Nettles and Wild Authenticity with Abi Huff Clinical Herbalist and Educator

Join clinical herbalist and educator Abi Huff and Samwise Raridon, community herbalist, for a beautiful exploration of the energy of nettles. The themes of boundaries, aliveness and authenticity weave throughout the episode. Abi is currently crafting a new herbal educational offering that offers a much needed political and liberatory approach to herbalism. If you'd like to check out the classes they offer and stay updated about the unfolding of their work, you can follow them on Instagram at @_thestingingnettle_ . Much gratitude to Abi for so powerfully and vulnerably sharing their experience and wisdom.

Big thank you as well to my dear friend and song leader Debbie who recorded a short for this episode and graces us with two songs and a powerful poem about nettles. Thank you for harvesting nettles for my household as well!

Here's a link to the book that Debbie shares from in the short:
