The Petty Herbalist Podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

It is still BLACK HISTORY MONTH bbs!!

Y’all already know we’re continuing our series on FATS and this week we’re discussing BUTTA BABY!! Butter is a very sacred fat for many humans spiritually and nutritionally. Come on down as we uphold how we see this sacred fat as divine and how many others choose to demonize it. We also give y’all a little education on cholesterol and saturated fat, so you don’t have to keep listening to the myths that the marketers throw your way. So enjoy!

Happy Spooky Season babes!

Starting with Cane Sugar seemed like such a suitable way to start the SACRED SUGAR series. We sit with our relationship with the sacred plant, how we became separated from source, and how we can get back into a wholesome relationship! This episode gets extra petty and we LOVE to see it!
