What do you do to get under the layer to really get down to those lower levels? Is it just follow-up questions, mindset, worldview, and how that works for you? How'd you get this job anyway? What are things like around here? What did your boss do before they were your boss? Wow did you end up with this job? Why are questions such a big part of This is Strategy? If you had to charge ten times as much as you charge now, what would you do differently? If it had to be free, what would you do differently? Who's it for, and what's it for? What is the change we seek to make? How did you choose the questions for The Strategy Deck? How big is our circle of us? How many people do I care about? Is the change we're making contagious? Are there other ways to gamify the use of questions? Any other thoughts on how questions might be gamified? How do we play games with other people where we're aware of what it would be for them to win and for us to win? What is it that you're challenged by? What is it that you want to share? What is it that you're afraid of? If there isn't a change, then why are we wasting our time? Can you define tension? What kind of haircut do you want? How long has it been since your last haircut? How might one think about intentionally creating that question? What factors should someone think about as they use questions to create tension? How was school today? What is the kind of interaction I'm hoping for over time? How do I ask a different sort of question that over time will be answered with how was school today? Were there any easy questions on your math homework? Did anything good happen at school today? What tension am I here to create? What wrong questions continue to be asked?

What are risks worth taking? What are we doing that might not work but that supports our mission? What was the last thing you did that didn't work, and what did we learn from it? What have we done to so delight our core customers that they're telling other people? How has your international circle informed your life of questions? What do I believe that other people don't believe? What do I see that other people don't see? What do I take for granted that other people don't take for granted? What would blank do? What would Bob do? What would Jill do? What would Susan do? What happened to them? What system are they in that made them decide that that was the right thing to do? And then how do we change the system? How given the state of the world, do you manage to continue to care as much as you do? Do you walk to school or take your lunch? If you all can only care if things are going well, then what does that mean about caring? Should I have spent the last 50 years curled up in a ball? How do we go to the foundation and create community action?…

Our kinship with the natural world can offer a balm for the troubled modern soul, and counsellor, somatic therapist and folk herbalist Rachel Weitz works directly with strengthening this sense of relationships with plants, earth and spirit. After quite an amazing journey of apprenticeships and study that span a counselling degree, a 4-year stint in the Peruvian amazon with the Shipibo peoples, and a 6-year apprenticeship with shamanic healer and herbalist Ann Drucker she has created a healing modality she calls “animistic healing arts” that weaves all these threads together. She works with her clients and to restore the lost sense of kinship with the greater intelligence that is within and round us - the plants, the ancestors, nature herself and guides. Her aim is the support folks in facilitating their own direct healing process in connection with these guides and more-than-human relationships. In this episode, Stephanie and Rachel explore how plants can be powerful allies in our healing journeys beyond the physical, the spirit properties of hawthorn for opening us to grief, what an old world apprenticeship really looks like, and the wonder of being in the circle of care of the plant world.

Growing, cooking and sharing food is an important source of connection and fulfillment for Janelle Coggan. From picking veggies with her grandmother as a child, to making tomato chutney for all her neighbours to sharing seeds with the postman, it’s a way of caring for herself and others. Nelle has 40 years of experience as an educator, instructor, and practitioner in Kinesiology, Neuro-Linguistic Programming and Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy and also holds a master’s degree in special education. Nelle’s own lived experience of childhood trauma and subsequent extensive studies in trauma informed practice has supported her to develop her empathic skill set to a highly tuned frequency enabling her clients to move through their issues lovingly supported through each tiny step. During our chat, Nelle shares how self care has become non negotiable for her since suffering from burn out a few years ago. She explains how tuning in and responding to not only her physical needs but also her emotional and spiritual needs became paramount. We agree that in our busy lives, we've forgotten how to be still and the value of allowing our minds to have some space to be quiet. How long has it been since you’ve allowed yourself to daydream? **CONNECT** Connect with Nelle here You can connect with JESS via instagram and facebook here and here , and join her newsletter community here . **BUY ME A CUPPA** If you liked the episode and want more, a cuppa fuels my work and time, which is given for free.

A powerful and intriguing tribute to Earth Poet, Animist and Herbalist Stephen Harrod Buhner, featuring the magnificent Skye Cielita Flor. In this episode, Stephanie and Skye discuss the potency of SHB’s works, their impact on their own lives and teaching styles, and break some of the key points he covers in his book ‘Plant Intelligence and the Imaginal Realms’. Skye is currently offering a transformative 10 week online study group focusing on the teachings of his book. The next group starts 17th January and sold out in one week after the release date in November - for good reason!

See below. https://events.humanitix.com/plant-intelligence-and-the-imaginal-realm-x10-week-online-and-in-person-study-group-h49rem6b Stephen Harrod Buhner offers a unique approach to understanding the relationship between humans and the natural world, highlighting the importance of integrating rationalist perspectives with mystical animist practices. Stephanie and Skye discuss sensory gating, how we develop the ability to sense and feel the natural world without psychedelics, and the crucial bridge between science and mysticism that SHB offers us: Eco-Animism, or Bio-Animism.

