In this episode of The Herbalist Hour, I'm joined once again by author, activist, artist, and Plant Healer cofounder Jesse Wolf Hardin.
Wolf and I explore what it means to care for ourselves while continuing to serve our communities and the wider world.
We talk about burnout, pleasure, distraction, our complicated relationships with screens, and the importance of being fully present for our finite time on this planet.
Wolf also shares why resilience isn't always enough, how seemingly small acts can affect the whole living world, and why our work should remain rooted while still being allowed to branch in new directions.
We also discuss the free Herbaria Monthly zine, Wolf's experiences with influential herbalist Michael Moore, and the upcoming Good Medicine Confluence at Ghost Ranch.
Wolf's son Wolfson even joins us for a few especially sweet moments near the end.
Thanks for tunin' in!
