2013: brand new year, big new plans

As I write this, my first post of the new year, there is a LOT of change and movement in the air, and I'm truly grateful.  Moving with the rooted, introspective energy of winter has allowed me to plan some exciting things for this spring.

I gave birth to Kamau in October, and have been enjoying the transition to new mom (again).  I'm getting back to seeing clients, mostly in virtual consultations via Skype, and will be on the teaching faculty this spring for Centro Ashe's Grassroots Herbal and Holistic Wellness program.  

I'm also in the final stages of preparing to launch a company, James River Herb and Spice Co.  I am so excited about what we have in store for herbal tea- and spice-lovers, as well as my journey as an entrepreneur... stay tuned. 

Speaking of staying tuned, I'm also excited to be joining the lineup of the internet radio show, Soulful Green Living!  Starting Thursday, February 7th, I'll be contributing a weekly segment focusing on natural health and healing.  This week's topic: "Medical Herbalism" with guest OlaTokunboh Obasi.

In my segment, I'll teach you how to make an old-school remedy for coughs, colds and congestion that anyone can make with a few everyday kitchen staples... tune in to hear what it is!