Today I interview the inspiring Val Iswaszko who set up the famous Mullum Herbals in 1996 with his wife Annette Morgan. Mullum Herbals has been incredibly influential in the herbal medicine community in Australia, and has been mentioned on many occasions in this podcast. In this interview, Val gives insight into how Mullum Herbals was created and shares about the motivations behind this valuable business. He shares about the internship/clinic supervision opportunities that he generously offers to university students. We discuss the power of Andrographis, patient compliance VS dealing with bitter/foul tasting brews, the downfall of the industry mindset VS the community mindset in information sharing in Australia. Val shares about percolation tinctures and how naturopaths and herbalists can be running a more affordable dispensary by dispensing their own tinctures. We discuss the importance of sourcing local herbs and if importing herbs then ensuring they are high quality. Val reveals that is has been difficult to find local herbal medicine growers to supply his dispensary (get in touch if you are interested) although he would like to supply more local herbs than what he does currently. Together we dream weave a future where plants are the people's medicine, and everyday people are educated and educate each other about the medicine growing all around them. We envision more grassroots herbal education spaces and Val shares his plans for creating a 'Mums and Bubs" group which meets regularly under the guidance of a naturopath and receives empowering information which creating a support network. It was an honour to interview this herbal elder which I have heard affectionately referred to as the "grandfather of herbal medicine in Mullumbimby". He has created a wonderful legacy for future generations. *SHOWNOTES* Mullum Herbals & Bruns Herbals: https://mullumherbals.com.au/ IG: https://www.instagram.com/mullumherbals/?hl=en *BUY ME A CUPPA* If you liked the episode and want more, a cuppa fuels our work and time, which is given for free.

How can I create a life that puts my energy and my health at the forefront of every single question that I ask, every single decision that I make? How am I caring for myself in every single moment? These are some of the questions Claire Murray and I ponder during this wide ranging and thoughtful chat. Claire knew from when she was 16 years old that she wanted to be a Naturopath. After seeing a practitioner in her teens, she decided she wanted to be able to sit across from someone and know she could help them like she had been helped. Claire is now a naturopath, herbalist and medicine maker based on Gubbi Gubbi country/ the Sunshine Coast with over 15 years experience within the natural medicine industry. Combining this with her own lived experience with chronic illness, Claire now creates herbal medicines and educational offerings, and works with her patients, from a place of deep empathy & listening, consideration for the plants & Earth, and reverence for each person's path and health. Claire endeavours to bring both intuition and science to all she offers, where she aims to support people in alchemising what is painful, into healing, new insights & a deeper connection to self & Earth. Claire lives in a body that requires her to be very aware of the whispers that signal she needs to pay attention. She describes self care beautifully as a constant little tending. And has realised that caring for herself needs to be woven tightly into her everyday. Claire’s deeply connected with the natural world and shares how she feels a pull to be around plants- to grow them, to hold them in her hand, to smell them, to taste them. She’s passionate about anchoring into her bio region and understanding more about the medicine that grows around her. This deep connection prompts questions like- where do I end and where does nature begin? How can I consider the concept of individual health without thinking about the collective health of the community in which I live and the ecosystem and bio region in which I reside? This is a thought provoking conversation, which I think you’ll really enjoy! **SHOW NOTES** Claire mentions Mathew Woods and his beautiful books- you can read more about Mathew’s work and purchase his books here Claire shares her experience of working with Tulsi with Heidi Wedd, you can learn more about Heidi’s work and connect with her here **CONNECT** Connect with CLAIRE here: https://www.naturopathclairemurray.com https://www.instagram.com/theclairemurray You can connect with JESS via instagram and facebook here and here , and join her newsletter community here . **BUY ME A CUPPA** If you liked the episode and want more, a cuppa fuels my work and time, which is given for free.

Is herbalism important postpartum? YES! Is the postpartum period sacred? YES!! Herbs have supported our grandmothers and our grandmothers' grandmothers throughout the ages during the tender and sacred time of the postpartum period. Herbs help the milk come, help the womb return, help the mother's heart stay steady and help the restoration of life force, blood and nutrients that a mother needs after growing a person inside her. This episode is very personal as I'm due to give birth on the day it's released. This photo is me with my daughter 3 years ago - the day after giving birth to her. This time out of time is precious, as it marks the return to the world for the mother who had to travel so far to give birth, and also the arrival in the world of the baby. It is a time when the mother needs epic amounts of support and nourishment, and who better to offer this than the plants who have walked beside us for aeons? This episode covers herbs and strategies to support the four pillars of postpartum thriving: rest, nourishment, soothing and healing. In this episode I give special mentions to Nettle, Motherwort, Lemon Balm and Ladies Mantle.

What happens when we nurture a connection with our inner child? When we treat the imagination as a source of inspiration and keep our eyes, ears and hearts open? Alyson Maier has had a deep connection with the plant world since early childhood when she would wait expectantly for the May bush in her garden to flower each year and then gather blooms to create a circle for her daily meditation. Like many of us, through childhood, Alyson was told “it’s just your imagination”- as if it was false or unimportant- but like she says- what if the Wright brothers never imagined flying a plane? Luckily, Alyson continued to treasure her imagination and today has a deep connection with the spirit world. Alyson’s a Naturopathic Herbalist, children's author, Andean Medicine Carrier (Nusta Pampomasayoq Paqo), and award-winning herbal tea curator based on the Sunshine Coast of Australia. She’s passionate about helping people reconnect with their traditional origins to rediscover the medicine within. During our chat, Aly shares her passion for the role of storytelling in preserving herbal knowledge and the transformative power of nature in our lives. **CONNECT** Connect with ALYSON and buy her beautiful books here: https://www.greenheartherbals.com/about https://www.instagram.com/alysonmaiernaturopath/ You can connect with JESS via instagram and facebook here and here , join her newsletter community here (where you’ll be the first to hear of our upcoming Christmas gift themed workshop with Jess’s 11 year old apprentice) and buy her handcrafted herbal products here . **BUY ME A CUPPA** If you liked the episode and want more, a cuppa fuels my work and time, which is given for free.
