Ep 64. Plant Wisdom and Natural Healing With Folk Herbalist Amelia Andrade

About this episode

Sophia Noelle Graniela interviews folk herbalist Amelia Andrade about the wisdom of plants and natural healing practices.

In this episode of Her Journey Home , I sit down with Amelia Andrade , a folk herbalist, tender of the sacred wild, and the weaver behind Darling Dandy Botanicals. Amelia is passionate about helping people reconnect with the wisdom of bitter botanicals and the deeper relationship we can build with plants. Through her work, she reminds us that when we embrace the full flavor of life including the bitter moments we begin to live more fully, vibrantly, and wild. As a graduate of the School of the Sacred Wild with Marysia Miernowska, Amelia draws from the Wise Woman Tradition of Healing to support others in re-membering and re-weaving themselves back into wholeness. In our conversation, we explore how herbalism can become a nourishing practice that blends both the science and spirit of plants. Amelia shares simple ways to begin building relationships with herbs like dandelion and how slowing down and connecting with nature can transform the way we care for our bodies and ourselves. This conversation is a gentle invitation to reconnect with the natural world and remember that so much wisdom is already growing right outside our door.
