We are back with another inspiring guest on today’s Wanderlust Herbal Podcast. In our fourth episode, I’m joined by Chris Brandwein, Soul Guide, scientist, intuitive, illustrator, author, multi-passionate, and unlikely messenger of the plant world.

Chris lives in the paradox of being part scientist, part channel, part creative. Her journey into plant spirit communication is not what you'd expect. From academic psychiatric research to intuitive plant readings, she’s someone who breaks the mould.

In this episode, we explore:

🌿 Chris’s resistance to plants growing up, despite her mother’s lifelong devotion, and how that block unexpectedly cracked open

✨ A spontaneous plant spirit awakening at a party, where plants such as parsley and basil demanded that she deliver their messages

🌀 Holding the tension of working in a psychiatric lab while secretly podcasting intuitive messages from plants

🌿 Learning to trust intuitive messages, even for people who don’t appear to identify as spiritual, and how the plants always know who’s ready

🌻 The importance of not looking up a plant’s traditional meaning until after a reading, to stay open to new messages rather than referring to the known herbal lore

🧪 Chris’s new niche supporting people in career transitions and how the plant spirits surprised her recently by following her into that work with concise, practical wisdom

🌸 Sharing a plant spirit’s magical message that came forward for me on the podcast!

And much more…

Pour yourself a cup of peppermint tea, Chris’s go-to herb for grounding & clarity, and join us for a wide-ranging, heart-opening herbal ramble through paradox, purpose, and plant wisdom.
