The Party in My Plants Podcast
My lady Tricia Huffman a.k.a. The Joyologist a.k.a. affirmation queen a.k.a. the shitty thought police (OK, enough of the a.k.a.s, we get it…) is my latest and greatest guest. The woman is more super than a superfood itself and as such, this lil’ chat was even more invigorating than my post-run heaped-with-greens smoothie. Tricia has a background as a sound engineer, has spent so much of her life on the road and pivoted her whole lifestyle to be one focused on joy, positive affirmations, cultivating career success and happiness, and staunchly askewing the word “should” and all that it...

202. Less stuff, More Adventure! Practical Minimalism with Miranda Anderson
The Party in My Plants Podcast
This week on the pod is all about less stuff, more adventure, more freedom and the MOST fun chats with Miranda Anderson. ICYMI, I had a major move last year where Jesse, Tommy and I carted our stuff away from tiny apartments in NYC and into an amazing home in the woods where plants grace my presence the minute I walk out the front door. Behind the scenes on this whole transition was Miranda Anderson, established blogger and author of whose book I listened to on repeat at least three times. In this talk we discussed how your stuff is holding you back from adventure, why practical minimalism is...

The Party in My Plants Podcast

199. Embracing REALISTIC Positivity (alt title: the “shades of purple” episode which you’ll understand when you press play) with Dr. Lauren Cook!
The Party in My Plants Podcast
My friend, used to be best known as “The Sunny Girl,” and let me tell you, I’m probably not the only one who needs a lil’ ray of sunshine in this crazy, confusing and turbulent calendar year. This talented and wise gem of a human is a therapist, a speaker and a published author whose main goal is to help other people live according to their values. (Easy pea-sy, slice of carrot cake right?) Way back in the day when I first met Lauren, I picked her brain and she was generous enough to share her beautiful ideas with me. I had to have her on and share her wisdom with her sweet cat...
info_outlineMy friend Jenny Sansouci has been in this wellness game for a loooooong time. I pat myself on the back for being going planty before it was really cool in 2008, but Jenny started her own platform way back in 2006. Not that it’s a comparison game. We know Jenny now as the brains and passion behind Healthy Crush, and now the author of her new spectacular book, The Rebel’s Apothecary: A Practical Guide To The Healing Magic of Cannabis, CBD and Mushrooms, and as an amazing messenger on how to support the health of those dealing with cancer based on her experience of being right there with her father, CBD, shrooms and cannabis, research and hope in tow, as he’s battled pancreatic cancer.
Jenny wasn’t didn’t always have a crush on health. What blew my mind is how Jenny overcame issues with alcohol, party drugs and a dusk-til-dawn party lifestyle. Way back when, she was the first person to dismiss meditation and she used to show up at work hungover. (Which sounds like my own personal nightmare.) Through hard work, an obsession with information and perseverance, she changed her lifestyle and became the well-known wellness gal she is today. Unlike me, Jenny is a research fanatic and I applaud her dedication to learning directly from scientists, doctors, mycologists, herbalists, and so many incredible experts in the cannabis and mushroom fields and then sharing it all with stories, so we less research-inclined can eat it all up!
Press play to hear:
- How mushrooms and CBD can help you heal
- How Healthy Crush became what it is today
- An incredible story on quitting drugs, alcohol and the party lifestyle
- How to support a loved one through cancer treatment
- The Rebel’s Apothecary: Who it’s for, why it’ll help, why it’ll change your life
