By working with the plants both physically & energetically in conjunction with various energy healing & mentoring techniques, Kylee is able to guide clients through the deep inner work of unraveling, allowing & accepting Self that is crucial in their ability to not just heal, but to feel secure enough to focus on the joy of living their unresisted Truth.

The breathtaking Pacific Northwest surrounding Seattle is where Margaret Byrd calls home, but her artistic praxis spans the globe with a ‘studio’ built on mobility and designed for her nomadic soul.  Graduating from the University of Montana with a BFA in Photography, she discovered her love of mixed media and installation along the way and continues to explore both artforms in her studio today.  Wanderlust has kept Margaret traveling extensively where vast landscapes and naturally derived colors have inspired her artistic focus and visual aesthetic.  Weaving her creativity into a daily practice, Margaret is currently working with organically dyed fibers and dreaming up her next site-specific installation project.  Margaret’s work has been selected for juried exhibitions in the Pacific Northwest, shown in gallery spaces in Mexico and California and purchased for both public and private permanent collections.   Returning to the lens in 2020 as a content creator, Margaret shares her creative journey on her YouTube channel, Margaret Byrd: Color Quest, to build a community celebrating organic color through hands-on tutorials and vlog-style content all about nature's palette. 

Julia Linsteadt, of A Farm to Keep, and Brighid have a lovely conversation about slow living, becoming an herbalist, making the most of the moment. Julia Linsteadt is the creative behind A Farm to Keep, where she shares recipes, projects, and inspiration for her readers to lead a slow, creative, and content life. She resides on a small farm in the hills of Northern California with her husband and two kids. Learn more at afarmtokeep.com.
