Join us as we explore the remarkable story of Jacquelyn Clemmons. As a mother, postpartum doula, and devoted advocate for breastfeeding support, Jacquelyn's path has led her to establish the Okionu Birth Foundation. This transformative organization offers essential assistance during the postpartum phase, specifically tailored for the BIPOC community. In this episode, we delve into the wealth of insights shared by Jacquelyn, exploring the power of community, nutrition, and self-advocacy in the healing process.

From her personal experiences to witnessing a friend's traumatic birth, Jacquelyn's passion for supporting birthing individuals became her driving force. We discuss the significance of advocates and support systems during the transformative process of becoming a mother, highlighting the need for comprehensive support during the postpartum phase. Jacquelyn's journey through postpartum depression, combined with her artistic background, led her to discover the healing power of community, nutrition, and self-expression.

In this episode we dive into the world of herbs and how they can help us beat the summer heat. As moms, we're always on the lookout for natural remedies to keep our families healthy, and herbs are a great solution. We discuss the cooling properties of herbs and their ability to combat excess heat in the body.

Peppermint is a refreshing herb that aids digestion and relaxes the muscles of the digestive tract. Marshmallow root, with its gelatinous mucilage, provides relief and hydration to inflamed skin, making it perfect for sunburns. Hibiscus, with its antioxidants and vitamin C, is a popular choice for cooling down and improving blood flow. We also explore the idea of creating herb-infused popsicles as a fun and nutritious way to keep kids cool.

If you're new to herbs, don't worry. Starting with just one herb and exploring its uses can build a solid foundation of herbal knowledge. And if you're looking for more recipes and ideas, consider joining the Herb Safe Kids Cl

Welcome to The Herbalists Path Podcast! Join Sarah, a single mother from Wisconsin, on her inspiring journey to transform her family's health with herbal medicine. From skeptical teenagers embracing remedies to Sarah's tincture-making adventures, her story exemplifies the power of herbal wisdom. Discover how she gained confidence in natural remedies, empowered herself with knowledge, and shared it with loved ones. Dive into her journey and be inspired to embark on your herbal path.

Sarah's transformation began when she realized the impact of chemicals on her family's health. Living on a farm where well water got contaminated during her pregnancy, she became concerned. Her father, a former dairy farmer turned herbal enthusiast, sparked her interest in remedies. Skeptical at first, Sarah was pleasantly surprised by the effectiveness of elderberry syrup when battling pneumonia. This experience fueled her curiosity and passion for herbalism.

Sarah's journey aimed to save money, reduce reliance on prescribed pills, and empower her family with holistic health solutions. Immersed in herb and plant studies, she reconnected with nature, infusing her family's lives with growth and regeneration.

As a licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor, and a cherished member of our online herbal mentorship, Apothecary Momma, Terri shared her perspective on the lack of support for women in recovery. We explored generational trauma, societal expectations, harsh judgment, and the intensified guilt and shame faced by pregnant women with substance use or mental health issues.

Terri passionately believes in the healing potential of herbs and envisions them as a revolution in recovery, prenatal care and family care.  We also explored Terri's personal journey into herbalism, starting with health challenges leading to a hysterectomy to the transformative experience of her grandson moving in. Her study of herbs improved their well-being, and her grandson now actively participates in choosing and incorporating them into their routine.

She emphasized the importance of reclaiming ancestral knowledge lost due to societal changes and misinformation. Terri's dedication to healing others and integration of herbal medicine left a lasting impact. Our conversation deepened my admiration for her and shed light on the profound trauma experienced by many women, highlighting the need for a holistic approach to support.

I'm thrilled to have you here as we explore the wonders of herbal medicine. As I prepare to reopen Apothecary Momma, I've been reflecting on how herbalism has positively impacted my life, family, and overall well-being.

Let's talk about the magic of herbs. They always seem to appear just when we need them most, like little superheroes with their healing powers. It's not some mystical belief; I've witnessed this phenomenon countless times on my herbal medicine journey. From lungwort curing my bronchitis to chamomile calming my daughter's nerves, plants possess an innate wisdom that leaves me in awe.

Herbal medicine empowers us to take control of our well-being and navigate a flawed and corrupt healthcare system. It's about knowing when to turn to conventional medicine and when to rely on natural remedies. I want all moms to experience this profound sense of empowerment.

Passing down herbal knowledge to our children is incredibly rewarding. When my daughter confidently identifies plants for ailments or asks for specific remedies, it fills me with joy. By teaching them ancestral wisdom, we set them up for a lifetime of holistic well-being and equip them to thrive in a world where healthcare systems often fail us. Herbal medicine is not only empowering but also sustainable. By embracing natural remedies, we reduce our reliance on harmful pharmaceuticals, benefiting both our bodies and the environment. It's a small yet significant step towards a healthier future for our children and the Earth.

Join me on this magical journey through Apothecary Momma, an online herbal mentorship program designed for moms like us. Together, we'll delve into the world of herbal medicine, learn about the power of plants, and create a supportive community. Let's help herbalism #spreadlikewildflowers and ensure that every family has the tools to thrive naturally.

In this episode of The Herbalist's Path, I interview Dr. Piper Gibson, a specialist helping children with neurological disorders. Dr. Gibson shares her journey and insights into the connection between food, gut health, and neurological well-being.

Dr. Gibson's mission began when her son was diagnosed with a neurological tic. She explored alternative approaches and now empowers parents to make significant changes in their children's lives. Emphasizing the importance of real, whole foods, she advises avoiding processed temptations.

Gut health plays a crucial role in neurological disorders, and Dr. Gibson highlights the significance of high-quality protein sources for healing. She suggests food sensitivity testing and seeking holistic practitioners for personalized interventions.

Addressing misconceptions, Dr. Gibson emphasizes a comprehensive approach, considering gut health, inflammation, and genetics. Trusting intuition and questioning medical advice is vital for chronic conditions.

Parents navigating their child's chronic illness often experience overwhelming emotions. Dr. Gibson stresses the need to address guilt, shame, and grief, offering insights on mental and emotional support.

While supplements and herbs can aid healing, a healthy diet is essential. Dr. Gibson recommends essential fatty acids and herbal approaches like cannabis,

Hey there mommas! Are you ready to learn some cool first aid tips for your little ones during this summer season? Well, I've got some great news for you because in this podcast episode, I'm going to share some valuable money-saving tips along with three awesome herbs that can come in handy in various first aid situations.

First up, we have plantain - and no, I'm not talking about the starchy banana-like thingy! This plantain is a herb that can provide short-term relief from bee stings, cuts, and splinters. It can also help with respiratory infections, sunburns, and burns. But wait, it gets even cooler - its leaves can also be used as cool band-aids! Kids will love it!

Next on our list is comfrey - the herb that's loaded with allantoin, a magical medicinal constituent that can regenerate skin cells. Comfrey is perfect for healing and repairing damaged tissue from cuts and scrapes, as well as sprains, strains, and broken bones. But hold on tight, my friends, comfrey should not be used internally by those with liver health issues. Safety first, peeps!

Last but not least, we have
