting, along with what happened when forgetting the placenta in the communal freezer. Together they remind us of when we are in a place of allowing, this life script often has much more to offer than what we are able to conceive of. Nonetheless, we must know we are the directors of this story, and it is up to us to feel for what is right for our individual selves, along with the ability to stand in that power.

From the publisher's feed

This podcast is inspired by the rich sharing of traditional wisdom and know how through story telling. My name is Michelle Rosetta, and I believe the remedy our communities deeply require for health and well-being is rooted in our own raw and unedited tales. Some of what we fear to speak or that which is seemingly mundane to us, is exactly what those around us may need to hear in the way we speak our narrative.
