Honouring Neurodivergence: Herbal and Holistic Insights

Épisode 8

mercredi 21 janvier 2026 • Durée 57:54

In this episode of The Wild Rose Podcast, we’re joined by Dr. Terry Willard, clinical herbalist, researcher, and founder of Wild Rose College, for a thoughtful exploration of neurodivergence through an herbal and holistic lens.

Rather than viewing ADHD, dyslexia, autism traits and other expressions of neurodivergence as disorders, Terry reframes them as natural variations in sensitivity that have helped our species thrive for most of human history. Drawing on five decades of clinical practice, research, and lived experience, he shares how herbs like reishi, dietary patterns, the microbiome, and flower essences can support sensitive nervous systems without trying to “fix” who someone is.

This conversation explores why neurodivergence is especially common among herbalists and plant people, how stimulants affect ADHD brains, and why society itself may be the most important place for healing to occur.

The Wild Rose College Podcast is hosted by Megan Kendrick, registered clinical herbalist and Herbal Village Coordinator at Wild Rose College. Megan brings a holistic, integrative perspective to each conversation, exploring not only the practical uses of plant medicine, but the worldviews, philosophies, and lived experiences that shape how we relate to health, healing, and the natural world.

Whether you identify as neurodivergent, support someone who does, or are curious about how herbalism meets modern conversations around sensitivity and mental health, this episode offers insight, compassion, and grounded guidance.

Living in Alignment: Applying Ayurveda in Modern Life

Épisode 10

jeudi 19 mars 2026 • Durée 01:37:45

In this episode of The Wild Rose Podcast, we’re joined by Amber Lynn Vitale, an Ayurvedic practitioner and educator whose work brings ancient elemental wisdom into practical, modern application.

Amber shares her early beginnings in plant-based healing, from childhood herbal curiosity to formal study of Ayurveda, and how this tradition became a framework for understanding health as alignment rather than perfection. The conversation explores the doshas as windows into self-understanding, the importance of seasonal awareness and climate, and how daily rhythms like sleep, food, and bathing practices shape our vitality.

Together, we reflect on the practitioner–patient relationship as a form of medicine in itself, the concept of special potency between healer and client, and why healing cannot come through punishment or rigid control. Amber also speaks to orthorexia, wellness perfectionism, leftovers and digestive fire, and the role of relationship — with plants, with food, and with our own nature — in restoring balance.

The Wild Rose Podcast is hosted by ⁠Megan Kendrick⁠, Registered Clinical Herbalist and Herbal Village Coordinator. Through thoughtful conversations with herbalists, clinicians, and plant-centered practitioners, the podcast explores the art, science, and lived experience of herbal medicine.

jeudi 19 février 2026 • Durée 01:18:57

In this episode of The Wild Rose Podcast, we’re joined by Marie Zak, a herbalist and somatic therapist whose work weaves together plant medicine, nervous system care, and embodied healing.

Marie shares her personal journey into herbalism, shaped by sensitivity, burnout, and a deep return to the body, and how this path led her to integrate somatic relational therapy with clinical herbal practice. The conversation explores what it truly means to tend the nervous system, why so many modern health challenges live in the body rather than just the mind, and how authenticity, power, and belonging are inseparable from wellbeing.

Together, we reflect on somatic therapy, trauma and stress physiology, people-pleasing as a nervous system response, and the role of plants as allies in helping us inhabit ourselves more fully. Marie also speaks to the importance of connection with the more-than-human world, and why relationships with plants and land are essential to healing in these times.

The Wild Rose Podcast is hosted by Megan Kendrick, Registered Clinical Herbalist and Herbal Village Coordinator. Through thoughtful conversations with herbalists, clinicians, and plant-centered practitioners, the podcast explores the art, science, and lived experience of herbal medicine.
