Ep. 146 - Carole Guyett - Sacred Plant Initiations, Herbalism & Pregnancy

Hey everybody! Episode 146 of the show is out. In this episode, I spoke with Carole Guyett. Carole was recommend to me by my friend’s Cathy Coyle and Marta Fabregat, both of whom I interviewed, and it was serendipitous as I had just read one of Carole’s books and thought she would be a great guest. Carole is a medicine woman, herbalist, and author among other things. We sat down and had a really fascinating conversation about her background, her work as an herbalist, sacred plants and their ability to teach, Irish mythology, star beings, pregnancy, and other topics as well. I read Carole’s book The Herbalist's Guide to Pregnancy, Childbirth and Beyond when my wife was pregnant and I found it to be invaluable. I really appreciate Carole’s body of work and her views of plants and I respect her a lot. I’m sure you all will find this conversation enlightening.
