Background Story

Have ever wondered why you have an affinity to the world of herbal plants, herbalism practices, cultivation of plants and making of herbal products? Then, you may have what I call the "herbal itch"!

I want to take you through my herbal lifestyle journey and tell you how my love of herbal lore, my passion for cooking, crafting, gift-making, led me to a surprising end-goal.

Ultimately, I have ended up being a business transformation specialist in educating others (which we call “Sherpas”) in transforming farm, ranch and other agricultural best practices and processes.

My way of giving back is to help Business Leaders, Community Managers, Consultants, Educators, Mentors, Coaches, Benefactors and Patrons in revamping / reengineering farm / ranch businesses that need to transform, or perish!

My global team of Herbal, Farm, Ranch and Other Sherpa’s are helping to transform business in order to achieve outstanding outcomes. We are active and committed members of the following organizations, natural health professionals, partners, founders and sponsors:

  • American Association of Naturopathic Physicians

  • American Herbalists Guild

  • American Herbal Pharmacopoeia

  • American Herbal Products Association

  • Institute of Women’s Health and Integrative Medicine

  • Naturopathic Education and Research Consortium

  • United Plant Savers

  • And many other Partners, Founders, and Sponsors!


Thank You!

In summary, thank you for your consideration in joining us. We're excited with the cross-pollination and interchange, which takes place, daily, on our Substack channels. We hope that you’ll cross-pollinate, mingle and collaborate with us!

ENJOY, your herbal wellness journey… and get ready to look, feel and smell your very best!
