What if the plants around you are trying to talk to you—and all you need to do is trust yourself enough to listen?

In this heart-centered episode of The Herbalist’s Path, I chat with Lauren Almquist of HeartSpace Herbals & Garden Design about the deeply personal and transformative journey of connecting with plants. From childhood rose water magic to calming the mind with Blue Vervain, Lauren shares her path and reminds us that you don’t have to “know it all” to be an herbalist—you just have to show up with curiosity, presence, and love.

🌿You’ll hear:

03:00 – Lauren’s first memory of plant magic 
07:00 – The big question: when do you get to call yourself an herbalist?
18:00 – How Lauren helps people connect with plants & trust their intuition
29:00 – Why Blue Vervain is Lauren’s go-to plant for quieting mental chatter
35:00 – Tips for growing Blue Vervain in your garden
36:00 – What to expect inside the Healing Power of Plants Summit
40:30 – Lauren’s parting words of wisdom that every plant lover needs to hear

🎧 Listen in and remember: you matter. Your voice matters. And the plants are listening too.
