S3: E8 - Sometimes We Just Need a Good Story

Sometimes we all need to step away from our busy lives and get lost in a good story. After being forced to slow down for a few days, I watched several movies that all seemed to ask the same question: What do you really want? In this episode, I share how those stories reminded me to think about what truly matters, appreciate the life I have, and make room for a little more beauty, rest, and joy. Maybe the laundry can wait… and maybe a good story is exactly what we need.

S3: E6 Why I Always Keep Comfrey Around

Comfrey is one of my favorite herbs—and one that has been part of my family’s natural wellness journey for years. In this episode, I share how I first learned about comfrey, why it earned the nickname “knit bone,” some of the controversy surrounding its use, and the many ways I’ve used it over the years. We’ll talk about homemade salves, herbal traditions, garden uses, animal feed, and a few personal stories of how comfrey has shown up in our home. I’ll also share the difference between common comfrey and Russian comfrey, plus my simple process for making comfrey-infused salve. Whether you’re new to herbs or already growing comfrey in your garden, I hope this episode encourages you to learn more about one of nature’s most versatile plants. As always, do your own research, trust your intuition, and remember—you don’t have to do everything perfectly to live a meaningful life.
